Oles, with his violin, as usual was a great favorite with the jaudience. He was enthusiastically encored after each appearance. His rendition of the "Mocking Bird" with variations and "Nearer, My God, to Thee," were exquisite, and during the rendering of the latter the vast audience seemed to bold its breath, it was so still.—Journal, Sturgis, Michigan. We call attention to the advertisement of the Detroit Weekly Tribune appearing in another column.

This lecture will be delivered in tbe Congregational church on Tuesday evening, Dec. 27. Mr. George R. Wallace ne eds no introduction to the public. He has made for himself a place in the ranks of Lyceum favorites by superior merit. His lectures are full of facts of thrilling interest, lit up with brilliant flashes of humor. He is a born platform orator, speaks without notes, and although still a young man, has lectured to magnificent audiences in different parts of the Union and in Europe. "THE CALL," CHICAGO, SAYS: Mr. Wallace never allows the attention to flag for a moment, hi* sallies of wit not only amuse his hearers, but uever fail to hit the mark at which they are aimed. THE "INTER-OCEAN," CHICAGO: The lecture * * * * * * was a rare intellectual treat. "EVENING NEWS,' Parquette, balcony the Academy of Music overflewing with a sea of humanity drawn tnere by the eloquence of Saginaw's gifted and magnetic orator. "THE SUN," DETROIT: Either Geo. R. Wallace in a powerful hater or else he is an excellent orator. Gesture, tone, expression, all pointed in one of these directions. There will be orchestral music during the evening. Admittance, 25 cts children, 15 cents. SAGINAW: and gallery of were literally i Coming* Again. G. W. Oles, the celebrated vio'inist who visited us a couple of ypars ago, and who captivated all who heard him, will, as announced last week, give a coocert in the M. E. church on Safurday evening, Dec. 17. A great many ot our people would pay dollars in railroad fares and $2 for a ticket to hear some violinist at an opera house who is no equal to Mr. Oles. The p r i ^ of admission has been placed within the reach of all. Children 15 cents, adults 25 cents. A IHaffnificenl Cnrmtwas Nunber. With its heavy burden of superb colored supplements; of mounted pictures; of groups of noted horses; of short stories; of original drawings and illustrations; of prize articles; of photographhs off horsemen andd turf writers; and last but by no means least, beautifully designed coyer in colors, the Christinas number of the American Horse Monthly has arrived at this office. It is one of the most elegant and interesting Holiday papers it has ever been our duty and pleasure to criticise. Crammed *vith supplements and vaiuable features, it almost takes one's breath away on opening its pages. Ten loose mounted photo-tinfs, including Nancy Hanks, Kremlin, Statnonnl, Lobasco, etc., arn first carefully takiin out and admired, and then the large: special picture of celebrated horses holds our attention. It is in size 36x 12 inches, and deserves a handsome frame. This picture will be greatly prized by all lovers of that noble animal, the horse. A large portrait of Budd Doble is also given. Then the Masrazine itself. Its columns contain an especially charming series of illustrated short stories by well known writers, all signed with autographs in facsimile. These stories are good reading fur everyone, ate not purely tales of the turf! but rather tales of the horse. We not ire that every pace contains illustrations and engravings, all most cleverly executed. The Christmas number'with its hundred pages has not a dull line in it. aid indeed it is more of a bound and illustrated volume than a magazine. The subject matter is of interest to all, and even ladies will find mui-h to please them. The nape,r reaches here carefully enclosed in a large envelope, so that the ten handsome supplements arrive uninjured. The price is only twenty-five cents, and orders can he left at this office, or sent direct to the American Horse Monthly Co., Detroit, Michigan. G. \Y. Oles at Chelsea. Chelsea, Mich.. Oct. 25, 1890. The citizens of Cbelsea were favored with a treat, suc^b as but few of them ever enjoyed before by listening to tbe violin concert given by Mr. George W. Oles last evening under the ausp*$ p**f tbe L. A. Society. He is simply a marvel as a violinist, that no words of mine can describe. I did not think it POSSIBLE for any man to perform such difficult feats on any instrument as were rendered by him on bis vioiin. His- audience were at times hushed into almost breathless ailence by the spell he threw over them. I hope that no lover of pure music rendered by a master hand will fail to hear this rising star in the musical world. J. H. MCINTOSH, Pastor, M. E. Church. Dr. Miller, the celebrated Rupture Specialist, of the O. E. Miller Rupture Treatment Co., Detroit, will visit Ann Arbor (Cook House) for one week, beginning Thursday morning, Dec. 22.

A great many were fed at tbe bounteous tables, and many articles were sold from the different* departments. We have not learned what the receipts of the evening were. An Incident of a Battle. Col. C. W. Dean of Dayton, 0., had the peculiar and serious experience of being sunstruek while engaged in battle before Port Hudson, La., June 14, 1S63.

TH K TARIFF 1 . I t is no t m y purpos e to rene w her e th e argumen t in "favor of a protectiv e tariff. Th e resul t of th e reeen t electio n mus t be accepte d as havin g introduce d .i ne w policy. Y^'e mus t assum e tha t th e presen t tariff, constructe d upo n th e lines of protection , is to be repealed , an d tha t ther e is to be substitute d for it a tariff law constructe d solely with referenc e to revenue . 1 recommen d tha t th e whole subject of taril'f revision be left to th e incomin g Con - gress. I t is matte r of regret tha t thi s work mus t be delaye d for a t least thre e months ; for th e threa t of great tariff change s introduce s so muc h uncertaint y tha t an amount , no t easily estimated , of busines s inactio n an d of diminishe d pro - ductio n will necessaril y result . I t is possible also tha t thi s uncertaint y ma y result In decrease d revenue s from custom s duties , for ou r merchant s wUl mak e cautiou s order s for foreign good s in view of t h e prospec t of tariff reduc - tion s an d th e uncertaint y as to when the y will tak e effect. Thos e who have advocate d a protectiv e tariff ca n well afford to have thei r disastrou s forecast s of a chang e of polic y disappointed .

We have ha d in ou r histor y several experience s of tlie contraste d effects of a revenu e an d of a protectiv e tariff; but thi s generatio n lias no t felr them , an d th e experienc e of on e generatio n is not highly instructiv e to th e next .

