Tberone.ail held at the Parker church. Wp paid a visit to the farm of I Wakeman last week and inspected taajt Silo which he built last. fall, and wir say for the benefit of those inquiring that it. is a success, the fodier i-oaiw^ out in good shape and is relished by the stock to which it is fed. Although heing b'uiltas an experiment, and .soma* what in a hurry, consequently srteae mistakes were made which w\: may profit thereby. It wap built of one inchioards. 12 inches wide, double boarded and broke jo nts with tared paper between. Tiie joist are 4x4 icantling 2 feet apart, but. not l«eing stiff enough to spring out, allowing air to enter the ;Silo, and consequently iojuri ng^he ensilage somewhat. They should be 2x8 or 2x10 inches and not o"er 18 inches apart. The expense would not be much and tho saving would be great. The Silo was covered with marsh hay and loose boards; they think it should be covered better as it would keep in a better condition. Tbe , Silo is 9x22 feet, inside measure, and is all in one body. Mr. W. would advise making it into two or three departments as the fodder could be fed better, being fresh and warm, but where so lnrge a body has to be fed from, it seasons and cools and is not so go„d to feed. It was filled early in ^September with ensilage fodder, cut green arid put in without even wilting, and was cut fine with an ensilage cutter, the juice remaining in the feed which has a tarty taste which the stock seem to rHish. They are not feeding qnite a bushel to the head as they are feeding other "slop feed," but think tbat would be about a feed if they were feeding any other dry feed, snen as bay or straw. Altogether the thing is a success, and in these days of cornbusker*, it will be tbe thing to keep the fodder in after husking, as it is said to heat some; but in a silo like the one spoken of it would not only keep bnt improve in quality. •1; 1 •" • ^ " ' I f !

NO person should go away from home to purchase a thing unless it is strk-tly necessary. It takes a good deal ot "cheek" to ask a home merchant to trust you for good-i. when you will go away from home and pay cash for everything that you buy. Keep your money 1:1 your oWn town and then it can not help but boom: "We would advise our readers to buy nothing from traveling jewelers, who stop in town for f. few days, and are offering something for nothing. In nine cases out of ever t^n ihe person who bays from these individuals tret left. Home merchants will not knowingly handle poor goods; they want your future trade, but the st ranger that is her? to-day and away to-morrow, simply wants your ca*h for which he gives poor goods in return. Pin this in your hat, it will save you money." Every merchant that has been a judicious advertiser knows absolutely that advertising pays, and pays big. But the mast successful merchant never lets up in advertising as soon as the dull season sets in. The live merchant does not care to be idle and let his goods get shelf worn, so when trade slacks up he looks over his stock and prepares for a series of special sales '>n goods that he would rather get ihe money for than to carry them over lor a year. Then he spreads printers ink over the people's newspapers showing alluring offers that result in keeping his store full of custoiers. In fact, while his neighbor and his neighbor's clerks are sleeping on the counters, the hustler is continually studying as to what offers to makeand then advertising them before the people with the result that his business is always booming. ^ga$a£j£. aa» let atV, CBBUTTIAAT saowaT.

A monstrous corporation, known a s t h e American meat company, baa just spruug into existence, and iu a short time will begin oiRirutions. It ia capitalized for $23,- 000,000, a n d from the start it expects to be a toruiidable rival of the " b i g four'' of Kansas City aud Chicago, composed of Phil Armour, Swift lii-os., Nelson Morris and Hammond & Co. T h e president of t h e uew com e r a Is J. H. Flagler, president of the cotton oil trust, and ex-Assistant Secretary of the T r e a s u r y Charles K. Coou is secretary. The offices a r e at 45 Hroadway. T h e company propose to raise their own cattle, do thoir o w n slaughtering and conduct their uwn market. Middlemen will be dune away with, so that the consumer is to be given tho benefit of middlemen's prulit. T h e feeding-yards and slaughter-house will be iu Kansas City, aud the r a n c h e s a r c situated all over the far weat. About half of the stock of t h e company is t a k e n by persons who put in cattle ranches and other proiHirty, instead of money. The i orripany now owns 1,VX>,IX>0 acres of ranch land, which is divided iuto 17 runohes, I n a short time the company will purchase land enough to have M ranches iu all. Upon ranches already in their possession, there are 'goo.000 head of graded cattle. A number of the stockholders owuod ranches iu New Mexico, upon t h e Mexico border. They pooled their property, amounting to ,>1,(K ti i ores, and have purchased 1S'J,S00 acres of table luud across the river in Chihuahua, Mexico. Tlie pooled property went in a', trom $1'2 to $'.'0an acre, and tho Mexican property was obtained, projectors say, on guod terms. It consisted entirely of ranches, whose owners have become stockholders. Geo. H, Hammond, jr., w h o is to be the general manager,' entered by pooling the A'csteru dressed beef company's slaughter houses at Kansas City, wiiii 1.000 acres, and 12 markets ia Haitimore. Fifty miles from Kansas City lO.ifc'O uercs of grazing land have been purchased. The idea is to ship the cattle to the grazing farm, fatten them there and ship t o Kansas City, where they will be slaughtered, aud from that point to distribute them in refrigerator ours to the eastern markets. Thu scheme does not end there, since it eoatemples the establishment of m a r k e t s in eastern cities and the sale of t h e meat direct to consum TS. T h e former dismal failure of Mnr,|uis de Mores does not disma.\ the projectors. They say that Dakota is too eobl for ranching. at Wilmington, 1 in Hay City tho of tho Chnpin he proposes to sh p fi") n tli it mine this Marriage and Ilivorif • Carroll D.

HOWELL. From the KepabUcsn. Bert Bailey has purchased the old Goodrich livery barn nearly opposite the Commercial hotel, and will run a livery stable. So far as reports have been received from various pails of the county the sentiment is largely in favor of a new court bouse for Livingston county. Livingston county is now paying over |300 per year for rent for the various county offices which amount may be saved by the building of a new court bouse. The pest house—or mote euphoniously, the village hospital—is empty, Oliver Anderson having been removed last week. Of course the building ha* been completely disinfected, and no vestage of small-pox remains in Howell. Undoubtedly the people of Livingston county will have the glad privilege of voting uoon the question of a new court house, at the spring election this year. We hope to be able to announce such as a fact next week. Our county is sadly in need of a court house and the people are ready to build the same. Mrs. Michael Taft, aged86years,died at her home in Oceola on Saturday last. The funeral took place from the Parker church in Oceola Monday and was attended by a large number of friends. Deceased came to Michigan in 1841 and was one of the oldest residents of the county. Nine children—five boys and four girls—survive her. She was an estimable lady and a large circle ot friends and relatives mourn their loss.

TOO LATE. h » a *.v i A Story of St, Valentine's Day. C H A I T K R IVr. The Squire did not put t h a t embarrassing question to t h e h a r o n ; h e did not need; the information required was given voluntarily. T h e next morning be asked his guest if h e should like to see h i s stud, of whit.-h lie wus not a little proud, and deservedly so—the Nettlethorpe stud hud a wide reputation. " B u t you don't hunt, I believe?*' 1 e added. T h e Baron -said h e did not, but that he knew a little about horse-flesh, and did love a fine horse. Smoking cigars, t h e gentleman proceeded to t h e stables. T h e Squire was not quick at observation, and, even when observant of sumo unaccountable trifles, ho was not given to put two a n d two together; they simply puzzled him for the time being, and then h e was a p t to forget they hud occurred. To-day he was struck by the extensive knowledge of matters pertaining to horseflesh evinced by hisguest, and t h o u g h t it odd, considering t h a t h e had disapproved of any sporting proclivities. Then h e remembered that he had been in t h e Prussian (Juards, and ceased to wonder. In a little while however he was again forced to notice a further and more marked discrepancy. In an animated discussion with t h e Squire's" stud-groom, the Boron's broken English seemed suddenly repaired, a very unmistakable cockney vernacular making itself evident. Every now and again, though, he seemed to recollect his part, and diverged into t h e imperfect pronunciation of a foreigner. Then , t h e Squirt; thought it Odd t h a t a foreigner *•»! a gentleman, ostensibly so Ignorant of t h e English language, should be so familiar with t h e technical terms of a trainer's stable; these he not only understood, but applied correctly. Tho Squire expressed his surprise. "My fader," replied t h e Baron, lapsing into his broken speech—"my fader ^had a very' line stud too, and always English grooms, Yen 1 was a small boy I did ride like one jockey:" and he laughed. His host was satisfied. " M a d a m Kcnnett, she did tell me h e r broder had splendid horses,'1 he continued, " a n d asked me to come and see dem; so, sis I did always hear how hospitable de English Squire was, I did come now." Squire Nettlethorpe. was more than satisfied; he was intensely relieved. Tho situation h a d explah, >d itself; but ho must warn his sister to be more careful with foreigners for the future. Then, feeling that he had harbored unworthy thovights of the stranger, he intended to treat him to a piece of gratuitous confidence. "Stub,1 1 ho said to the slud-groom. " s h o w the Baron the colt.'" With a reluctant air the groom obeyed. " F o r do Derby?" said the Baron. T h e Squire nodded. " I ' v e kept him quiet," he said. " I think he'll bo a surprise;" and then he sketched tho splendid, animal's pedigree. Unwittingly he made an omission, which, with unerring quickness, t h e Baron detected and corrected. "You know It!" ho said, startled. T h e Baron saw his mistake. "Everybody knows Dickey-bird," he said hastily, naming tho colt's greatgreat- grandsire. "My father did breed from him. W h a t you call this one?" " N e t t l e , " replied t h e Square, almost hesitatingly. "If I voa one betting man I know w h a t I should do;'1 and he went up to t h e colt and felt him with a hand evidently used to t h e office. " I do not believe dat in all England t h e r e is Buch a beauty," h e said; and then he asked some experienced questions concerning the stable management, which t h e groom answered with roserv^. They h a d proceeded Rome yards on t h e i r return to t h e Hall, w l i p t h e B a r o n suddenly turned on his heel, Baying h e had loft his stick in t h e stable, and would fetch it. The Squire waited for him, standing still. T h e stick was found behind the door, w h e r e t h e Baron had left it, and Stubbs produced it. T h e men looked each other in t h e eye steadily, t h e stifkfhi t h e groom's grasp. ^ ' "What game is this yotf a r e up t o ?

" T h e transfer was made under t h e conditions laid down, a n d t h e Boron rejoined his host, accounting for t h e t i m e he h a d detained h i m by stating t h a t the stick had got a m o n g the straw, and he h a d difficulty in finding it. Btsfore t h e end of t h e week, t h e Baron h a d established' h i s footing in Nettlethorpe Hall as first favorit'j with all save Nell and Janet. Andrew declared him o good fellow, and invited him to his quarters iu London, a n d the Squire pressed him to return a t no distant day. Nothing had been said about the brooch; a t J a n e t ' s express desire, no allusion was made to t h e Baron on the subject; but, t h e night before his dep a r t u r e , h i s adieux being 1.11 made p r e p a r a t o r y to an early start in the morning, he found on his toilet-table a small parcel containing the trinket. No sign or word accompanied it; it was there by itself, to speak for itself. T h e Baron was not sensitive. His attentions to J a n e t had answered the end for which they had been paid—namely, intimate relations with the family. He had seen that they were not acceptable from a serious point, oven had he intended them seriously, which he did not; t h e prize, he said t o himself, was not costly enough. So he put away the brooch as future stock -in-trade. During his brief stay a t t h e Hall, he had picked up some valuable pieces of information outside stable-matters. Nothing had escaped his ears or his notice. Nell's little love alTair with h e r cousin, h e r anonymous Christmas gift, h e r supposed disappointment of t h e autumn, all were known to him. He had listened to good purpose, and, being quick of apprehension, h a d understood allusions meant only to contain meanings to t h e ears addressed. W h a t remained to be told he drew from t h e Squire in apparently inadvertent questioning, and from Mrs. Kennett, who was apt to be eotidential if well led up. A few days after the Baron's departure the twins returned home. Randall, a t his sister's request, said nothing of the anonymous gift t h e latter had received on Christmas morning; hut Nell, to whom unnecessary concealment was abhorrent, took a private opportunity to display it to h e r mother, requesting that she would not mention the circumstance to a n y one, with the exception of h e r father. On taking it from its case, Nell found it was broken, two of t h e links having snapped across. She was distressed, far more than the occasion seemed to warrant. ••It must have been aunt Kennett," she said. " S h e asked to see it one morning; I took it to her, and. when she was examining it, Janet called me out of the room. When 1 'c:une back 1 found it neatly done up in the case, and lying on the table. Aunt was not t h e r e ; so I took it away, and put it into my box without examining it." " I t could not have been your aunt, Nell,"(exclaimed Mrs. Thanet. "Some one mpst have conn; in iu her Absence, opened t h e case from curiosity, and, handling the chain roughly, broken it your servant probably." " O r it might have been the maid who helped me to pack," said Nell. "1 forgot to lock my box when I went down to dinner, and >;hc may have re-"' turned to my room from curiosity, ami so broken it. We packed t h e night before as we left early the next morning. Oil, I am so sorry it is so unlucky'"-- and she burst into tears.. l l e r m o t h e r t o o k the girl's hands and held them to her breast, Her eyes too were moist, sinl her voice tender wit!* sympathy. ••My child," she said almost in a whisper, "I did not ask you for your confidence. I knew why you withheld it. You had nothing definite to tell me; but a mother's eye is keen, Nell, and 1 read year secret. Even now I do not ask you to tell me all that h a s passed between you. I too have had my young days, and I know there a r e iliings too delicate for speech, things so fragile speech would break them. But I do ask you one question, Nell, and you will answer me truly, that I know. Did he ;isk of you any pledge?" A faint " N o , " was t h e answer Nell gave. "Do you consider yourself pledged to h i m ? " " Y e s , " was the reply this time, lowly spoken, but firm. "Do you believe that h e will return some day and ask you to be his wife?"' " Y e s , " again answered tho girl, looking suddenly up into h e r mother's eyes half defiantly, as if rebutting an unworthy suspicion, and yet not wholly with t h e ring of confidence in h e r voice. "You are young. Nell dear. You imfy have mistaken fancy for love: for, when you do love, you will not love unworthily, and a fancy is easily set aside. " M o t h e r darling," said t h e girl, drooping h e r eyes, " i t is love, not fancy- Love with me is love for evermore." "Even if von knew him to be unworthy?" "Even if I knew him. to he unwort h y . " "Nell, would von be false to yourself?". ^•'•No; only too true, mother. Love la no p a r t of moral nature, to be evolved from virtue; it is a thing apart. How it comes no one yet has told; but. once come, no one yet has cost it out—a possession if you will— but dominant, and vital beyond time." The girl spoke calmly; b u t h e r eyes glflwed, and h e r mouth had a line of will which h e r mother read aright. Sho quailed for h e r child; b u t she saw her duty, and with a boating h e a r t she performed it. One tender word first sho spoke, "You would make one effort, darling, to forget, would you not? Your pride would help you. You would not waste your youth In vain regrets; you would up and do." Nell'B eyes took a troubled look, as of vague apprehension. She answered gently. "I should never try to forgot, mother; don't you know a sorrow's arown ot sorrows is remembering happier jut, If It were possible that , my pride ahsjvld afatns* vsda regrets; aabVBf* I should *tod semetalnf better to r do than pine in a *a»oated grange*." She triad * aalte, bus bar Upaqolt* ered. "Muabui 1 1 baBavcta work.* Then the mother went silently to her desk, aad laid before her child first the copy of the letter she wrote to Lyra Leslie, and then his answer. With a face pale as the moonbeams, and scared eyes, Nell read the document*. Mrs. Thanet's was simple and dignified. Even as her heart burned within her, Nell held her mother blameless if not wholly justified. It ran thus- - "My Dear Mr. Leslie,—May I ask you, if circumstances forbid you to follow your iu clinutlous to the ouly ultimatum her parents would approve, to cease the particular attentions you have lately paid our daughter. I have uo reason to suppose that you have made yourself peculiarly acceptable to her; but youth i» Impressionable, and I would spare her unnecessary pain. Wellvein too uuialla community, and a young girl's name is u delicate commodity. "Yours very truly, "MAUV THANET." The gentle a n d , a l m o s t portentous bringihg-up of h e r mother had in a measure prepared Nell for t h e blow Lyon Leslie's letter dealt. Like a young sapling she bent to t h e blast, every leaf trembling, every fibre quivering. The rebound was sudden—a spring back as from a n inner force; b u t in after time the perfect growth would ever bear the traces of the storm it had weathered. Nell's nature, though sympathetic with others., was partially independent of sympathy in itself. In h e r lightest hours she had been reticent of h e r own inner feelings, and in her grave moods, though often the recipient of the hopes and fears of doubting hearts, carefully enveloping her own in a reserved silence, not her most intimate friends, sav J a n e t Kcnnett. and she b u t in part, h a d ever dared to question her. The letters fell from Nell's hands. "My poor child?" whispered h e r mother, the tears rolling down her cheeks. But Nell's eyes were dry. Her eyes had deepened into night, they seemed to have suddenly sunk in their cavities. She spoke; h e r voice was cold and hard. It # a s nearly live o'clock, and she heard the servant coming to draw the curtains and light the lamp. Her senses were keen and clear. As she spoke, she bent and kissed h e r mother on either cheek, so brushing away the tears. " I would be alone, m o t h e r , " she said. "Good night. You will tell father—what you will." She went to the door slowly, as one walking in an uncertain light;' b u t h e r step was lirm. It seemed to Mrs. Thanet as if blood were oozing drop by drop from h e r heart, so intense was h e r sympathy with h e r child in this h e r hour of agony. Nell's hand was on the door. With a ^udden recollection, she turned back, went up to the table, replaced the locket and chain in its case, and, not trusting herself with a g l a n c e ' a t h e r mother, left the room, Mrs. Thanet thought, like a shadow. CHAPTER V. For once in his life Mr. T h a n e t had, in the matter of his children, to yield to his wife; but not without a battle. Randall was to return to his studies at University College at the end of the week, and Nell was to accompany him in h e r deliberately chosen capacity of medical student. She had decided to be a woman-doctor. But not even to h e r husband did Mrs. Thanet confide h e r daughter's motive, nor the circumstances which had led up to h e r decision. She h a d accepted Nell's determination as sound. She r e e o g n b o l the fact the girl in a few words stated, that work of an imperative and absorbing nature alone could save her mind from preying upon itself, and prevent h e r nature from drifting into hardness and recklessness. " J u s t at present l a m indifferent to the wliole human species," she said, "save my own family; so do not give me credit for t h e wish for a vicarious life; b u t t h e science of medicine is a noble one, and I shall love it for itself, and in time it will humanize me once more. Randall does not like it: but even he is interested, and, perhaps, when wo come to study together he will apply himself in greater earnest, and so better." And it was this argument t h a t ' gave Mrs. Thanet the victory over h e r husband. W h e t h e r Nell would pass a good curriculum or not, or would even pass at all, seemed a matter of perfect indifference to Mr. Thanet. If however her "fad" was likely to be of service to Randall, there was an end to serve in letting her take what h e considered an unwomanly step: and he would give his consent. Professions in commerce for his sons, and husbands for his daughters, were Mr. Thanet's moral responsibilities to his children: in these, until the episode of the, twins, he had acquitted himself satisfactorily. To Randall the news of his sister's sudden determination was an altogether joyful surprise, He pledged himst.'.' f o increasing exertion to his father, and even went so far as to declare that, now Nell was to share his studies, lie would rather follow the medical profession than any other in the world. And Mr. Thanet, more than satistied, gave his wife carle blanche to make liberal arrangements for their daughter's comfort in London. The nurse who had been in the family for over a score of vears was to aecompany the twins, and to have Nell under her special charge. She WHS a Scotchwoman, Mclan by name, and a native of Mrs. Thanet's county, shrewd and faithful and of sober years, being over fifty. In a vory short time the trio had Bottled, comfortably down in a small sulto df rooms in Uower Street, and t h e twins were busy at work. Before appearing among h e r fellow-students, Nell paid a quiet visit to a hair-drosscr, from whose sanctum s h e issued shorn of h e r woman's glory, h e r abundant a n d wavy hair. W h a t remained was a crop, just long enough to curl slightly up all arotrnd the neck, and to fall, as her brother's did, in a large lock over her foeehead, toor&ing her eyebrows. BeartdJ opposite to each other at night in their little study, the shaded lamp between, their likeness to each other was simply startling.

F e r a a f e i t w W not altogether tmpleaaiag to Mm. Kennett The lady had noticed with no favorable eye h-.r son's evident a d - miration of h i s beautiful cousin. S h e bad other views for him; the baronetcy to which h e was heir would be a barren honor, and h e r own fortune, though considerable, when it had been mulcted of portions to her d a u g h t e r s would not suffice to restore dignity t o a title now associated with poverty and a menial profession. It was t h e r e - fore incumbent on t h e future Baronet to marry well; money in t h e fir^t place, b u t family ai.so, if possible. • » • . * * • Lyon I^eslie had joined his regiment, the — t h , slationod in London. B u t his brother-officers all declared that h e was not t h e good company he had be«u. He. was hasty too, an unusual thing with the easy-going, self-indulgent Leslie. Some ventured to hint a t country quarters, and to ask leave to look a t his late additions to his photograph album; they did not find it convenient to touch on t h a t ground again. '1 uc officer who had relieved him in his- recruiting appointment at T h o r p e had written to him once or twin.-, detailing such gossip as h e thought was likely to be of interest to his predecessor. It was iu this way that Lyon heard of Nell's Christmas visit to Netthorpo Hall, and then he called to mind t h e connection between his own family and that of the Kennetts; ho was conscious of a tame regret that h e had not remembered it sooner. If only there had been fortune, it might have been possible then; the .Kennett baronetcy was important enough on paper, and really, after all, such a girl she was like a queen - needed very few adventitious aids, he was sure now h e remembered, he used 1o feel she had good blood in her veins. After all, race never did die out. It might degenerate, b u t ever and again it asserted itself in a perfect specimen. It had done so in the case of beautiful Nell Thanet. Well, he would think over it — time enough; she wouldn't soon forget, that lie knew; and there was no knowing what might turn up. Then he hoped with a sudden fear, that a certain little note might never reach Nell's eyes, h e wished he had not been so hasty: b u t he hated m a n e u v e r i n g mothers. With these thoughts chasing each other with uncertainty and regret through his brain, Lyon Leslie strolled into his ehib, and ordered luncheon. At a'table close to his own were seated two men, one a Captain Barnes,known to him rather intimately. They were about to lunch, and Captain Barnesasked Lyon to join them, which h e did. Captain Barnes then introduced his companion to Lyon as t h e Baron von Melkenburg. " T h e Baron had come to buy racing stock." Ike said: " h e h a s some good hits already, I think the conversation became horsy. The Baron, although he had made no sign, h a d at once recognized in his new acquaintance t h e gay recruiting officer of tho little town of Thorpe, known to him well by reputation, and the haughty Miss Nell Thanet's lover. The horsy talk led the Huron to Nettlethorpe Hall. He hud been staying there (luring Christmas, he said, by special imitation, had gone to see Squire's stables, knew Mrs. Kennett and h e r three pretty daughters at Dresden, had nearly lost his heart to the youngest, Mees Janet; feared though, he was not of constant mind, for he fell head over heels in love with h e r pretty cousin Miss Nell Thanet. He found out in lime however, that she was only a tlirt; he caught h e r one night in the, conservatory with h e r cousin, kissing him, not under the mistletoe, but under the rose. She gave him however a very preUy souvenir, and he took from his waistcoat- pocket a tiny box, opened it, a n d g a i ' e it to Captain Barnes to inspect. "You're a pretty fellow for girls to give love-tokens to." he said, laughing, as he took out a tiny link of delicate workmanship a n d examined it curiously. "Read de inside," said the Banm, with a sly glance at Lyon, who, with a quickened eye that betokened mischief, was watching the box. " . H n n a forget." read Captain Barnes, passing the tiny ring on to Lyon. "Did Miss Thanet give you t h a t — that link?" he asked. "Yes, surely, 1 did say she did;" and the Baron replaced the box in his pocket. With a violent effort, Lyon restrained himself. His caution, T w e r long at fault, whispered to him how compromising a dispute with a so called Baron would be, a man who already was a little more than suspected to be an adventurer. H i s common sense, on which he prided himself, also told him that he h a d no right to be angry, no manner of right to question Nell Thanet's acton. Lyon Leslie was, if not base, yet hollow of heart; it never occurred to him to doubt the Baron's statement. " S h e is gone to be one female medicine," addeil that gentleman. " I did see h e r in (lower Street this day; but she did not see me. I did take good care of dat. She was dressed like one boy, and h e r hair it was cut like one mop. Ve have woman doctors in Germany too—dey a r c ver' strongsouled females." A letter from Lyon's Thorpe correspondent corroborated the Baron's statement. There was something in the matter unaccountable to Lyon Leslie. He felt an inner conviction that, in some way, he was connected with t h e step t h e girl had taken: but he smothered thought, and tried to keep from speculating. His friend a t Thorpe threw no light on U\e circumstances attending Nell's strange conduct, as it seemed t o him. T h e affair of t h e link rankled in him, and, after a day o r two's unwonted uneasiness and actual indecision, h e determined to forget all about the girl, who, h e had no doubt, was a designing little minx, after all. His heart smote him, and be,anathematised an unobtrusive orosaing-sweepor. Ho h a d had a good escapes a n d n e would take good care of oofaatry quarters next time.

The as-essed valuation of Living-ton county is just £15,OOO.OUO, The cost of a new court house would he $olUK)o or one fivehunuredth pari of the a-.-e.-.-ed valuation, whijh would require a tax of one-fifth of one per cent to raise the entire amount in a single year; or, more plainly, a tax of $2 on each $1,003 would necessarily be levied to defray the expense of a new court house, provided the entire tax was to be raised in one. year. But the proposition is to raise but Jti.000 per year. Thus on each $1,000 a tax of 50 cents would be levied. A man worth $10,000 would pay a yearly tax of $4; one svortb §100 would pay yearly 4 cents.

The warden further states that UftlOM 00100 employment ia provided for the convicts he will be kept busy fending men to the asylum for the criminal Insane. Insanity is increasing fast enough without making the prisons of the country breeding placoa of mental disorders. While the competition of convicts with free labor is undoubtedly detrimental to many trades, the wiping out of existing systems without Bupplyiug a substitute is to be condemned. Honest laborers should be protected from suffering from the crimes of others, but occupation of some kind must be furnishod prisoners, for the sake of the community, as well ae for their own. A few years1 confinement in idleness will certainly send men out into the world worse than when they entered upon their term, and when any considerable number become insane as a result of idleness the evil is much worse, as tho taint of insanity will pass into the blood of other generations and crime, which always breeds crime, will breed lunacy as well. Other states than New York are interested in this question, and are watching with great intarest, the outcome. Heoant statistics show, says the London Timet, that while crime is satisjttminishing in England, it is Vy increasing in the United States.

Justice Stanley M a t t h e w s died at 10 o'eloi'k on the morning of the iWd iust. at his home in Washington. The death w a s unexpected, though the Justice has been ill for several weeks, but his jihysieiaus have been predicting IHH complete recovery. In his last hours the dying Justice w a s surrounded by members of his -'family, who have been with him throughout his iiluess. in the United States supremo court immediately upon assembling, the chief justice announced the death of Justice Matthews, and us a m a r k of res)wct to his memory, the court adjourned until Tuesday March J(l. Tho immediate cause of death was exhaustion of the heart aud congestion of the kidneys, Tho senate also adjourned out of respect to the memory of the dead Justice. Stanley Matthews was born ut Cincinnati, O., July 'Jl, ls'J4. He was graduated at Kenyou college, Ohio, '41; was ea dy in tho ami slavery movement and edited the Herald, an anti-slavery paper in Cincinnati; was made judge of the court of com-, mon pleas in Hanover county 51; elected state senator '55; was United S t a t o s u t t o r - ney for the southern district of Ohio at tho outbreak of the war, when he was appointed lieutenant colonel of tho Twenty third Ohio and was present at the battles of liich Mountain, Chicamauga, Murfroes boro and Lookout Mountain; retired to be Judge of the superior court in Cincinnati iu 'lih; was one of the electors on the Lincoln- Johnson ticket in 'M, and the Grant Coltux ia 'iVs; was defeated fur congress in '71: one of the visiting statesman to Lmiisiftna in tho Hayes Tildeu contest; republican counsel for Florida and Oregon before the electoral commission in '71i; was elected senator that year in place of Sherman, resigned.to go into Ha.vnes's cabinet, and was appointed to the United States supremo court in issi. "Tho circuit judges were formerly obliged to go over their circuit at least once in two years,"said United States Judge Hrown, of Detroit "bva the appointment of district judges has tor the past 15 yours lightened their duties in tins regard. Judge Matthews has not he'd court in Detroit since lvs,". He was. previous to his appointment, the leading lawyer of Cincinnati, and h.is always been ve/y famous in his profession, l'ersonaliy he was a charming companion, and as a judge was one of the moat able on tho supreme bench. ' . • . A 1{III),;IWHV Marr'ng«> Miss P a u l i n e Fuller, daughter of Chief Justice Fuller of the United States supreme court, wus married by a justice of the peace in Milwaukee the other night to J. M. Aubrey, Jr., of Chicago. It wus a runaway match. Mrs. Aubrey, nee Fuller, is 19 years of age, highly educated, and a remarkably handsome woman, .1. Matt Aubery, jr., is "d years of age, and as handsome for a man as his wife is for a woman. He.is the son ol'J, M. Aubrey, sr., general western age-tit of the Merchants' despatch fast freight line. The acquaintance of the groom and bride began about three years ago. Justice Fuller, then plain Lawyer Fuller, lived with his eight daughters on Lake avenue, onlv a short, distance from the Inane of young Aubery. The young people met at a party given in the neighhorhood, An attachment sprung up between, them and was opposed by the Fullers. Miss Pauline declared, however, that she would marry whom she pleased, and her father reeogiii/.ed her right to do us she pleased. Mrs, Fuller continued to oppose the match. About tli s time L a w y e r Fuller was named as chief justice ei ttie United States Mrs, Fuller picked up and i arried Miss Pauline away to Washington with the other Misses Fuller. About the lirst of last January Miss Pauline came to Chicago, and has since remained in that city visiting friends of the family, Tho story of the elopement demonstrates that young Aubery I1119 cut his eye teeth. He hired two detectives to shadow him and his affianced until they left Chicago. His object was to learn it' any one was following them and to prevent the young lady being rescued. Justice (Ircgory was groat'y astonished to learn that he had married a daughter of tho chief justice of the United States. On looking at the marriage certificate, however, he was more surprised, for there before his eves were the full names of the chief justice and his wife, aa well as those if the groom's father and mother. Sel?.eil by Canuck*. A dispatch from the customs omciftH at Oftawa says the American schooner \V. H, Foye has been sei.ed at (J rand Man an for an infraction of the Canadian customs laws. 'A private dispatch from (irand Manan gives the following details; ^Tho American fishing schooner W, H, Foyo of Crlmicester, while crossing the Hay of Fundy on her homeward trip from a cruise to the banks, ran short of water and put into (irand Manan to obtain a supply. Some of the fishermen of tho crew of the Foye in obtaining the water, and one of them wanting to obtain a dory, they sold it to him at a reasonable price as a matter of courtesy. This o.imo to tho ears of the local agent of customs at this port, who at once seized the schooner 011 tho grounds that tho captain had been guilty of a willful infraction of the customs act by landing a dory before reporting, and also for selling without paying duty on tho same, The captain objected to this s u m m a r y proceeding and ridiculous reading of tho law, and was getting ready to sail when a pri/u crew was put on hoard and a forciblo seizure made. The department at O t t a w a has been communicated w; th, but in the meantime all offers of monetary security for the release of the schooner, so that she could reach homo before her catch would sdoil, have been refused, • IlfttHe, 11t»g-s Returned, Senator Wade Hampton of South Carolina has sent to the surviving members of tho Fifth Pennsylvania volunteer cavalry two flags captured from that regiment during the late war. Senator Hampton said in his letter: "Tho country has now but one tlag, bin the mon who boro those which I now send to you will be glad to Bee again the banners which they boro In the civil w a r .