A treat y providin g for th e arbitratio n of th e disput e between Grea t Britai n an d U Unite d State s as to th e killing of seals in th e Behrin g Sea was conclude d on th e 2Dth of Februar y last. TM B treat y was accomplishe d by an agreemen t prohibitin g pelagic sealing pendin g th e arbitration , and a vigorous effort was mad© durin g thla season to drive out all poach - ing sealers from th e Behrln g Sea. Six naval vessels, thre e revenu e cutter s and one vessel from th e Fluh Commission , all unde r th e comman d of Commande r Kvuns, of th e navy, were sent Int o th e sea, which was systematicall y patrolled . Some seizures were mad e and Jt is believed tha t th e catc h in thy Behrln g Sea by poacher s amounte d to less thu n 600 seals. I t is true , however, tha t in th e Nort h Tactile , while the seal herd s were on thei r way to the passes between th e Aleutian Islands , a very large number , probabl y 35,000, were taken . The existing statute s of th e Unite d State s do not restrai n our cltissens from takin g seals in tho 1'aciilc Ocean , and perhap s should not , unless th e prohibitio n can be extend - ed to th e citizen s of othe r nations . 1 recommen d tha t power be given to th e President , by proclamation , to prohibi t the takin g of seals in the Nort h 1'acitic by America n vessels, in case eithe r as the result of th e niulings of th e tribuna l of arbitration , or otherwise , th e re- Ktmint s can be upplied to the vessels of all countries . RELATION S WITH CANADA . *"l)uring th e past year a suggestion was received throug h tho British Ministe r tha t th e Canadia n Governmen t would like to confer as to the possibility of enlarging, upon term s of mutua l advant - age, th e commercia l exchange s of Can - ada and of th e Unite d States , and a con - ferenc e was held at Washington , with Mr. Ulaln e actin g fur tin s government , and th e British Ministe r at thi s capita l and tnre e member s of the lUiminio u Cabinet actin g as Commissioner s on th e par t of Grea t Britain . Tht.' conferenc e developed ihe fact tha t the Canadia n Govern - men t was only prepare d to olfer to the. Unite d States , in exchang e for th e concessions asked, th e admissio n of natura l products . The statemen t was frankly mad e tha t favored rate s could not be given to the Unite d State s us against th e mothe r country . This admission , which was toreseen , necessaril y terminate d th e conferenc e upon this question . The benelits of an exchang e of natura l product s would be almos t wholly with Ih e people of Canada . The controvers y as to tolls upon tho Wellaud Canal , which was presente d to Congres s at th e last session by special 1ne.ssa.t4e, havin g tailed of adjustment , 1 felt constraine d to exercise tho author - ity conferre d by the act of July 26, 1WS2, and to proclai m a suspension of the free use of St. Mary' s Fall s Cana l to cargoe s in transi t to port s in Canada . The Secretar y of th e Treasur y establishe d such tolls as were though t to be equivalen t to the exaction s unjustly levied upon our commerc e in th e Canadia n canals . If, as we must suppose, ihe politica l relation s of Canad a and tlie dispositio n of tlie Canadia n Governmen t are to remai n unchanged , a somewha t radica l revision of our trad e relation s should , 1 think , be made , ou r relation s must, continu e to be intimate , and they .should be friendly, i regret to say, however, tha t in man y of the controversies , notabl y those as to th e fisheries on th e Atlantic , th e sealing interest s on th e l'aeiiic, and the cana l tolls, our negotiation s with Grea t Britai n have continuousl y been thwarte d or retarde d by unreasonabl e and unfriendl y objectio n and protest s from Canada . In the matte r of the cana l tolls our treat y rights were lin.^rantl y disregarded . It is hardl y too muc h to say tha t the Canadia n 1'aciUc , and othe r railway lines which paralle l our norther n boundary , are sustaine d by commerc e having either , its origin or terminus , or both , in th e Unite d States . Canadia n railroad s compet e with thos e of th e Unite d ; State s for our traflic, and withou t th e restraint s of our interstat e commerc e act . Thei r cars- pass almost withou t detentio n into and out of our territory . Ther e is no dispositio n on th e par t of tho people or Governmen t of th e Unite d State s to interfer e In th e •small'-s t degree with Ihe politica l relation s j of Canada . Thivt questio n is wholly with her own people , it is tim e for us, however, to conside r whether , if the presen t stat e of thing s and tren d of thing s is to be continued , our interchange s upon lines of land transportatio n should not be put upon a different basis, and our entir e independenc e of Canadia n canal s and of the St. Lawrenc e as an outle t to the sea secured i>y th e constructio n of an America n cana l aroun d the Fall s of Niagara , and the openin g of ship communicatio n between the great lakes and one of our own sea oefts. We should -not hesitat e to avail ourselves of our great natura l trad e advantages. We should withdra w the suppor t which is given; to the railroad s and steamshi p lines ,-rTF- ' Canad a by a tratli c tha t properl y belongs to us, and no longer furnish the--earning s which lighten thu otherwis e erushinc r weight of the enor j inon s public subsidies tha t have been given to them . THJ O CHILIA N AFFAIR . Congres s at the last session was kept advised of the progress of the serious, and for a time , threatenin g difference s between th e Unite d State s and Chili. It gives me now great gratiticatio n to repor t tha t th e Chilia n Government , in a most friendly and honorabl e spirit, has ten - dered and paid, as an indemnit y to th e families of the sailors of the Baltimor e who wore killed, and to those who were injure d in th e outbrea k in the City of Valparaiso, th e sum of $7">,00i). This has been accepted , not only as an Indemnit y for a wrong done , but as a most gratifying evidenc e tha t th e Governmen t of Chili lightly appreciate s the dispositio n of thi s governmen t to act In a spirit of the most absolut e fairness nnd friendlines s in our intercours e with tha t brave people . CENTRA L AND SOUT H AMEU1CA . I have endeavore d in every way to assure our sister republic s of Centra l and Sout h America tha t th e Unite d State s Governmen t and Its people have only the most friendly dispositio n toward the m all. We do not covet thei r territory . We have no dispositio n to be. oppressive or exactin g in otir dealings with any of them , even .' the weakest. Our interest s and our hope s for the m all lie in th»-dfroctlo n of stable government s by thei r people and of th e largest developmen t of thei r great com- ' mercla l resources . The mutua l benefits of enlarge d commercia l exchange s and of a mor e familiar and friendly intercours e between our people s we do desire, and in thi s have sought thei r friendly co-opera - tion . I have believed,^' however, while holdin g these sentiment s in th e greatest sincerity , tha t we must insist upon a Just responsibilit y for any injurie s inflicted upon our official representative s or upon I our citizens .

March 21, 1892. In 'view of the fact that the monetary conference is now sitting, and that no conclusion has yet been reached, I withhold any recommendation as to legislation upon this sub- THE ARMY. The report of the Secretary of War brings again to the attention of Congress some Important suggestions as to the reorganization of the infantry and artillery arms of the service, which his predecessors have before urgently presented. Our army is small, but Us organization should all the more be put upon the most approved modern basis. The conditions upon what we have called the "frontier" have heretofore required the maintenance of many small posts, but now the policy of concentration is obviously the right one. The new posts should have the proper strategic relations to the only "frontiers" we now have, those of the sea coasts nnd of our northern and part of our southern boundary. I do not think that any question of advantage to localities or to states should determine the location of the new posts. DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE. The report of the Attorney-General Is by law submitted directly to Congress, but I can not refrain from saying that he has conducted the increasing work of the Department of Justice with great professional skill. He has in several directions secured from the courts decisions giving increased protection to the ofheers of the United States and bringing some classes of crime that escaped local cegnizance and punishment into the tribunals of the United States, where they could be tried with Impartiatty. I recommend that Congress prescribe a uniform credit for good behavior on the part of United States prisoners confined in the various state penitentiaries. I have before expressed my concurrence in the recommendation of the Attorney- General that degrees of murder should be recognized In the federal statutes as they are, I believe, in all the states. These grades nre founded on correct distinctions in crime. Tho recognition of them would enable the courta to exercise some discretion In apportioning punishment, and would greatly relieve the executive of what is coming to be a very heavy burden—the examination of these cases on application for commutation, POSTOFFICE DEPARTMENT. The report of the Postmaster-General shows a most gratifying increase and a most efficient and progressive management of the great business of that department. The remarkable increase in reveticif*>, i^ th? number of postofnees and In tilt wtlct o< mall carriage, furnlihea further evidence of the high atate of prosperity which our people are enjoying, New offices mean new hamlets and town*, new routes mean the extension pi our border settlements, ana Increased revenues mean an active commerce, The Postmaster- General reviews the whole period ot his administration of the office and brings sonie of his statistics down to the month of November last. The poatal revenues have increased during the last year nearly $5,000,000. The deficit for the year end- Ing June 30, 1892, 1H $848,341 less than tha deficiency of the preceding year. The deficiency of the present tiscal year, It is estimated, will be reduced to $1,552,423, which will not only be extinguished during the next fiscal year, but a surplus of nearly $1,000,000 should then be shown. In these calculations the payments to be made under the contracts for ocean mall service have not befltt Included. There have been added 1,590 new mall routes during the year, with a mileage of 8,563 miles, and the total number of new miles of mall trips added during the year is nearly 17,000,000. The number of miles of mull journeys added during the last four yeurs is about 76,000,000, this addition being 21,000,000 of miles more than were in operation in the whole country in 1861. The number of postoftleos has been increased by 2,790 during the year; and during the past four years1 and up to October 29 last, the total Increase in the number of offices has been nearly 9,000. The number, of free-delivery oltjces haa been nearly doubled in the paat four years, and the number of money-order offices more than doubled within that time. OUR MERCHANT MARINE. Kver since our merchant marine was driven from the sea by the rebel cruisers during the war of the rebellion, the United States has been paying an enormous annual tribute to foreign countries in the shape of freight and passage moneyB. Our grain and meats have been taken at our own docks and our large imports their laid down by foreign shipmasters. An increasing torrent of American travel to Europe haa contributed a vast sum annually to the dividends of foreign shipowners. The balance of trade shown by the books of our custom houses has been very largely reduced and In many yeara altogether extinguished by this constant drain. In the year 1892 only 12.3 per cent of our imports were brought in American vessels. These great foreign steamships maintained by our trattic are many of them under contracts with their respective governments by which in time of war they will become a part of their armed naval establishments, i'rolitlng by our commerce in peace, they will become the most formidable destroyers of our commerce In time of war. I have felt and have before expressed the feeling that this condition of things was both intolerable and disgraceful. A wholesome change of policy, and one having in it much promise, as it seems to inc. v as begun by the law of March 3, 1891. Ui.der this law contracts have been made by the Postmaster- General for eleven mail routes. The expenditure Involved by these contracts for the next tlseal year approximates $954,- 123 33. As one of the results already reached, sixteen American steamships, of an aggregate tonnage of 57.40*.) tons, cost-* ing $7,400,000, have been built, or contracted to be built, in American shipyards. The estimated tonnage of all steamships required under existing contracts is 165,- 802, and when the full service required by these contracts is established there will be forty-one mail steamers under the American flag, with the probability of further necessary additions in the Brazilian and Argentine service, 1 I tarnestlv^urge a continuance of the policy ifwnjsw&tad by this le^tslation, and that the appropriations requlnod to meet the obligations of tliXgoveri/ment under the contracts may be nxwAe-'promptly, so that the lines that have entered into these engagements may not be embarrassed. We have had, by reason of connections with the transcontinental railway lines constructed through our own territory, some advantages in the ocean trade of tha Pacific, that tve did not possess on the Atlantic. The construction of the Canadian Pacific Hallway, and the establishment under large subventions from Canada and. England of fast steamship service from Vancouver with Japan and China, seriously/ threaten our shipping Interests In the TSiclflc. This line of English steamers receives, ns is stated by the Commissioner of Navigation, a direct subsidy of $400,000 annually, or $30,7(37 per trip for thirteen voyages, In addition to some further aid from the admiralty in connection with contracts, tinder which the vessels tnay be used for naval purposes. The competing American I'rvcilU1 Mall Line, under the art of March 3, 1S!»1, receives only $6,389 per round trip. No subject, T think, more nearly touches the pride, the power and the prosperity of our country than this of the development of our merchant marino upon the sea. If we could enter Into conference with other competitors, and nil would agree to withhold government aid. we could perhaps take oi\r dmnces with the rest, but our great cnfnpetitors have established and maintained their lines by government subsidies until now they have practically excluded us from participation. In my opinion, no choice Is left to us but to pursue, moderately, at least, the same lines. THE NAVY. The report of the Secretary of the Navy exhibits great progress in the construction of our new navy. "When the present Secretary entered upon his duties, only three modern steel vessels were in commission. The vessels since put in commission, and to be put in commission during the winter, will make a total of nineteen during his administration ot the department. During the current year ten war vessels and three navy tugs have been launched, and during the four yeara twenty-live vessels will have 'been launched. Two other large ships and a torpedo boat are under contract and the work upon them well advanced, and the four monitors are awaiting only the arrival of their armor, which has been unexpectedly delayed, or they would hava been before this in commission. At the beginning of Secretary Tracy's administration several difficult problems remained to be grappled with and solved before the efficiency in action of our ships could be secured. It is believed that as the result of new processes in the construction of armor plate our later ships will be clothed with defensive plates of higher resisting power than are found on any war vessel afloat. We were without torpedoes. Tests have been made to ascertain the relative efficiency of different constructions, a torpedo haa been adopted and the work of construction ia now being carried on successfully. We were without armor-piercing shells, and without a shop Instructed and equipped tor the construction of them. We nre now making what Is believed to be a projectile Buperlor to any before In use. A smokeless powder has been developed and a alow-burning powder for guns of large caliber. A high explosive, capable of use in shells tired from service guns, has been found, and the manufacture of gun cotton has been developed, so that the question of supply is no longer in doubt. The development of n. naval mllltla, which has been organized in eight states and brought into cordial and co-operative relations with the navy, is another important achievement. There are now enlisted in these organizations 1,800 men and they are likely to be greatly extended. I recommend such legislation and appropriations as will encourage and develop thi.s movement. The ships from our navy which will appear in the great naval parade next April in the harbor of New York will be a convincing demonstration to the worl that the United States is again a navi power.