Sonator Chace of Rhode Island, who has tendered his resignation, gives au his reason for resigning that tho salary is too small. At a secret legislative session recently Sen ator Teller expressed the opinion that as senators are greatly overworked, they should have annual clerks. Senator P i a t t said he was one of the poor men of tho senate, and urged tha t something should be done in tho way of increasing salaries. Among the representatives t h e r e is a sentiment that the salaries should be raised, but they fear tha t to double thorn, as suggested by some senators, would cause an outbreak of popular criticism such as followed the salary grab of IS7H. T h e r e is no doubt that some step will be taken to increase the members' pay. These nominations were sent to tho senate March IB; Andrew O.

Several errors of enrollment of the acts of the fiftieth congress have been discovered, one of which is tho omission of an amendment reported hy the house committee on appropriations to the senate amendment to the paragraph appropriatingfft50.0O0 for fuel, lights and water for iniblio buildings. The amendment was overlooked and is not iu the law. The aggregate Internal revenue receipts for February last were foi.">l!' less than those for F e b r u a r y , l».ss.

He did not seem to have many hours to live. With much tenderness, she told him she could do n o t h i n g for h i m — t h a t no one could. H o replied t h a t he had an inner conviction t h a t his case was hopeless; but t h a t ho had had an idea a woman doctor, being "out of the common l i k e , " might know something out of t h e common—it was a chance, ho said; and then he smiled a wan smile, adding— " A n d I'm one of a chancy lot, you know well." After a pause, ho added— " B u t I always minded how you got •Dick' the Squire's red t e r r i e r , t h r o u g h t h a t bad t u r n he took of a suddint, and which wo t h o u g h t was poison; but as you said as was nothing but a spell of indigestion along of eating the pig's liver -he stole.

"Oh, Stubbs, how dreadful!" That was all Noll said.

She had refused her cousin Andrew. His very faithfulness reproached her, and j e t seemed to alieuute her from him, for she had nothing, not even hope to give in return. "Nell, I shall never despair until I sec you a n o t h e r ' s , " were his p a r t i n g words. "And t h e n ? " she asked, as if involuntarily, wondering »t such steadfastness. "And then I shall make the beat of life, though life will have taken its best from me. I may till s tme o t h e r woman's needsj but none but you, Nell, could ever FT11 mine.'' The conviction that Randall was not suited to his profession became each day stronger in his sister. She felt t h a t he h a d undertaken a grave responsibility for which lie wan constitutionally unfitted. T h e same conviction had lately forced itself upon Kundall, and lie chafed at the chains that bound hiin to his post. Hitherto he had had no very intricate case, none to which his knowledge had not been equal, supplemented by his sister's adviee, and actual assistance in some instances. It was New Year's Eve. The twins had had a busy day, for the snow was d e e p o n t h e g r o u n d . l h e t o w n w a s full and there was much sickness abroad. They had dined, and were silting over a blazing lire comparing notes of t h e i r separate day's work. " T h a n k goodness," said Randall. ••my cases a r e all plain sailing. Now, if another hitch comes"—meaning n case beyond his skill—"I'll throw up t h e sponge. I give you my word, Nell, I never take on a new patient but I fet'l like a m u r d e r e r ; and, I tell you what in all seriousness-—if I don't kill my patients, they'll kill me! I'd never get t h r o u g h a consultation, only I do t h e Burleigh nod, and always side with tho biggest fellow. T h e r e are very: few that like to say 'b;i' when Sir Billy (lenera, as the wags call him, says 'bo'! Regularly established diseases, common fevers and epidemics, gout and all that sort of thing I'm not afraid of. One can't curotheso things —they run themselves out; all you have to do is to help them over the difficult passes. I don't believe in physicking, that has had its day; but its the intricate cases I do fear, and those you seem born for. I often think mother's right when she says you're 'no canny.' " "It is because they interest m e , " she said simply, " a n d because I love my calling iirst and foremost. If I had any woman's future to hope for, any great object outside my work, I should not be what 1 am. Tho enthusiasm of humanity brooks no rival; to t h a t and absolute concentration I owe my power and success." "[ think." said Randall, hesitatingly,"' i might do something in literature; but that demands concentration, Nell, 1 should like to shelve it all. But for the disappointment of my father, I would; he thinks me far cleverer than you." " D e a r father!" returned Nell. ••He's not so fa'1 wrong; only lie's made the mistake of putting a round slick in a square hole, I believe you could make a mark in literature, you have a creative brain; science deals only with facts. Let us see, when our accounts are made up for the year, how we stand; and, if my score is enough, why take your name oflf the door—a few days' wonder—that is all." At that moment tlie door bell rang sharply: it was sudden call for Randall. A Colonel (Jordon, who had just arrived from India, had been taken ill at an hotel near at hand, and required immediate aid. With a heavy sigh, Randall obeyed the call. "Some intricate liver case, you may be sure, or chronic Indian fever, about which I know as much as of dentistry," ho said, as Nell helped him on with his comfortable ulster. It wius neither; it was even more serious, because imminent. A wound, caused by a bullet which had defied extraction, had suddenly broken out, and erysipelas threatened. Nell awaited her brother's return in much anxiety; she^always was anxious when n fresh patient, came on his books. In an hour he returned, looking jaded and worn. " W h a t have you dom\J " she asked, after he had named the symptoms and described tho state of the patient. He told her. " H a v e you sent for a n u r s e ? " she asked. "He said his sister, who is in tho country, would be in town in a day or two, and his own servant, a soldier, would be up in the morning with his traps: so 1 gave him a sedative, and told him I'd look in again before twelve. There's a good deal of fever: so there really was nothing more that could bo done. A housemaid is to sit up with h i m . " ••Did Colonel Gordon speak much to you, R a n d a l l ? " "No, poor fellow; he scarcely opened his eyes. He only knew I was a doctor, and never asked my name. He is a tine man, but terribly wasted. 1 dare say hi» sister will call in h e r own doctor; if she doesn't, I shall suggest it. It will IKS a long ense, if indeed it doesn't eud badly." " R a n d a l l , I will g o a t twelve o'clock, instead of you. T h e r e will be no one up except the porter, and it would take very keen sight to tell us apart in a dim light- I'll put on my ulster and a mufllcr.'' Nell spoke as one who would not be gainsaid; but, if the truth wore told, Randall bad no will to gainsay her; ho was, in fact, relieved of a weight. W h e n tho hour came, the b r o t h e r and slstor set off together. Randall saw his sistor safe into t h e hotol, remaining in t h e neighborhood on a watch for h e r re-appearanec. Tho patient lay on a half-tester bed, in a l a r g e c o m f a r t t b l e room, w h e r e was a cheerful tot, Lmr which, in a n a r m chair, s a t O M T a t t e n d a n t , halfu l e e p . A » h a 4 a 4 7 t a « P stood o n a d i s t a n t table, on which was a r r a n g e d various cooling drinks. ' 1 Before a p p r o a c h i n g t h e bed, jWeil questioned t h e maid, who told h e r t h a t h e r c h a r g e had slept for two h o u r s , but since then h a d been restless, and calling for water or lemonade every few minutes. " I don't think h e knows \ . ry well where h e i s , " said the g i r l ; " h e talks like a man in his sleep, and fancies he's in a ship." Nell desired the girl to fetch a candle, for which she had to leave the room. As the door closed a little noisily, t h e sick man moved and moaned, Noll approached the bed, gently drawing t h e curtain aside. T h o flickering light of the fire's uncertain blaze, and the dim reflation of the lamp revealed a man in the prime of life, but attenuated and worn. One thin hand lay on tho coverlet—the bedclothes had been pushed off the upper p a r t of the body, as if in petulance of fever, and the broad chest showed s h r u n k e n and hollow—the face was averted. Noll quietly stooped over and laid h e r lingers on the pulse of t h e extended hand. He gave a shiver, as if an electric thrill had passed t h r o u g h his body, and turned on his pillow, opening his eyes bright with fever light. Nell staggered back, clutching at a chair for support. "My love, my love!" she cried t-o her heart; but her lips were dumb. " W a t e r , water!" the sick man moaned. With an almost superhuman effort, she retained h e r consciousness; the very shock roused her to action und to repression. She went to the table and mixed a cooling draught. As bhe did so her eyes fell on an envelope addressed, "Colonel Leslie Gordon, V. C . " - - a hero's name to the world. Well Nell Thanet knew il! She had read of its owner's gallant deeds, and h e r heart had felt pride in her mother's cojntryman. Little had she guessed that tho Lyon Leslie, who had to her played sueh a craven part, was the bravo soldier of the world's and her admiration. Then she remembered that he had spoken lo her of a bachelor uncle named Gordon, from whom he^had expectations. Everything was plain to her now; and very strange it seemed to her t h a t she had not guessed her lover's identity before. It was a steady hand that held the. frothing draugth to the sick man's lips, and a tirm strong hand that lifted the hot head; but her eyes felt burning in h*sr head: they looked unnaturally large. "Oh, so soothing!" lie whispered, looking gratefully into her face. She met his eyes daringly; again he shivered, then, unrecognizing, closed them in fitful slumber. When the girl returned, Nell examined the wound. It presented an ugly exterior; but she knew that the real mischief lay in the location of the bullet; the exact spot of which had, Randall had said, not been discovered. It would be a case of the utmost difficulty and far beyond h e r brother's skill; but strange to say she felt no apprehension of her own. Standing over the prost r a t e form of the man who had so heartlessly blasted her young life, she vowed that to h e r hand, and hers alone. lie should owe his. No bitterness, no reproach entered her heart, cnly a great pitifulnoss, and a sorrow for him apart from herself. She was standing by a g r a v e — t h o u g h she knew it not, from which their could be no resurrection, the grave of her love; but the ashes were there— and, ah, how tenderly the foot treads over tin.' sepulchre of the dead; how holy seems their memory! Then she told the girl that a change had taken place in the .condition of the patient, and that she must remain beside him for tie' night. She their' left the hotel to make some a r r a n g e - ments, she said, and, after a j e w explanatory words to her brother—explanatory merely of the patient's state —she returned, and,,..-dismissing the servant, took up her 'place beside the sick man. Tho hours slipped by—she scarcely knew they passed — she took no note of time, The reality of the stricken m a i V ' t h e strangely still room, her presence there, seemed all a dim dream, and what had for these dividing years been but as a dim dream a vivid reality—the little stream, with its fragile freight of the blue forgetme- nots—the quiet lake bearing on its bosom the one brave spray—the rapturous kiss, the spoken words, anil the deep passionate gaze of eyes too woll remembered. Swiftly, as in a panorama, that summer's day passed before r.er--it iWd not pain her now. Somehow her heart was at rest, the dull aching of the deep wound was over. At every movement she bent over him, now easing his pillow, now laving his brow, then gently touching his lips with moisture, or answering his c r a v i n g cry of " w a t e r " with cooling draughts. Now and again he would open his eyes and look round, as if expecting some known face; but then she ' would stand in the shadow, or droop her head beside the shrouding curtain, and he would sigh and turn wearily away. And so the night passed. As the faint light of m o r n i n g appeared, the fever had ceased, and thr sick man had sunk into a refreshing slumber. Then Nell laid for one brief moment her lips on his brow; but it was only a k;ss of peace- she felt she could pray then. By previous a r r a n g e m e n t , Mrs. Mclan, the old nurse who had been tho twins' constant a t t e n d a n t , and indeed friend, since they had left their home together, took Nell's place in the sick-room, leaving her free to return to h e r brother. It was needful for h e r purpose t h a t she should tell her brother that his new patient was Lyon Leslie, of h e r girlish love. She did so in ns few words as she could command. He said very little, but he threw his a r m s around her as if he would shield h e r from a coming sorrow, and held her to his breast in a sympathising silence t h a t tried her fortitude to t h e utmost. " R a n d a l l , " she whispered, "do not fear for mo. T h e r e are no birds in last year's nest;" but her voice belied h e r words. I n tho course of the day Colonel Gordon's servant arrived from Southampton with his master's luggage, and, under Randall's superintendence, tho former was moved into quiet rooms within a few doors of his own house, and Mrs. M c l a n was installed in chief charge. A letter was written to the Colonel's mc tendance^ by Randall, in tl J? a n d T h e a t ? was t a k e n ner givat night one dav; evening by N e l l . In h e r s h r o u d i n g ulster and w r a p p e r and low felt h a t , she attracted no observation; if she had, t h e r e would h a v e been little fear of being discovered, so perfect was the Likeness between t h e pair, a likeness intensified by similarity of dress. Fortunately for the p a r t Nell was playing, Colonel Gordon's slater was in delicate health, and seldom visited h e r brother in t h e evening. A note was s^nt to h e r the last t h i n g at night to keep her apprised of his condition. In this way Nell felt pretty secure from detection. Her directions, too, were always given to Mrs. M c l a n , who generally managed to find something for tho soldier-bcrvatit to do—a message, or clothes to air—at the hour of Nell's visit. And the sick man lay unheeding, slowly mending towards a partial recovery. There had been a consultation, at which Randall was present, •wnd it was agreed that, unless the bullet was dis"overed and extracted, the patient must eventually succumb to the wasting weakness induced by the open wound; and it was settled that, when he had rallied sufficiently, be should bo put under an a n y » t h e t i c and the probe appliod. During these anxious dt.ys Nell sat late into the night, deep in eurneo1. study. Her face' grew thinner and her eyes unnaturally bright. Each evening, before her visit to the sick room, she made- Randall sit down and go with careful minuteness i n ' o every symptom he had noted. These she wrote down. Scarcely any words were exchanged between her and her old lover. He was generally inclined to sleep If not actually asleep, at the late hour of her vis-it: but, if awake, he would ask her to a r r a n g e his pillows, a.-, somehow, he found she had a knock " n u r s e " had not. lie liked too the doctor's mixing of the effervescing drink at night, and always insisted on ing it to him herself, "You manage me better -om"how, doctor," he said ••you always soothe' me, and your voice is softer than in the day." It puts me in mind of someone; but I can't tell who." Nell was very guarded after tlia' speech, and spoke little; and then in as doop a voice as she could command. And day by day the girl grew more fragile, and her sweet earnest f;t>•«• more spiritual, In these night visits she' was in the habit of weaving a .false mustache, closely resembling her brother's, which was long and silky and covered the mouth. This precaution against detection was needful, but none the less distasteful to her feeling; there was at stake her brother's reputation on one hand, and on the other the very life perhaps of the one man she had loved above all the world. At last the day came when she said to Randall that she thought their patient was sufficiently strong to undergo the probing for the bullet. "•Nell." he said, " c a n you take my place?" " Y e s , " she answered; " I wish it. I shall use the probe myself, Lady Masters" - Colonel Gordon's sister ,- "wishes her own doctor to ho presout - h o is an old man, I believe," ' " Y e s , " said Randall, "seventy at least; I have only seec him once, and then in the dusk. "'1 lien it will only be necessary to call in Sir William Cheque; ho knows the case," "lVrf.vj.ly. Lady Masters told me he spoke to her about her brother, and mentioned how skillful he thought my treatment had been: but all the same h e didn't know me when 1 met him at his own door yesterday. 1 took off my hat to him. and he stared as if I had taken a liberty. You'll be quite safe, I'm sure. He's a great big man, and men of less Mature always look smaller than they really are to tall men." " N u r s e , " said Colonel (Jordon, on the morning arranged for the consultation, "what is the doctor's name? 1 never heard it. He has only been 'the doctor,' to m e . " "Randall, sir," replied Mrs. Mclan. after a moment's hesitation. ••I like his night-visits best." he said. "Somehow the very sound of his foot soothes m e , " Colonel (-Jordon was stronger and altogether in a more favorable s t a t e - so said Sir William Cheque, than on the occasion of his—Sir William's— previous visit. The fever had disappeared, and he was able to take n considerable qnamity of nourishment; there were points in his favor he had hardly expected; but he expressed his decided opinion that the amendment would be only temporary. unless the bullet was traced and extracted, and^yf that he supposed ther^ was little hope. "None that I can see," said Doctor Parr, Lady Master's doctor, who had seen the patient more than once; "and I doubt, if it were found, if he would stand the necessary operation." These words hail passed out o' range of their subject's hearing. Then Nell, standing well in the shade, made a short concise statement, which riveted Sir William's attention, He was a liberal-minded man, and free from all professional jealousy. He saw the young man before him had thoroughly mastered the case, and his interest was roused to see how he would follow it out to the end he indicated. He was a man, though, of fewwords; so he contented himself with an approving nod. and then approached the bed. "You have been in very skillful hands, Colonel Gordon," he said. "You may owe your life lo my yoitng friend -here. I am happy to tell you he has every reason to suppose that he has traced tho enemy. A little courage and we'll get him out. We will give you an anaesthetic and you'll know nothing about it." ( TO HK r o S T T X f E D . ) Looking for Greater Miracles.

T h e recent discoveries of the mi croscope has developed t h e real cause of so m a n y terrible fatalities ami brought out the fact that many-uf t h e symptoms which are called diseases a r e but symptoms of kidney disorder. People do not die because of the kidneys ulcerating and destroying their spinal col umn, b u t because t h e poisonous waste matter is not extracted from t h e blood as it passes through t h e kidneys, t h e only blood purifying organs, b u t remains, forcing its way through the system, attacking the weakest organ. T h e doctors call this a disease, when in reality it is but a symptom. Understanding this, the re;ison w h y W a r n e r ' s Safe C u r e cures so many common diseases is plain. It removes the causes of disense by putting tho kidneys in a healthy condition ; enables them to per form their functions and remove the poiaonous acids from the blood; purifies t h e blood and p i e vents t h e poisonous matter coursing t h r o u g h the system and attacking the weaker organs and producing a malady which t h e unsuspecting victim fears is, and t h e heartless practitioner-pronounce*, a disease, because of his inability to re move the cause. H e avoids the real cause and keeps h ' s patient in ignorance because of his inability to oopo with a n ' a d v a n c e d kidney difficulty. Any honest practitioner will admit that there is nothing laid down in tho old or in the modern medical work- that is a specific for advanced kidney disorder. His bigotry and code prevent him from publicly adopt ing any preparation not discovered by his kind, and not recommended b.v his instructors 25 or 30 years before. He forgets that tfiis is a progressive world, and that most of t h e great medical unit scientific discoveries of the present day have been made outside the medical profession. The public, knowing these facts, should heed t h e warning and seek safety from tho great danger that surrounds them and look for help outside t h e profession too bigoted aad too self-reliant to lcaru or concede that science is outstripping their materia modi ca and leaving them mid their obsolete methods far behind.

T h e only menace to day to our institutions and the perpetuity of our ^ov e m i n e n t w a s the suppression of a free and fair ballot. He would tike te bear a bugle call throughout the land demanding a pure ballot. A free ballot, honestly expressed and fairly counted, was the main safeguard of our institutions, and its suppression tinder any circumstance could not be toler nted.

N o r d i d Mr. Harrison inter.il by these words to eharacterb'O features or stigmati/e dis honest acts or corrupt political methods ex istent in one locality or one section of our country alone. He saw, a s o t h e r wise and earnest men see, that t h e evil alluded to is more general and f.ir reaching than this.

Techuic. lly described, the Khines Vote Recorder is a box with two covers. On the lid of this box a r e arranged buttons or keys. On the face of each key is the name of the candidate to be voted for. Kach r o w reading up and down represents a party. Each row reading across represents an office. T h u s on a machine to record the vote for state officers the first row across contains the names of candidates for governor, the second for lieutenant governor, and so on through tho list. As each keyis perfectly independent of every other the elector merely presses t h e one of his cho-ce for any office and his vote is recorded and tabulated without confusion in the returns. The keys as voted are automatically locked down as soon as pressed, and the voter c m make no mistake as to which ones he has voted. No subsequent pressure of these buttons will accomplish more than this one vote, as that is not recorded, nor are" the keys released until t h e cover has been lowered and raised again. T h e act of raising t h e cover, even in t h e slightest decree, rings the gong. Underneath tho lid of the box are ns many rolls of paper as there a r e offices to be voted for. On each of the rolls is the name of t h e candidate corresponding to the name on the key or button directly overhead. So when a voter presses a key ho makes a num her on tho paper under the name of his candidate corresponding to the whole number of votes that candidate up to that time has received. Thus each key is simply a numbering machine w h n h does its work automatically correct. T h e r e is also on the lid of the oox a numbering device showing the whole number of votes polled. The whole is compact, sim pie, positive in its motions, and ]>erfect in its adaptability to the needs of a secret ballot, and a correct count. </!l(i»»i»»,»»>m,na>manimmm R E R DEM. WDrLB'R.'

All tho measures proposed to our legisla t u r e can be classed under t h r e e he . d s : 1. To amend the present law by increasing t h e restrictions and adding greater penalties for bribery and intimidation. 'J. To adopt t h e Australian method, which 1B a sure remedy for some of the evils surrounding the ballot box. 3. To adopt t h e Khino's ballot system and vote recording machine, together with those portions of t h e Australian system t h a t have been found to w o r k satisfactorily in all countries and under all c o n d i t o n s , T h o f i r s t s c h e m e is simply for a temporary makeshift. It will satisfy no one honestly desiring ballot reform. It will not accomplish any appreciable good. T h e present system is fundamentally wrong, and patch ing it u p cannot reach t h e cause of tho trouble. T h e Australian system h a s many good points, b u t it has one chief defect: T h e multiplicity of candidates in the Cnitod S t a t e s makes the counting of the votes an arduous undertaking, in which the liability to e r r o r s a r e great. T h e system of booths is good; having the names of all the candi dates on one ticket is nn excellent idea; b u t tho Australian system is defective, as a r e all t h e present methods, when it comes to counting tho vote*. Tho claim is made, and certainly with m u c h plausability, t h a t tho Khines ballot s y s t e m s n d voting machine, in connection w i t h the hill now before t h e legislature, i«* asrary dadTMl 1B t h e present elec difficulty of idc* a p e r t record of t t *& .to for, thm.-vine for presidential elector*. In f-.-wft of each compartment is a screen *ufflciently high to hide the kevsof the machine b u t n o t so high but that the cover of the machine can be seen when raised. In each compartment is a si>,'n in large, plain type; "Kaise the cover and vote; having voted, close it. Do not. open or close t h e cover more than once,'' After the elector has been found entitled to vote ho is allowed to go into t h e com p a r t m e n t in which the voting machine is standing. He sees before him a box with a cover. liaising the cover, which sounds a bell, a number of rows of keys or buttons are disclosed. Kach row represents some one party, and e.ich row is of a different color. On the face of each key is t h e name of the candidate, while by the side of the keys is t h e name of the office. Tho voter presses a button, ami it re mains down. It has pressed against a roll of paper underneath making a clear mark of a figure; which figure is the total number of votes that particular candidate up to that time has received, H e does this with ;is many candidates as he wishes to vote for, each vote being recorded in t h e same manner. When tie has voted he shuts down the lid of the machine, the keys are released and the box is ready for t h e next voter. When the last vote is polled, the machine has faithfully recorded and count, ed every vote, and it only remains for the inspectors to announce the result. T h u s t h e r e is perfect secrecy while the elector is voting. H e goes from one com partment to another, and is given a sufti cient length of time in each compartment to vote. Then he goes out. Tho bill guards every avenue to fraud by proper safeguards and penalties. Kach party represented on t h e machine is en titled to a s c r u t i n e e r to keep watch during the time t h e machine is in use and sec that the interests of. each candidate is protected against fraud of every kind. They shall also examiho the machine before t h e voting bee/ins, to see that everything is In order: Two points apainst the machine are raised, i l ) Is it constitutional: c.',t Is it mechanically practical' Tho first question, as to its constitutionality, is answered in the aftinndtivo by Mr. Krod A. Baker, one of the best •'constitutional lawyers iu Michigan, s s follows: DKTKOIT, MION.. March Itf, lsSO. To the Rhine's Hallot System C o . : Gentlemen:—Section *J of article T of the constitution of this state is as follows: "All votes shall be given b.v ballot, except for such township officers a s shall bo authorized by law to be otherwise chosen." » * • What a r c the essentials of the ballot!

This machine was invented by a gentleman connected with the manufacturing department of the Pioneer Press, and is a womlcr in its way. The voter simply touches a button marked with ttie name of the yand: date, and his vote is infallibly des'irmited by its right number, and he cannot make it. record more than one vote for the same candidate Any attempt at fraud is infill! J b.v revealed by the record made by the machine. When the poll is closed the number of votes cast for each candidate is found infallibly re corded. There is no question that this machine « ill do all -that is claimed for it. It' would cost much less than the Australian system."

T h e inventor explained everything very clearly: several test were made successfully, and t h e mem hois 0f the club were very enthusiastic over this contrivance, which, it is hoped, will'bo the means of at least giving purity to elections. This method of voting seems to possess all tho virtues of t h e AuMr.dian s y s t e m ; hone of its evils, and a great many advantages that the other dees not have. D i e Detroit Kvenuig News, Detroit Kvenfng.Journal, Detroit Advance, Detroit Free Press, Detroit Morning Tribune, a number of the (irand Rapids journals and many others of t h e pa(>ers of the state have spoken apprcciatingly and many warmly in support of the n e w - t h e only A m e r i c a n - - s,\ stem of voting. The people a r e thoroughly alive and in earnest in their demands for this reform. Our legislature is being inundated w i t h l>etitioiis praying for a new system of bal loling, and particularly of ,-10/1,/1/17 the ^ l ^ 'o'.«, and earnestly asking for a careful in vestigation of this promising system and vote recorder. T h e i r petition will not be ignored nor tbeir wishes slighted. A measure introduced for the adoption of this system has met with consideration at the hands of o u r intelligent legislators at Lansing, which is Haltering in the extreme, and w e do not h e s i t a t e here to hazard t h e prediction that before the cJoae of t h e present session the bill, substantially a s Intro duced, will be enacted into a l a w ; a n d that thus our Michigan.a* s h e has done in many other worthy enterprises, will en;oy the distinction of taking t h o leading role in this tho noblest a s well ns t h e most noces sary of all genuine reforms of o u r system and methods of election. In the city of Detroit last fall, »0 flagrant were t h e abuse* a t t e n d i n g t h e election t h a t a cry arose from alt good men" of all p a r t i e s for some positive s t e p to effect a reform.

At the latest advices this fam ly had lived in the same bouse eleven years. If we take things as they come we shall usually had out that they come much better than we li&ve any r i g h t to expect. O u r anticipatory (lags of distress may have been inviting compassion and flinging patches of darkness over many a bright scene for months, only for us to find at last that we havp been guilty of needlessly, we might say criminally, robbing ourselves and others of the happiness rightfully be longing to us and to them. "Borrowing trouble " is sometimes only another name for selfishness; for the one borrowing trouble is seldom satisfied unias* all within his or her influence nre inveighed into t h e tods. It is holding a dangerous serpent in our h e a r t s that grow* with what it feeds upon. It is sinful, for it is an abiding distrust of U"d't s goodness. The Prince of Wales' SOIM, For so pretty a woman the Prim-ess of Wales has the ugliest d a u g h t e r s and one of the stupidest sons imaginable, The oldest son of the prince—the one commonly known as "Cuffs and Collars." becauso of his fancv for exceedingly h U h collars and his inclination for tha t r e m a r k a b l e action known as shooting li,s cuffs —is as stupid as he is ugly. T h e second son, Prince Ceorge, is most delightful and a great favorite among the Knglish people. Very early in life he displayed his independent spirit. One day t h e royal family were at dinner, and the children were brought in at dessert. Prince (leorge was then in (K'ttieoats. After they had been made much of for a while they were taken out, but suddenly the n u r s e r e t u r n e d to say Prince George was missing; he couldn't be found anywhere. I t w a s suggested that thoy should look u n d e r the table, and from out of it. at this hint, walked his small royal highness, totally divested of his cloth ing, his face smeared with some fruit from stolen tarts, and about him tha t air of conquest only possible to a baby boy. To him is credited t h e advice given to his stupid brother, when it w a s necessary for him to fill up the time, that he should "g t irrto a c o r n o r , ami whistle God save your grandmother." —Philadelphia Time*. 5 JACOBS Q { IEDY**RA lN X T C O N Q U E R S I > A I 2 V .

Corunna Journal: The organization of Patrons of Industry is said to be a new scheme to catch the unwary farmers. All the members agree to trade at one particular store on condition that the goods are furnished them at about ten per eon: above cost. The only ones who malo any tiling out of the scheme, it. is said, are the sharpers who organize it. They get, a fee out of the storekeeper and every farmer who becomes a member. Farmers are allowed 'lh cents fach for setting out yrting maples or shade trees along the highway of their farms. A law provides that each shade tree set 25 feet from the center of the road and 60 feet apart by the occupant o.f the property, he shall be entitled to a credit of'.15 cents for each iree to the amount of \ of his highway tax for each year. This is a proriiabje improvement which farmers sbculd universally adopt. Gov. Luce's proclamation fixes Saturday, May 20, as Arbor Day for all portion of the state lying south of the north line of Mason, Lake, Osceola, Clare, Gladwin, and Arenac counties, and Saturday, May 4, for 8.11 that portion of the state lying north of such lirje, The govenor says: "On the Arbor Days appointed, let the tree planting be in such appropriate spot or place as the judgment may select, but more especially would I urge that this year our roadsides and thoroughfares be remembered.'' Prof. K. Corazzi, leader of the White Eagle Italian band and orchestra, left his rooms at 69 Chainplain street yesterday about 12::¾) o'clock and went to see his son Harry, who lives with his , wife at 86 East Columbia street. As j his son was not in Corazxi told his daughter-in-law that bs would not wait, and returned to his room at 1:15 p . m . Five minutes later Mrs. R. H. Corry, in whoso house he roomed, heard a pistol shot and hurrying up stairs found Corazzi lying dead on the floor, having shot himself through the heajt. From the position in which the body lay it is evident that Corazzi stood in front of t»e looking glass and pointing the revolver a little below the left nip* pie fired the fatal shot. His white hair was smoothlv combed over his high forehead. Near his delicately shaped hand lay the weapon with which the deed was done, an old-fashioned 32-calibre revolver. A penknife with a newly orofceo blade lying close beside him, taken together with bin freshly cut ahirt. whivh was dampened with water, would indicate that he fata tried to stab himself to death, bat failing in the attempt resorted to tne putol, which he held so doeento.bifl brefttt that the powder blackened only the inside of th« shirt and the skin.—[Detroit Tribune. It will be remembered by iiMny in this village tbafc Mr. Corazzi was the leader of the band here when it was organized, and while bet* he gained many friends, who will be pained to learn of his sadden demise. Co Tuesday last we were invited to the pleasant farm of Frank A. Barton, in Unadilla, about five miles west of this village. His farm consist? of 142| acr»s of fica land, under good cultivation and wi^i many good buildings- After a pleasant chat, we were invited to view his fleck-of sheep, which are all full-blood Merinos. We were first shown a bunch which contained fifteen bucks, among the- Humbqr ,waa tStar Bismark," registered* rToc 87. He is three years; old -and was bctdeby Geo-.

The second bunch that we observed'tontained seventeen ewes and ten weathers from two to three years of age, all in good condition and carrying a neayy load of excellent wool, tie also has twenty-nine breeding ewes of the same blood who are in splendid condition and are raisins some fine Iambi, which are not quite one week old. In 1883 Mr. Barton first commenced to raise this blood otiijbeep, by purchasing, ten ewes of S. G. T^pb> and three from C. P. LaRuft of near this place, and now be has as fine* (look of Merino sheep at one* couid desire, but he haa not raised this exoaU lent flock without much work ana care. We were next shown the thorough- bred darham bull, "Oceola Duke,11 calved April 23, 1886, and bred by E ; C. Reed of Oceola, this county. He Ll a fine one and weighs about 1,900 pounds.

Projected H*ilro»d and Wfi»t Accomplish 1( Built. 1 It Would "A new railroad is b«ing projected," said Frederick Carlisle, 51 Cam pan block, "and it is probable that a company will s>oon be organized in Detroit to build it.. I t will be 163 miles long, and it is t i e intention to carry » through, Wayne county, a corneri of Oakland and thence through Living* ston, Ingham, Eaton, Barry and Allegan counties to Saugatuek, on the shore of Lake Michigan. thei>e is no railroad io.*>n.ing parallel with this proposed line for 20 miles on .either side. The product of the country in these localities is very great. Allegan! Barry and Eaton in 1884 shipped 6.000.00U bushels of grain, not to mention catt'o and other products. Her*i tofore this has all gone south, but the proposed line will bring a large share into Detroit. I am assured that those three counties will subscribe $100,000 each in stock, and Ingham and Litmgston are good for $50,000 <ftcp. But of course the bulk of tb« capital will come from Detroit. Mr. D. IL ?erry is now looking over the plans and estimates, and 1. hope he will become interested in the scheme." • • , "There is another, road—the Columbus, Lima •& Northwestern—which ia to run from Columbus through Lima, Stcrgis and Allegan to Saugatuck, It has.built about 65 miles of road, has absorbed the South Haven & Kalamazoo read and the Ohio & Mansfield, and wilt ab?torb some others. The object of this road is to carry coal from Ohio, and ferry the cars across Lake Michigan to Milwaukee, a distance of 83miles, thus bringing Minneapolis and the northwest 125 miles nearer the seaboard than by any other route. The road from Detroit it is hoped will enter into a business arrangement with the Ohio road, by which the ferries will be used mutually. The Ohio road has already ordered two boats a* an experiment. I have gone ahead on my own account, and snrveved a line* from Mason to Hamburg, a distance of' 35 miles, most of the right of way of, which has been secured. At present Mason people have to go to Jackson. or Lansing in order to reach a rail^ road.

FKGKNXY MICHIGAN s o m e tea year a ago there wa* a vigorous prohibition crusade in Canada, and t h e dominion parliament was induced to enact a local opt'on law authorising counties and cities to decide every three year* for or against license. Trof. Gold win Smith states tho r e s u l t In tho province of Ontario there are forty-two counties and eleven cities, of v/hish twenty-eight counties and two ciiios adopted a prohibitory law. T e a of 1ho counties have recently reconsidered their vote, and in eightean countie* and two cities a movement is on foot to restore the licer.ee system. The prohibition law is treated as a daad letter throughout the entire province, the experience having been a ropotition of t h a t elsewhere with prohibition. It substituted for t h e public and regular sale of liquors a gearsb and uncontrollable traffic. The business fell into the hands of irresponsible persons and tho moderate use of liquors ha* beon replaced by secret drunkenness, wltA all its demoralizing results. In other parts of t h e dominion prohibition has proved a dismal failure, and instead of promoting temperance ha3, according to Prof. Smith, brought smuggling, perjury, secret intoxication and systematic adulteration of liquors in itB train.

Some of the saddest scenes t h a t one could witness in tho lives of our dumb friends are at the auction stables, where horses and mulos aro scH. No ono ever buys a "jorse. just because it is lamo and nick and worn out, but because it n cheap and "is suro to be cured.'1 J-'o, many a man makes off with a $8 or$f> mulo, which he hopes to work, when tho only ro;wl that beast should walk leads to tho bono yard. There is no intentional cruelty on tho part of tho purchaser—of course not. Tho horses and mules, while in the care of tho auctioneer, nro fed and protected from tho weather. Surely he | cannot be held responsible for soiling a Eick, lame, disabled bruto to tho purchaser, who knew equally well its condition. The man who »r>lls tho beast, who sends it sick and lamo and disabled to be sold - is ho cruel? How can ho be expected to keep all tho stock that wears out in his service? Why, it is an easy calculation to see that it pays to buy and sell a sick, worn out animal. Say you give three, or even five dollars, for a mule. You take it homo and doctor it; medicine costs another fivo dollars; that is ton; food, at the lowest figure,"is, we will say, one dollar. With an elovon dollar mulo the wise purchaser sallioi ' forth and looks for a load; ho waits probably an hour or two, or even a day or two, and finally ho gets his load. * But the" streets aro bad, and his mule, in spite of doctoring, isn't strong, the wagon sinks in the mud, and the whip fail" to bring strength to tho poor beast. Tho S. P. C. A. ottioor admonishes the now irato possessor of tho cloven dollar stjod. Persuasions aro useless; blows fall on the beas',; the man is arrestod; the mulo declared unfit for work; the owner fined ton dollars or ten days, for cruelly boating a disabled mule, and tho man soils tho beast to the bwieyard for one dollar, making himself out of pocket just twenty dollars! Homo he goes, a saddor if not a wiser man. On tho other hand, did tho man who sent tho beast to auction | upon tho proceeds of tho aalo? animal was sent to stables, it boarded, probably, "on terms to tration and many such wore designated to mo. I told tho southern people that before I loft tho north I had assurances that President Harrison's administration would be non-sectional, t h a t ho would know no east or west, north or south in tho conduct of h i i great office and that I would use whatever influence I posaossed to eecure the appointment of reputable men to offices of the south. "The day of tho carpet-baggor has gone by, and it was a disgraceful epoch in our party history. The southern people aro frank to say: 'Of course we do not allow tho nogro roto to c o u n t Wo cheat them where they outnumber us, but we cannot, and will not allow them to rule us.' I said to the governor of South Carolina: «1 would r a t h e r have your race question than ours in the north. We have toconUmd against all the races of the world. Yours is a very simple problem and ono easy of solution.1 Then I suggested t h a t the southern states should, each of them, establish an educational qualification for suffrage when the intelligent people, black us well as white, would be arrayed on one side and the ignorant on tho other, and they need have no fear of the black man when he is educated. He seemed struck with the 1 idea, and remarked that the only fear they had of the negroes was of bad and cunning white men making use of them, as in tho old carpetbag days. I also said to tho governor; 'I seo you are trying to establish an emigration bureau m tho north. Stop it. You want tho northern people; you don't want the European* You have now in the south the purest American blood in the country, and should koep it so.1 "I am not opposed to foreigners who como to this country with a knowlodgo of our institutions and become good citizens; but I am opposod to tho riffraff who control the affairs of our great northorn cities. We have many foreign born people who are acquisitions to the country and are among our host citizens. ' One thing that surprised me very much was that the negroes are themselves dividing on a color lino, the lighter ones separating themselves from the darker ones. ^ ''Another encouraging sign is the r e - * vival of the old whig sontimout «*, grow rich I south.

K W m , EWTOR AMD PROPRIETOR Ttn**»«f, MlcMftn. Thursday, April 18th, 1819 EJQHTKEN states in the union hare adopted scientifi 3 temperance educat ion laws, and congress has passed a law, which insures tlie instruction of yduth in principles of teraperence in the schools of the territories, the District of Columbia and the military and naval schools. These results are due to the efforts of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union, which devotes ranch energy, time and money to the work. MB "m H. S. HOLMES & CO., STRONG pressure is being brought to bear in certain quarters to induce the legislature to restore the death penalty for murder. The Detroit Tribune of Friday last contained a long list of horrible .murders and assults that have taken place in Michigan during the past two years, with the object of set* ting the people to thinking. The list published shows 40 convictions for murder, 50 acquitals, and 22 trials pending. Eleven were sentenced to life imprisonment. The Signal does not favor capital punishment, notwithstanding the above startling figures. It appears that more than one-half of the trials for murder resulted in acquittal, but ft does not' necessarily follow that any considerable number of those ac^uited were innocent. A little money and a shrewd lawyer are very frequently quite sufficient to ward off punishment. The unjust privileges allowed to lawyers are indeed astonishing, and the reform we believe should provide fehat jarors must be men of recognized intelligence and must promise under oath to render a verdict in harmony with the evidence, according to their best judgment. Such men aie the ones most likely to "judge righteous judgment." The preposterous idea that a juror may be okgtfited to because he is reasonably intaUifNrt should be done away with by %W* STfce numerous other points of 1»*« whereby attorneys are enabled to ttMVre delays,—new trials, changes of ttnue, etc., should be changed so as to Secure justice, rather than the contrary as at present. If a largo number of the lawyers themselves could be transported to some distant uninhabited island the affect would be very salutary.— [Springport Signal. CHELSEA, MIGWIG-AN.

Luco has issued the following Arbor Day proclamation: An old proverb tells us "That ho who plants a tree loves others besides himself." The voices of spring again remind us of life and lives to come, and of duties to others, that-only the recurring seasons, can ripen lor enjoyment. In chid accord with a happy custom, I designate as Arbor Day for all that portion of the state lying south of the north line of Mason. Lak'j, Osc\ ola, Chi re, Gladwin and Arenac count ie.-\ Saturday, April tJO, and for all that port-ion of the state lying north of such line, Saturday, May 4. The ax and saw are fast disrobing our fertile state of her native green, and only those who are willing to plant and wait for their reward, van give back to her and Tier rich soil the blessings she would preserve to our children. Tho blazed and crooked path through the dark forest, a few years since, has changed to the now dusty and shadeless highway. Looking to the beauty, comfort and good •of Michigan in days to come, wisely do our laws invito tho adornment of highways, by providing that: "Shade trees shall bo planted along both sides of the public highways at tho uniform distance, cs near as may be, of sixty feet apart, and not leas than twenty threo nor more ihan twenty-five feet from the center of the highway," and that, "Any person planting shade trees along the highways, adjacent to property owned or occupied by such person, shall be entitled to be credit •ed twentv five con's upon his highway tax for e ;cry tree so planted, but not to exceed in tho aggregate twenty-five per cent of such person's highway tax in any one y e a r . " On tho Arbor day appointed let the tree planting be in such appropriate spot or place as the judgement may select, but more especially would I urge that this yeur our roadsides and thoroughfares be remembered, To the loyalty of a state that has over been true. _ AruLi'hu dried better than it know," To a people "loving others besides them i elves," and desirous of thoir hnppiness, I do most respectfully appeal for the observance of •this beautiful custom. in witness wheroof, I have on this 41b day of April, A.

T h e man bending over her listened with darkened eyes and set face to tho despairing WOl'dB. ••Why do you choose aon^s Hko that?1 1 he asked almost angrily, when she had finished. Sho looked at hira aa she roso, and stood, a tali exquisite ilgure in t r a i l i n g robes of apricot bilk and cream lace; her long rounded arras, b a r e to tho shoulder, hung down before her, tho little lingers tightly interlaced; h e r neck, long and slender, rose gracefullj as a swan's from the soft lace veiling1 the white shoulders. Her face was most beautiful, perfect in feature, perfect in coloring, lighted by glorious eyes, deep and soft and dark; a face that a man might live or die for, and as Kberhard Leigh gazed into it, his b r e a t h quickened, his eyes deepened. " W h y do you sing such wretched songs?11 he demanded again imperatively. Elvira Beauchamp moved from the piano ere she replied. She gained the shadow of the heavy curtains at one of the windows, and t h e n she looked at hor companion again, and said sadly, "They suit me best; they are the only ones In harmony with my own life." '"Nonsense!" from him almost roughly. Then, with sudden entreaty in his low rich voice: " I t shall not be 'Goodbye,' Elvira, for us, It shall not.11 " I t will break my heart if it is, E b e r h a r d , " the girl said softly, with a little catch in her breath. "It. need not bo unless you so decree it." " I ? What am I against fate?" She shrugged her shoulders and h e r eyos hardened. " I t is fale that, has decreed you shall bo penniless, and I—• at tbis moment, Kberhard, my debts a r e so many and so pressing t h a t I almost fear imprisonment." " I wish that I could sell my worthloss existenco and pay them for you!11 was the man's passionate response. "Would you do so much for mo?" gently. "Would you indeed give me self-sacrifice? But, no—I know how men talk. Words arc very different from actions." "Tell me one thing I can do for you and I will do it." She answered him with a look, but 1hen hor eyes wandered away, and they fell upon a man at tho other end of the largo drawing-room, who was watching her with a scowl upon his stern, huwk-liko face. She mot his glance, and instantly s h e glided from Leigh and took a seat in a then t u r n to scow!, for the hawk-faced man went promptly across to her, and the inveterate coquctto turned with a brill".ant smile to greet him. Yiberparil Leigh had only ono advantage o,-er his rival—that of personsi appearance. Leigh was a splendidly handsome man. CTory inch a soldier, tall and broad: magnificently strong, yet easily graceful—dark, bronzed, finely moulded. Sir Peter Ruskin was ugly and of thin, cramped figure; but he was a biironoT-. and possessed a rent-roll of twelve thousand per annum. Wferlianl Leigh had nothing save bay. ai;d a slender allowance from Ifmclo, old Lord Lester. T h e run- Wi,s scarcely even. Ai Mifes Leachamp deliberately dolerted him for his rival, lvcigh crossed the room, and heedless of the glances of ono or two iniTrs ot^bTighreyes who" would have welcomed him gladly, he took, a seat by the side of a child of 12 vears, who was looking at, the scene before her without attempting to mix in it, "Does this amuse you, Dorothy?'' tint) soldier asked. "Do you like sec all these people here inking fools of themselves?" he Iddod bitterly. Tlie ifirl turned to him. T h e r e wore fH lend id capacities in h e r face, a j?rami promise of futuro beauty; but at proj-ent it was palo and thin, and too old-looking for her size: tho only leautii'ul thing about Dorothy Heauohamp was hor eyes. lonely part of the room; and it was E b e r h a r d Leigh's "Aro you a-ked in he:- "I verily one of tho l a t t e r ? " sho quaint unchildish way. behove I am. Toll me, Dorothy—you a r e a little witch for seeing and reading secrets—do you think I am making a fool of myself?" T h e child1* glance traveled over to where h e r cousin Elvira sat listening with radiant expression to something t h e baronet was whispering in hor ear. " I suppose you can't help it. Mr. L e i g h , " she said. "You are right, Dorothy. I can't. Do you think I bhouldbe wiser to help It?1' he went on in strange persistency. Quite a look of womanly pity stole Into t h e child' 8 eyes as she rested them upon the handsome troubled face. " E l v i r a means to m a r r y Sir Peter,1 ' Dorothy said quietly, and then, without waiting to see the effect of her blow, in kindly compassion loaving it to be borne unseen, t h e girl got up and went out of t h e room. Half an hour lator, perhaps, tho positions of tho actors in the d r a m a were changed again. Sir Peter Bad gone into the smoking-room, and all such guests as were r u t staying in t h e house had taken their departure. Elvira Beauchamp, by ono of h e r adroit movements, had gained Eberhard'a side. "You look like a thunder cloud,'1 she said saucily. " A r e you meditating a murder, may I a s k ? " " M a y I ask how much longer you contemplato playing fast and loose with two strings to your bow?" he returned grimly. " I t may be very amusing for you, but " " D e a t h to you. Is lhat i t ? " " I t would be that, I verily believe —death, or something less prefera b l e , " in slow passion-fraught tones. " I contemplate n o t h i n g , " the coquette said impatiently. " I am tho sport of fate, as I told you before; I shall just bo thrown in the direction it chooses." " I was told this evening t h a t you intended to marry Rusk in." " I have often been told t h a t I am going to marry you,11 she laughed. " M a k e it t r u e . " His hands clasped hers with vicelike pressure. She winced and laughed. " I am not prepared for any extreme moasure yet." "Elvira, you told me you loved m e . " Hoarse and unsteady his voice became. " I tell you it again; I lovo you, Eborhard, and you alone." " T h e n marry mo at once." "And starve. " N o ; not starve, because they would feed raa in prison, where I should cortainly find myBelf. Eberhard, you must have commen- Kenso. If we could find anyway of paying my horrid debts—Sir Peter would do it, I verily believe, if I asked him, but—-—" "You shall not ask him. Would you sto:>p to anything of that kind?" His face was as white as death. " I don't stoop; I am knocked down by fate," Miss Beauchamp returned easily. "By tho way, dear, did you make that application to your uncle?" " I did," grimly; "and with tho result I anticipated, of course. Here is his letter. He absolutely refuses to lend me ono farthing." "Lot me look at what ho says," Sho took the letter from him and scrutinized it eagerly, moving a little nearer tho light as she did so. " W h i n curious handwriting!" she said. "I think I will koop it. if you will le'o mo, Eberhard. I like odd specimens of caligraphy." "By all means koop it," negligently, but then in quiekoned tono ho said: " W h a t are you going to give me for it, Elvira?" " W h a t do you think it is w o r t h ? " coquettishly, uplifting h'^r lovely face. "Nothing could bo worth such reward, but I ask for a kiss, my darl i n g . " "You are very bold, sir." She glanced round, and no ono was able to seo, so sho smil-ed at him. "My hands. I suppose, you mean?" up-rais. ing the pretty little jeweled lingers. "You know otherwise." Ho stooped boldly and pressed his lips on hers, and she did not rebuke him; she almost returned the caress, and thon sho tripped away lightly, indifferently, ...as if it were nothing to hor, this kiss which meant so much to him; and gloomily he stood t h e r e thinking, long after Elvira had left him: " I t is folly—it. is madness—it is an impossibility, 1 his love of mine; and yet I cannot give her u p . " he said. " I could sooner p a r t with my life."' A touch on the shoulder broke his reverie, and the object of his t h o u g h t s stood beside him. T h e r e was a slightly troubled expression in the beautiful eyes as they wore iiftcd earnestly to his, a slight quiver \ipon the lovely lips as Elvira said softly: "Did you moan your words just now, Eberhard? Would you indeed do anything for mo?" "Anything in tho power of man to do." Ho drew Yier to him as his eyes giv% od devotedly into hers, and his voice thrilled in it*< utterance. "Would you boar anything for my sake—I mean, bear anything to m a k e mo h a p p y ? " "My darling, yos." " T h e n you are better, nobler than man ever was before," she said with emotion in her voico and something suspiciously lileo tears in her eyes. The next moment sho was in his arms, folded closo to his heavily-boating heart, while b i t U s e e s fell like r a i n upon h e r bright d a r k hair. " I love you—oh, Eberhard, I do love you!" sho murmured. "You aro better to me t h a n I deserve.1 1 "My love—my darling! Bo true, be patient, Elvira, my own, 'fcntl surely we shall eonquer o u r difficulties. Love must conquer fate.11 " N o t h i n g could kill your love for me?11 she asked again, uplifting those glorious eyes. They might h a v e charmed a man's very life from h i m ; they charmed away Leigh's reason. " N o t h i n g , " he returned vehemently. T h e next day, in t h e Furk, Miss Beauchamp sat in h e r carriage drawn u p under h e r favorite tree, and admirers thronged up to her as usual. Elvira was in a closed carriage for a wonder, and she looked pale and far from well. She had a cold, she said. Sir Peter Ruskin was standing close by the window of t h e brougham, monopolising with easy h a u t e u r its beautiful occupant; but Elvira1 * eyes wandered ever and anon over the passersby with wistful eager look, and half t h e time she answered Sir Peter at random. He put .it down to confusion, caused by his own attentions, and was not one whit displeased. But suddenly the lovely blue eyes brightenod, the fair face flushed feverishly, and Miss Beauchamp, rising from her seat, waved one of her little gloved hands half imperatively, half entreatingly. Instantly the invitation was answered by Eberhard Loigh, who strode t h r o u g h tho little crowd to shake hands with the beauty. Sir Peter scowled; Loigh smiled. T h e moment triumph was his, for Elvira's eyes were fixed on his with a look which made his h e a r t beat tum u l t o u s l y ; her little fingers clung to h ' s almost convulsively; heedless of the diabolical expression settling upon the baronet's face as he thus saw his rival preferred. " I want to see you 90 much, Mr. Leigh. I want to speak to you. Will you come for a t u r n round tho P a r k with me'1 1 Miss Beauchamp said hurriedly. Eberhard's face lighted; he bent forward eagerly. "Of course I should like it above all things, but I am bound to be at tho b a r r a c k s in half an h o u r . " He glancod at his watch. "Half an hour! Oh, you have lots of time! You can j u m p out at tho corner of D, street. Oh, do come! You can't refuse me now.11 He could not refuse t h a t tone and glance, of course. " J o h n , open the door for Leigh," tho young lady said impatiently, and the servant sprang from the box and obeyed. Leigh got in, leaving Sir Peter bohind like a veritable fury, and tho little brougham whirled away. But alone with her lover Elvira sat mute and whito, loaning back in her corner as far as possible from him, and gazing with troubled eyes out upon tho scenes they passed. Leigh touched h e r hand. " D a r l i n g you had something to say to m o ? " Sho turned a dazzling, bewildering smile upon him. it was only t h a t I y •;<.!. with mo, Eber- I>Ii\ I think to have No wan tod h a r d . " "My darling." lie bent his head and impressed a passionate kiss upon tho littlo gloved ban J. She lot it remain quiescent in his clasp, but roplied nothing. " I s anything troubling you, sweet?" he asked after a pause, r e g a r d i n g earnostly the palo face. " T h e same old things; they always trouble mo," she said with a sigh. "But I will throw them off and be h a p p y . " She did not glance at him as she slowly spbke, but her tone and its words thrilled his very heart. <J "You mean you are going to accept me and mv love?" he cried rapturously. "T am going to accept your love," was the curious answor. Leaning back in the little brougham he put his arm round h e r waist, -and for some instants his heart beat too fast for words. Hi;? eyes devoured her exquisite face with loving devotod gaze, but the girl did not meet his eyes; perhaps sho fearod that if she did so h e r lover would forget time and place, and become too demonstrative. She rested quietly within the strong encircling arm, but she kept h e r gaze tgrned sadly, curiously, from the window. ~ The sound of a clock striking aroused Eberhard Leigh from his dream of bliss to a remombranoo of duty. Ho was too thorough a soldier to forgot his work at even so supreme a moment as this. Ho got \ip and opened tho carriagodoor. " Y o u n ^ e d not stop the man, Elvira. I can jump out easily here. Good-bye, my own!" Ono long passionate glance, ono pressure of lips upon the tiny hands. " I shall seo you at your danco tomorrow evening." And Elvira watchod his tnll figure stride across the street, then pulling tho chock-string sho gave hor coachman now orders. Eberhard sat alone in his room in t h e b a r r a c k s a s t h e n e x t day'v evening grew late.

" " W h o is i t ? " in bored tone. T h e servant came in and took t h e precaution to shut tho door behind him. " I t ' s two of 'cm, Mr. Loigh, and I don't like t h e i r looks.

" D o you mean they are bailiffs, Sim^?" his master asked amusedly. " P l l take my oath on it, sir, or they a r e something worse. I've seen BO many of 'em in my time, I know 'era at a glance. You'd best take my advice, sir, and just slip quietly out while I " "Nonsense, SimB. I've nothing pressing; it must be some mistake. I'll settle it in a moment. Show the fellows u p . " But as Sims, with aggrieved face, stepped back to the door, he found t h a t the fellows had shown themselves up, and as the door was opened they made good their entrance. " J u s t what I expected," said tho servant to himself. " I knowed 'em a t a glance." And taking u p his position outside the door, he waited for following events. One man walked straight up to E b e r h a r d and put a heavy hand on his shoulder. "You are arrested, Mr. Leigh. You had best come along with us quiet and wo'll make no fuss." "Arrestedl W h a t do you mean, fellow?" With gigantic strength he threw off the impertinent grasp, but his companion came to the official's rescue. "You know well enough what for— a charge of forgery. You had best come along quietly. WThen gentlemen, do these things they must expect these results—sometimes." " F o r g e r y ! You are making some mistake, my man, for which you will have to pay pretty dearly. I would advise you to be a litWe more correct in your ideas before you come on an e r r a n d like t h i s , " " I t ' s correct enough. You've forged your uncle's, Lord Lester's, name for tho tidy sum of two thousand pounds. Here's the cheque if you want to see it a g a i n . " He held a piece of paper jiiet out of Leigh's reach. " I t is a splendid imitation of his lordship's writing, only the bank thought the sum an unusually large one, so they made a few inquiries, which resulted in his lordship's declaring it a distinct forgery; the bank are going to prosecute^" " B u t what evidence have you thatVl^ committed the forgery?" Leigh asked, his face set, his head uplifted proudly. " I tell you again, my man, you shall pay dearly for this mistake." "Plenty of evidence, sir, in the note you wrote yourself to the bank asking them to cash the cheque and give t h e money to t h e b e a r o r ; it would be quite safe, you told them. You signed tho note with your own name in full you see/1, holding it in its turn before Leigh's eyes, but beyond his reach. "You can't get over that. Mr. Leigh." (TO BI.

Moderation and regularity in eating, drinking and sleeping are conducive te longevity, and those who observe proper habits and use pure and efficacious remedies when sick, may accomplish immense labor with no apparent injury to themselves and without foreshortening their lives.

Y., Chamber of Commerce* and manufacturer of the celebrated Warner's Safe Cure, bas devoted much time and research to this sub act of longevity, and has arrived at the satisfactory conclusion that life may be prolonged and man's virile powers increased and preserved a t tbe same time by rational and natural means. Thousands of j>eraons are livingto- day—enjoying tbe blessing of perfect health and vigor—who will testify to the almost magical efficacy of Warner's Safe Cure in restoring them to physical potency and to the normal type of constitution, after they had almost given up hope ef life. After middle age, many becrin to lose their wonted visor of body, and thereupon give way to inerineBs and useless repining. Vet all such have within reach that which both renews youth and contributes to the prolongation of life. Warner's marvelous Safe Cures are in every drug store, and a r e now regarded as standard specifics throughout the civilized world. Tbe strong desire to attain old age— meantime retaining tbe virile powers of body and mind—is necessarily connected With the respect paid to aged persons, for people would scarcely desire to be old, were the aped neglected or regarded with mere sufferance. That is a high civilization in which age is made a source of distinction. Of all marks of respecf, that toage is most willingly paid, because every one wbo does homage to age may himself, eventually, become us ab.ect of such Lornage. _ • » i _ _ _ . Corncobs for ..Fuel. In the west, corncobs are a marketable commodity for fuel, and loads of cobs are brought into the cities from the farmers in the country and cold te the city people, who prefer them to wood for summer use, and in the winter use them for kindlings t o light the coal fires. Some pour a little kerosene over u few and use them as torchea to st rt the first. They ignite qui* kly and are very convenient. Cobs are kept picked up and saved in this country more economically than hardwood chips in the east. Thoy make a quick fire for summer use, and answer every purpose for cooking. Wood and coal are very expensive, and it is a matter «f economy to use these as a substitute. * In 1S50 "Brown's Bronchial Trochee" were introduced, and their success us a cure for Colds.

The three characteristics- of its business are aptly expressed bv the three words— MAGNITUDE, PROPORTION, PROGRESS. The income-and disbursements of the Company surpass those of any state ii* tho American Union. Its accumulated assets are greater than the capital of the Bank of England. Its New Insurance Written in 1888 was preater than the value of all farm hinds in the state of Cpnneticut. Its insurance in forcrf January 1, 1882, was grcuter than the value of the annual wheat crop of tbe1 United States, The business of the Company was never on a more satisfactory basis. The accrued and unpaid interest January 1, 1889, some of which was'not duo, wa$ less than one-half of one per cent, of the assets. The market value of securities over cost value on,tho Company's books is over three and a half milliorf dollars. The agency force is well organized and the business is continually inore'asinc. The death and expense rate is low, and tho income in 1888 exceeded the disbursements by nearly ten million dollars. The surplus of the Company is ampL and increasing, and the returns to policy-nOlders exceed ten' million dollars yearly. WHAT 15 ALL THIS TO YOU? It is a common saying that shoemakers' children go barefoot, and those who are familiar with Life Insurance arid its surpassing benefits sometimes neffleci to secure the safety of their o^vn families through 'its provisions. To those of our readers who have taken an interest in the business, condition and prospects of the NEW-YORK LIFK, as set forth in this report, we wish to make the personal appeal embodied in the heading of this article. We wish to impress ' • • - §sa Staffan, of Chelsea, has ened a new MILLINER" in the west side of John McGuin ness' store on north Main-st. and ha* a fine stock and the latest styles of MILLINER* GOODS I We would remind you that Life Insurance offers itself to YOU as the best helper and guardian of your family, your estate, and your old age. Is it wis© to flatter yourself with the thought that*you WILL SURELY ESCAPE the misfortunes thai overtake so many of your fellow men? Ts it prudent to leave that which so nearly concerns you and yours to uncertainty when j^ou might male it sure? If everything—life, health, prosperity—were to continne, there wonlcf be no need for you to insure your life; but all the insurance is bfcised upon the assumption—which is constantly proving true—that changes will come.

If this being should be detected no mercy would be given him by our citizens. At a special meeting of the common council last Saturday evening, the liquor bond of John H.

As Mrs. Sidney Thurston, who lives near Silver Lake, was driving from the depot last Saturday evening, one of the bolts that fasten the thills to the front axle became lose and lost out, letting the thills upon the horse's heels,which scared it so that it started to runaway and succeeded in getting as far as J.

Speaking of advertising it is often observed that some of the business people, whose announcements are seldom ever found in local papers, are always to be found in such catch-all schemes as clocks, hotel registers, desks, mirrors and other devices put up in places, which only attrack momentary attention and they are at once forgotten. One cannot help contrasting their enefficiency with the value of a local paper which brings the salient features of a man's business to the notice of hundreds of readers every week. It is always noticed that the most successful business men are those' who patronize the home paper and Gov. Luce has issued the following proclamation in honor of the centennial anniversary of the inauguration of George Washington! "The century gone has added many stars to the Union, but none that shines with richer blessing, loftier1 patriotism br more devout gratitude than Michigan; Soon, and a hundred years shall have passed since Geo. Washington , was inaugurated President of the United States. Expressing but a public sentrmenl, and following thi worthy precedent of dur Chief Executive; I do hereby appoint Tuesday, April 30th the centennial anniversary of that occassion, as a day of general thanksgiving and praise to Almighty God. Let the day appointed be a mark between tbe cemturies, bright for the lessons it shall teach: That individual sovereignty means individual responsibility; that our future glory as a'Nation rests upon our integrity, honor, Intelligence and fear of God; and the benefactors and deeds of valor are- worthy of memory and praise, tf these watchfires shall be kept btir^ing upon the altars of freedom, our Sag stars, tbved, respected and protected^ shall fly over the land we cherish, when another century shall have finished ita circle." A3 was advertised, Messrs. J . M. Buell and F. D. Teachout, agents for the Muskegon Chemical Engine Com*- pany, gave a public fire exhibition with one_oJf_their. chemical, engines on the lots south of the school house last Tuesday evening. A building was erected of pine lumber and thoroughly aatur^ ated with coal tar, when it was set on tire, in no time tbe building was a mass of flames, and after the fire has! gained considerable headway, and to the spectators was beyond control, the engine was &£t to work, and in less than ten minutes the fire was completely extinguished, much to the surprise of the audience. These gentle-1 men inform us that, the price of the engine that they exhibited is f600. I t would seem to usr that this engine is just what ihis village wants to protect it from destruction by the grim de-, stroyer. The price asked is but a small amount to what would be lost if flro arinnlri frar, « start \r\ nnma nt thai stores or residences, while we are without protection. There is not a citizen in this village nut what should be in*1 terested in this matter and do all in their power to encourage the purchasing of some means of protection from fire. As*it is now should a fire start in one of tbe stores, the only thing that could be done would be to stand1 and witness the whole block reduced to ashes, as even the water facilities are very poor in the vicinity of the stores.' We sincerely hope, and we believer tba*t we speak the sentiment of a maJ jonty of our citizens, that our village* soions- will complete the arrangemeiW for' the purchasing of this or toasti) other meanrof fire, protection ia the near future. y '" • r l r V ; > . \ in rX i 'V',, > " • • * * J' : i i !•}• v *; J ft •* Mmthntn ma*Mlt -- A.