"Such a theory is by no means improbable. But 1 have .not done yet." Bpeakina" thu-, Mr. Ivea dipped his hand into tho tail pocket of his eout and produced therefrom the damaskeened dagger in its uheath of silver mounted uhngreen. "May I ask, sir, whether you have ever seen this article before?" ••Yes, it is my property." gasped the colonel. "But how did you come by it?" "It was found by me in a drawer in Mr. Bos worth1 a dressing-table. " Without more ado he drew tho dagger from Its sheath and held it out for tho colonel to see. The blade was stained with blood. The co.onel shuddered and held up his hands. "Put it away, Ivea for God's sake!" he said. '-What you have just told distresses me even more than the death of Darvill. l e u , to me that boy was as if ho had been a son of my own. Nay—what do I bay? Was!—Is!—for that he is guilty of this awful crime 1 w 11 never believe till I hear the avowal from his own lips. " His features worked strangely, and it was evidently all he could do to control his emot on. He made believe to be busy rubbing: the glasses of h s pince-nez with his handkerchief, but h s hands trembled so that he could scarcely hold them. "Of course. 6 r," resumed Ives, •you understand that I shall have no alternative but to lay all the items of ev dence in ray possess on before the jury, which is fixed to sit at three o'clock." <* •vf course. Ives, I quite understand that. You mast do yo r duly. as we all rnu.^t. But I say. an I said before, that it was not iloden Bosworth'a hand that slew Vivian Darvill." To this the superintendent made no response, and each of the men wont his way. Knna and Mrs. Asplin had been waiting luncheon for the colonel, and he at once joined them, but it was not till the meal was over and tho servants had left the room that ho said a word about his interview with-lves. Then ho told his talo. Knna listened to it with RIIKI oinent nnd incredulity e.jual to his own When lie had done speaking t*he snid t uiotly. but in a tone of supreme conviction: "However strong—in h:s absence—the evidence may seem against Kodon. nothing will make mo behevo that it was his hand winch did tho deed." "Spoken like my own truo-hearted girl," exclaimed tho colonel w,th forvor. "That s exactly what I said to Ives." They talked awhile longer, but none of them was able to suggest any-' thinar which seemed likely to throw the slightest ray of light on the mystery. Then tho colonel was sent for by the coroner. Ho was gone a couple of hours, and when he camo back the ladies at once law by his face that the news he brought was the reverse of good. Ho sat down without speaking, and for a while tho Bilence remained unbroken. Then the colonel said—speaking with a quaver in his voice liko that of a very old man—"They havo brought in a verdict of wilfuL murder against him." There was no need to ask who was meant by him. Then came another space of sftenco; then I nna rose r.nd crossed tho room. and put her arms around the colonel's ne;-k and kissed him. "For all t h s t uncle," she said, "you and 1 believe as firmly in his innoceneo as ever." "That wo do, girl; but I'm afraid we are tho only two people who can Bay so." c* "Wherever .Roden may jjbe. " said Knna, "ho will be nearly euro to see a newspaper, either in tbo course of to-morrow or the day after —I mean, of course a newspaper containing tho particulars of this shocking atfair. As 6oon as ho rends tha ac ount, I feol lure that he will return with all speed and clear up the mystery, w^iioh, after •ill will doubtless prove capable of a very simple explanation." •That's just what I ana living in hope of." returned tho colopel. "What 1 said to my&olf was—'Whon the lad finds out what a coil of trouble he's got himself into, he'll come back as fast as steiim can bring him, and face the charge like a man.1 But—oh dear! oh dear:—what a change for a few hours to bring! It seems hard to believe that no longer ago than yesterday evening wo were all as happy as sandboys. Darvill was full of his tiger stories and But I can't boar to think of i t " He took a turn or two from end to end of the room. "After all" he resumed, "when out oomet to »*Ta«ider the case without prejudice, however positive we three may feel In our own minds aa to the iirhocence, I fall to see how the jury could have brought ia any other verdict than the oae they unanimously agreed upon. Although the evidence is wholly circumstantial one cannot deny that it id very btrong as far us It jfoes; in addition to which thero is another point to ba borne in mind—that at present there- is not a tittle of evidence which points in any other direction. Of course, there ia tho total absence of motive to be taken into consideration, and should the case ever come to trial, that fact will doubtlesa carry its lull weight both with judge and jury." "Come to a triali* Oh. uncle!" exclaimed Knna. "But it will n«ver do that As 1 Baid before, as soon us Koden reads the account in the papers, he will cotiio fprward aud exhonorato himself." •With all ray heart do I hope so; but I must confess, my dear, that I am not so sanguine on the poini aa I was a couple of hours ago. Is there not, in fact, just a possibility that Bosworth may have done the deed in a moment of ungovernable passion? Might he not have gone to the smoking- room for some purpo.so at present unexplained -might not the two men have quarreled—might not Darvill have insulted the other, and thereby have so excited him that he lost all control over himself? In that case it is not difficult to imagine how tho catastrophe may havo been broughi about." At this juncture the colonel was called away. His last words had struck a chill to Enn;:V heart In the course of the following afternoon the Kev. Eusebius Darvill, of Glasshope Rectory. Lincolnshire, arrived at the Croft. In accordance with her promise to the colonel Mrs. Darvill had communicated with him, and his appearance was thg result He seemed altogether a different type? of man from his brother, and no one, unaware of the fact would have guessed the relationship between thefo. The rector stayed over night at ihe Croft In the course of next day Captain Darvill's body, was forwarded by railway to (ilasshope for interment CHAPTER IX. ' -Wanted."1 When Roden i.o-worth quitted Sandyeroft so precipitately on the night of the murder ho made his way to Scoo'ey station, tho distance by road being a good four miles, but by taking a short cut through the fields ho waved about three-quarters of a mile. At Scooley he caught a fast train which landed him in l.onuon soon a.ter midnight where he secured a bod at tho (irent Northern hotel. He was iu no humor next (Jay to go and hunt up any of tho friends of his ptuilcnt days several of whom were settled i n ) on:lon. Ho rumhied aimlessly about the streets, waiting impatiently for tho issue of tbo evening papers. None of the earlier editions had got hold of tho news, but about six o'clock ho f< uud a short p;ii*v graph in tho (.lobe.