He is related to the prominent Ewing family of that state, and is a cousin of General Thomas Ewing with whom he was educated. He was a personal friend of President Garfield, who contemplated appointing him to a territorial office, but who died -before the papers had been made out. He has been liv-* ing for several years in A r h . n u , where h3 has embarked in business. Before emigrating to Arizona he lived in Washington, I).*C., for some years and then in Coolorado and other wwle m states. He has a splendid war record, und served as lieutenant-colonel in General Eli Murray's cavalry brig&J.e. When mus'.erod out his co mmanding o'Ticor str/.ed t h a t he "had been the best soldier under difficult circumstances in his whole roramand." General Grant, when prosident, made him United States supervisor of internal revenue in the Dis.riot of Louisiana. General Wollley ought to make a good governor as ho has lived so long in the west t h a t he should know well the requirements of this part of our country. T h e story of Stanley's march of almost a thousand mile* across tho h e a r t of Africa after leaving headwater on the Aruwimi is one of incredible hardship and difficulty, says the Brooklyn Tim is. Hostile natives opposed the force through a good part' FARM AND HOKE. Care of t»« My*. •The care of the dam i» an exceedingly important matter. Very often the mare is not in condition to foal a healthy colt, and in consequence of her condition her own life is frequently endangered as well as the life and health of the colt It is really a wonder that there are not more bad results from foaling when we consider how very careless many are with the mares. Many of them are not properly fed. They are too fat, or not fat enough; they are exercised too violently or not exercised enough; they are k e p t in badly ventilated stables.and rcfully there could not be much more done to kill both mare and colt in many cases than is done. A correspondent of Wallace's Monthly gives some very excellent advice concerning tha care of the dam during the periods of gestation, foaling and suckling. Ho says that the care of the dam during gestation need not differ materially from tho care due to any good horse r:uder usual circumstances, except that she should be kept from other hor*es if possible for ten or more days after service, but be returned the twenty-first day for trial, then frequently at intervals of once a week. She should bo worked regularly, but with euro and moderation. For a few weeks before parturition do not feed in too great a bulk, but give nourishing food; keep the bowels open, and give plenty of rest. Prepare good comfortable quarters to foal in, and be present yourself t:> bar liabilities to accident. If in the spring, give the clam a few days' rest after foaling, but if your business will not permit, then you should have bred in the fall, so that you could, by reason of not being so pushed with work, as most farmers are in the spring. During the suckling period do not overheat or exhaust the dam; any unnatural condition of the dam at this time affects the milk und is communicated to the young, endangering and sometimes fatally injuring it, though with the fall colt these difficulties are not so likely to exist. At weaning time, if in the fa)', «io not stablo the colt and feed him corn, oats, and hay as you would a mature horse, but since vou chose to breed in spring and wean in fall, take the trouble to preparo his food, giving such as is easily digested, (iivecow's milk,bran-mashes, and moistened or steamed rough feed. Help him to do the hard work imposed upon him at this tho hardest season of the year. While tiiere are advantages in spring-breeding, yet wo incline to the opinion that it is bettor to breed in fall and wean in the spring, when tho tender grass and soft ground are, compared to the dry feed and hard floor, a paradise; when warm sunshine of the way, mr a fell by poisoned ar- and pleasant broczos are to tho rows and swamp fe.or, or deserted by, | darkness and unpleasant odors of the th«..aA/4»n. x)f tha fxv-,; t w .maA* winter barn as a "balm in Gilead" to redouble the life and value of the t h e dozen. Of the fov-o that made the mar^h oO per cent, were in one way or another lost; of theso left behind at Bunalya under poor Major liartlelot about three-quarters were lost. Stanley himself was ill for a month with fever, an illness which occupies but a sentence in his letter, but which is eloquent of the hardships inseparably connected with African exploration. One might be templed to enquire what end is served by all this suffering and hardship, this slaughter of tho natives this ranging back and forth through t h e pestilential swamps and forests. Yet if somewhat similar hardships and experiences had not been undergons on our own continent there would be no United States to-day. Perhaps t h e r e is room on the Congo and the Upper Nile for another nation as vast, prosperous and enlightened some day. — .^ Whiteiaw Keid is quoted as saying t h a t he will no'u remain long abroad a s tho American minister to France, but will resign in about a year and ret u r n to New York. Mr. Reid fully expected to be r-ppoint-'d to the court of St. James, and would not, under any circumstances, ac epL the French mission if not for the-fact-that-he wishos noither to offend the new administration nor to exhibit his chagrin by declining. The French mission is not tho diplomatic prize that it was in the days of the empire, and is at best, in these republican times, but a doubtful compliment. ,, embryo horse. « • ; > Idaho and Wyoming are moving for siatehood.

The majority of those that invest in new, and, in many cases, untried varieties, are, as a rule, inclined to expoct too much. The fact is that a difference in soil, climate and other conditions will very often make a considerable difference in the growth and yield of a large class of plants. And it is often the case that a complete change of conditions will so affect tho plants that the results will be, to say the least, very unsatisfactory. In many cases, and especially with Beed, one trial should not be accepted as conclusive, but in a majority of cases the best of what is raised should be selected and saved for seed, and a second trial be made. While it of course will not always bo the case, yet many times a second trial will give much better results, for no other re ;son than that they have become acclimated,at least to a considerable extent, and a much better growth and yield will be secured. Sometimes, in fact very often, the merits of some new varieties will be overestimated in order to sell, and one trial will bo sufficient to show that it is of no value. As a rule, there -ts-rto—special benefit- -to b% gained by making a change of varieties, unless an improvement can be secured. And the better plan is to plant or sow the greater portion of tho crop with the standard variety, trying the now only oira small scale until tho value is fully ascertained, »nd at the same timo it will not be well to expect too much. Not that there is considerable improvement being made, but it is so mixed with varieties that are brought out to sell as much as for any value there may be in them. It is a good plan to try new varieties, and especially so of seeds, as a very small investment will in a majority of cases be sufficient to make a trial, a n i then, if the first results are not satisfactory, a second trial can be made with very little trouble. Because one or two varieties that M M H *W^ ''*•;./ • •>v <i» •?;.$.' ffiB^nTf^ff^wTnSaj s have cons cleat to disco tinuiog to rities.

If you are look In? for early lamb keep your lantern t.-inamed and use it often these cold nights. Swamp moss is better than straw tor bedding, as it is a better absorbent and is not iu the way in the heap or in the soil. If you want a cow to do nflr .best, give h e r a chance by giving h e r just as good quarters and just as good care as your favorite horse. I t does not pay to winter all sorts and sizes of hogs in the same quarters and on the same food. Tho failure will be in proportion to the increas3d numbers. Everything about the barn likes an apple, oven the hens. Apples are cheap and plenty. Therefore don't forget that they have a g r e a t value as an appetizer, to say the least. One fanner plants peas among his potatoes, and after both have blossomed mows them off and cures them for sheep fodder, and says t h e potatoes do well treated in that way. I t is claimed that the use of arsenical •poisons in orchards has very perceptibly reduced the ravages of the codlin moth. The little apple maggott is now tho worst customer to deal with. Therp may bo some truth in the claim that weeds are beneficial by shading the soil, but they should not be allowed to ripen seeds, for rich soil is of little use when it is so weedy t h a t crops will not grow. Small vermin m i y be destroyed by, mixing common arsenic with melted tallow and cooling it iuto a cake. Small piecss of it may be put into crevices where cats cannot go. Rats; and mice eat this fat eagerly. The custom of husking and cribbing corn by farmers who havo silos is fast being abandoned- They have leurned that the most economical way of feed* ing and handling the crop is to put it all in the silo. Early spring pigs will make fat and large hogs by Christmas, but unless the. o are excellent accommodations for tho early pi^'s they will not be as large at the end of the year as those farrowed in April or May..

On talcing boiled eggs from the kettle, chip the shells on the ends to let the steam out and prevent their cooking more.

When pies are ready for the oven, put little bits of lard all over the top pasto, lotting some iee water run over it, and place at once in the oven.

T h e recent explorations on tho Island of SOB C l w e * * J \ w h l o h is due west from Del Mar, thlaooenty, but sixty miles, says t h o Sua Francisco Chronicle, has arftfeed interest in the history of the other islands of the coast. The Santa Barbara island* la the early part of the present century were inhabited ,by» IndianJ of comparative white complexions T, bo spoko a peculiar language. They were supposed to be descendants of 'tie Aztec race of historic fame. There is no record of how these people came to be upon the islands or when they first settled there, but it is probable that the islands were inhabited by them before t h e founding of the California misssions by t h e Franciscan friars. Otter, soal» foxes, and fisho9 were to be found In abundance on the islands and in the adjacent waters, and upon these the natives subsisted, using the flesh for food, the skins for clothing and tents, and the l o a o s for making hunting implements. According to tradition Indians from the Alaskan islands frequensly made trips to tho Santa Barbara islands for the purpose of hunting. During one of these visits t h e Alaskans foil upon tho natives, killing all the males, and after hunting for some time they left the north, abandoning the women to their fate. .The mission fathers, learning of the fate of the woman, determined to have them removed to the mainland and for this purpose engaged a schooner. Upon arriving at the island of San Nicholas the men proceeded to remove the women and such few personal effects as they had to the boat. When this had been accomplished and all were ready for embarking one of the women made afiign that she had forgotten her child and started back after i t While she was gone a severe wind sprang up, which scon increased, to a gale and compelled the little schooner to put to sea for safety. As the wind k e p t up for several days the captain ran into San Pedro, intending to return for tho woman who had been loft. At San Pedro tho Indians wore disembarked and taken to the missions at Los Angeles and San Gabriel, whore they wore cared for. From San Pedro the schooner sailed to Santa Barbara, and from there to Monterey, where she had been ordered. Thus was the poor woman left on a bleak island out in the broad expanse of tho great Pacific, with no companions save the wild wolf and the Indian dog, with whicli tho island was infested. The news of the woman having been left behind spread rapidly, but no further effort was made to rescue her. The natural supposition was that she had perished, and in the course of a few years tho subject had passed from the minds of the people. In 18,01, just fifteen years later, a hunter named Nidcvor and a couple of companions visited the island of San Nicholas and were astonished to find indications which l e i them to believe the woman was still alive. Footprints which had been made in the previous , rainy season were to be seen in tho now dry and hard soil, and from the size and general appearance tho hunters concluded they had been made by a woman. Some small, circular inclosures made of brush were also discovered, and in them some dried seal's blubber. Further than this the huts gave no indication of having been inhabited for some time. A strong wind arising the party put to sea without making any further discoveries. The next winter, 1852, Niuovor again visitod the island, and upon arriving immediately landed and searched for fresh signs of of the womin. The huts discovered on the first trip were unchanged,, but the seal blubber seemed to have been replenished by a fresh lot. Some wild dogs were found in the vicinity, and the hunt>rs thought it likely tho woman had fallen a prey to these beasts, as they were quite ferocious. In 1853 the same party planned another expedition for tho purpose of hunting and making one more attempt to settle the question as to whether the woman was still alive. They searched m poeed to leave behiwl. In t h o of a few days she nod becomo at in the boat and helpe&in whatever w: •be could in the work aboard. 4ftoj<- a month's hunting the party m l l i i | l | f r Santa Barbara, where the woman wpr regarded with wonder and curiosity.

His earliest attempt* a t conversation are recorded and repeated in his hearing to each visitor in tho home of the infant prodigy. His feeblest endeavors to be funny are applauded to the echo, and remarks in which the casual listener would fail to detect a grain of wit are quoted as veritable boris mots. While it is quite natural that each mother crow should think her young one snowy white, and that every human mamma should be positive that never were thei-e such bright and beautiful children as her own, it is nevertheless rather hard upon the impartial portion of society at large to condemn them to share in this sweeping admiration. In joy, as in grkf, all but one's nearest and dearoat so:m*grow weary of being called upon for sympathy. The constant drain exhausts the fountain. The awakening and nourishment of pertness in children is only too easy a task. There is a latent something, call it original sin, total depravity, inherent vanity, or-what you will*...that needs very little encouragement to bo aroused to life. A child is seldom entirely to blamo for his own pertness and forwardness. If his tendency to putting himsolf into conspicuous positions, to taking p a r t in general conversations, and asserting himself at all times and seasons had boon judiciously nipped in tho bud by parents, these foibles would never have swelled to the dimensions of faults. As it is absurd to expect an infant to exerciso a repressive influence upon himself when an exactly opposite course has been taught him by his parents.— Harper's Bazar.

N.P. f CHAPTER II. Leigh gazed at the paper, amazed, and scarcely crediting the evidence ol his own eyes. Exactly like his handwriting each word oa the letter ap-^, peared; exactly like his usual signature the one inscribed at the bottom of the paper; yet he knew fully that he had never written such a document, never sent any cheque to the bank within tho last month. •'This is forgery," he said firmly, indicating the paper still held in the oncer's hand. " I denounce it as such without the slightest hesitation. I never wrote one word upon that paper.11 "You can say all that at the trial, sir," was tho sceptical reply. "You'll have every chance of explaining there, of course. Meantime my duty is " Ho made a significant step forward. "Who was the bearer of this note? who received the cash? When? How?11 Leigh demanded sternly. The officer made a gesture as much as to say, "You know all this much bettor than I," but he answered: "A footman in livery . presented cheque and note—the carriage to which ho belonged was waifng a few yards from the park. You see in your note Mr. Leigh, you request that the whole sum may be paid in gold, and that struck the cashier as a little queer; but thinking the man was your own servant, and knowing the note was a genuine one in/your handwriting ho cashed the cheque as requested. Afterwards,when enquiries were made he found the servants livery was Mr. Beaucharap's, not yours; but the footman, on being privately questioned, said that you wore certainly in his mistress's carriage at that time. He h i d opened the door for you to ge< into the carriage before he drove to the bank, and just gave the bas of money into the carriage window into your hands as soon as he had got it.1 Leigh had staggered back and stood white and silent,- with a look of horror in his eyes which his companions took for a certain sign of guilt. Rousing himself with an effort, however. Leigh questioned in a voice unlike his own, hoarse and strained and harsh: **I>id the mnn see me take it?" "He couldn't say for certain, I believe; there was a crush, just there, and ho had to jump quir^k b;ick upon his box, to get out of the way of another carriage; but he knowod yo x were there. Then they drove back to pick up Miss Beauchamp.who had just got down at a shop near; and the footroan supposes that when his young lady got in you got out, as he did not see you when they reached home. When was it, you ask? Yesterday morning—no earlier!'' A broken inarticulate exclamation fell .rora Eber"hard's lips; the look of incredulous, over-powering, unbearable horror in his eyes deepened, his features grow more ghastly, more haggard; he seemed paralyzed for the moment, and the practiced eyes of his arresters construed each sign into one of confessed guilt. "You must come along with us now, sir." One of them advanced and grasped his arm. "Best come quietly, as I said before, and we will call no attention to it." "You dare touch me, impertinent - cur!" Like a lion rousing from a torpor, e soldier shook off the presumptous arm, then with one well-directed blow from tho shoulder he laid his captor flat upon the floor. The second man made a dive at him but Sims thought proper to interfere now, and caught the man by th»shoulder, as he shouted: "MLike haste, Mr. Leigh!11 And Leigh dashed from the room, and down theiftairs, and out across the barraek-yard, and into tho street,* but aa-he ran, fleet, strong, long-breathed, live as a stag, ho heard behind him o sounds of pursuit. With such a start as he had gained, Eberhard Leigh distanced his pursuers with ease. He heard behind him their shouts as naturally their number swelled, and a veritable chase began; but he laughed to himself as, far ahead of them all, he darted down a stable yard, and there waited, quietly rocov* ©ring breath, until he saw them all sweep by. Then, doubling, he came out of the darkness, turned, and walked Along, by short cuts he knew, m# : \0^ •wiftly butquiatly in tba direction, of the Beanchamps' house. As he dashed from hi» own room he had the presence of mind to snatch, up bis hot. and the night was fortunately a dry one; his boots bore no traces of mud—his appearance showed no sign of anything unusual as he gained the brilliantly-illuminated house and easily made his way up the crowded stairs, greeting friends and acquaintances as he passed them. B^t one person alone he had come to see—one face alone he searched for, scanning the dazzling throng with his steel-like grey eyes until they fell upon Elvira, the belie. Superbly beautiful she looked in a gown of pale blue and carnation, wondrously mixed, like the sky with a sunset's glow upon it. Her lovoly face was colored brightly, her eyes shone like stars; her manner was, perhaps, a little more animated than usual—a little less composed, and when she caught sight of Eberhard, she suddenly grew pale, and moved away from, not towards, him. But with a quick resolute step forward he arrested her. " I want to speak to you, Elvira. I have come for that purpose alone—to speak to you, possibly for the last time." She gave one quick, frightened, upward glance, then veiled her eyes behind their long lashes; with an involuntary movement she pre»sed her hand to her heart, and the color now quitted hor lips, as it had quitted her face a moment ago; she lookoJ on the point of faintin,?. Leigh watched every change in her appearance with keen glittering eyes, from which every sign of t3ndornes3 had vanished. "You appear very much aTectod by my appearance, Elvira; yet it is not unexpected, surely.1' "You look—you seem so strango!" sho faltered. " I have a strange taloto tell." He had drawn her into the conservatory, which at present was empty save for themselves. Elvira sank into a chair, for her limbs seemed unable to support her, and she attempted to hide her agitated face with her fan. Eberhard calmly took it from her, and kept his keen unfaltering glance upon her changing countenanoe. "I can't spare time for you now. I must go back to my quests—to receive them. You forgot I am a hostess," she stammered. "1 forget nothing. You must hear what I have to say bofore you return to those people. Elvira, I have just been arrested on a charge of forgery." A shiver went through her frame; hei' lips quivered; she made an effort to recover herself. '•Arrested! Hut you are hjre!*' she gasped. "I am here pro tern. I have es :apcd —to bo arrested again, no dnibt, but bofore then it was imperative that I saw you. Elvira, who forgod my uncle's name for two thousand pounds?" "Why—why on earth should you ask me?" "I will not ask you again if you can look me straight in the face am'; tell ma on your-, honor that you ku.ow nothing about it." He took her two cold trembling hands in hi* as lie spoke, and holding her thus, bent his faco nearer to hers. "Of course I know notiiing," she tried to stammer, but it was a miserable attempt, and a failure. Her eyes wero lifted spasmodically, thon dropped. She trembled from'head to foot, "Merciful Heavens! I could have borne anything rather than this," the man groaned, an:1 dropping the girl's hinds, bo loaned with dn attitude of despair against the doorway; still he blocked Elvira's road. She could not escape, though she looked around wildly for means of do- The stem voice with the tensity of, shallow selfish • 9* n »w»u bis in lain as Elvira's ild never unmg so. Silence, broken only by the hoavy irregular breathing of the man leaning against the doorway, fell upon tho faintly-lit, heavily s:en£ed conservatory. Upon the silenca came the discordant merriment of tho music in the room beyond. Tho band was playing a mad, merry polka, and its strains jarred in horriblo mockery upon the suffering within a few yards of the quickly moving foot, the bright voices whose sound retched Leigh's oars. Silence, seeming horribly long to Elvira, who.-5e'"'every pulse was quivering with impatient dread, and lasting until in despair she almost broke it; then Eberhard moved his position, and, turning, faced his companion. Such a dainty exquisite figure she lookod, shadowed by tho heavy graceful palms, outlined by the roseate light, so fair and frail and lovely, and capablo of this! "Deliberately, then"—his voice rang stern, though low—"deliberately, then, you planned this thing. With it in your mind you smiled and pourod sweet looks and words upon mo yesterday. All cleverly you lured me into tho trap; by inviting mo to drive with you you arranged—how, it matters not; tho facts are enough for mc—that I should be supposed to be iu your brougham and reaoive tho money while you wore supposedly out of it. You told me you would accept my love, I remember. You took it, • and in roturn you gave me—this!" derstand—made the; tones quiver and brake. She could not understand the pain, but she was quick to take advantage of the softened tone. "JJberhard, you will not betray me?" she gasped, looking in his face now, clinging with convulsive grasp to his hand. "It was in despair I did it. I was threatened with prison. I thought your uncle would never find out—I thought—I thought " "The love you valued thup could bear this," he finished bitterly. "You promised to bear anything for me," she caught up his words wildly. "You said you loved me well enough for anything. Oh, Eberhard, you are a man and clever and strong—you will know how to get out of this scrape! Oh, spare me disgrace and exposure; it would kill me! Show me mercy!" "Such mercy as you have shown me," with a strange kind of momentary laugh. "You believed in my love, indeed you gave it a heavy test. Weil," he drew a deep breath, and the tatritiod lovely eyes glanced up imploringly, "for sake of my love I will bear even this. You need fear nothing from me." Her face brightened, her speech came back; she would have poured a volley of thanks upon him, but as the last slow strained words left his lips the man turned, and without further look at the beautiful face he had loved so madly—the face which had lured him to ruin—ho went out, leaving her forever. Passing like a man in c dream through the brilliant throng, heeding nothing, seeing no one, but making his way mechanically to the outer hall, Leigh was arrested there by a little hand timidly placed on his. and, looking up, he met the deep, soft, pitifu1 eyes of Dorothy•Beauchnmp. "Mr. Leigh, i* anything the matter?" tho child asked gcn.ly. "Ever so many people have nodded and spoken to you just now, and you never seemed to see or hear." Before those lovely eye?, so like her cousin's in shape and color, but so much more womanly and sweet in expression, the mist veiling Eborhard's brain Boomed to clear a little. "Dorothy," ho said, taking both her slender hands in his, "will you bid me good-bvcT I am going away." ••Going! Wlnro to?" Ho shook his head with a bitter mirthless sm'.le. "Anywhere. What does it matter? Gjod-byo, little Dorothy! Shall you soon forget me entirely, I wonder?" " I never forget my friends," the child said with quaint old-fashioned gravity. "Do you mean that you are g':;ng out of England, Mr. Leigh?" "Assuredly, if I c m manage it," with a shrug Dorclhy did not understand. "I will give you a l;e?p-al:e," she said with a sudden rcsolii i>n. "You have givon me lots of preccils, and I have never given you anything. i will give you this; it is a lucky crescont, Mr. Leigh." Round her throat, above tho lowcut neck of her dre ;s, :-ho wore a slender gold chair, attached to which was a curious old-fashioned little gold ornament, set with small diamonds. "You can wear it on your watch chain; but I will give you cha;n and all," she said, taking it off and handling it to him. For some reason tho pretty child ish gift—the pretty alYootionato manner in which it was given—touched man deeply. "Thank you, Dorothy: T will wear this always, and think of you," ho said softly. Then he bont and pressed his moustached lips to the b.-oid white forehead. A sudden crimson mountel swift and burning all over the childish face; but Leigh did not notice it. "Good-bye, little Dorothy!" he said, and the next moment he was g o n e - out from the old. familiar, happy life, whose loss was the price he must pay for the love he had given so well and so unwisely.

WASHINGTON, April 23, 1889. Though tyring lias won a. late victory over winter, cowslips andtraili'ij? arbutus are out upon the city's waste places and tbe buds upon the trees are bursting into leaves. Some flowers greet tbe passer-by with sujrgestivc fragrance of tfreun fields and hi ph. blue skies, and the day dreams that *'in pari are prophecies and in part are longings wild and vain." If tbe practical individual has carefully erased from his memory the records of youth, these splendid days make him thirsty with visions of the near time when mint shall be fragrant in tbe glass and claret and ice be a solace. On dewn town streets, colored urchins who ate frightfully dirty despite ".he increase in real estate values, now offer arbutus at five cents a bunch in the morning and two for five cents in the evening, furnishing a striking illustration of the truth that everything comes to him who waits. The grounds of the Executive Mansion are nearly as green as in midsummer, and a white capped nurse girl bringing little lien Mclvee, President Harrison's grand-child, for a romp. adds to the familarly rural scene. A host of children have played on the White House lawns every seas in for years and regard the place a* children's free ground. A number of the children have been members of the Executive household. Little Tad Lincoln used to roll hoop^ down the hill when the band played on summer afternoons/ and strut about in his miniature uniform of a lieutenant, playing at war. with many a shrill, piping order to his i mr»gi• ary troops. Then cam e A ndrew Johnson, Jr., a boy of twelve with a propensity for stuffing himself on evciry imaginable edible and lolling about under the trees. Then Jesse Grant, to riot with other children, after he had ridden home from school on his Shetland pony- Then the demure Fannie and Scott Hayes, good children who always keep their clothes clean and their noses duly wiped. Then the Garfield children, with base-ball and bicycle, ruling from March to midsummer in high glee, when, their brie! reign closed with the awful trngedv of their father's death. Here *trolied Allen Arthur, tall and undeveloped. and his sister Nellie, who possessed her father's mind and her mother's face, the heritage denied her brother. Thus the ghosts of the \Yhite House.' number not a few childish faces, and to one with a good memory a score of these familiar spirits come up even at noontime on the fairest day of all the spring. The only false note in the overture of spring is afforded by the presence of the office seeker. tVom.the contemplation of nature, President Harrison turns to grapple wij,h political delegations and to wrestle with office seekers. The sunlight that strays into the corridors of the Departments, falls aslant of office seekers by the dozen, seated on the 6ofas, occupying the chairs, leaning against colums, lolling in windows, ranged along the wall, waiting, waiting. The( variety of dress is as great as the variety of faces and expression. A little, thin, sensitive, bloodless old man,.with an ancient silk hat and a CHELSEA, MIGtflO-AW.

Farmers are much interested in the announcement that a simple device has been perfected which will make them independent of the twine trust. For some weeks a harvester has been at work in tho tall sedsre grass alonp, the Missouri bottoms opposite Quincy, binding with wire.

Watch was kept on the stock known to have been bitten by the dog, but no signs of anything wrong was discoyerd until Friday, April 5th, when one of the steers, they did not think had been bitten, became ugly, chasing the other cattle* and it was tied up and grew worse until last Sunday morning it was killed.

Payers, who has served seven of a twelve years' sentence in the Ionia house of correction for burglary. The case has been the subjdut of newspaper discussion for years. On the morning of May 3d, 1880, the home of Seueca Coolidge, at Lyons, was euiored by a burglar. Coolidge was awakened and ho grappled with the intruder, but was shot during the struggle, und died four years later from the wound. A pair of shoes were found and identified as the proper;y of Rogers. With this clue detectives were placed upon his track and one year later be was found, in Wisconsin. He was tried and convicted purely on circum stantial evidence and sentenced to Ionia for twelve years. Within the past year a desperate character named Frank Ram bo died in the Illinois penitent ary, where he was serving a &>;years sontencofor robbery. Statements made by him previous to his death, corroborated by events for the first time developed when Rogers made his application for pardon,1 induced Gov. Luce to believe Rogers was innocent. The pardon bo^rd took up the case one year ago, and after after an investigation, denind the application. Two months ago the executive prevailed on the beard to recousider the case, and upon additional testimony and the earnest recommendation of Mr. Davis, the prosecuting attorney of Ionia county when Rogers was convicted, the board unanimously recommended his pardon. He is now 47 years old. — .*. _ A n o t h e r P i o n e e r G o n e . Col. Henry Raymond died in Detroit on the lath inst. Col.

Air PlayeeV The Alameda, which arrived in San Franciaao April 1ft, brought news of the disaster at bftmoa i r o n the Samoan and newspaper*. The hurricane bekurday morning, March 1«, after two heavy weather. Heavy seas began over the rests, and at t v e o'clock (temoon toe German ship AdJer hijrh and dry upon the reef. She together well. About the same t i n e Eber went on tie-reef, her heavy gun* helping to keel her over. Only one oUtcer end four men were saved. The United States ahlpNipsie w a s h e s - . died w e l t The captain aad officer* planned all along to beach her, and this was done successfully. Seven men were drowned, but even these would have been saved had to the ship, in the morning the Olga collided Hipaic, doing the latter consider* lage, carrying away her smokebeam launch, and part of her bul- On account of the amoke-*t<sck betoken off the furnaces would not keep a full head of steam on. Excepting for thin accident the Nipsic, which hen powerful eoginea, might have ridden out the gale in safety. On Thursday morn tag the Nipsic was successfully floated out toner old anchorage. Her propeller was too much injured to be repaired at Samoa, and her rudder was gone. The Calliope and Vaudalia wera surging about and collided several tiqoes. The English boat nnal)y slipped her moorings and succeeded in getting out to sea, steaming with full power against the hurricane. JSveryoue on shore thought she could not possibly steam out agaiuat such a terrlnc aea and wind, but she steadily but slowly fought her way out against the hurricane. A s she passed the uagship of the American admiral, the American sailors gave her three cheers. Capt. Kane said on his return to Apia that the cheers gave his men renewed energy, as they were all broken down. The Vaudalia lost her boats one after the other. Her captain was trying to beach her when a great wave cast her on the reef. The seas continued to break over her. Help w<i» impossible. Men were seen holding on to every conceivable part of the ship. A fulling Bpar struck Capt. Schoonmaker on the head and he bung on to the rail until he WAS so weakened by successive waves that one curried him over. Muny officers and men were washed oat of toe rigging. Meantime the Treuton drifted down and collided with the Vandalia, aud every one who was not fortunate enough to get aboard tne Trenton \/xi lost. The Trenton meanwhile had her bridge ports brokeu open, letting the sen through the opening, fretting into the tires. i?he collide! with the Ulga and smashed the German badly. Schoolmaster George Williams of the Vandalia says that us the Trenton finally bore down on mem, with the certainty of crushing the men in the Vandalia s rigging to death, her sailors in the face of certain destruction gave the V andalia three rousing cheers. With heavy hearts, but with hearty wills the cheer was answered from the Vandalia. The people on the shore were watching, helplesB, when tue sound of music came across the water. It was the Trenton's ship's bund holding on in shelter of the cabin, playing their last hymn, "The Star Spangled tian.oer." The people on the shore were paralyzed with astonishment, but the hymn was p.ayed through and tho ship went down with her men in sight of those ou land. Stiu tilled to her gun decks with water and became a totul wroL-k. The Alameda brings news that the paymaster of the German ship Adle.- was shut ur in his stateroom lor 48 hours after the vessel was thrown upon thebuueh. When rescued he wus insane, and lias since died. The body of u Germun suilor was p.cl.cd up on one of the reels in double irons. This shows that orders had not been given to release the prisoners from at least one of the German ships. Just before the Vandalia struck the captain ordered nil prisoners released, and all irons struck olT, and it is a remarkab.e i;.et that all the prisoners escaped With their lives. When tho Alameda lclt Apia 25 bodies had been recovered, including those of dipt. Shoonmaker and P a j muster Aarms. With the exception of five or six it was impossible to identify them, owing to the terrible manner in which they were mutilated. Home of the bodies were iound six or eight miles down the coast, outside the reef. Atout twelve of tho bodies were buried in trenches in a cemetery, and others were buried where found. ..Thirty injured Vandalia seaman were left "at Honolulu"'fty tlfe Alameda, and will be brought hereby the Umatilla. The naval cadets refuse to talk, as they are to give testimony in Wash nuton. Photographs of the wrecked vessels give the only adequate idea of the force of the hurricane. Tho German ship Adler was absolutely thrown bottom side up, as though she had been an ordinary whaleboat, while.the Nipsic looks as through she had been bombarded. The losses in. tho merchant shipping wore: The Godefiol, bark, ; 62 tous, a total wreck; the Lilly, schooner, from which two live were lost, a totll wreck; tho Upotft, schooner, tW tons, very likely to become u total wreck; the Fituau, cutter, 1¾ tons, a total wreck; tho Tafun, schooner, total wreck; the Nukunono, sketch, ashore; the Vaitelle, cutter, ]i\ tons, mast cut away; the Ltumapu, schooner, small damage, but is repaired and is going with the mails to Tutrulia; a little schooner belong ing to Mr. Meredith, about five tons, ashore, but not much injured.

"pfa is under marmo guard. The people have been extremely kind to the suitors. King Mataafa came down to the admiral, pointing out tho danger of sickness break mg out among the men in consequence of exposure to the rains. . He offered, ou bo half- of the S.imoans, to vacate all the houses in Apia and allow the American sailors to have the use of thera. Admiral Kimberly thanked Mataafa warmly, but stated to him it would be impossible to control the men if they were scattered around among the native houses. He promised to consider the offer, however, if the situatou became more pressing. There is no mediate danger of the supply of provisbeieg exhausted. Several parties whom contracts have been made or the feeding of men have plenty of provision* on hand, and tho steamer Lybeok will arrive from Sydney in a few days and a fresh supply will be obtained from ber. The officers and men of the Vandalia lost nearly everything, and a t many on the Trenton fared but Uttta itfctvThe officers have scattered all over the town^aod have secured such accommodations as cathJa^had.

To another he did the same, with a like rosult. H a v i n g thus g o t t h e two alongside, fast asleep, he dragged one on top of the other, and left them a moment; they slumbered rJlacidly in that position. He then ran a-muck at them, bei n g in slippers, and upset the pair, and ordered them loudly to close tbe shuttors. They both g o t up, e v e s wide open, and apparently conscious; one walked gravely down stairs, the other retired, with all semblance of reason, to t h e pantry alongside. Tho one who we>it down came up again in two minutes, still with his e y e s wide open, and leisurely lay down to sleep again; the*«other w e found fast snoo/.ing in the pantry on a stool. We took them up and shook them violently; they rubbed themselves, and went to sleop again. D r a g g i n g them into the dining-room, without a word, they silently set about their work, fastening shutters and doors. "Do y o u think thoy are awake?" asked my friend. "Tell them to g e t y o u something." I did so. N o response. I repeated the order. They quietly went bark, their work completed, and dropped asleep upon thoir mat*.

For this report returns have been received from 927 correspondents representing 696 townships. Six hundred and twenty-five of these reports are fromn£21 townships in the southern four tiers of counties; and 161 reports are from 138 townships in the central counties. The condition of wheat on April J, compared with vitality and growth of average years, was in the southern four counties, 89; in the central counties, 92; and in the northern counties, 95. In the southern counties the condition April 1,1888, was eight per cent lower; in 1887 it was one per cent lower, and in 1886 two per cent lower than on April 1 of this year. The total crop of the State in 1888, as estimated last October, was 23,581,504 bushels. The crop of 1887 was 22.729,882 bushels, and of 1886, 20,347,246 bushels. The average annual production in the ten years 1878-87 was 27,206,852 bushels. The winter has been remarkable for •mildness and lack of moisture. In the southern section of the State, -where more than eighty-five per cent of the wheat crop grown, the average temperature of December was three degrees, ot January five degrees, and of March three and one-fourth degrees warmer than the normal as determined by observations for a loog series of years. In February the temperature was six degrees below such normal, but at no time during the month did it rise much above the thawing point, hence the injury to the growing wheat was not so great as when hard freezing and deep thawing frequently alternate. In November the total precipitation (rain and melted snow) in this section was 4-hundredths of an inch more than the normal, but in every other month since seeding there has been a deficiency, tn October the defiency amounted to one inch, in December to 80-hundredthsof an inch, in January to 29- hundredths of an inch, in February to one and 26-hundredths of an inch, and in March to one and 20-hundredths of an inch. Compared with the normal the total deficiency in the six full months since wheat was sown is four and 51-bundreths inches. On the 31st cf March and dn the 1st and 2d of April rain foil quite generally throughout the southern part of the State, varying in amount from one-half inch to two inches at the different meteorological stations. Of course this will greatly benefit wheat and qrass. Correspondents have commented very fully on the condition of wheat and clover, but the statements from different localities are so nearly identical that we make no extracts from them. Wheat attained small, growth in the fall, the winter has been an open one and the plant had made no spring growth up to date of mailing reports; yet the wheat has wintered wejLfind no fears are expressed that the^lo^s, from winter-killing is greater tfranin average years. The total number of bushels of wheat reported marketed in the eight months August-March, is 12,963,009, or about 55 per cent of the crop of 1888. The number of bushels reported marketed in the same months of 1887-8 was 11,- 304,737, or 50 per cent cf the crop of 1887. In 1887-8 reports were received from about 50 per cent, and in 1888-9 from about 72 per cent of the elevators and mills in the southern four tiers of counties. The condition of clover meadows and pastures is not promising. Those seeded previous to last year are believed to be entirely ruined, by the drouth of last summer, however, rather than by winter-killing. Last year's seeding, where there was a "catch" is fairly good. The figures for the southern counties are 85; the central, 89; the northern, 95; and average for the State, 87.

This in a branch of industry that brouga our farmers a large amount of cash, and with a good season is tho best faying crop that can be planted. As the time for planting is near at hand every person that desires to plant cur cumbers this year, should apply to Mr. Syk^s for contracts at the nearest con* venient time, to injure a chance to plant.. Judge Brown, of the United States District Court, at Detroit, rendered a decision recently that is of more than ordinary interest to inventors and to those who manufacture invented articles for which patents have beeo secured OE applied for. The action grew out of an alleged infringement on A gasoline vaporizer for stoves, invented by one Straight and further improved and manufactured by one Claytoni Straight bad applied for a patent^ and used the term so often seen, "patent applied for," on his vaporizer. The court held that this was no protection* that there could be no infringement of a patent until the patent had been issued, and none had yet been granted in this case. If Straight secures a pat' ent it will hold good against Clayton and all others from the date of its issue, but until that time the manufacture and sale of the article is free to all. The supposition has been heretofore that if the words "patent applied for1' were branded, stamped or printed on any article it would serve as a legal notice against imitatorsv but this,, it seems, was erroneous. Manufacturers of an article not . yet patented are,- under this decision, exempt from paying royalties even though a patent may have beenapplied for. They cannot, at least, be compelled to pay it, unless by mutual agreement. This may work hardship in some cases, as, through delays in the Patent Office, it often takes a great deal of time to secure examination and action upon applications, but this is only temporary. In the end, if the invention is patentable, the inventor will secure a patent for the full statutory term,-which will" not include the period between the application for the patent and the granter of it.—[Ann Arbor Courier.

Preacher.? may jcomo and preachers may go, but tho Sunday newspaper will go on and grow more voluminous from year to year. The reverend centlemen and fanatics who are resolved to crush the Sunday paper do not take into consideration the fact that a greater part of the paper published Sunday morning is a product of Saturday's labor, and that nearly all of the articles in tho Sunday paper are written days before they are set in type. The only part of the Sunday paper produced after Saturday midnight is tho telegraphic and belated local news, the final make-up and press-work. These zealous workers will do better to consolidate their efforts in an effort to stop the publication of a Monday morning issue, as the paper for t h ; s day, and not the Sunday morning edition, is really the product of Sunday's Work.

T h e importance of this groat trunk line cannot easily be over estimated. It will open up a vast empire of wonderful mineral and agricultural resources and superior climate. Immigration will be attracted from eastern and south-eastern Europe, and capital will follow in the wake of the emigrant. There is no doubt in t h e minds of well informed people that Siberia will ultimately become one of the richest and most prosperous countries in t h e world. The western terminus oi the great Siberian railway will be Siatoust, a mining city in the province of Orenburg, connected with the great Russian railroad system by a branch road now in process of construction. It will, touch the cities of Omsk, Tomsk and Irkutsk, and strike the great river Amur at a point which h a s not yet been definitely located. C a s s l u t R e y n o l d s , a n Old C o w - Boy, S p e a k s of E a r l y Life o n t h o R a n g e s . The cow-boy from the west, if intelligent at all, can make himself interesting in the tales of western life and incidents of the plains, At present the Iceland has for a guest Cassius Reynolds, who has been on the trail fifteen years, and has the credit of having brought the largest herd of cattle —10,- 000 head—from Oregon to Nebraska that has ever been handled. Reynolds nipkes his home and headquarters at Fremont, Neb., but he buys and '•runs'1 his cattle through the season in Oregon. The feat mentioned above was accomplished ut a time when there was much danger from the redskins, and t h a t Reynolds should bring so many such a distance has always bean considered remarkable. His modesty proved a barrier to eliciting any details cf the trip beyond tho mere fact that iu going through Idaho he was attacked by a band of Indians on the war path, but by tho pluck and determination of his cowboys the reds were driven off and the destination was reached in safety with the loss of but few cattle.' In speaking about getting ready to start east Mr. Reynolds several times alluded to "the round up." He said in explanation of this term: "Tho expression is purely one. of western ranch lifo and rnnms a groat deal. One often hears about cowboys rounding up some cattle, but that is very simple, and consists merely in backing the broncos and herding a few head of cattle that have been grazing close at home and driving them into a corral. A very different affair from rounding up is 'the1 round up. This is the great occasion of the plains, so far as ranching is concerned. The preparations for it are extensive., for the work to bo dono is arduous and important. In the pursuit of their business ranchmen arc obliged to seek the plains of the far West where plowshare has as yet left untouched the natural grass, and thousands of acres lie unbroken by the presence of tho cultivated farm. Here, unrestrained, vast herds of cattlo are allowo.l to run at will, left to themselves to pick and graze all through the summer months, the keepers never giving a thought as to their whereabout?. These keepers live in camps and form a small-sized village, passing the time in eating, drinking and sleeping. Kach separate camp is the owner or keeper of hundreds of head, and, though they all run together, no difficulty is experienced in each claiming his own, and, strange to say, it is seldom one is missing. It is this getting the cattle together that is called the round-up. The day is set, and all the camps are notiflol t j be in readiness. A general rendezvous is settled upon, and then each camp is stationed at different points of the compass, forming a circle around that central point. At daybreak in each camp tho cook prepares a hearty breakfast, after which the cowboys ride at breakneck spoed over the country to certain stated points, and from there they begin a gradual closing in, driving all the cattle in sight before them to the central rendezvous. When they have cometogether a vast herd of cattle numbering perhaps some six to eight thousand head arc gathered together. Here begins an interesting piece of work called •cutting out,' and it consists in separating cows with calves by their sides from the rest and driving them into a corral. A cowboy rides headlong among the terrified cattle and, catching sight of his employer's brand upon a cow, never loses sight of her until she is safe within the in closure. Here the branding is done. Fires are lighted to heat the irons, which consist of straight edges and half circles, and with these shapes every letter and almost every usual brand can be burned on the hide. Three men work in each branding gang; one holds the head, another the hind legs and the third applies the iron. "In the corral, too, some dexterous work is done with the lasso in catching the wild and frightened calves that are to be marked. When a full-grown steer is to 'roped' the cowboy rides after him at full speed, and while the animal is straining every nerve to get away throws the loose around his neck, secures the other end to the horn of his saddle and at a signal from his rider the pony braces himself for the shock and the wild Texan is brought to the ground. During the round-up tho stampede is the great danger to bo feared. Little trouble is ever had in daylight, but at night a bright flash of lightening, the barking of coyotes or the scampering of a single steer may frighten a whole herd and start thorn flying in the wildest'confusion. When a stampede occurs the cowboys ride ahead of the running mass and endeavor to 'circle' the foremost animals and of straight ahead. Even the rockiest cowboy dreads t h e stampede, and well he may, for a false step of his horse may hurl h i m under a thousand hoofs where a horrible death is a certainty. Speaking of cowboys, those venturesome devil-may-care follows who m a k e life a burden to ilio tenderfoot, are a much abused a c t The tough ones have migrated and can be found among t h e Apaches, but those with whom I have associated were perhaps boisterous, and moderately addicted ti cards and whisky, but withal good-natured and g r e a t believers in fair play."—Chicago Sun.

A bill h a s been introduced into «bo Massachusetts legislature providing for the establishment of a hospital for inebriates in this stuto.

I^rrowc C R E M A T I N G A P R I N C E . T h e Burning- Up of a D e a d M e m o o - of t h e R o y a l H o u s e of S l a m . Tho cremation of the body of a Siameso Prince at B-mgkok is thus described by the Pall Mall Clazcttc: T h e king entered the phramanc about five o'clock amid much trumpeting and surrounded by a big retinue. He bowed to the dais and prayed, then ascended tho steps and entered the inelosnrc, and amid the loud chanting and tomtoming of the kowtowing priests lie fireu '.re pile beneath the urn and again praye.i. He descended and departed. Then the princes entered the inelosiuv and performed their obloquies, and then followed tlie native nobles, am on j,' whom we found ourselves. On the dais arourvl the urn was a. kind, of shelf, on which wore piled innumerable tapirs made of sandal- wood, rrankincens,* :ind wax. Kach person on entering lit a number of these and shoved (hem under the urn, which, by th:.> same token, wad' not much bigger Ihaa a decent-sized pot. How they ma lagod to stow the remains in it i d > not know. Tho abominable smell of frizzling human flesh that spluttered and spat in the pot, which the aromatic fumes of the sandal and frankincense failed to disguise, permeated the building mid drove us forth. Whoa the king had performed his obscquircs ho adjourned to a pavilion, where he held an audience. He seated himself on a kind of balcony, and several of his little children were brought to him. On another balcony on his right the numerous princes of royal blood seated themselves. The body of the pavilion was set apart for tho nobles, ministers,'1 and "distinguished foreigners,11 some of whom were ladies. When his majesty had sat for a time in silence he suddenly produced a ' l a r g e bag, full of green limes, each of which contained a small silver coin in its core. These he threw among the princes, nobles, and people to be scrambled for, but presented some by hand to the foreigners, especially to the foreign ladies Whan he had exhausted the contents of this bag he produced another containing nuts, which he treated similarly. Each nut contained a numbered ticket, with the name of the prize, as a kernel. The prizes were the personal effects of the deceased and were distributed in this way to be mementoes of him. Some of them were not bad, but many were naturally disributed ludicrously. One of my friends, a non-smoker, received an old and much-abused meerschaum pipe, another an old cigar-holder and a very common Chinese wood axe. A French lady of title received a man's shirt-front—a thing commonly called a "dickey;1' also an old pair of the dead m a n ' l o n g stockings and an old white waistcoat, all much tho worse for wear. I myself received a pretty little satinwood cabinet, and** was much Pleased. I heard that some of the prizes were costly articles of jowelry, but did not see any such.

Texas Siftings. ..t." ment must be based on sound medical and moral principles. The fact that dipsomania is a disease is already eonceded in the laws of the state which provide fw tho commitment of such persons VJ the insane asylums. But experience hits shown that, while the law is right in recognizing the disease, its disposition of tho victim is not fortunate or adequate. A large amount of testimony can easily bo gathered from superintendents of insane hospitals to show that such institutions ar3 not proper places for the commitment of dipsomaniacs or habitual drunkards. At the end of a few weeks, when tho paroxysm of inebriety has passed away, the patient is apparently well. He is at least no longer insane in any proper sense. It is not difficult to proeuro an early discharge; and the patient goes forth only to renew his debauch at the usual interval, and is perhaps recommitted to the asylum. What he really needs is to be treated, not for insanity, but for drunkenness. The methods of treatment are not identical. An habitual drunkard needs to be restrained long enough to establish the physiological changes necessary to a permanent euro. He needs also to be brought under the constant pressure cf moral influences which shall develop and strengthen the power of seL'-control. Nor is a prison any more than the insane asylum the proper place to commit habitual drunkards who are not crimlmrls. The drunkard who.commits a <erimo against society while under tho influence of liquor becomes amenable to the criminal law. .The drunk*, ard who has not in other respects a bad repute, but yields to the domination of this form of self-indulgence, belongs to a different class. In both cases the aim of society should b3 the same—the reformation of the victim. But tho proper classification may lead to a distinction between thorn. The time will come, we trust, when all prisons will be regarded as moral hospitals. But that time has not yet arrived. A prison is .still popularly regarded as a place for the inlliction of punishment. Incarceration carries with it the stigma of criminality. There ere those who feel that the drunkard or the opium eater, who is simply guilty of a sin against himself, should not be placed in prison with those who are guilty of sins against society. We do not think this reasoning should be pushed too fur. Wo believe that every man who yields to self-indulgence violates not merely his obligations to himself, but obligations to society and to posterity. And it may be shown that the drunkard who bequeaths the terrible consequences of his indulgence to his children has done vastly more harm by his life In the world than the man who st2als a few dollars from his neighbor and is branded as a thief. It is not necessary here, howevor, to press points of casuistry. We simply urge that this matter be approached in a practical way. It is a simple fact that a large percentage of inebriates may be cured if placed under proper conditions. Theso facts are amply supported by the testimony of medical men and of experienced temperance workers. It is further reinforced by tho statistics of the most successful private inebriate asylums. But such asylums are not available to many of the poor, nor can they command those conditions which may be provided by state institutions. The difficulty in private institutions is that tho patient wishes to decide for himself when his cure is completed. His judgment docs not agree with the judgment of his physician, but the latter has no power to restrain him. The bill before the Massachusetts legislature grants a power of restraint over the patient extending to two years. It provides for the commitment of' the inebriate under proper legal form and on sufficient medical evidence. It also protects the inmate against the possibility of unjust detention; and, should it become a law, as we trust it may, those inebriates who are now sent to insane asylums, and many that are sent to reformatories, would bo committed to its care. The bill has been carefully drawn by medical and legal experts, and Massachusetts now has an opportunity of t r y i n g - a n experiment which ought not to be longer delayed. Every step in the classification of disease and crim* is a step in advance. The now institution, if established according to depot and post-office; but ton to one you don't inquire if there a r e any borrowers in the neighborhood. Now, a chronic borrower is a deadly nuisance in a community. A woman who is always "just out1' of saleratus will stir up more trouble in a neighbor; hood than a mad dog, and a fl fifteen hens, and a rooster. She will run in on you at any an hours, and want to borrow just a I sugar, or spice, till she can send to tho grocer's. Sho really did not know she was anywhere near out, till she wont about her cooking, and then she found that she hadn't a dust of sugar in the house, and not a soul around anywhere t h a t sho could send out after any! And she will tell you t£at she does so hate to trouble you; for if there is anything on'earth that she dislik.ejs_to do, it is to borrow—and she neve it when she can help it; but no pie crust is all on the plates, was obliged to, because she cou' spare the time to run to t h e grocer's. And she will sit down in your kitchen, and stop half an hour, and talk about everybody iu town; and, meanwhile, she will take an account of evervihing her eyes fall on, and she will see behind your stove the cobwebs that you forgot to brush down this morning; and she will notice the old boots t h a t your husband left on the wood-box to dry, and sho will see that your lamp chimnies have not been washed, and that your dishes are in the sink, and that you had ham for breakfast, by' the spatter of greese on the stove; and when sho goes into some other neighbor's house, on a borrowing expedit i o n , she will give a report of what she saw in your kitchen, and swear the neighborhood over to eternal secrecy regarding it; and tho consequence will be that in a week i t . will be all over town that your folks Hvo on ham, and that you are the most untidy housekeeper on tho footstool. When the borrower returns what she borrows, it is always in a little smaller measure, if, indeed, she returns it at all. And you may congratulate yourself if you get half what belongs to you. A regular borrower will borrow everything, from a piece of salt fish for breakfast, down to your boy, if you have one. Tho book borrower is oven a greater nuisance than the woman who borrows household supplies. She never hesitates to ask for the choicest or costliest books in your house. And she seems to think that she confers a favor on you by so asking. And if you are fool enough to lend, the possibility is that you will have to go after the book in question, and will find on doing so, that she has lent them to some friend of hers, who wanted to road them; and she will tell you t h a t sho knew you would be willing—you are no good-natured. In the course of our life we have been asked to lend everything *in the book line that ever we owned, except our Bible, and somehow nobody has ever seemed to care about borrowing that; and hi nine times out of ten, when we have complied, our literature has come back to us in a shape that fitted it only for kindlings—if, indeed, we were lucky enough ever to set eyes on it. So wo say to all our friends, if it be possible to avoid it, never have a borrower for a neighbor.—Kate Thorne, iu Now York Weekly. »/ I A Dinner in Siam.

One of t h e worst accidents *hat has oc c u r r e i on t h e Grand, T r u n k railway for years took place a t seven o'clock on the morning of April 28 about three miles west of Hamilton, Ont. T h e engine of the St. Louis express, from Windsor to Suspension Bridge, Jumued the track a t Junction Cut and pitched into the water tank. T h e baggage car and smoker, immediately in the rear, telescoped and took tire before tbo passengers could be got out or any aubitstan ze rendered. The lire communicated to the four cars in t h e rear, and they were scon in Humes, but t h e passengers managed to get out of t h e latter curs und tried to save those jn tho others, but without sutco9ft. The tank was so badly wrecked that the supply of water was almost entirely cut off, und what water could b j got bad to be taken from t h e wrecked engine aud lroin other locomotive* in the vicinity. There were about thirty passengers in the smoking cur and as tar as known thirteen got out. Two were killed iuBtautly—one, Mr. L. F . Gurney, who wii3 on his way from Chicago to New York, the ottrfr »n Italian, name unknown. Fifteen bodtea were taken out uf the wreck, which, with the two killed and thirteen rescued, all move or less wounded, mattes up the thirty who are Bupposed to have been in t i e smoker. None of tho train men wo: e seriously injured. Edmund Chapman of Loudon, fireman, had his right arm burn'jd and suffered a scalp wound. None of the fifteen bodies taken out after t h e lire have been identified, and it is doubtful if any will be for some days, as they were all badly charred and unrecognizable. Many were mangled badly before the car took flro, a n d some were taken out all in pieces. Tho tif teen killed were all huddled together in the forward end of the smoker. The baggage car jumped over the top of the engine and was curried down on t h e track about 100 yards «head of it. T h e railway company and t i c city officials did all in their power to help the wounded, twelve of whom were taken to the city hospit-.il. The others had their wounds dressed a t t h e scene of the accident and went on their wny oa a spe.'i <1 train. I t is not likely that any oi t h e wounded will die of their injuries, as noue are of a serious character. Among the wounded in tho hospital a r e the following: James A. Palmer, Ilion, N.

From 11 profusely illustrated series of Articles on tho l e n t e u n a l of inauguration in the April Century we quote tho following: "Washington was dressed in a full suit of dark.brown cloth, manufactured m Hartford, with metal buttons with an earle on them, and with a steel-hilted dress sword, wuite silk stockings, and plain silver shoe-buckles. His hair was dressed and powdered in the fashidu of tho day, und worn in a ba<,' and solitaire. Chuiicelior Hobert li.

Just before tho outli was to bo..«thintnsiercd it was dircoverod thai -no'biblo was in Federal Hall. Luckily Livingston, a Grand Master of Free Masons, knew that there was one at St. John's lodge, in the ei y assembly rooms near by, and a messenger was dispatched to borrow tho bible, which is to-day the property of St. John s lodge No. 1. the third olaest Masonic lodge iu the Uuited States. "Secretary Otis of the senate h(\d before him a red velvet cushion, upon which rested t h e open liible of St. John's Lodk.'e. 'You do solemnly swear,' said Liviugton, 'that you will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will, to the best of your ability, preserve, protect and defend the constitute n of the United States.' He then bowed his head and kissed the sacred book, and with the deepest feeling uttered t h e words- 'So help me God.' Tho Chancellor then proclaimed: 'Long live George Washington, President of the United States'.' The instant disehargoof thirteen canuon followed and with leud repeated shouts and huzzas tho people cried: 'God bless our Washington; long live our beloved President:' T h e President bowed to tho people, and the air again rang with acclamations. Washington, followed by the company at the balcony, now returned to the senute chamber, whero he took his seat, and the senators and representatives their seats. When Washington arose to speak all stood and listened 'with eager and marked Attention.' •'After delivering his address, t h e president, accompanied by tho \ ice president, the speaker, t h e two housos of congress, and all who attended the inauguration cere mony, proceeded on foot to St. Paul s church. The same order was preserved as in t h e procession from t h e President"s bouse to Federal hall. Tho military 'made a«good flsrure' us thoy linej the street near the church. T h e services iu the church were conducted by the chapUin of the senate, t h e Ht. Uev. Dr. Samuel Provoos*. bishop of t h e Episcopal church of Now York. "After prayers had been read and the Te Deum sung, Washington entered the stato coach and was escorted Home." of N E B R A S K A . K A X R A S , ( O L O K A W O and W Y O M I N G .

WASHINGTON, APRIL 29. 1889. Despite the vast amount of fun the # newspapers are having over the squabble of McAllister's four bund red and 'the New York aldermen over the question of precedence at the Centennial celebration of Washington's inauguration, the interest is deep and wide spread and the observance 'of the day will not be restricted to the crowds in New York. Ttifcday will-be observed here not only as a public holiday, bat as the anniversary of a supreme event in American history. It may be the agitation over the celebration that has so largely increased the number of'visitors to Washington's old home, Mount Vernon on the Potomac. I was surprised on a casual visit last week when I counted seventy- five people in the party and the guide told me that the number, in any sort of weather, during the past winter, so long as the boat had been able 'to rua, had not fallen below fifty. Think of the pilgrims to this tomb in a year; not uninterested visitors, not tourists who merely drop in to see such places in traveling, but people who came hundreds and ottimes thousands of miles to see this spot. I was struck by the eager interest taken in every feature by an English advocate in the party. On the boat g^ing back he said that more than anything else he had looked forward in visiting America to seing Mount Vernon. He had his pockets stuffed full of photographs by Mr. Diliion and bulbs purchased from the estate's conservatory, and looked supremely happy. To tell the truth the foreign visitors are far more enthusiastic admirers of Washington than are Americans. While a great number of our scholars have been keeping up -a post-mortem hunt tor his faults, the students of other countries have regarded him only as the grandest historical figure in the annals of modern struggles for liberty. The old place at Mount Yernon h, however, eloquent eyidenee of the esteem in which the father of his country is held by his people. Every year sees improvements made on the estate. The mansion stands at a considerable elevation above the river, but the descent is in no place very precipitous. within the last two years, a pr.vate donation has entirely restored the old deer park of Washington's day on this old river front A great stone wall and a fine iron fence, with a particularly imposing gate, now incloses the dark, and a score of deer may he seen. So in the mansion, the donations are continually coming in, and the pieces of old furniture and brie-a-braek are so numerous.as to unduly crowd some of the rooms. If generous souls would now buy back the library, which was sold sometime in the thirties to the Boston library, the furnishings would appear as complete as possible. The eld tomb where the remains of George and Martha Washington reposed prior to their removal to the present tomb, has been fully restored within the past two years. In fact the thought and zeal exhibited by the ladies of the Mount Vernon Association are a monument to American woman hood. The old church at Alexandria, from which just a hundred years ago last month', George Washington issued and rode away to be inaugurated at New York, is as carefully preserved. I was seated just back of the old Washington pew last Sunday, and I tried to imagine how George must have longed to be out of that pew on such Sundays, when the spiritual food offered by the pastor was particularly stale, and when he had but to look out of the window to see the budding leaves of the trees beckoning him away, and but to listen to hear the birds calling each cthsr among the headstones in the churchvard outside. If George had not been busy living out an historical existance, I believe he would have induced himself to cut the long service and go away for a walk. I CHELSEA, MICHIGAN.

The Management of the Pontiac AsylQtu Praised—Attendants Blamed. The report of the special committee on investigation of the Eastern Michigan asylam for the insane has been presented in tbe house and accepted without d scussiou. It Is signed by Representative* W. W. Williams, K. R. Pealer and J a m e s A. Randall. *the committee on t h e part of t h e house, a n i by Hal C. Wyman, M. D., appointed by the Governor. The following shows the conclusion reached by t h e committee on the Bateson case: The testimony of Allen as to what took place after B a t e : on was received at the asylum, goes far to confirm u s in our belief that the fatal injury occurred there. From the testimony takeu, no one of the cotnini,- tee entertains the opinion that Bateson was seriously injured between Bay City and Owos.o. I t is possible b u t not probable t h a t he w a i injure J a t Owosso Junction by his attendants, when they threw him ou the bed and handcuffed him. Yet the committee ail agree in the belief and concur in the opinion that Batescn's injuries were received a t t h e asylum at t h e hands of the attendant and watchman in their efforts to subdue and quiet him, but that it was an accident resulting from t h e struggle or fall. The post-mortem examination showed that he had sustained a fracture of two ribs and the separation of the curtilage of five others, us well as a puncture of t h e left lung, and that his death resulted from this cuu.-e Testiinony qt medical experts, b^th oral and published, w a s adduced snowiug that the nones in such cases us that of Bateson bee,me veiy brittle, and t h a t a light b.ow or pressure will often break iheai. Making all due allowance for the attendants ;;nd *ho circumstances as they appeared to them, we cannot find that their treatment on that occasion w a s prudent, and therefore* cannot exonerate them from all blume. The committee says,re3pectlng the Davis caro, that after hearing the testimony it was forced to a different conclusion from the coroner's jury which exonerated Attendant Taylor from all blame. The report says that Taylor's handling of Davis was unnecessarily severe, although with no intention of doing him serious injury. Relative to the walk which Davis was required to take after he was in.ured, the committee says: j.hat Taylor should have required Davis, to take such'a walk, uuder all the circumstances, without inquiring or investigating as to whether lie was injured or not, shows a lack of feeling or judgment; if there was no clement of c u e l t y , there was at least gross stupidity. One rule which is especially enjoined on all attendants requires them to control their temper in handling patients. TaL\lor admits that he violated tills rule. It may bo questioned how far Taylor is morally censurable, as all men can not af, sill times be expected to rein J in cool under great provocation; but we think there can be no question now as to the unfitness of both Allen and Taylor for the responsible and delicate duties of the positions which they held, whatever their previous lvcord may have been A careful examination by your committees of the cause of doa hs occurring at the asylum for the past year, showed that four persons died from injuries to the ribs and breast bone, viz: William Hadder, John Flanuery, George Bateson and VVm. Davis; and the injuries of two or more of them v/ere received on chairs or settees. No one attendant had charge of any two of these cases. Ti.e committee speaks oi the rules adopted by the institution, and says in conclusion : The executive management of the institution is, in the opinion of your committee, in charge of men fitted tor the work by professional traiuiug and practic.il experience, and is all that could bo desired and hoped for. Great care is taken to seeure proper and efficient attendants, but with these attendants hired at low wages, and much of the time of necessity having sole charge of the patients, the desired results cannot be obtained, despite tho most vigilant supervision. We found nothing which should impair public confidence in the medical staff; ou the contrary, we be,ieve it is conceded by those best informed that the medical superintendent of the eastern Michigan asylum for the insane stands at the head of his profession; that he is a loader in all the advanced ideas i : :.1^ treatment of the insane, and that no one person has done more than he to place the Michigan asylum at the head of such institions in this country. T H R E E LIVES LOST. Another Man May Die.—Death Caused hy Suffocation. Fire broke out in a saloon and lodging house on Cadillac Square, Detroit, Easter Sunday. As soon as the ilames were sufficiently under control to warrant an entrance into the building the firemen forced their way in, and in a moment or two emerged carrying the frightfully burned body of Malachi Powell, a man of all work about the place. Powell was burned principally nbout the head, face, arms and hands, his hair being s.nyed oif in several places, while the skin on his forehead had peeled off and hung down over his eyes. Ho was conscious and suffering terrible agony, throwing his head from side to aide, groaning pitibly, while his body was contorted by the unbearable pain that racked his eutire being. He was laid on the sidewalk, and cared for by Dr. J. J, Mulheron until the arrival of ihe Emergency hospital ambulanea, which conveyed him to that institution. A short t.nie alter Powell w> s brought out the firemen returned to the street bearing the body of Wm. Whitaker, a colored porter, who was found under a bed in a room on the fourth lloor with his coat sleeve tucked into his moutn. A moment aftor being laid on the sidewalk Whittaker expired. Returning to tho building the tireuien found the dead bodies of Kmersou .1. Gibson and Franklin T. Bolio on the fioor in a locked room in the third story. These bodies wfero also carried down stairs, out into the street and ptuced on the sidewalk beside those of Whittaker and Powell. The bodies of tho dead men were t iken tfl an undertaking establishment. Neither of tho throe were badly burned, death in each case being caused by suffocation.