"Hut wo can soon put that to rights," he said to himself. "I will take the first train back after breakfast, and by noon tho Sherrisford coroner will have h;id proved to him the necessity for a reversal of the verdict of his twelve good men and true." With that he ordered breakfast at once. Then, while wa;ting for the moal to bo served, it occurred to him to ask himself tho nature of the story, it would bo incumbent on him to tell %nen ho got back to Sandy croft To clear Uimself he must perforce tell truth, and telling the truth meant iMrlx&ination of Ivor Penleath— meant revealing to the world the scene of which he had'been a witness from the roof of the tower. Mo other issue was open to him. The verdict of the jury would be reversed in BO far that Ivor's name- would be substituted for his. This was a contingency which in the first heat of his anxiety to exonerate himself he had cot foreseen, and now It struck him with all the force of aa unlooked-for revelation, and tilled him with blank dismay. He could save himself, but only at Ivor's expense, and how was it possible he should do that? Ivor was his friend; Ivor was tho brother of the woman he loved; Ivor was the nephew of tho man to whom ho was indebted for a thousand benefits. No, ho could not do i t It was a question which admitted of no argument time as it should suit come forward of his own confess to his share in I'util such Pen)eath to accord and that dark n ght's work, he, Roden Bosworth, must continue to stand condemned as a murderer in the eyes of the worUl He ate and even enjoyed bis breakfast i or the time being he was in that mood of exaltation which sometimes comes to people who havo bargained and settled w.th their souls for a great sacrifice. Something of earth's grossness seemed purged from him; he breathed a more subl matea atmosphere. But before long tno commonplace, that inexorable taskmaster to whom we all perforce bow the neck, claimed Roden and brought him back to a more mundane frame of mind. There were several points to consider and decide upon. He had no desire to find himself in the clutches of the police, and he was determined to keep out of them as long as might ba. Doubtless in the course of a few hours—if, indeed, it had not been done alread •—a detailed description of his personal appearance would be sent to every police center and port in the kingdom; conse uently it behooved him to be up and doing without delay. Ten minute?' cogitation decided him as to his immediate course of action. The first thing he did was to call for his bill and pay i t his next to take his sketchbook and knapsack and deposit them in /the cloak-room at the station. After/ that he went in search of a barbej>« shop, which he presently foundTwhere ho had his^ rather long haiv cropped aa close as if he bad just been passed into the army. Before leaving the shop be bought a pair of scissors. His next proceeding was to take a ticket on the underground railway from King's Cross to Portland Road. and. whilo in the tunnel, to clip his beard and mustache as short as possib a At Portland Koud ho left the train an 1 found another barber's shop, from which ho emerged a quarter of an hour later • perfectly clean shaven. rl hence a cab took him to a certain • emporium" as to which ho had some previous knowledges whore alatl. thing in tbo way of secondclothing is obtainable at a few minutes1 notice." Horo lie proeurod everything needful to allow of his prestMi ing himself to the word in the guise of a spick and span young curato. He made tho requisite change on the spot obtaining a leather bag in whi'h to tako away the c;othos he had discarded. That bag and its contents ho deposited half an hour later in tho cloak-room at Waterloo staUou.

A very touch.ng but painful inci dent illustrating the depth of ignorance an i the wasted powers of selfabnegation which exist among Japanese women has .ust been brought to light The story runs that a florist named 'T'oyosh.m;i Sakiehi, fifty years of age was attacked b ; .some disease of the br.tin. and had been confinel to his bed for a long time. Ilia daughter Yono, aged sixteen, who was engaged as a servant in the houso of a railij tary o.i!cer, w;w deeply grieved by tho illness of he.1 father and his apparently hopele-a condition. iSho went barefooted day by day to bokakuji letnplo to pray, but all to no purpose. Her father continued as bad as before. At last one night an o;d. man with snow-white hair appeared to her and told her that if she wished her father to get well she must givo nun a cupful of blood from a girl sixteen years of ace. On awaking she decided sho would carry out the old man's instructions. She procure! a eword from her master's house and went homo, telling her parents about her dream, and that >he intended to.give her father a cup of her blood. Her father, horrified at his daughter's conduct, took the sword from , her and remonstrated with her. b'ho returned to her work, but on the same night she cut her left arm in two places and carried tho cup of blood to her father, imploring to him drink it. The horrified parents sent for a doctor and had her wounds dressed, and did their best to drive away her superstitious beliefs. This is of course only an exaggerated instance of the superstition and ignorance which lead to all the other sacrifices made by women for their parent* in Japan.

Cook of Chicago, the widely-; known publisher of Sunday-school literature, was born in liast Worcester, New York, in lfcoO, a son of E. S. Cook, a Methodist minister, and from a child'a member of the church and Sunday-school. H© began worki n g in the Sunday- / school in Chicago at the age of seventeen, teaching in his own church school and at the same time in one, DAVID C. coon. and much of tno time tv. o, mission schools meeting1 at different hours. In 1871, after the great fire, he left home and with throe other -young men, whom h^ persuaded to join him, rented rooms in one of the. poorest and roughest parts of the burnt district of North Chicago, and gave himself to relief and mission work. Here he started "Everybody's Mission," in a German beer-hail and theater, afterwards removed to a building1 of ita i w n . This mission, with an attendance of 330 to 450, made tip of some of the worst elements, he sustained for five years without financial aid from any church or society. H* has since organized and superintendent Korth Avenue Mission, Lake View Mission and Lake View Union Schools in Chicago, and Grace Sunday School, Elgin, besides several smaller enterprises, His first publication* were prepared only for his own schools; then, to cheapen expense, h© solicited orders from others. This was the beginning of a wonderful growth and popularity, whirtb, in sixteen years, haa mad* h i t aaaM a household word. a •;i a h ii m i THUKSDAY, DEC. 15, 1892 The movement began in Congress at the last session to bring about the abrogation of the treaty with Great Britian prohibiting y/ar ships on the great lakes has been revived and is now exciting much interest. Senator Frye's bill for a suspension of all privileges now enjoyed by Canadian commerce is also much talked about. A man came into the sanctum with a fence rail to annihilate the editor for, aiy) alleged grievance. The lattevypio was whittling, looked up ancrsaid: "My fiiend, did you ever consider that even if you did thrash me, you could not stop the publication of this paper, and it would only be the worse for you, because either myself or my successor would be bound to get even with you. You may lick the editor to your heart's content, but the newspaper goes on forever." And instead of thrashing the editor the man left the fence rail as part payment for his subscription. It is reassuring to know that an American naval vessel is on its way from San Francisco to Samoa to look out for American interests there. The Samoans are in turmoil, and England ami Geimnny will have ships there also, for the ostensible purpose of restoring order. Experience has proved a hundred times that these two nations will bear a great deal of watching under such circumstances. "We can rost content that while the present lidniinistrnfion is in power our interests in Samoa or in any other quarter of the globe will be maintained with the same firm dignit v which clinracteriztd its dealings with Chile.* The real usefulness of that extraordinary excrescence on the side of the labor question, the "walking delgate," has just been disclosed in a New York Police Court, A man named Schaefer, who belonged to the German house painter's union, was behind £25 in his dues, ami had to leave the union. A "walking delegate" however, named Sanderman demanded that Schnefer should be dismissed it' ho did not pay up and come back to the union, and notwithstanding that the man was a good workman enjoying his employer's esteem, he was dismissed under threats that a strike would be ordered. This is a fine side light upon the independence of labor. Mr. Spurgeon's activities were not confined to preaching. Of nil the multiform operations of his church he was the mainspring. The pastors' college, founded by him, has educated for the ministry 800 young men. The Stockwell orphanage, which he established has cared for 14.00 children. The Colportage association, of the tabernacle, has been a distributor of good and pure literature to hi.ndmls of thousands. His "book fund" has supplied to needy ministers, 115,000 volumes free of cost. These are only a few of the beneficent agencies due to his insphvC tion, and carried under his guidance. The death of such a man is a loss to Christianity and to the world.—Mail and Express. Bucklen's Arnica Salve.