T h e n with a swift g l a n c e into the lovely distressed face w h i c h w a s half turned aside, he added w i t h a sudden t o n e in the low d e e p voice which set all the girl's pulses beating: ' • l a m grateful beyond measure for all your kindness, it is only what I should have e x p e c t e d from you, but still " He paused .abruptly, and D o r o t h y leaned forward, t r y i n g to g a z e into tho face she could not.see, y i e l d i n g to the absorbing interest she could not account for. " W h y should y o u h a v e e x p e c t e d a n y t h i n g from m e ? " For answi&r he only saluted, and turning a w a y recommenced h i s beat. Slowly Dorothy returned to her cousin's bungalow, and found Sir Peter and Lady Ruskin at h i g h words. Elvira was t h r o w i n g >off the burden of her undisciplined .temper upon her husband, who> was no m e a n h a n d at retaliation. It made Dorothy sidk to h e a r the cutting bitter things tk'-jy said to each other, and so she turned from t h e m , this ill-matched loveless c o u p l e and went to h e r room. But D o r o t h y was curiously h a u n t e d by the m e m o r y of that sentry. W h a t was the powerful s t r a n g e interest that this private soldier had inspired in her? She could not tell; but the more she proudly fought a g a i n s t it the stronger it grew, and w h e n the cool of the e v e n i n g came she p e r s u a d e d one of he:- jfficer friends to take her round the barracks. T h e m e n w e r e all sitting l o u n g i n g about in the yard and veranda, and Dorothy scanned each bronze:1 face with e a g e r quick glance; but tho man she spught w a s not visible, and in disappointment was turrting to de'part, when she e s p i e d one solitary form sitting in a distant corner, and s o m e t h i n g in the h i g h t and grace of t h e figure made h e r turn impetuously toward it. Her escort was just talking to a b r o t h - er officer. Dorothy crossed the veranda w i t h h e r easy quick step, a tail w h i t e figuro in her w h i t e embroidered robe, w i t h her dark soft hair and wonderful e y e s , and stood before i h e soldier. He saluted, theii bent over his. w o r k again; he w a s c h a s i n g in silver, a n d a model, an e x q u i s i t e littlcjjfase, in native work, stood ©n tho b m c h b e s i d e him. * " W h a t a l o v e l y little thing!" D o r o - thy observed, t a k i n g it up. "Is it for sale?" She spoke more from e m b a r - rassment than a n y t h i n g else: but s h e was more embarrassed w h e n the s o l - dier said i m p u l s i v e l y : "Do y o u like it? T h e n would y o u do m e the honor of accepting it, m a d a m ? " His tone was courteous and g e n t l e - manly, but s o e x a c t l y that of a n e q u a l that sudden h a u t e u r came to D o r o t h y . In spite of her s w e e t n e s s s h e w a s proud, a l m o s t *w proud as Lady R u s - kin herself. "Of course I could not d r e a m " she began coldly, and a h a u g h t y little elerfttioo of. t h e head completod tho sentence. T h e soldier bowed a s proud a bow as D o r o t h y herself could h a v e g i v e n , a n d w e n t c a l m l y o n with his w o r k ; but t h e g i r l saw the deep dusky color rise in the b o w e d face, and suddenly rem e m b e r i n g the debt she o w e d to thlB man, s h e could not bear t o hurt his feelings. "I m e a n that y o u have already today laid m e under sufficient o b l i g a - t i o n , " s h e said softly. "I c o u l d not d r e a m of increasing it." T h e well-cut lips \curved w i t h a bitter smile. T h e man merely bowed a g a i n for reply. Dorothy lingered, feeling for, perh a p s t h e first time in her life awkward and shy. 4'I h a v e brought y o u a little bottle of this lotion," s h e said, d r a w i n g it from h e r pocket. "If I were you I should bathe your hand frequently with i t — w i l l y o u ? " T h e n she just touched the marked hand with h e r own soft little white fingers. "Oh, I a m sorry about t h i s . " " Y o u are certainly not responsible for it," he said; and for one brief instant h e lifted smile and g l a n c e to Dorothy's face. " "For the rest I think I a m grateful for this m a r k . " H e spoke slowly and curiously, g a z i n g down on his hand the while. "It h a s t h o r o u g h l y t a u g h t me a lesson I was too slow to learn." 4 'What lesson?" Dorothy asked, her heart beating, her interest increasing. " T h e lesson of contentment with t h i n g s as they are. m a d a m e . " 4 'You are content to h a v e received this b l o w ? " "It is not the first I h a v e received, but I fancy it will be the last." Dorothy gazed at him with some t h o u g h t s of the effect India's sun h a s upon European brains at t i m e s ; the man w a s so odd, so strange, so i n e x - plicable, and yet there was no trace of any brain affection in his quiet collected m a n n e r and s p e e c h ; there had certainly been no trace of it in the morning's encounter. "I shall n e v e r forget w h a t y o u did for me this m o r n i n g , " she said w a r m - ly ere she turned to depart. H e r friend was coming towards her; s h e must go, she knew. 4 , Don1 t you think you over-rate your memory a little?" was the chilly unexpected response, and once again Dorothy almost took offense. She turned toward her friend as ho came up, and when he said, "Are y o u ready to come back, Miss Beauc h a m p ? " she g a v e just a little nod and "(Joodbye" to the soldier. ,He stood up, bowed low with an ease, a courtly finis hed grace which proclaimed him a gentleman, and said in hi-s low refined voice: "Good-bye, Miss B e a u c h a m p . " "Do you know anything of that man?" Dorothy aske.i her companion. "I am sure he is a g e n t l e m a n . " "I dare say; there are too m a n y in the ranks. It is an awful life for t h e m .

T h e m o s t economical way to milk h, cow, all t h i n g s considered, is to milk the t w o forj teats, l e a v i n g otf with a pretty full stream, and then milk the hind ones to a short stream, and, returning to the fore ones, milk them to t h e same condition, not t o u c h i n g the hind ones again. T h i s will leave the teats empty, and the bags too. It is a false notion that t u g g i n g away at the teats stimulates a cow to g i v e more milk, but on the contrary, e m p t y i n g tho b a g F.S soon as possible yields more; then the cow can h a v e the e x - tra time to eat, which is a better stimulus than either. A slow milker is never tolerated in the dairy districts, and a "stripper" is an injury anywhere. T h e sooner the cow is milked, and all the o r g a n s connected with feeding, digestion and secretion are left in their natural condition, the bettei* iiiri for the cow.

The thousands of men who are crowoed out. of the Uklanoma country are bound to obtain homes, t*nd a well organized movement hu» been aianed to ublum possession or tne Cherokee strip. The occupation 01 the Cherokee strip ban begun along ihe whole*line. A much murder nut to cracu than any of tne Oklahoma booms is now preaeuteu to tho government. Tne Cherokee strip which 1» now in process of being gobbled comprises neariy eight million acre;, being tnus four times a» large a* Oklahoma und it far tiancends U;e U u e r in beauty and fertility, i h e exeitement in Arkunsaa City over the prospective luil eeizure of the strip is intense. J. ne crowcU of fugitives from tue 1 amine, thirst, frost and heat of Guthrie are swelling as each train on the au but paralyzed railroad comes m. The fiercest resentment is breathed against the government lor the outrageously unfair manner in which the country was lurown open. The whole federal machiu ery lrom the Pretudent down to deputy is passionately denounced. The CL6.oK.ees are aroused to the situation. Patten, tne chairman of their land commission, passed through Arkansas City on his way to Washington to urgently protest against the invasion that be regarded as iueviuble. Fatten said that the Chetokee nation was unconditionally opposed to parting witn the binp. The present proposition of *1.2o an acre was no inducement. Koomers retreat north by wagon from Oklahoma, it may he believed that hundreds ox the returning pilgrims are bearing northward with piuns iaid lor location on the strip and that many are camping this side of Salt Por* upon what tLey will claim lor their homes. The soldiery assigned to patrol the Cherokee outlet under Capt. Jack Hayes have not yet returned from the south border, where they accompanied the main body of boomers bound for Oklahoma.' Hayes' command, however, is expected in Camp Price, near Arkansas City, at any hour. It will be the duty of the soldiers to clear the strip <.nd turmoil is bound to ensue. The people, except for their present excitement, seem disposed to be law-abiding. A conservative opinion is that while they will claim the land in the strip LS redress for wrongs suffered in Oklahoma they will not offer organized armed resistance. There is no doubt that a secret organizat. on is in existence, which numbers in its membership many prominent and influential men, which is heartily in favor of colonizing in the strip with a view to hastening the opening of the Cherokee lands to settlement. The members say that if people were allowed to live in Oklahoma until the President s proclamation was issued they have the right to do the same thing in the strip and they propose to do so. As illustrating the ingratitude of a republic it may be mentioned that contests are already hied against the claim of Capt. Couch, the old boomer leader, on the curious ground that he disqualibed himself from making an entry by entering the ter riiory years ago on boomer expeditions. Gen. James B. Weaver of Iowa, one of the most persistent of the openingof Oklahoma in congress, has ulso had his cliiim contested and has .been accused of attempting to take the people by the throat. TLi9 oldtime boomer leaders have not fared well. Any number of Payne s men can be found now lying around Purcell who have been outridden and out run by men who have taken the fruit of their years of sacrifice. Newspaper Criiktan. It is a privilege every ne serve* to itself tocrieise,adversely u bet, for the public's benefit, aaytitUg la which the public is deeply interested. It is the custom of Jl. H. Warner & Co., Proprietors of the renowned Kidney and aver Cure, better known as "Warner's Safe Cure," to flood the country, and especially the postrofflces, with medical pamphlets. The writer has taken the liberty to examine one of these marvellous little books and finds food for cr iticism, but before indulging in it, will give our readers some quotations' therefrom, from the highest medical authorities, which we believe worthy of. consideration. Under the head of "No Distinctive Symptoms Apparent," we find: First—More adults are carried off in this country by chronic kidney disease than by any other one malady except consumption. —Thompson. Second—Deaths from such diseases are increasing at the rate of :250 per cent a decade.—Edwards. Third.—Bright's disease has no symptom's of its own, and may long exist without the knowledge of the patient or practitioner, as no pain will be felt in the kidneys otr their vicinity.— Koberta. the last / T ourth.— In the fatal cases—and most fl cases have hitherto been fatal—tbe symptoms of diseased kidneys will first appear in extremely different organs of the body as stated above.—Thompson. Fifth—Only when the disease has reached its final and fatal stages may the usual symptoms of albumen and tube casts appear in the water, and will great pain rack the diseased organs.—Thompson. Sixth -Bright s Disease, which usually has three stages of developement, is a universal disease in England and America. —Koberts and Edwards. Thompson is authority for saying that more adults are carried off in this country by kidney disease than any other malady except consumption. Under Warner's "Safe Cure" article on Consumption, we find a paragraph claming to be a quotation from a publication issued by Brompton Hospital for Consumptives, London. England, which states that 52 per cent of the patients of that institution have unsuspected kidney disorder. Dr. Herman Brehmer, an eminent German authority, also says that Consumption is always due to deficient nutrition of the lungs, because of bad blood. Medical science can no longer dispute the fact that the kidneys are t i e principal blood purifying organs of the human system, and if they are dise sed and thus fail to expel the uric acid poison or the waste matter of the blood, as the blood passes through these two great organs, the 'kSafe Cure'' claim is correct, and the reasoning of its proprietor holds good. There is no doubt but that iu too many instances the medical fraternity doctor for symptoms, instead of str.king at the root of the disease, and that under this form of treatment m; ny patients die. We cannot, however, see the necessity of continually flooding the country with these advertising medical boolts, when their story once well told is enough for the time being. People as a rule, now a-days, go to their newspaper for information, and we believe RUCJ truths as We have instanced could, be proclaimed therein more advantageously to the public and much more benencialiy to the proprietors.

If she gets on to a ferryboat people look as if they expected a species of Perseus of some kind to pass' the boat. kShe lias got, tired of this and of the miniature white hor.se that the Byoadway dude wears on Jiis wateh-chain and Haunts insolently in her face as she enters a car. She has a new scheme—a counter-irritant. It's a white horse breastpin made of celluloid, which she Wears conspicuously at her throat. Instead of staring at her anil the road alternately,' people give her undivided attention for a minute, and when they discover the joke they smile and pass on, glad for a chance to attend to their own business. —New York Teier/mm. M u n c h a u s e n Outdone. Experiments here, says a Newport, (Ky.) dispatch to the New York Sun, have resulted in an extraordinary discovery, if the statements-made by those interested are correct. The discovery is that aluminum, which now eost3 $20,000 a ton and is produced only in France, can be obtaiueil anywhere by a most simple process and at less than one-hundredth part of the present expense. Tite importance <;f ihis discovery can be judged when it is recollected" that aluminum is the most generally diffused metal on earth, and has all the beauty of silver, besides being nontarnishing, non-corrosive, more lasting than .silver, wit!; only one-fourth its weight. In addition alniniuuitW-alloyed one-tenth of one per eent. with iron or steel increases the lue.nou'eneous and tensile siivng!!) of tin* metal nearly halt', while t»,r eleeiro-platinu' purposes aluminum is'supcrior to either gold or silver. '['lie experiments he-ran in an attempt to extract, aluminum chemically from common eiay and cryolite. This was aeeoinplis'ied in a novel manner, and the operators oblaiued thereby metallic niiiiainum, eieauieaily pure. Their me! hod was based upon ihe theory of substitution aad smelling- the oris in a water-jaeheo'd steel furnace, a crucible bcia-• u-eh1 .-> to resist the strong iiuoride liu\e>. • When the mass was ouile Ibjiiid it w a s c o n v e y e d i a t o a c o u \ e r ! e r or covered s i a - ! > o l holdim about lour the aluminum a syphori tap. hundred pounds.^ and extracted t herefrom !>; The slag was relumed to tin' furnace, serving the purpose of a lluxwilh more ore. This direct, coniinuoi.s process obviated thc> in s-aly of the ii.sua" costly iufermediary elements am made the aluminum about a.s cheap as copper. The Hoop-Snnke. Jamf": N. Lawrence, an old resident of this p!a(•('. says a (.ami! ervi 11 e (111.) letter to the Si. Louis (r!ol>c,-I)< htacr<U< says that people who say there are no such things as hoop-snakes don't know are taikit about. Mr. t n r n h n g en- In the forest of Esiorel a man and woman were at work recently and not far off a babe—an infant 6 months old '• —was lying in its cradle, which had j been moved to the front of their cottage in order that the little cherub might inhale the fresh air under the watchful gaze of its fond parents. Suddenly a noise was heard and an enormous eagle, swooping down from the cerulean sky, seized the babe with beak and claws and began to soar once more toward the sun, when the distracted father, rushing madly, into his hut, took up a gun. Without a moment's hesitation the man pointed Ids weapon at the cruel bird and fired. The eagle dropped earthward as dead as a door nail and its slayer now achieved another feat Which would have won him any amount of applauso at Lord's. He held out his hands and caught the child as it fell, the little one escaping without so much as a scratch and returning from its journey into mid-air as "bright as a button.1' So Tell of immortal renown hasa rival. The only drawback is that a skeptic has hinted that if it wen; carefully examined the majestic bird might, prove after all to be only a caaard.--iJ ari« Lctter4o London 'tvlvyropk.

Mr. Cordley was a son of James and Ann Cordley, and'was born June 9, 1839, at the old homestead wbere he lived and died. August 29, 1861,. he was married to Miss Esther Hicks, who survives him. One son and two daughters were born to the deceased and wife—Bert C, Hattie (wife of Herman H. Swarthout,) and Bessie Cordley, all of whom are living, h e was a loving husband and father and none knew him but to honor and respect him. His majiy friends will join with the DISPATCH in extending sympathy to the bereaved family and relatiyes. The funeral services will be held at the residence to-day (Thursday) at one p. m. and the remains will be laid to rest in the Hamburg cemetery, threo miles, east of this place. Rev. O. B. Thurston will officiate. HE 18 FOUND GUILTY I "We find R. Irving Latimer guilty* *.o f Murder In the Firtst JJegreo,'' was tho verdict rendered by th+* jury last Monday in the famoua L&tiwttr trial at Jackson. We clip tbe foliowing from the Detroit Tribune of Mar 6th. Mrs. Mary Latimer of Jackson was discovered late on th« morning of Friday, Jan. 25, lying dead upon the floor of her bedroom. Two bullet wounds in Mrs, Latimer's head gave unmistakable evidence that she had been murdered. The body wasoovered with blood, as was also the bed, floor and window sill. The first shot had evidently been fired while Mrs. Latimer was asleep, the second while she was crawling to the window to call for help. The crime has never been paralleled in brutality in this state except by the crouch murders. Suspicion at once rested upon R^ Irving Latimer, the murdered woman's son, who went to Detroit the evening previous. On returning to Jackson young. Latimer was arrested charged with tho murder. His coolness was phenomenal. Details of the murder did not interest him at all. He swore he remained in Detroit all night. Later he was identified by trainmen, who testified that he left Detroit for Jackscn, the evening before. the murder, and returned, to Detroit in the earlv morning after it. A Detroit hotel clerk saw him leave the hotel in the evening partly disguised, and a chambermaid said he did not occupy his bed, although Latimer asserted that he did. Latimer utterly failed to account for the time he alleged he spent in Detroit. As far as time was concerned Latimer had ample apportunity to commit the crime and return to Detroit. By leaving Detroit at 10:15 Thursday night he would reach Jackson at 1:15 a. m., and haye two hours in Jackson, returning on the 5;15 tra;n. When Latimer was arrested not only were blood spots found on bis clothing, but the lining of bis shoes wai discolored by a dark red fluid which was pronounced blood. Latimer's father died on Oct. 21, 1887, under suspicious circumstances. Latimer was Lenatited by his death. Latimer's interest in his mother's death is plain, as she was possessed of considerable property, which be would inherit. Latin\er was much i# need of money, and was already heavily in, debt to his mother. A note made by Latimer to his mother for §4500 was found among hor effects, overdue, and with interest unpaid. Latimer was arraigned Feb. 6, but orTtnotion of his attorneys the case was put over Until the April term of court. Latimer's coolness, and indifference during all this timj has been a matter of unceasing comment. He has never, as far as known, expressed regret at his mother's horrible murder, or doubt of his own ultimate acquittal. He at all times appears smiling and happy, and is in ?plend'd physical condition. The case was unexpectedly called in the cireait court on Monday, April 15, and the time until the afternoon of Tuesday, April 23, was spent in securing' a competent jury. The case was ended last night after a hotly contested trial of 18 days in a verdict of guilty. Sen-' tence has been detered by the Judge until Saturday next. • m The following are the names of pupils belonging to the Intermediate Department who were not absent during the month of school closing May 3.

SYNOPSIS OF DEPEW'S MASTERLY ORATION. TJM Daeoratloas Surpass Anytttnc TLJVt 8e«n In New York. The centennial celebration in N e w York in oofu.aeinoration 0 f the inauguration of the first president of the United States ea ty be said to have commenced on the niurning of April 39, with the arrival of President Hurrison from Washington on bcbedule time. On April &>, 17S», (Jen. Washington arrived in New York, after a journey of six days fron*. Washington. President Harrison, so great is the contrast in means of transportation wrought by a century, arrived at 7 :i» a. m , having covered the same distance surrounded by the ease and comfort and elepmce of a palace car, within six hours. Thol.no of march followed as nearly as possible the historic route taken by Gen. Washington K)J years ago. The parade and procession was the most imposing scene ever witnessed in New York. Nearly SO.COi) men were in line. The fifth divisi. n, -called the depiirtment of agriculture, was striking tnd picturesque. This was the granger division. There were numerous floats representing farmers 100 years ago an** to-day. Men in old-time costumes, carried scythes and sickles, boys were going to mill With bags of grain, and groups of farmers had old fashioned wooden mould-board plows, cradles, flails, etc. New York was literally clothed in flays and bunting, and on all sides were evidences of a lavish expenditure of money in decorations. Of the buildings below the city hull the most noticeable were those immediately opposite the Equitable building, the Drexel-Morgan building. tJie custom house, the various exchanges and the sub-treasury building. The ei£ut aaassive columns in front cf the latter building were entwined with flags, and from each column a United States shield was displayed. The stand on which the exercises took, place was tastefully decorated. The decorations on Trinity church were mainly about the entrances, and consisted of ?. simple but beautiful draping of large flag.*. From a window in the steeple protruded a pole on which was sus^-ende! a large flag. The decorations on tnc city halt were cf a most artistic nature. A huge rosette, having for a center the escutcheon of the United States, formed a top-piece. Each window in the front had a base consisting of a half rosette of flats and a coat of arms of some foreign country, and above thera floated small colonial flag3. In the spaces between the windows appeared the arms of the state?. The root was edged with crimped bunting. On the Broadway side of the building the windows were draped as in the front, at:d two i,i&uien-*e flags were spread to their fullest extent across the top. From every window (n the postofHtfO building floated a flag, aud buntin?' /.-1 Btreameis appeared in profusion. TlrtJ decorations on the Equitable buildup consisted simply of a large rosette plaj.:<i at the top of the building, and 13 streamUVJ about MO foot long, which were hung froai the rosette to the sides of the building and caught in a loop by ropes of red, white and blue. The corridor of tho building where *iie President made his entrance had no decorations, but the rooL:s of the lawyer1 club, where ho was tendered a luncheon, there waB a slight digression from the rul,-. Tho table was lighted by twelve electric lights and the center was covered with a mass of beautiful flowers. Up town the hotels and buildings were all in holiday attire. The arches placed at differenwpoinls along the line of the parade were four in number. First in point of beauty was the one situated at the junction of Broadway, Fifth avenue and Twentythird Slreet. It is 77 feet high *nd spans 100 feetof the roadway. Paintings of great men of the country were hung above the arches and on top. Above the keystone was a statue of Washington on horseback, flanked on either side by a large gilt eagle. Each turret had a spiro in each corner, eight spires in all, and eai h spire is 3» feet high. In the pitches of columns were placed statue of soldiers and ealors in the costume of 100 years ago. The arch at Fifth avenue tnd Twenty-sixth street had three spans and was 700 feet wide. It was the same hight as the other arch, and was decorated in somewhat the same manner. At Fifth avenue and Washington squares •was an arch made to represent stone, H2 feet high, and spanning 40 feet. Laurel wreaths, flowers and bunting formed the decoration. One of the roost elaborate pieces of street decorattng_in the city was the merchants' arch, near the foot of Wall street. The *rch)wos from the curbs and spanned the street, the center, representing the keystone, being 40 leet above the pavement, in / i t s rirapinjpsilk was as freely used as bunt- )JnjrTancLtne eagles, shields, portraits, flags and streamers nnd draperies of national colors were arranged in accordance with designs prep^sd by some of the most noted decorators xu tho world. At an early hour in the morning the various vessels that had been assigned to places in the grand naval parade began taking their positions and making preparations to receive the president. The fleet comprised floating craft of every fcnagin able description, the men-of-war, revenue boats, yachts, sailing vessels, ocean steamers being unexcelled in the brilliancy and extent of their decorations, and when all was ready the reception committee started to meet the presidential party at Elizabeth port The president and party embarked on board the Dispatch at Eluabethport, nnd the vessel, accompanied by the steamer Sirius carrying other guests and officials of the presidential party, and the Ernst us Wiman with members of the press, governors, commissioners of states, etc.. steamed through the Kill von Kill to the upper bay. As she passed Port Richmond, the tug Nina, which had returned to that point, fired a gun, which was repeated from the Chicago, as a signal for the fleet to henve anchors short and prepare to get under way. When the Dispatch was opposite the line of ihe tenth squadron of merchant marine lying off Staten Island Commodore Moran moved his flagship, J. A. Dutnont from her temporary station at the left of the line out in tho stream and accompanied the Dispatch as far as the right of line, where he took position. av the fame time he dipped bis colon and kls entire iqusdron did to* same, and blew steam whistles for half a minute As the nresident's boat turned north into the mala channel and reached the left of line of squadron 9, that squadron and squadron 4 on the east side went through the same ceremony, as did all the squadrons in tarn by pairs. There was no other blowing steam whistles until the Dispatch came abreast of the Chicago, when the whistles of the entire fleet were blown in unison for halt a minute. When the Dispatch ostne abreast of the rear of the yacht division, the revenue cutters nnd such of the yachts as carried guns began a saluto of 21 guns. Had as the President's ship passed, the officers and crew of each vessel paraded the deck and saluted by uncovering. When the Dispatch reached tho rear of the naval division the yards of all the vessels were manned, and each ship fired a salute of 2l guns. As the Dispatch passed each vessel the officers and crew uncovered, the marine guards and the sentries presented arms, and the bands played the national air. The triumphal passage sf the Dispatch between the parallel line of steamers occupied about an hour. At the last, a gun from the Chicago, the naval, the revecue, and tho yacht division* got under way and steamed up the bay and North river at a speed of six knots an hour, preserving the same formation and distance as when at anchor. The merchant marine, in two great divisions of five squadrons each, followed the Dispatch up the East river. The merchant marine column w a s eight miles long. After rounding the stake-boat themerchunt marine returned dowu the East river around the battery »md up the east side of the North river. They rounded the column of naval and revenue vessels which had meantime come to anchor below Fifty- first Btreet. Tho steam yachts having dispersed at a signal fjom the U. S. steamer Chicago before the naval and revenue vessels reached their anchorage, came down the ea*t side of the river past the vice admiral's flagship off Governor s island and dispersed. On the arrival of tho Dispatch in tho East river, off the foot of Wall street, a barge, manned by a crew of shipmasters from tho marine society of the port of N e w York, with Capt Ambrose IMIOW, president of that society, as coxswain, put out to meet her and row the President ashore. The crew of the barcre that rowed President Washington from Elizabethport to the foot of Wall street r e r e members of the same society. While the President was being taken from the Dispatch into the barge, the Erastus Wimain and the Sirius landed their passengers at the foot of Wall street Then came the Presidential barge, manned by a sturdy crew of grizzl.v-hairod men, many of whom had not Dulled an oar in years, but whose strong, etfcady stroke attested that the proficiency they had attained a generation ago had rot been lost by theintej vwing years of 4TeL>r;./!g on their oars." P'wv ltf, where the president landed, was one of most brilliaatly decorated spo s in thfe city. The loof was one fluttering maW of flags and streamers, and the interior, usually so somber, was brilliant with alt the colors of the rainbow. To the left of the pier was attached, the float at which the boat containing the presidential party emptied its distinguished passengers. The float was handsomely carpeted and tho stairs leading to the pier were covered with a canopy of bunting. Streamers were strung across the river from Wail street to Pine street. The president was received ns he stepped ashore by Gov. Hill, Mayor Grant, Hamilton Fish, president of the centennial committee, and Win. D. Hamilton, chairman of tho committee on states. After tho President and party had lunched and rested, a reception was given at the Lawyers' Club by the Committee on states, and in the evening the presidential party was given a dinner at the residence of SU'.yresant Fish. The oxercises of the day were fittingly closed with the inauguration ball which took place at the Metropolitan opera hous*e, at which the President and party were present. In the various churches throughout the city, pursuant with the President * proclamation, special services were held on tho morning of tho i!0th ut the same time that the worshippers at St. Paul's were e( m memorating the religious service which preceded Washington's inauguration, April 30, li8',i. At about eU'ht o'clock carriages, provided by the committee on states, drew up in front of the Fifth avenue hotel. A few minutes later, Chief Justice Fuller, tha members of the eab!n3t and the invited guests entered the carriages and were driven to No. Sfl Fifth avenue, the resi dence of Vice President Morton, whose guest the President is. Here the President and Vice President were escorted by the committee to their carriage, and then, preceded by a platoon of mounted police, the procession started for St. Paul's chapel. Before it reached the chapel the crowd had increased to such proportions that it was with great difficulty t h \ t the )>olice could keo.T> a way clear for the carriages. At a little before nine nearly every one who was fortunate enough to possess one of the precious lavender tickets necessary for admission had entered the historic old church, and was awaiting the President's arrival. St. Paul's clock had but just tolled the hour of nine when the presidential party made its appearance. The committee of the vestry of Trinity church met President Harrison and escorted him to the west porch of the chapel, where the rectory and full vestry of St. Paul's received him. The President was then escorted to the Washington pew on the north side of the chapel, which he and his cabinet occupied, the rest of the party boiog given seats near by. Fully 1,300 persons were present. Prof Leo Koher began the "processional "Old Hundred." The choir sang the grand old hymn as it has rarely been sang before. After the processional the Lord s prayer was repe.ited by the clergy and people, followed by the usual versicles. The special prayer of thanksgiving used at St. P a u l s and in all the Episcopal churches throughout the country, was then s ml. Two other special prayers were used, one asking a blessing upon President Harrison, and the other for the welfure of the country. After the prayers, the Rt. Rev. "Henry C. Potter of New York delivered his address. The Eervice concluded with the recev sional hymn. The presidential party was then escorted by the vestry to the west porch, where the President was received by the centennial literary committee. The party then proceeded to the sub treoaury building at the corner of VV**ll and Nassau streets, where the ol 1 federal buirim* stood in which Washington took the oath of oSce in 1789. Here the l.terary exercisej were held. In front of the platform of the sub-treasury building where the literary exercises j connected with the centennial celebration ' took place, a sea of heads greeted the eye, J and all about the spot, from Broadway to William street, eager thronging humanity I was pae'eea. It was next to impossible for i one to make his w.iy through the crowd that was struggling for places' uf vantage near the platform. Whllo the serricet in iJt Paul's were being held the Twenty-seoond regiment band, under the leadership of Patrick 8 . Gilmore, Kve a concert at the sub-treasury. The nd began the program at about 9 o'clock and continued until the literary exercises began. The President and hie party wore due at 10 o'clock, but it was a little later when they arrived. The literary committee escorted the President from St. Paul's down Broadway to Wall street to the sub-treasury. As the President's carriage passed along the crowded thoroughfare, the waiting multitude* on the sidewalks ohtm-ed again and again until his way aeemed to he a triumphal processiou greeted with one prolonged round of cheers. The President's reception at the sub treasury wui mo it enthusiastic. As soon us Gilmore caught sight of the Presidents carriage he lifted his baton and the full -2nd bund played "Hail to the Chief." During the playing of this the President, alighted and was escorted to his seat on the platform. The members of his cabinet grouped themselves about him, and the other invited guests were seated near. As boon as all wero arranged and quiet w a s gained, Elbridge T. Gerry, chairman of the committee on literary exerci.es, opened the proceedings. Rev. Dr. Storrs made tho prayer, und the poem of Johu Greenkaf Whittier followed. After the applause that greeted the reading of the poem had eeasec, the Hou. Chauucey M. Depew stepped forward to deliver the oration ho hud written for the occasion. Mr. Depew's appearance was the signal for a generous burst of applause, and it wus some minutes before be could begin. He spoke in a clear, loud voice, aud could be heard by a large port on of the audience. Mr. Depew s or.itiou was scholarly, elaborate and dignified. Ho opened with a statement of l^e situation 100 years ago, as follows: We celebrate to-day the centennary of our nationality. One hundred years ago the United States began their exisieo.ee. The powers of government were assumed by the people of the republic, and they become the sole source of authority, The Ktlemn ceremonial of the first inauguration, the reverent oath cf Washington, the acclaim of the multitude greeting their president, marked the moBt unique event of moiern times in the development of free institutions. The occusion was not an accident, but a result. It was the culmination of the working out by mighty forces through many centuries of the problem of self-government. It was not tho triumph of a system, the application of a theory, or the reduction to practice of the abstractions of philosophy. The lime, tho country, the he red it v und environment of the peoplo.the^ folly of its enemies, and the noble courage of ita friends, gave td*4iberty after ages of defeat, of trial, of experiment, of partial success and substantial gain?, this immortal vic'ory. Henceforth it had a refugj and recruiting station. The oppressed found free homes in this favoi'ed land, and invisible armies marched from it by mail and telegraph, by speech and song, by precept and exureiplo, to regenerate the world. Puritans in New England, Dutchmen in New York, Catholics in Maryland, Hugue uots in 5-outh Carolina had left the fire of persecution and wero wedded to religious liberty. They had beeu purified in tho furnace, and in high debate and on blood}' battle fields had learned to sacrifice all material interests and to peril their lives for human rights. The principle i of const it u tional government had been impressed vo ;;; them by hundreds of years of struggi'.\ iind for each principle they could point to tho (,'rave of an ancestor whose death attest J d the ferocity-of the flfrht and the value of the concessions wrung fre.m the arbitray power. They knew the limitations of authority, they could pledge their lives and fortunes to resist encroachments upon their rights, but it required the lesson of Indian massacres, the invasion of the armies of France and Ciitiada, the tyranny of the British crown, the seven years' war of the revolution, and the five years'of chaos of the confederation to evolve the idea, upon which rest the power and permuncy of the republic, that liberty and union are one and inseparable. Mr. Depew then related the genesis of the fathers of the revolution, sons of men who had sprung from every persecution in Europe; t o d how bravely they signed a document that was to be a death warrant or a diploma of immortality. The central idea of the declaration of independence was t i e sovereignty of the people. Thomas Jefferson most clearly grasped possibilities of the idea. He constructed his system on the equality of all men teforc the law. In his passionate love of liberty ho became intensely jealous of authority. He destroyed the substance of royal prerogative, but never emerged from its shadow. He would have the states as guardians of popular rights, and tho barriers against centralization, and ho saw in the growing power of the nation ever increasing en croachments upon the rights of the peopie. For the FUCCCSS of tho pure democracy which must precede pre-idents and cabinets and congresses, it was perhaps providential that its apostle never believed a great people could grant and still retain, could give and at will reclaim, could dele gate and yet firmly hold the authority which ultimately created the power of their republic and enlarged the scjpe of their own liberty. The union of the states was not a government but a ghost. I h e states elected dele gntei to congress without regard to population. All the states had un equal voice. It required but nine states to pass a measure and but live to block tho government. Congress had no powers of sovereignty. It might call on the states, but could not in force its demand". Each state levied dis criminating duties against the others, and might tax inter state commerce. Tho fathers of the republic saw those fatal weaknesses and finally achieved their most significant triumph, that which secured the assent of the states to the limitation of their boundaries, to the grant of the wilderness beyend them to the gener.d government and to the insertion in the ordinance erecting the Northwest territories of the immortal proviso prohibiting "slavery or involuntary servitude" wi&in all that broad domain. The states carved out of this splendid concession were not sovereignties which had successfully rebelled, but they were the children of the union, born of the covenant and thrilled with its life ond liberty. They became the bulwarks of nationality and the buttresses of freedom. Their preponder. ting strength first checked and then broke tne slove power, their fervid loyalty halted nnd held at bay the spirit of state rights and secession for generations; and when the cr'sis came it was with their overwhelming assistance that the nation killed nnd buried its enemy. The corner stone of the edifice wh ise centenary wo are celebrating was the ordinance of ITH'X It was constructed by the feeblest of congresses, but few enactments in ancient or modern time.-* had more farreaching and beneficent influence. It is one of the sublimest paradoxes of history, that this weak con fed ration of state *shou id have welded the chain, against which, after ^4 years of fretful efforts f >r release, its own spirit frantically dashed nnd died. Thence Mr. Depew sketched the extension of federal power s the building of the constitaUom b y Washington, Franklin, Elsworth. Gouvermeur and Robert Morris, the Pinckneys, Hamilton nnd Madison, with no precedent to guide them, nnd experiences wblch lead some to lead to absolute oantralUation as the only refuge from anarchy, and others to cling to the sovereignty of the states as a remedy against despotism, they erected their govecatnent on the eternal foundations of the power of the people. Jefferson w a s the Inspiration of independence, Hamilton was tUe incarnation of the constitution. Washington became president He alone could be trusted with so much power. The inauguration was the greatest triumph ruler had ever received. The memories and forebodings awakened in him were thrilling and fearful alike, but the government w a s begun in dear earnest, he selected the best ud vise i s obtainable, the central federation was established, parties crystalized and passions subsided. But with tho first attempt to exercise national power began the duel to the death between si ate sovereignty claiming the right to nullify federal laws or secede from the union, and tho power of the republic to command the resources of the couutry, to enforce its authority aud protect its life. It was the beginning of the 00- years war for the constitution and the nation. It seared consciences, degraded politics, destroyed parties, ruined statesmen, and retarded tho advance und development of the country; it sacrificed hundreds of thousands of precious lives, and squandered thousands of millions of money; it desolated the fairest portion of the land und carried mourning into every home north aud south; but it ended at Appomattox in the absolute triumph of the republic. Mr. Depew then sketched the national growth of the governroovt, tho effects of war and the present status of tho nation, concluding us follows: Tho spirit of Washington fills the executive office. Presidents may not rise to the full measure of his greatness, but they must not fall below his standard of public duty and obligation. His life and character conscientiously studied and thoroughly understood by coming generations, will be for them a liberal education for private life and public station, for citizenship and patriotism —for love and devotion to union and liberty. With their inspiring past and splendid present, the people of these United States, heirs of a hundred years, marvelously rich in all which adds to the glory and greatness of a nation, with an abiding trust in the stability nnd elasticity iu tbeir constitution, and an abounding faith in themselves, hall the coming century with hope and joy. Then came President Harrison's address, ^amidst wild cheering. He Raid it was imposRibio to make an address on this occassior., as Depew's oration made further sp-2Qf'h superfluous und difficult. As to Washington, the President said, "He was the incarnation of duty." Calls^er Vice President Morton brought only his bowB. Archbishop Corrigan pronounced the benediction. I h e military parade which followed the literary exercises waa unparalleled in splendor, fully 52,000 soldiers marching in the ranks. The hea4 ot the line began to move about ono o clock and the rear of the column did not reach its destination and disband until seven o'clock. The buuquet iu tho evening was the crowning glory ot the day. Addresses wero mado by Ex-President Cleveland, Chief Justice Fuller, Gov. Lee of Virginia, GfV. Hill of N o v York, Gen. Sheridan, Ex-President Hayes, and other distinguished gentlemen. Tha last event iu the series ct centennial ccle'uiations to commemorate the inauguration of Washington was the civic parade on May 1st, designed to illustrate the industrial progress of the country during its century of uational life. The splendid naval and military demonstration of the past two days, surpassing anything of the kind ever witnessed in the new world, seemed not to have s:itinted the appetite of the people for sight seeing. From an eavly hour in the morning crowds began to gamier at all the places along tho line of mn'vh from which a view of the parade could be had, and by eight o'clock the sidewalks all a'ong the route wero well friuged with the walking throng. The stands soon beeun to fill 'up with ticket* holders,-and the open spaces in tho vicinity of the President's reviewing stand at Madison square were especially crowded. Be-, fore tho hour arrived for the parade to move, every available site had been preempted all along the line of march, and the windows nnd doors, as well ns the sidewalks, wero well filled with spectators. The parade was under tho management of Gen. Daniel Butterfield as chief marshal, und the smoothness with which the program was carried out showed the excellent result of his careful attention to details during the elaborate preparations which he has been making for weeks. The president was escorted from the residence of Vice-President Morton to the reviewing stand at Madison square, which he reached a few mini.tes after 9 o'clock. The parade started i.t 8 ;•.'() a. m. from Fifth avenue and Fifty seventh street, tho column pf?r,sing down tho avenue. As its head reached Twenty seventh street. Mayor Grant, with the representative delegates from the civil, industrial and commercial societies und organizations of N e w York who had been stationed in that vicinity awaiting its approach, moved and took the lead until the president's reviewing stand Was reached. The mayor bore an address, which, on reaching the stand, he formally presented to the president, amid great applause from the multitude and the booming of a hundred guns salute from the naval vessels anchored in the North river, below Fifty ninth street. The president gracefully signified his acknowledgment of the a Idress, and extended formal greeting to the city representative « who then took the places reserved for them >nthc grand stjnd around the president. The column then proceodiil down the avenue past the great stand, with bands playing and flagB waving in hcoor of the Prosident, who courteously responded to the salutes of the various organizaiions. A continuous cheer from tho ranks, *ith as constant response from the adn#'ring thrones, added excitement to t h e s c e u s a s the procession swept past. First came a detail of mounted police, which swept the street from curb to curb of all stragglers. A battalon of police en foot followed escorting tho chief marshal. Geo.Butterfield. A standard bearer waved aloft the chief-mar-hal's banner, a flag of yellow silk, adorned with the arms of the state and city. The general's mounted staff, distinguished by their yellow sashes, came close behind. On Gen. Buttergeld's staff, representing Michigan, was Gen. Ainger. Next were the chief of organizations of the veteran regiments of New York militia and voluntoers They acted as a escort to Alexander B. Butts, commander-in-chief of the society of veterans of tho regular army and navy of the United States. Then, separated by a drum corps, came 10) veteran regular s>ldicrs and the Twenty- fifth regiment New York volunteer veteran association, surrounding as an escort the first tableau in the parade, which represented the rending of the declaration of independence in the state house yard, Philadelphia, by John Nixon, July 8, 177o. • i, l J . • ! • M • H I * I The next division, led by: urn, contained 400 students college and aOO of the college ef the o l Hew York, escorting a tableau of WnsbinsM ton and his generals, mounted, fhe- life*; like representation of the features. aMi* costumes of Washington. Putnam, bchuy*- leo.