THE UiCNEHAL LAND OFFICE. The report of the secretary shows a very gratifying state of facts as to the condition of the general land otiioe. The work of Issuing agricultural patents, which seemed to be hopelessly in arrears when the present secretary undertook the duties of his office, has been so expedited that the bureau is now upon current business. The relief afforded to honest and worthy settlers on the public lands, by giving to them an assured title to their entries, has been of incalculable benellt In developing the new states and the terany other number, but when applied ( r l T ' ^ o u r t o f p r i v a t l a m l c l a l m 8 > estabto a series of wives it is fraught with disaster. IK an English court lately, in the ease of a bicycle stolen from a wayside inn, Judge Lushington said that the Innkeeper was bound to take care of the goods of travelers, and that ••goods" included bicycles.

A BUST exchange pauses in its career to consign Richard Wagner to oblivion. This is generous, indeed. Richard Wagner would never have taken the trouble to do as much for the busy exchange. The shade of the composer can be imagined looking down on the editorial genius and saying, "What! A^ain?" AN Indian in Cheyenne, convicted of homicide, took a piece of broken glass and therewith jabbed fatal leaks in hU jugular. This shows the disadvantage of being an Indian. A white man under the circumstances would have moved for a new trial and lived cheerfully on, fearful of nothing1 raoro' disastrous than the approach of old IT was a lawyer, and one of the foremost in his profession, who believed that the world would be better off if no laws existed to compel people to pay thei|r debts. Not much credit in lotne cases would be given under such ft rule; but in the cases where credit would be refused it probably does neither the creditor nor the borrower any good. JOHN C. TIPTOX of West Virginia had Just finished delivering a sermon when tinregenerate officers with warrants arrested him for stealing mules. The erstwhile attentive flojk immediately scattered for their several homes, impelled lees, it is believed, by the shooting around the pu.pit, than by the i fact that they had left their barndoors j unlocked, and had some mules themselves. MENTAL culture is not incompatible with physical culture. The youth who pores day and nig"hfc over his books may instruct his muscles at the same time. The use which he makes of his Intellect gives him intuitive knowledge of the use which he may make of his thews and sinews. In a gam© •where power must combine with agility and both, be guided with unerring skill, he who has command of all his mental resources as well as of all his physical resources will be superior to the man of possibly greater strength, but less cunning. The athletic games of Greece were the counterparts of all that is illustrated in its literature. Tin: literature of to-day is greatly indebted to the California pioneer of •£9, who has given the novelist and humorist a new and picturesque figure in a novel setting, and has enlarged the vocabulary of the English language with many tingling words and phrases. lie is a sorry do?, as we know him in the books; unkent, unprincipled, intemperate, thriftless, his abundant rices set oft by an unexpected rirtue or two; but he has been rarely good "material," and has poured gold into the purses of Bret Harte, Mark Twarn and their hosts of followers. So well educated has the world become in regard to him that the merest schoolboy in the wilds of New England, and the shyest maiden in Old England, if called upon to describe tfiis gentleman, would unhesitatingly define him as a red-shir ted, unshaven abomination, rery amusing to read about, but undoubtedly a rery shocking person to come in contact with. llshed by Congress for the jiruinotion of this policy of speedily settling contested land titles, 1s making* satisfactory progress In its work. INDIAN AFFAIRS. The work of the Indian .Bureau. In the pxecutlon of the policy of recent legislation, has been largely directed to two chief purposes: First, the allotment of lands in severalty to the Indians and the cession to the United States of the surplus lands, and, secondly, to the work of educating the Indiana for their own protection in closer contact with the white man, and for the intelligent exercise of his new citizenship. Allotments have been made and patents issued to 5,91)0 Indians under the present secretary and commissioner, and 7,600 additional allotments have been made for which patents are now in process of preparation. The school attendance of Indian children has been increased during that time over 13 per cent, the enrollment for 1892 being nearly 20,- 000. A uniform system of school textbooks and of study has been adopted, and the work in these national schools brought as near as may be to the basis of the tree common schools of the states. These schools can be transferred and merged into the common school systems of the states when the Indian has fully assumed his new relation to the organized civil community in which he resides, and the new states are able to assume the burden. I have several times been called upon to remove Indian agents appointed by me, and have done so promptly upon every sustained complaint of unritnrss or misconduct. I believe, however, that the Indian service at the agencies has been improved and is now administered on the whole with a degree of efficiency. If any legislation is possible by which the selection of Indian agents can bo wnouy removed from all partisan suggestions or considerations, I am sure it would be a great relief to the executive and a great benefit to the service. l'KNSIUNS. The report of tlio Conimlssionor of Pensions, tip which extended notice is given by the Secretary of the Interior in his report, win attract great attention. Judged by the aggregate, amount of work done, the last year has been the greatest In trie hlptory of th»' otlice. I believe that the organization <>f the ojneo is ^ft?< 1 <•?>t ami that the w<nk has been done with fidelity. Tiie passaue of what Is known ;is the disability bill has, as was foreseen, very largely increased th>' annual disbursements to the disabled veterans of the civil war. The estimate .fur this fiscal year was $M4,!Kifi,0W, and that .'imount was'appropriated. A delieifiiey amounting to $10,or>S,Ulil must be provided for at this session. The estimate for pensions for the 1l.se.al year ending June 30, lSUt, is $li>r>AHii),- 000. The Commissioner of Tensions believes that, if the present legislation and methods are mainiaitn-d and further additions to tho pension laws are not made, the maximum evpenditure for pensions will be rench"d .Tune ;!0. 1SM, and will be nt the highest point, $1SS,000,000 per annum, DEPARTMENT OF AC.RICTLTUKH. The report of the Secretary of Agriculture contains, not only a most Interesting statement of the progressive and valuable work done under tho administration of Secretary Husk, but many suggestions for the enlarged usefulness of this important department. In the successful effort to break down the restrictions to the free introduction of our meat products in the countries of Europe, the Secretary has been untiring from tho first, stimulating and aiding all other government oilicers, at home and abroad, whose official duties enabled them to participate in the work. The total trade in hog products with Eurore in May, 1X92, amounted to 82,000,000 pounds, against -lt;,900,0(Mt in the same month of li'jl; in June, 1SU2, the exports aggregated &r>,7O0,o00 pounds, against 46,!i00,0mi pounds in the same month of the previous year; in July there was an increase of 41 per cent, and in August of Tw per cent over the corresponding months of l&SU. Over 40,iif.iO,ixxi pounds of inspected pork have been exported since the law was put into operation. The iJepartmrnt of Agriculture, has labored with great energy and faithfulness to extirpate this disease; and on the -'6th day of September last a public announcement was made by the secretary that tiic disease no longer existed anywhere within the United States, lie is entirely satisfied, after the most svarrhing inquiry, that this statement was justified, and 'that by a continuance of the inspection anil quarantine now required of cattle brought into this country th" disease i an Vie prevented from /main getting any fool tiold. The value to tho cattle industry of tho Tnited .States df this achievement ean haniiy be estimated. Agricultural products constituted 7S.1 pet* cent of our unprecedented exports* lor the tiscal year, which closed June :;<), IS!)