[Read in N e w York April 80 at the centennial celebration of tbe inauguration of George Washington us the first president cf the United Statea.J The sword was sheathed; in April's sun Lay green tbe fields by Freedom won; And several sections, weary of debates, Joined hands at lost und were United Stutcs. O, City sitting by tho seal How proud tue day thut dawned on theo, When tue now era, long desired began, And, in its need, the hour had found the man 1 One thought the cannon salvos spoke; The resonuut bell-tower s vibrant stroke, The vo.ceiul streets, the plaudit echoing halls And prayer and hymn borne heavenward from St. Paul s. How felt the land in every part The strong throb of a nation-a heart, As its gre.it louder guve,\viUi reverend awe, His pledge for union, liberty and law ! That pledge the heavens above him heard ? Thut vow the sleep of centuries stirred; Inworld-widewonderlisteuingpcop.es bene Tneir gaze on Freeuom's greui. experiment, * Couid it succeed! Of honor sold And hopes deceived all History told. Above the wrecks that strewed tho uiourntui past, Was tho long dream of ages true at last! Thank Cod! the people's choice was jU6t, The i ouug man equal to his trust. Wise licyouu iB*e, und without weakness good, Calm in ine strength of flawless rectitude 1 His rule of justice, order, peace. Made possible tho worid s release; Taught J.CHKe una soil that power is but a trust And rule aione, which serves tho ruled, is jUbt . That Freedom generous is, but strong iu hate of iraua and selfisu wrong, Pretense that turns her holy truth to lies, Anu lawless liceuse uiaskmg in her guise. Land of his love! with one glad voice Let thy great sistcruood rejoice; A century s suns o er thee have risen and set, And, God bo praised, we are one nation yet. And still, we trust, the years to be Shall prove his nope was destiny, Leaving our nag with all u s uddea stars L nrent uy iuctiou and unstained by wars t Lo! where with patient toil he nursed And truinea the new-set plant at urst, The widening branches ot u stately tree Stretching Horn the sunrise to the sunBel sea. And in its broad and sheltering shade, bitting with none io make afraid, Were we now silent through each mighty lim b, The winds of heaven would sing the praise of him. Our first and best!— his ashes lie Beneath his own Virginian s^y. Forgive, forget, O true and ]usi and brave. The storm tuat swept above thy sacred grave 1 For, even in the awful strife Ana dark hours of tbe nation's life. Through the fierce tuinuu pierced his warning word. Their l a t h e r s voice his erring child hoara! The change for which he prayed n sought In that sharp agony was wrought; No partial interest uraws its alien line 'Twixt north and south, the cypress und the pine. One people now, all doubt beyond, His name shall be our union bond; We lift our hands to heaven, and hero and now, Take on our lips the old centennial vow. For rule and trust must needs be ours; Cliooser und chosen both are powers Equal in service as in rights, the claim Ot duty rests on each and all the same. Then lei the sovereign millions, where Our banner float in sun and air. From the warm pa.m lands to Alaska1 cold. Repeat with us the pledge a century old ? Oak Kiioli, Dunvers, Mass. —_ « . ,.

The old Spanish ideal diplomat of three centuries ago, dark, afl'able, suave, plausable, skilled in fences and restless as a ca^ed eagle, has trone wofully Qui of style. Now we expect diplomates merely to be representatives of social life, to go out to great dinners, and r e t u r n them if possible. Therefore, the first question asked regarding a newly appointed minister to a first-class power is, how rich is he? That question satisfactorily answered, all the rest is smooth sailing, and we feel really only amusement when men like Janiqs Russell Lowell and M r . Phelps come back from E n g l a n d as English as the most exacting Angiomaniac could wish. If it be then t b i t the position is a purely social one in every element, the diplomats' wife is of scarcely less national importance than the diplomat himself. If Secretary Maine and President Harrison had selected the corps abroad with sole regard to the female representation, there could hardly have been a greater success. Mrs. Lincoln, wife of the minister to England, has had a long and brilliant social experience, as the budding daughter of the then Senator Harlan d u r i n g the war indtTmrernnrtf1 ^^1 "1 1 and later as a member of the Cabinet circle, when her husband was Secretary of war. Few women are more genuinely and unconsciously American in every thought and action. Her social statutes is so well defined and her experience so broad that there is no danger that she will be overwhelmed or socially bullied by London society. A grown daughter, a son aged sixteen and a younger d a u g h t e r accompany their parents. Younger than Mrs. Lincoln by many years, is Mrs. Whitelaw Keid, daughter of D 0 . Mills, the millionaire of California creation. She is very attractive in appearance, of the blonde order, above the medium height, mid so notable in dress for subdued colors. Mr. Reici will rent a magnificent hotel.in Paris, and it is safe to say that his own thousands, ably assisted by the Mills millions, will create a re-peri able >risation even at the Creiirh Capital. They will take with Uiein I heir >on i>i seven and daughter, a tot of live years. To the land of Andalusia, where we have sent more gifted l i b r a r y m m than to any other court, Mr. L a l m t r i s accompanied only by his wife, I>fin_g childless. Mrs. Palmer is a native of Maine, and was an heire-s when she met and married Thomas \V. Palmer. While her hu.->band was in tie- Senate. Mrs, Palmer was a notible figure in Washington society and proved herself a very clever society leader as well as a kind and genial personality. T h e wife of Col. >'red Grain, was Ida Marie Honore, at the time of her marriage tbe recognized belle of Chicago. She is a very tine musician and somewhat of a linguist. There are several y o u n g children, including a'daughter born in tbe White House in 187G. I n time of peace, tbe slowest thing know to man is the War Department, not only on account of its red t a r e , but also on account of its desire to be dilatory. It is a striking illustration of this fact t h a t the Army is always having trouble with the Government P r i n t i n g office. When every ol her excuse for delaying reports has been wore threadbare, the officers always fall back upon the time honored charge t h a t it is the fault of the Public Printer. Other Departments are satisfied and their reports appear promptly. After waiting four months it is discovered t h a t the Army Register even when issued has been wrongly indexed, and it will take another month to correct that defact. The work of arranging the Army regulations has occupied the expensive attention of a board of officers for nearly ten years and on the eve that an anxious world breathlessly awaits its poaitive appearance, it is discovered that, "several important errors on the part of tbe printer" will delay the publication. And yet Unpeople wonrier that, the 1'nblic Printers sometimes stray from the narrow paths of virtue and long to j u m p the fence and vigorously toy with the A r m y with an axe.

Sigler'.s d r u ^ store,. the Threshing Machines then in use were almost wholly of tl c class known as the "Endless Apron" style. Then it was that Nichols & Shepard, of Battle Creek, Mich.,invented and began to develop an entirely new and novel style of Grain Thresher and Separator, which they very appropriately named the "Vibcator." It was a revolution inQJlreshing Machines, and from a small beginning of five machines in 1858 they soon reached a product of 1,000 yearly. Their Vibrator drove the " Endless Apron" machine out of mar* ket, and all other makers copied it as closely as they dared. Today all Threshing Machines of any reputation or merit use the principles of the old Vibrator. Nichols & Shepard have continued in the business without change of name, location, or management; and during the past three years have brought out and developed another new Threshing Machine for grain and seeds, as superior to all existing machines as their former was to the 'Endless Apron.' They name this new and improved Thresher P I HltEHSSORTKIENr. ^ ¾ ¾ ' *•/&' V ° - & • •'$«& \ LAMPS., LAMP GOODS CHURNS, VASES, • DISHES IN ALL GRADES AND SHAPES.

On Sunday night about eight o'clock Mr. Sober took the lamp and started up stairs to bed. Just about the time that he started th.> front door was broken open and two men entered.

Then a .-hallow fcod box should •be placed in front of each calf, and a very small handful! of oats dropped in to this and the calf s attention directed to it, by the feeder. In a c-hort time the calf can be taught to eat oats as soon as the milk has been drunk. This is far better than letting him waste his time trying to swallow his neighbor's ears. Idleness is as bad tor calf as a boy;, We have been feeding a number of calves at the Staion, giving for severa weeks, 15 lbs. of milk in three feeddaily. Later we gave 20 pounds in three feeds. I find as a result of 1"? weeks feeding that in addition to the milk named the valves have consumed on the ayvragc a little over 10 ounceof oats per day for this period. . Ai first they only ate a mere pinch, ami towards the last of the period over a pound per lay. We also are now giving of oil meal pudding a very little 1^-11 day. The growth of the calves is enfrely satisfactory, averaging from one po'ind to one and seven-tenths daily upon tie feed named. Success i>i stock management for most perp'e must begin with success in handling a calf, am: this is too much neglected by many. If any of our readers should happen in Madison, let them call at the Station and see a bunch of calves now being fed as I.lipve indicated, and I think they will admit that good cakes can be raised on the \'eed named.

A series of distressing accidents occurred on the lake front in Chicago on the evening of April 30, just as the festivities of the day were closing, which marred the joyous proceedings of the entire day. A crowd of 100,000 persons were present. Five persons were fatally injured in the crush of people and a score or more received wounds of a serious nature. But few of the names of those injured could bo learned, owing to the fact that the majority of them were cared for by their friends and taken to their homes. The panic was caused by the premature explosion of fireworks used in tho celebration of the inaugural centennial. The same evening a crowd was gathered in Lincoln park. When the last rocket had exploded the people made a rush for every street loading from the south end of the park. The wooden sidewalk at the n o r t h w e s t corner gave way and several hundred persons tell live or six feet. In the scramble to get away women and children were trampled and many painfully injured. The crowd surged across the street und broke down the other sidewalk and a number of women and children were more or less injured, lturnlng Mountain*.

On May 30 the Haymarket monument is to be unveiled, and that the anarchists of Chicago are already preparing forthe eveut is evidenced by the Issuance by some secret printing eatdbjiahment of an inflammatory circular, copies of which have fallen into the hands of the police. One of the circulars was enclosed in an envelope aud sent to Chief Hubbard. Another was found lying on the base of the monument in Haymarket square. I t is believed that many other copies of the circular have been secretly circulated among the anarchists, who An known to bo still loyal to the memory of Spies, Parsons and the rest. The circular reads as follows: "May 4, la86, uud Ncv. 11. i8S7. ''May 4, ISSe! A peaceable people attacked by ISO armed policemen, acting under orders of a well known buUy una ruffian, contrary to the demands of the mayor of the city!

A dispatch from Guthrie, Oklahomu, gives the following account of a battle between cowboys und veterans iu the new territory, said to have occurred one day last week: The tight lasted nearly an hour. The old soldiers arc located on tho Canadian river, near tho southern border. Their lands are very desirable, and a number of cowboys tried to take them from tho settlers. The cowboys were mounted on fleet ponies and rode down on the camp, evidently with the intention of surprising ttiem. The soldiers, however, wen! prepared for them. The cowboys roue down the line yelling and lh'ing revolvers. The old soldiers began to j^et their guns, when the cowboys turned and dashed across tho prairie. A volley from tho soldiers brought down a man aud horsu. Tho rider of tho latter jumped on the back of a companion's pony iind in a minute all the cowboys were o\i t of rauge. Alter this the tight was after the Indian fashion, the horses were used as barricades and over their bucks the cowboys shot and killed six members of the colony. When it was soon that the soldiers were being worsted they drew up inline and the order for an advance was given. The enemy retreated 10 the bushes, aud for half an hour longer the tiring continued, but only one m;vn was wounded and nine killed. At the expiration of this time the cowboys jumpet'r'to the bucks of their horses. :ind dashed madly across tho country, yelling in retreat that they would soon return. AY. H. B A H N I M DEAD. The Well Known Politician a t Kcst. Hon. William II. Barnum, chairman of the national democratic committee, died at Lime Rock, Conn., April ;<0. Wm. H. Harnum wa* for a generation prominent in the democratic politics of the nation. Ho was a native of Connecticut, 72 years of age, aud gained his greatest promniece by the management of Mr. Tildeu s campaign, 13 years auo, and he was, early and late, the closu friend of Mr. Tilden. He served severnl times in congress, whore he was an intense protectionist democrat. S nee the Hancock campaign of 1&0 he had little to do with public movements. Mr. Barnum was a millionaire several times over. He made his money in tho iron trade and had much of it invested in Michigan. He had heavy interests in iron mines in the upjwr peninsula, tho famous Barnum mine in the upper peninsula taking its name from him. and he was one of the organizers of the old Detroit and Lake Superior furnace company in Detroit, which he controlled for many years. Our Naval Strength. The present force of enlisted men in the navy aggregates about 8,.rAK) men. It is the t pinion of Commodore Schley that a force of 15,000, or nearly 7.000 additional, will be required to equip the vessels already authorized by congress. It is more than likely that an effort will bo made to secure some sort of provision for these enlisted men in the n a . y so th&t the government cun command the very bo.it type of manhood for its Bailors. The officers aro already provided for by the retired list. The lu^t congress arranged tho savings bank system so tftnt tho money which was retained from the sailors until they were finally paid off could be deposited with tho paymaster and would d r a w four per cent intereBt. This money is nnn-forfeUable for any cause except desertion. Other steps in behalf of tho men are in consideration. Nations.! Matters Condensed.

B*" HON. M R S . X. P . CHAPTER IV. T h e d t o r m had burst. A h o r r o r no l o n g e r nameless* and dreaded, but •tangible*and surpassing all the wildest ifear of 'the most fearful, was t u r n i n g India's, golden land into one scene of bloodshed and cruelty, t o r t u r e and terror. Too'late now for escape or safety. Lady Ruskin's wayward selfishness had brought its terrible punishment upon not only herself, but her husband and cousin. All- escape was cut off from the little town of B by the hords. of natives who \were besieging it. Fire and death, wounds and sickness, filled each *day with new distress, and the devoted • little band of English thus shut up in their terrible plight could only pray and hope for the deliverance thoy surely trusted would come. Ah, but when? Each day might make it too late. As gold is purified by fire, BO in a time.like this ail that was good in hum a n nature came gradually out. Men performed prodigies of valor and endurance; women displayed wonderful patience and courage. Lady Ruskin had no good in her, and in this scene of trial, for which she had herself to thank, she was a perfect burden of selfish repining and miserable alarm. Dorothy Poauchamp became a h e r o - ine. Quietly and unobtrusively, yet with the unfaltering courage and steadfastness only a grand nature: can show, she came to the front and did v.n ^heroine's or an angel's work. Nothing caraejimiss to her—-tending the sick, succoring~-the wounded, and sympathizing, with tiro-bereaved, encouraging the bra^p; tirelMrs>-4>aiient, capable, with no thought of i«>rf7~a£ul^never a look of fear or repining upon dun. sweet face. Dorothy Ueauchump never failed nor gave in, and the roughest men watched for her coming, and breathed a silent prayer for her sa'ety as she passed in and out, a very angel among them. " W h e r e are you going?'' an abrupt voicestopped Dorothy as she was crossing thei barrack-yard. She iooked up, and a faint tinge of color oame into the lovely white face as she saw the man who hud stopped Ivor—the handsome soldier whose face she had never yet clearly seen. Glad of an instant's rest the girl leaned against the wall as she replied: " I am going round to the outposts as usual, just to give the men tidings i of their friends, and say a prayor for those who like it. Each day 1 miss some faces,"1 her lips quivered. "And will d o , " the man replied briefly. " T h o fire is heavy on the inorth side to-dav — terribly heavv. You.mustnot go, Miss Heauchamp." She shook her head with a faint sad smile. v l must go," she said faintly. " T h e imen look for my coming: I promised them. And Share's wife is dead, and left him a message. 1 must give it toiday or it may be too lale. " " I s your own life of no account?" t h e soldier asked, half angrily—half with.a tenderness in his accents which •colored the girl's face again. "J have atched you day by day doing what no a m o n g ns could do. You arc doon angel's work, but it will kill vauraelf if it goes on t h u s . " •••'I ,am not afraid," she >only said softly.; " W e can but do out utmost, and trust to a Higher Power for aid." He looked at the exquisite, frail, brave &>rin, at tbe sweet grave face; t h e soft .dark hair was all cut o4T, and clustered, damp with the terrible heat, in silky little rings around the ibnoad brow, on which the toluo veins showed too clearly; tho once pretty white frock, now torn and #oiled with matiy 4fcrt. stains, h»ng loosely upon the girl- "~gure. e little hands were rortgfasjed liy eir unaccustomed toil, tout the glorious eyes were ntoro lovely than (Jver, 4eop and scriou*. calm and swoot. Out from them looked the brave woman's soul within, and the soldier knew t h a t thi« weak young girl might die beneath h e r avlf-imposod task—:th, tho likelihood of that was all too apparent!— but would never neglect one particle of it. Ha turned aside for :v moment to bide some amotion be* did not wish h e r to t e e ; then ho said quietly: "If yoa will gos let me accompany you. I may be some protection, and I can spare the time just now." He was t a k i n g it from the two Utile hours of sleep which wero all t h a t ooufcd be allotted to the over-worked scanty garrison. But Dorothy did not know that. Side by side the soldier and the maiden were crossing the yard, when they ran against one of t h e officers, Major Harvey, who looked wxcitedaad flushed. He just bowed %9 Dorothy, t h e n turned hastily to a or companion. "Smith, I want a man to <do a hero'8 work. Wo can't hold out much longer at this rate. T h e i r numbers have increased. W e have one chance and only one. If Bomeone oould get across to K and tell of our plight, they might send us reinforcement*, and savo us. Their strength is just augmented. Ta-niorrow will be too late. But who dare take th« message and the risk of such a journey?" "Send mer, sir," t h e soldier said quietly and without a moment's hesitation, as if it were a message into the mess-room h e proposed taking instead of a ride for miles across the country insested by the rebels, and some portions of it swept by their guns. The Major hesitated and looked at him. "You will do It, Smith, if a man can do it, I believe. You can ride over anything^Uiat I 'know of—cross-country at home? Ah, yes—but I don't disguise the danger of this. If you get there the chances are a hundred to one of your returning alive Whoever undertakes this must d o i t voluntarily." " I volunteer, sir.'" Dorothy's d a r k eyes glanced up with an unconscious agony of appeal in tfheir depths, She did not speak, but hor breath came quick and short, and the Holdier turned from that eloquent look. •••If I get to K , sir, I care nothing for the rest," h e said in a firm steady voice, " I will write tho note and .meet you here again," t h e major said, and hurried oil': "You will g o ? " Dorothy spoke quietly, but her eyes paid what her lips'Could not frame. "Would you h a v e m e l e s s brave than a woman—yourself?" was his only reply. She*drew a deep quivering sigh. "Don't start till I get back," she said, and hurried-on her rounds. He \tus just on the point of leaving the barrack-yard when she .returned, breathless, and .if possible paler than before. "(iod speed you!" she said solemnly, placing her little hand lor one instant in his. "I will pray for your safe re- "tnuii; we can ill afford to lose such men as^you." lie r a i s t u r t h ^ n t t l e hand to his lips, then pressed it to'^Ms^heart-—that was all; just that mute farewe+l, and then ho WKH gone—to ride in tho very teeth of death, with the lives of all his comrades probably hanging upon his own. With anguished eyes the girl lifted her fn.i e and h e a r t for one moment in silent, earnest prayer, thon she turned to her work, and compelled herself to be absorbed in it; and the timo went on, each moment fraught with anxious fear and dread, and faint half-Impossible hope. The lime went on until a weight like nothing Dorothy had ever known before crushed down her bravo voung heart. She went -restlessly out into the veranda to listen and watch, and she saw Major Harvey standing t h e r e looking graver than his wont. "Ma;'oi' Harvey,'' the girl said gaspingly, "do you think there is any chance now? Would not Smith have been ba 'k before this if—" "Yes, I fear so. It was a last chance and our only one. Ho may have got across, however, even if he failed to get back. Keep tip heart, Miss Dorot h y ! things cannot get much worse." But there was little.cheerfulness in the attempt to cheer. A look .came into the lovely dark eyes* which t h e major could not u n d e r - stand. "You thin'k he—Smith—is certainly killed?" " I fear so—we cannot toll-; one more brave life gone—that is all, and our own turn may come at any moment*1 " H a r k ! W h a t is t h a t — w h a t is t h a t ? " the girl bounded forward. A rush, a stir, a cheer raised long and loud, an eager little crowd collecting, which opened, however, to let Dorothy's slender figure speed in and tip to its central liglire—a tall m a n alighting from a horse and giving a strained crumpled paper into Major Harvey's eager haad, who read it as he stood there, and then cried aloud: "If we can keep up for two more days, my friends, we shall be saved!" Then the cheer broke out again, but a* it rose. Smith just sank down ut hi.-t officer's feet, and Dorothy's practiced eye mnv the thin red stream filtering through the torn uniform. Calm and helpful, Dorothy Beauchamp sood beside tho surgeon as she had stood hoside many a wounded man, for she was Dr. Car's right hand in his labuiio is work. With no trace of agitation save t h e intense pressure of the earnest line, she handed t h e surgeon his appliances, and waited for his verdiot as he examined Smith's wound. " N o t fatal," he said brightly. " W e shall have him about again in a very short time, Miss Beaucbamp; we can ill aford to lose a man like this. H e will have t h e Victoria Cross, I should say, if he lives to return home, and never man deserved it more. J u s t give me t h a t linen, Miss Beauchamp; I wifl finish his dressing before he returns to consciousness," Dorothy gavo a nervous start and handed the linen with a sudden flush upon her thin sweet face. W h a t memories! What flood of sudden old dear memories came upon h e r at sight of that handsome face laid white and still upon the pillow, clearly a n a fully exposed for the first time to her gaze! She gave a great start, but she had no time for thought, as the busy surgeon began his task. "Here, take this, Miss Beauchamp; keep it for him when he asks for it, will you? Sonio love-token, no doubt, poor fellow! Ah well, a woman might be proud to be constant to a man like this, Curious thing, though, this little trinket has, without doubt, diverted the bullet's c o u r s e Strange, now;, on how trifling a thing one's existence hangs; this bit of gold has saved yon poor fellow's life." Dorothy, accustomed to the little doctor's moralizing, went on with her preparing of tho dressings without glancing at t h e trinket which Dr. Car p u t down as he continued his work, but when the wound was dressed, he picked it up again. "Look here, Miss Beauchamp, how this gold is bent; without doubt it saved the poor fellows life by diverting the bullet's course; just one hair's breadth to t h e right would have made all the difference." Dorothy looked at the trinket then and uttered a little cry. She stretched ou her hand for it, and as she held the little crescent set with diamonds, and suspended to a slender golden chain, all her vague memories assumed shapes of, certainties. TO BE CONTINUED. St. Patrick and the Pirates. During P a t r i c k s childhood, while playing upon the seashore with his two sisters one day, he was seized by Irish pirates, taken to Ireland and sold to the petty chieftain of a pagan elan in that country. Like the prodigal son, he was sent into the field to feed swine. While thus engaged, the religious instruction received from his pious mother came fresh to his mind and touched his heart. Bowing before (iod he sought and obtained pardon for sins. St. Patrick has left a vivid account of his being thus converted. It is contained in a LatiftTTianuscript which he calls his "Confession," and which, with a letter—also in Latin—addressed to Coroticus.a Welsh chieftain, who had seized several of Patrick's Irish converts, is the only literary relic of him that has been preserved. " I was 16 years old,'1 he says, " a n d knew not the true (iod; but, in that strange land, the Lord opened my unbelieving eyes, and, although late. I called my sins to mind, and was converted with my whole heart to the Lord, my God, who regarded my low estate, had pity on my youth and ignorance, and consoled me as a father consoles his children.." Thus it was that this young swinohcad was born again by tho truth and spirit of God, while wandering, solitary and alone, over the green pastures of Ireland. Of the power and genuineness of his subsequent religious experience he writes as follows: "The love of (iod increased more and more in me, with faith and the fear of his name. The spirit urged me to such a degree that I poured fourth as many as 100 prayers in one daj-.. And even dtiring the night, in the forests and on the mountains whore I fed my fioek, the rain. snow and frost, and sufferings which I endured, excited me to look after (iod. * * * The Spirit fermented in my h e a r t . " St. Patricks Legends. In his .efforts to convert the Irish pagans St. Patrick met with muph opposition from their heathen priests, the Druids, who employed every possible trick 'and deception to retain their hold upon the people. It was to expose these impostors that many of JSL Patrick's most remarkable miracles were performed. "He cursed the kettles which the Druids employed in the performance of their mysteries, so that nothing could be boiled in them. He transformed the fertile lands into bogs, and banished tho fish from the waters* to show tho marvelous power he had derived from God. But the Druids still remaining obstinate, he caused tho earth to swallow them up, and so put an end to Druids in Ireland forever. Another of St. Patrick's miracles is thus described in the old Irish ballad of "Polly Roe:" St. Patrick, as in lo-cmls lo!d, The morning be in g very cold, In order to assuage the wo .ther, Co:letted bits of ice l e a t h e r ; Then gently breathed cpou the pyre, Wheu every fragment blazed ou tiro.