-, the. total exports being $1,u.'.o,;.',•>.,K;<J, and the value of the agricultural products, $7H$,717,rt7fi, which exceeds by mure ihan $ir>i).tH)O,i,MLi the shipments of agricultural products in any previous year. An mteiestiji^ and a promising work for the benefit of the American farmer has bff-r begun through agents of the Agricultural Department in Europe, and consists in efforts fo introduce, the various products of Indian corn as articles of human food. The high price of rye oftVml a favorable opportunity for tin* experiment In (icrmany in combining corn meal with rye to produce a cheap bread. A fair degree of success has been attained, and some mills for grinding corn for food have been introduced. The secretary is of the opinion that this new use of the products of corn has' already stimulated exportations, and that if diligently prosecuted, large, and important markets can presently bo opened for this great American product. CHOLERA. AND QUARANTINE. The subject of quarantine regulations, inspection and control wan brought suddenly to my attention by the arrival at our ports in August last of vessels Inffctf'd with rholern. Cjuarantine regulations should be uniform at all our ports. I'n.lcr tlio Constitution they are plainly within tho exclusive federal jurisdiction when and so far as Congress shall, legislate. In my opinion the whole subject should be taken Into national control, and adequate power given to the executive to protect people against plague Invasions. On the 1st of September last I approved regulations establishing a twenfy-'lav quarantine for all vessels bringing '....nl- 9 grants from foreign ports. This order will be continued in force. Some loss and Buffering have resulted to ptuusengers, but a due cure for the homes of our people justifies in such cases the utmost precaution. There la danger that with the coming of spring cholera will again appear, and a liberal appropriation should be made at this session to enable our quarantine and port oiticers to exclude the deadly plague. But the most careful and stringent quarantine regulations may not be Humcient absolutely to exclude the disease. We are peculiarly subject m our great ports to the spread of Infectious diseases by reason of tho fact that unrestricted immigration brings to us out of European cities, in the overcrowded steerages of great steamships, a large number of persons whose surroundings make them the easy victims of the plague. This consideration, as well as those affecting tho political, moral and industrial interests of our country, lead me to renew the suggestion that admission to our country and to the high privileges of its citizenship should be more restricted and more careful. We have, I think, a right, and owe a duty to our own people, and especially to our working people, not only to keep out the vicious, the ignorant, the civil disturber, the pauper and the contract liborer, but to check the too great flow :f Immigration now coming by further limitations. INTERNATIONAL COPYRIGHT. International copyright has been extended to Italy by proclamation in conformity with the act of March 3, lsyi, upon assurance being given that Italian law permits to citizens of the United States the benefit of copyright on substantially the same basis as to subjects of Italy. By a special convention, proclaimed January 15, 1S'J2, reciprocal provisions of copyright have been applied between the United States and Germany. Negotiations are in progress with other countries to the same end. PROTECTION OF RAILROAD EMPLOYES. In renewing the recommendation which I have made \n three preceding annual messages that Congress should legislate for the protection of railroad employes against the dangers incident to the old and inadequate methods of braking and coupling, which are still in use upon freight business, I do so with hope that this Congress may take action on the subject. Statistics furnished by the Inter- State Commerce Commission show that during the year ending June 30. 1891, thero were forty-seven different styles of car couplers reported to be in use and that during the same period there were B.titJO employes killed, and 2G.1W injured. Nearly 10 per cent of the deaths occurred In the coupling and uncoupling of cars and over Ht> per cent of the injuries had the same origin. THE CIVIL SERVICE. The Civil Service Commission ask for an increased appropriation for needed clerical assistance, which I think should be given. I extended the classilied service March 1, 1S92, to include physicians, superintendents, assistant superintendents, school teachers and matrons in the Indian service, and have had under con- . sideration the subject of some further extensions, but have not as yet fully determined the lines upon which extensions can most properly and usefully be made. EI.KCT1ON METHODS. I have, In each of the three annual messages which ii has been my duty to submit to dumress, called attention to the evils and dangers connected with our election methods ami practices as they are related lo^he choice of otlicers of the national government. In my last annual message 1 endeavored to Invoke serious attention to the evils of unfair apportionments for Congress. I cannot close this message without again calling attention to Uiesu gravo and threatening evils. I had hoped that it was possibly to secure a non-pan isan inquiry by means of a commit ion into evils, the existence of which is known to all, and that out of this might grow legislation from which all thought nt partisan advantage should be eliminated and only the higher thought appear of maintaining the freedom and purity of tin- baJlot, and the equality ol tlie elector, without the guaranty ol which the government could never navi? been formed, and without the continuance of which it eaunoL continue to exist in peace ami prosperity. It Is time t"hat mutual charges of unfairness ami fraud between the great parties should cease and that the sincerity of those who profess a desire for pure and honest elections should be brought to tho test ot their willingness to free our legislation find.our election methods from everything that tends to impair the publio'eontidoncij In tin; announced result. The necessity for an inquiry and for legislation by Con. gre.ss upon this subject is emphasized by the fact that the tendency of the legislation in some slates in recent years has in .some important particulars been away from and not toward tree and fail elections and equal apportionments, CONi;i,i SIOX. This exhibit of the work of the pxocutlve departments is submitted to Congress and to the public in tho hope that there will bo found in it a due sense of responsibility and an earnest purpose, to maintain tho national honor and to promote tho happiness and prosperity of all our people. .-\nd this brief exhibit of th* growth am give us a increase or decadence that new legislatlv« policies may bring to us. There is nc reason why the national influence, powot and prosperity should not observe the same rates of Increase that have characterized the past thirty years. Wo carrj the great impulse and increase of these years into the future. Tliere is no reason why in many lines of production w< .should not surpass all other nations as we have already clone in some.