The dressed-beef handlers of Missouri, who have i:irge interests in Kansas City, have adopted a novel way of making war on the states which pass laws, like that of Indiina, for the exclusion of all meats not produced within the state.

Papers bearing specially on tbe notorious Robinson arsenical poisoning cases had been announced. Dr. Holt declared that there was general igxrtmoce of the symptoms of arsenical poisoning, and claimed that because of thU ignorance the Robinson poisoning cases had gone on without arousing suspicions on the part of medical men. There were, be said, at least eight cases of criminal poisoning; sev^o occurred within five years, and in one family, and the other was that of a relitive. The cases were all treated by physicians of large practice, prominent in the profession, and yet no suspicion of arsenical poisoning was aronsed until an organization in which the victims were insured tried to determine by investigation wby so many persons died suddenly in this family. In support of his statement as to t h e ignorance of medical men of the symptoms of arsenical poisoning, the doctor remarked that certificates of death were given in five of the Robinson cases as follows: pneumonia, typhoid fever, meningitis, bowel disease and Bright s disease. The startling disclosure of the stupid ignorance shown in the treatment of those cases is quite in keeping with tbe usual indiscretion manifested by the profession in the treatment of persona whq are sufferers from the slow and subtle poison which is generated in the system from a diseased state of the kidneys. The afflicted are treated for consumption,, apoplexy, for brain and various nervous disorders, when in most instances it is shown when too late, that the patient was wrongfully and ignorantly treated for a supposed disease which was, in reality, but a symptom of kidney disease, and should have been timely treated as such by the use of Warner's Safe Cure, which is the only remedy known that can be successfully relied upon in the treatment of Buch disease. Such exhibitions of stupidity by those who profess zreat intelligence in such matters is calculated to destroy confidence, and it can be well said that a remedy like Warners Safe Cure, which places the direct means of preserving health in the sufferer's hands, is far more meritorious than high-priced medical advice which is e* generally worthless and too often basei upon on erroneous opinion as to the true cause of illness. Human life is just a little too preciouB to the avearge individual to be sacrificed to the bigotry or the ignorance of others WELCOME IN HIS OLD AGE.

A family picnic party, distributed in three cairiajjes, left the White House Saturday morning. Two nurses sat on the front seal of the first earring, holding two round faced babies, who » looked as though just rudely awakened. Benjamin Harrison McKee, as a very young gentleman who had been forced into public life at a two tender age, looked serious and,, «bsorl.ed. Miry McKee as an infantile society leader called up too early, to plunj?e again into the mad vortex, impolitely yawned and finally refused to be comforted. Grandfather and Grand mot har Harrison occupied the back seat, fn the second carriage was Secretary Windom and in the third Secretary Rusk. In half an hour all the party had crossed the gang plank of th3 U. S. S. Dispatch, Benny McKee aud the President crossing hand in hand. In a few moments the starting bell was rung and a three days cruise commenced. The Presidential party will probably return to-morrow. Private Secretary Halford did not so to sea, but took advantage of the ab- 4senee of bis chief to go to Atlanta, "Georgia, where his wife and children are visiting. The regular office seekers did not turn up on Saturday or today. The office seekor is a reading animal well abreast of the day and he keeps track of the .President's movements. On Saturday the usual crowd of tourists came, took the President's absence as an injury and that of Secretary Halford as an insult, and had revenge in scouring the rooms open to the public. _AJarge_p_arty_P_f.J^umbia College students, unable to see the President cheered long and loud for Mr. Harrison, and then for Mr. Morton, seemingly under the impression that Mr. Morton also lives in the White House. After trying to think of some "" one else to cheer and failing, the boys let out three lusty cheers for their college and drove off. Advantage is taken of the absence of the President and Mrs. Harrison to hastily do a little .spring cleaning. The carpets have all heed* taken up and curtains removed. Carpets will not be put down again until fall. An important movement in the cleaning line has been-the removal of nearty ten tons of old printed matter. Government reports of no importance to anyone living a n l stores of newspapers that nobody is able to account for, were brought forth from the garrets and consigned to the junk shop. The appointment of Mr. Palmer, of Chicago, as government printer is gen-, ©rally regarded as an excellent one. Mr. Palmer has been a printer, bookbinder, editor and Congressman. He is essentially a practical man, and only such a man can harrdle the unwieldy business of the government printing office. There is no bureau of this government that compares with it in the amount of petty patronage to be distributed and thej number of speculations to be eradicated. The cheapest 6ort of Congressmen generally control the appointments and for years it has been radically a political office. A large minority of its employes are an Arab race, generally holding positions by ""the entiio family, and- willing to turn to be either Democrats or Republicans at a moments notice and without ruffling a feather. Add to these facts, that the Public Printer must needs look to the next session of the Senate December for confirmation and you will see how anxious a summer he will pass, conciliating a big Senator with twenty appointments and a Small Senator for big and little there are even of kings—with two appointments. Thus, though ' his selection comes, under the circumstances, very early, Mr. Palmer wishes it were later in the season. The appointment of Capt. Merideth, the other Chicago candidate for Public Printer, to be head of the Bureau of Printing and Engraving, is expected this week. Of course it will raise a howl amonflr candidates from other bt»tes, but Illinois will be content, a t Ittut tor a few weeks. u. ^uTanry'stuck. Ste»dv employment ^uar.nt d. SAl.

Five hundred and forty-seven of these reports are from 391 townships in the southern four tiers of counties, and 137 reports from 124 townships in the central counties. It is now clear that the amount of wheat winter-killed or otherwise destroyed preyious to the first instant is insignificant. With rare exceptions the reports show the crop to have been at the date in a very good condition, especially if the open winter and lack of rainfall be considered. The exact figures are 90 per cent in the southern counties, 97 in the central, and 100 in the northern, comparison in each case being with vitality and growth of average years. On the 1st of May, 1S88, the condition in the southern counties was 65, in the central 67, and in the northern 90. In May, 1887, the condition in the southern couniiea was 87, and in 1886 90, or the same as this vear. tl •ft The figures above given for May 1, *of tbia year, without- doobfc fairly rep Te'feent the condition at that time, but since tben the crop has suffered greatly, possibly beyond recovery, from drouth. At the time the reports were forwarded a drouth that was just becoming serious prevailed throughout the State. Correspondents almost without excep-i tion note the lightness of the rainfull. From May I to this writing (May 10) there has been hardly more'than a trace of rainfall. The weather is extremely warm, the maximum temperature of the past six days ranging from 71° to85« F. The conditioa of the ground in the southern counties to withstand drouth will be understood if we consider that in the four months, May-August, immediately preceding wheat sowing last fall the rainfall was more than four incites less than the normal, and that the total precipitation (rain and melted snow) in the eight months since September 1 is 7 and 3-hundredths inches less than the normal, a total deficiency of more than 11 inches in the 12 months ending with the first of the present month. In other words, the rainfall daring the year ending May 1 was but a trifle more than two-thirds the ayerage or normal as determined by observations for from seven to eighteen years at the different stations. Reports have been received of tbt quantity of wheat marketed by farmers during the month of April at 324 elevators and mills. Of these 267 are in the southern tour tiers of counties, which is 45 per cent, and 44 are in the | fifth and sixth tiers of counties, which is 38 per cent of the whole number in these sections respectively. The total number of bushels reported ^marketed is 279,517, of which 62,145 bushels were marketed in the first or southern tier of counties; 76,146 bushels in the second tier; 44,048 bushels in the third tier; 67,260 bushels in the fourth tier; 25,663 bushels in the fifth and sixth tiers; and 4,255 bushels in the northern counties. At 62 elevators and mills, or 19 per cent of the whole number from which reports have been received, there was no wheat marketed during the month. The total number of bushels of wheat reported marketed in the nine months, August-April, is 13,550,747, or about 57 per cent of the crop of 1888. The number of bushels reported marketed in the same months of 1887-8 was 12,230,446, or 53 per cent of. the crop of 1887. In 1887-8-reports were received from about 50 per cent, and in 1888-9 from about 69 per cent of the elevators and mills in the southern four tiers of counties. Cloyer meadows and pastures are reported in rather better condition than one month ago. The figures showing average condition are for the southern counties, 87; central, 93, and northern 97. Old clover, or that seeded previous to last year, has been severely injured, much of it destroyed. Nothing has yet occurred to lower the prospects for fruit. The outiook is good for very nearly a full average crop. ttrand Trout Railway Tine Trito. MICHIGAN 4IR LITTB TUVWIOW.

L u c e ' s R e a s o n s . Gov. Luce, in his message to the house recommending a return to the county system of earing for the insane, gives his reasons as follows; "It is believed that the provision requiringt're * tato to pay expenses has greatly increased our asylum population by reason of such payment. Some of the counties are provided with facilities for caring for insane patients, and nearly all of them can more economic illy provide for some who are found in tho asylu n. They are sent there by proper authorities; Hie nsylums cannot refuse to receive them. The people of the county are not interested in their discharge. All this creates a demaud for increased facilities. The expense to the s-tate is rapidly incre sing. It will be, in t.b^p>common course; of events, but a few years until each legislature will bo. ask- •ed to appropriate a million dollars or more,, to pay theso expenses. There is another objection to this. Some counties pay much more than their fair and just, proportion, and to this they seriousiy object, *'. * * 1 believe this policy is wrong/in the ex treme. and very earnestly urge upon the attention c'-ttNVlegislature the propriety of amending the law so that each county shall pay the expenses incurred for the c ire and treatment of the insane sent to the stale institutions from suqh'county. This will remove the objection . raised by the counties which pay more than their fair proportion. It will give them an opportunity to care for patients that do not particularly require medical attendance, and it will reduce the demands for increase in accommodations in tttatc asylums.

The I'nited State* o u r t in an opinion by Justice Bradley, awarded tho executors of the will of M.\ ra ( lark Gaines the sum of .*C>;r>,oO0 against the city of New Orleans for the use of property sold by the city but recovered by Mrs. Gaines alter long litigation. The judgment of the lower court* awarding (he executors $1,: 0,),0,(0 for the use t)t the unimproved property sokl by the city was not concurred iu. This case probably has been the most interesting, the harde d contested and the most prolonged known t-o the judicial history of 1 his country. Over :.'() years 11 go Justice Wayne of the United Sia es supreme court said that when the hist .rian of 'die American bar should come to write up the case it would be legistered as the most remarkab.e in the hislory of America. The case had then been before the supremo court five times in one form or another and has now been decided as many times sigaiu. The firs1 suit, in the case was brought by Mrs, Gaines nhcn ihe wife of Gen. Whitney.) in ISil and since that time decision has followed decision in regard to it unul it has become a by-word that there is always a (Haines case peuding. Tho tirst suit brought to recover what was known as the Kvai'iste Blanc tract in New Orleans. Blanc, bought the tract for ahoui four, thousand live hundred dollars from the executors of Gen Pan.el Claik, a prominent citi/.cn of New Oilcans, lie sold it and some other land to the city of New Orleans for Sla.000 and the city subdivided the tract and sold it, to a number of persons for between six and seven hundred thou-and dollars, agreeing to defend all questions of title, Mrs, Gaines having a few months before claimed it. The grounds on whl.di Mrs. Gaines set up her claim were that she was the child of Gen. Glark by a secret marriage between him and Zalime" Carriers, a woman well kuown in the city, and that Gen. Clark had lelt a later will t an the one under which the property was sold. This secret marriage formed the axis on which the litigation revolved, and the vase was fought with bitterness on both sides. It Was not until a few years before the w a r that Mrs. Gaines was finally declared to I e the legitimate child as well as the lawful heir of Gen. Clark.

N.F. \ CHAPTER VI. JSo held bad arrived. The anxiously looked-for, fervently-prayed-for r e - inforcements had not come yet, and each moment now might make their coming of no avail. Things had grown worse and worse. The enemy's lire increased ns the brave little garrison decreased, and the most awful of all rumor* was whispered from one to another with despairing face—the ammunition was falling short. • " I think things are nearly at am end, Mr. Leigh," Dorothy said, coming up to her patient with a new look upon her white young face. " I have just been talking to Major Harvey, and he says—we all know it, and we are all prepared—he says if we are a c t succored in three hours wo must ,1 She did not finish her sentence, oxcept by the anguish in her brave eyes. The next instant she tried to smile; but Leigh's face had grown white to the very lipH. Ho caught the little hand and held it as in a vice, while he rose from his couch and stood'upright. "Dorothy, stay with me,11 he said in hoarse unsteady accents. "Stay with me, my little one, for these few remaining hours. I will protect you while a drop of blood remains in my veins, and then I would slay you with ray own hand, Dorothy, rather than you should fall among those fiends outside." His t e e h were clenched between tho bloodless lips. ,"I have a revolver here,'" the girl said, drawing one from the folds of her gown. " I t is loaded, Mr. Leigh. I have kept it always on purpose. When hope is over I can dio. 'J shall kill mvself before one of those outside enter." She gave a quick involuntary shudder, and then tho b; avo deep eyes looked into Eberhard's, anil his were strained and filled with a horror of agony like nothing the m;ui?s life had ever known before. "The end is coming now, Eberhard, and I think that the worst is over." "Stay with me!" ho only repeated, crushing the little fingers i n his convulsive gra-p. But self was lost in Dorothy now. " I will come back in a minute," she said, disengaging herself firmly. "I must just fetch Elvira. She is in tho he all an- *he flames leaped , spreading like heated combustiofflcers1 quarters all alone. Sir Peter died this morning." Tho slight white figure sped away, and Lord Lester stood, forgetfiil of his wound—forgetful of everything but the moments he counted with [feverish impatience until the girl returned. " W h a t is t h a t ? " Suddenly started as a found, excecOing Others "fell on his ear, and .a cry swered him: "A shell struck the officers' quarters They are«on fire!" Then suddenly, ae upward and outwar wild lire among tho hies, someone cried: "Miss Beauchamp is t h e r e ! " Two or:three darted* to the rescue, but one was there before them. Weakness and wound forgotten, and a giant's strength momentarily possessod, Eberhard, Lord Lester, dashed across the yard n<rw swept by a scathing fire from t h e enemy's.guns, and gained tho ling pile. 4j4he entered it ha saw her, the tlfo-white figure with the soft d a r k !?l^ing on tho ground, the little tlaspetl i n unconsciousness. ig it in his 'herculean grasp, soldier again faced the open square. Shot and shell whistled around him ae ho r.an the gauntlet with his precious burden. Those .watching him i» breathless eagerness, saw him stagger once us if struck. " H e is down," they mua*mured. " N o ; he has recovered; he ia -gaining shelter. Bravo! he teas saved h e r . " • Lord Lester gained the building, » n i staggoring again, white and e\- ;d now, laid fcus burden upon the ^enderly—gently. it down, face upwards, and srrible cry—a cry whose dosld pain nono of those who heard it ever forgot-—broke from the man as h e saw t h e features of tho woman ho had saved. '•It is not Dorothy," he cried. "1 have left my own darling to dio." ••I am here, Eberhard," a sweet .voice said, and Dorothy Boauchamp's eyes, holding even in this awful momant a strange, deep, sudden happiness, grazed into his. " I followed y o u / ' she said simply. " I was close by, waiting to help Elvira, when you picked h e r up. I ran behind you, and you sheltered me to a great e x t e n t No; I am not wounded—not even scratched," answering his unspoken question; but then her glance fell on h e r cousin, and she knelt down beside her with a cry. " E l v i r a ! Look at her. She is dying!" The surgeon who chanced to be there bent over Lady Buskin's silent form. " N o h o p e , " he said with a shake of his head', " t h o ball has struck a vital s p o t It is only a question of minutes. I can d o nothing." " W h a t is only a question of minutes?" a. shrill agonized voice wailed, and Elvira opened her eyes end half Bat up. T h e ball which h a d caused Leigh t o stagger as it struck his "burden had indeed hit a vital spot. The dark wild eyes gazing up from one to another of t h e fa'-'ea around, were already g l a d n g ; the face was assuming the ghastly pallor which portends death, "Dying! Who is dying?" tho terrified voice cried. "'I cannot die; I dare not die. Save me, doctor. Dorothy— Eberhard, save me! I will do anything—malce any amends. I will restore all—confess all—tell the world the truth. 1—I committed , the forgery on Lord Lester's name. Eberhard Leigh i s innocent. Tell the whole world this—the truth, 1 say. Clear his name; I will bear all the penalty. I confess—I confess—but I cannot die. 1 have been so wicked— so bad—I dare not die!" Her voice rose to a scream, which in its agony pierced Dorothy's heart. "Oh, do something for her—do something for her!" she entreated, raising tear-dimmed eyes to the surgeon's face. But even as the words left h e r lips they saw t h a t it was too late. Lady Ruskln's voice ceased suddenl y ; she fell back—she was dead. But with death stealing swiftly upon each one of that little devoted band there did not seem so great a gulf between them. Each minute ticked by the clock brought the end nearer, nearer, nearer. All who could do service were doing what their failing means allowed to prolong the struggle in despairing hope; but Dorothy knelt by Lord Lester's side in the room in which h.ejuiead_cQusin lay~ x E b e r h a r d had sunk upon a couch, exhausted by the effort lately made. Dorothy held his hand in* silence: his arm around her waist; her weary head was pillowed on his shoulder; her other hand held the tiny revolver firmly. "You will remember," she said, looking in his face for an instant. " W o will die together," he said, quietly. "Ah, darling, t h a t is all we can hope for now!" Kneeling .th^re the girl prayed half audibly, half brokenly, and the man's deeper voice joined in the holy solemn words. Only a Higher Power could save thorn now; all hope of human aid was given up. " W h a t is that—what is t h a t ? " Dorothy exclaimed, suddenly starting to her feet. "Oh, Eberhard, is it t r u e ? " She raised iher revolver and looked at him. " H u s h ! " ho said, putting his hand on tho tiny weapon, as ho stood erect listening intently with ashen face. "Those are not tho voices of those brutes outsides, Dorothy; that is an English cheer—those aro our own men joining! That is the strain of an advancing band! They are here at last! They arcrcoming in time! My darling, we are saved!" For one instant Dorothy stood listening to the advancing clear-growing sounds—?,tood wiih IICL* lover's arm tightly around her, her pale pure face irradiated by a wondrous glow. For one instant she turned and looked into the eyes seeking hers with a passion of tenderness and love in their depths. Then, as t h e rescuing music echoed close at hand, and the cheers rose long and loud, the girl slipped to the ground, and knett, there with clasped hands and upraised eyes. " L e t us t h a n k God, E b e r h a r d , " she «obbed. CHAPTER VII. Summer in England—desr, fair old England! The stately hall of Hushtree, the country house of the Borons Lester for countless generations, was glowing in tho rays of a setting sun: the shadows were creeping long and delieiottsly cool over the wide velvetlike In win and rainbow-huod flowerbeds, over tho grand old terraces and the statues which slotted thrun here and t h e r e . In the large drawing room with its windows, half voilei by curUins of filmy lace, «et wide spen to obtain the evening breeze, Lady Les'er sat entertaining a number of visitors, who sat drinking tea and chatting. Kushtree Hall wa* always full of people, for it was the most popular horse in the county. Lord Lester was a great favorite by reason of his handsome face and genial courteois manner, and his wife—people went into ecstacy over her. The largo drawing-room was filled by beautiful costly things; money and taste unlimited had gathered together pictures, china, ornaments, embroidery, gems from every couptry in the globe, a r e specimens of Indian, Persian, Turkish, and other Eastern handicraft; while flowers—exquisite flowers and ferns, growing and cut, were everywhere; in costly old china bowls, in silver inlaid vases, in groups and singly—scented the air. It was a beautiful room but t h e most beautiful thing in its whole space was Lady Lester. Dressed in a cool white gown of thin embroidered I n d a n ^ s i l k , with black jet brooch, and bra&dAts, and jet pin fastening up her half-short, silky dark hair, she was a picture, as some of the country people said, to make old eyes young. Here was such an exquisitely sweet face—the village folk compared it to an angel's; the purg pale skin was so softly, deliciously transparent; the great, deep, gloriouB eyes were BO tender, so true; tho smile which broke over the exquisite features constantly, and lightened them up delightfully, was so bright, so winning, people loved to watch Lady Lester's face. Viewed from a distance, it looked so soft and young, it was girlish in the extreme, but, scrutinised nearer, there were indelible marks of suffering and sorrow upon it, and those it was in reality which gave Dorothy Lester's face its greatest, most subtle charm, as the never-to-be-forgotten experiences which caused those marks had lifted her character h i g h above the ordinary level. The guests departed lingeringly, and welcomed to the end by their charming hostess; then Doro'.hy strolled hatless out from the window and across the lawn into a walk winding among the lime-trees. She plucked a bunch of deep crimson roses as she passed along, and fastened them in her waistband, and with just t h a t touch of color to make her beauty perfect, she came face to face with her husband as she turned a corner. "My darling!"' Volumes we-o uttered in t h a t one ejaculation, and Lord Lester clasped his wife in his arms as she happily ran into them. " D e a r E b e r h a r d , " she said lovingly, "you are late, or it seems so to me." 4 'A good seeming^ sweetheart.; I~ eameT the instant I could get away. Have you had a pleasant afternoon?" "Oh ye?*; a great many people. They were all very nice." "You think tho whole human race nice, don"tyou, Dorothy?" "1 have my preferences—I like one person better than o t h e r s , " saucily glancing up into his admiring eyes. He kissed her for answer, and she went on, twining her arm in her husband's the while: "Some of them were talking about the mutiny this afternoon, Eberhard. It b r o u g h t back so to my mind those,awful scenes " " I won't have 'It! Yrou must not think of them, darling!" quickly. "Ah. but I never coiiid forget! My husband, do you know what was the greatest trouble—the keenest pain I had to hear in all t h a t dreadful time?" she spoke half shyly, with her earnest eyes raised, and a color oh her cheek. "You bore horrors t h a t would havekilled a n o t h e r woman, like the heroine you are, my own!" "But this—this was silly and selfish, and yet it was the worst. I fancied you loved poor Elvira still, and I pictured to myself your m a r r y i n g her, Eberhard, and I thought—I imagined —I fancied things that g a t e me pain like nothing else could give. Of course her death, poor darling, put an end to everything." Quickly, firmly Lord Lester spoke, and as be spoke he stopped dead, and placing his two hands on his wife"s shoulders, looked straight into her eyes. " H e r life altered my feelings utterly. I did love her-—I proved that by all I sacrificed for her. but with that sacrifice my love expired utterly. Had you never existed, I should never have turned again to Elvira! She was my first love, I own, but the last is best." He smiled into the sweet eyes as his voice thrilled, and his arm drew the slender figure close to his heart. "You are my last love, Dorothy—my true love; my best, the love which can never falter or "flicker for it is founded on no attraction of face or form (though you have nil that as no other woman can have, my own), but upon the ever enduring foundation of deepest respect and venerating esteem. When I watched you day by day in Cyclone Warn! a gs. The Picayune has constantly reiterated t h e importance of having a complete and thorough system of storm w a r n i n g s and meteorological observations t o give advance information of tho cyclonal hurricanes which originate in the tropical archipelagoes of the Caribbean and West Indian seas. For several years post this journal maintained, a t its own cost at Key West, special communication with Rev. Father Vines, vj<he eminent meteorologist at Havana, by which means was received and published, in advance of any other agency, intelligence of the movemeuts of the tropical cyoloue-3 towards t h e Gulf of Mexico. T h i s service has been undertaken by the United States weather bureau within about a year past, obviating the necessity for private enterprise, and the beneficial results which have com3 from these storm warnings ought te stimulate the government to provide, on a more extensive scale, for observing the meteorology of that* ro/ion which may be called the cradle of the cyclone. These storms originato in the southeastern limiti of the Carribaan Sda, and are first observed off the Windward Islands, which extsnd in a g r e i t semicircular curve, with the convex side to tho eastward, making a sort of broken but well denned chain from tho coast of Guianna, South America, to Porto Rico, the most easterly of the great West India islands. These islands are connected with Guiannese ports and with each other by telegraph cables, and thence with the United vStates by way of Key West. There is also another cable from Cuba, by way of Jamaica, to Colon. There is in addition a cable from Coatzacoalco3, on the Isthmus of Tehauntepec, to Galveston, and another from Vera Cruz, by way of Tampico, to Galveston. By means of interior and coast lines the principal gulf ports of Centra^ America aro attainable by telegraph. It is thus possible to obtain' telegraphic reports of the weather from every principal station around the Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico, and if there were some proper international arrangement intelligence of tho meteorological conditions at all im- .portant points could be obtained by wire in the United States. When storms start in those tropical seas they first move to the westward as long as they remain in tropical latitudes. Should they become diverted to the northward by tho mountain wall of Central America they either move into tho Gulf of Mexico or they sweep up along the Atlantic coast, generally following the Gulf stream. These storms operate according to general laws with a very considerable degree of regularity, and if we can only have information of their positions at several successive stations it is possible to forecast their future movements with somt> degree of reliability. At any rate by means of existing telegraph facilities it is possible to get such warning of tho approach of cyclones t h a t great benefits may inure not only to the seafaring classes, but to the people on shore. It is certainly "worth wl^ilo for the government to undertake at considerable outlay of expense to establish a p r o p e r - s y s t e m of observation to get this information. No nation is as much interested in the matter as is ours. The benefits to be secured are so great that no reasonable expense should bo spared t6-.insure information on which the most important consequences depend. We Ynust here express acknowledgements t c t h e Hydrographic Bureau of the Xavy for a carefully prepared chart in v.ii'K'h the various telegraphic conmiu nicotians between the United States and the various islands and countries to the south of us are given, with a view of urging on the attention of the public the facilities which exist for securing the establishment of a system of cyclone warning. Congress should embrace the opportunity c/lTered.—New Orleans Picayune. '"••—. Something Ton Should Know. Many of our readers have often asked "What,Is Bright's Disease of the Kidneys, about tarhioh we hear so much?" To answer their question we have secured tbo> following explanatory article, written by a competent authority. One of the worst physical scourges of the world to-d»y-iiotably in Engissd,Qermany, America and Australia—is Kidney Disease. An alarmingly large proportion of the population of the countries named is afflicted with it, In one form or another. The symptons of Blight's Disease fwhich is but an advanced form of Kidney Disease) differ in different individuals, but generally the patient presents a flabby, bloodless look, is drowsy and easily fatigued, has pain in the back, vomiting and febrile disturbance. Dropsy, varying in degree from slight pufflness of the face to an accumulation of the fluid sufficient to distend the whole body and to occasion serious embarrassment to respiration, is a very common accompaniment. The urine is reduced in quantity, is often of dark, smoky or bloody color, and exhibits to chemical reaction the presence of a large amount of albumen, while under the microscope blood corpuscles and casts are found. Very often dimness of vision, due to a morbid condition of the retina of the eye, and also hypertrophy of the heart, leadine to a fatal apoplexy, are accompaniments of the disease. „ There are several forms of the malady, but their common prominent characteristic is the presence of albumen in the urine, and frequently also the co-existence or dropsy. These associated symptoms, in counection with Kidney Disease were first described in lfc27 by Dr. Richard Bright, an English physician, who flr^t inveitigated them. Sometimes there i» a degeneration of the tissue* of the kidney into fat, thus impairing the excreting powers of the organ so that the urea in not sufficiently separated irom the blood. The flow of the blood, when charged with this urea, is retarded through the minute vessel*, congestion ensuei, and exudation of albumen aDd hbrin ii the remit. The disease is often accompanied by eruptions on the skin, a^ boils, etc., and is frequently associated with enlargement of the heart. The causes of this terribly malady are, indulgence in too much ice-water as a beverage, strong drink, high living, indigestion, exposure to wet and cold, various kinds of levers, malaria, pregnancy, and other bodily derangements, such as a complication of certa'n acute diseases, like erysipelas, dipththcria, and especially scar let fever (of which it is one of the most frequent tnd serious after effects), diseases of bones and other scrofulous affections. The kidneys being the mo.H important excretory organs of the body, their derangement may speedily destroy life. Common-sense treatment of Kidney Disoase of the charactfer referred to necessarily involves removal of the causes, rectification of other secretions and increase in the number of blood-red corpuscles by the administration of Warner s Safe Cure. It is. a specific even in the advanced stages, when the blood has poisoned the nerve centers, restoring the secretion of healthy fluids and rulievinK the congestion of the brain. It speedily arrests the imnammatory action, which is marked by an increased amount of urine. The albumen gradually disappears, the dropsy subside* and the* patient recovers^ There is no standstill in advanced kidney disease; these who are afflicted with it are constantly growing better or worse. How important-, therefore, that this terrible disease be taken in hand in time and treated with a known specific.