The association had been organized six years ago, with the approval of everybody "who knew anything about its object, but he now feared that it was drifting into the quicksands of sentimentalism. Prison managers, he thought, were inclined to be indifferent to anything non-political, the ascendency of their party in power outranking all other •considerations. Mr. Nicholson, in closing, said that *'after six years of faithful effort to bring all the wardens of the United States into the association and secure their active co-operation in furthering its work, I must confess that we have failed. 1 deeply regret the failure. I attach no blame to anyone except myself; I am forced to the conclusion' that someone more magnetic than myself should take the helm." Dangerous Insane Convicts.

The country folk mod* the sign of the crop an they parsed by and murmured, 1 There its 1 he Accursed one's cast>«!" About the walls that nurrouiided the grounds was a brier hedge, which ro one dared to cross. The Kervantn passed each other by like shadows, afraid to •peak above a whisper. No oue dared to add res* the master. Only the young Count Robert found favor in the eyes of the lord of the manor, the old Duke de K«rberzoff, his uncle. At the time when this story begins Robert was seated at the old man's feet. He was seated in the great ducal chair; his face was livid, his eyes gleaming and his countenance distorted with fear. He was listening intently; one would hare said that he was the ffhost of terror. "My dear Lord, is your »uffering worse?" asked Robert, gently. The Duke shuddered; he was still listening intently. It was Christmas night. "Noel! Noel!" sang the peasants' voices. *'Noel ! Noel!" rang out the chimes. Then the old Duke rose up like o •pectre. "Listen, Robert!" he said. "Listen!" The old man had not spoken for twenty years. His sepulchral voice echoed through the great hall and the ancient armor hanging on the walls gave forth a metallic sound. The young Count was petrified with friarht "Twenty years ago I had a son; he vras handsome, brave and generous. He loved a young peasant girl and wished to marry her, but I refused my consent—J could not countenance such an outrage. My son pleaded with me, but I was inflexible; my escutcheon would have been eternally disgraced. I was wrong, my boy, I was wrong! Never give way to pride! It is a mortal •in!" Sobs choked the old Duke's utterance, but he continued: ! "The maiden was beautiful and virtuous. I offered her money; she fused i t Then I had her carried and imprisoned in the tower of jaattif Several icon tha reoff the my son was faithful to his word, I to my pride. I decided to kill the maiden, so 1 sent word to her secretly to escape at the first opportunity. A silken ladder was given to her, and she was carefully instructed as to its use and how to fasten it to the window. She prepared for flight. Then I arranged an infamous trap for her. Listen,Robert! listen! I had the stones of the window sill loosened, so that it would give way beneath her weight, carrying the unfortunate jrirl with it as it fell, and she would be clashed to pieces upon the marble Hoor of the courtyard below. "It was Christinas! That night 1 fell asleep in the fear of God. Then I was transported to an immensity of jeteuds. Innumerable archeA f611owed each other in never ending succession. | Beneath these arches small golden lamps were swinging gently to and fro, so numerous that it would have taken years to count them. Some burst suddenly into flame, others were as suddenly extinguished. Some burned with a fierce light, others flickered for a long time before they died out completely, "Kach one of these lamps was guarded by an angel. All the new lamps were tended by fair white angels with faces of unspeakable beauty; by others stood black angels, ugly and evil looking, and those seemed to await) with impatience the moment when the flame should be finally extinguished. " 'What is all this?' F asked my guide. " 'These lamps are the souls of men,' he replied. 'The ones which start suddenly into flame are the souls of newborn infants, and spotless angels guard them. Here are the souls of those who have reached the time of life when they can think for themselves, and the Spirit of Evil and the Spirit of Good dispute their possession. Those lamps which are flickering and fading out are the souls of the dying. Seel' he cried, pointing out several flames which were on the point of extinction, 'seel at the supreme moment the soul almost always turns to the Spirit of Good!1 "Then I asked him to show m% my own lamp. " 'Come!1 said the strange being who conducted me. "Leading me on through innumerable arches, we went on and on for a long time. Then stopping suddenly, 'See!' he said. 'Rehold thy soul!' 1 was petrified with terror. One single drop of oil remained in my lamp, and over it hovered an angel with coal MaoV \»<ncrs. who blew upon the flame to make it burn out more quickly. I wus in mortal fear, and I was a coward; yes, I was a coward," said the Duke, trembling violently. "Listen, Robert, listen! Beside my lamp burned another with a steady and brilliant flame: a white-winged angel watched over the golden vessel. The Spirit of Eril came aud whispered in my ear." The old Dukd ceased. It seemed as if he, heard the spirit's voice at that moment. His eyes were bloodshot, his hair stood on end withfright and his teeth chattered. He continued, in a hoarse voice: "The white-winged angel looked at me sadly, but the black kept whispering in my ear. I saw nothing; I would see nothing. From the black angel's wing I plucked a feather, and dipping it into the brilliant lamp I took the oil out drop by drop and Jet it fall into ray own. My flame became brilliant and red as blood; the other grew paler, but retained t its starry brightness, Only one drop of oil remained; and the white angel stretched forth his wing to stop me, but another with wings gleaming lik'e mother of pearl and bearing a golden sword came to us. 'Let the man do his will! God will judge him!1 he said. Then I took the last drop of oil. "Then I was afraid. 'Whose lamp is this?' I asked, pointing to the flame which was just on the point of going out. And the voice replied, 'It is the soul of thy beloved son.' At that moment the flame went out. The white angel took the soul in its wings and flew away with a cry of grief, but the Spirit of Evil responded with aloud cry of triumph "I awokfc frozen stiff with horror. Two corpses were stretched out upon the floor of my room crushed almost out of human shape My aon, notified by his betrothed, had wished to protect her in her flight, and the dreadful trap which I had set for her had killed them both. It was Christmas—twenty years ago!" The old man fell back in his chair, the tears streaming down his face. "Stop!" he said to the negro who was tending the precious lamp. "Feed the flame no more! I have made my confession, now I can die—but can God find pardon for me?" At that moment the castle bell rang loudly and the chants of the church were heard. The doors of the great hall swung open. Through them was seen the chapel of the old manor blazing with lights, and th» Shild Jesus on His bed of straw wem?>l resplendent with glory and pardon. The old Duke fell on his knees before the Infant God. "Man!" said the voice of the priest, "Christ was born, suffered, died to redeem the sins of men. Thou hast sinned, thou hast suffered, thou hast repented—God pardons thee! May thy soul depart in peace!" Then the old man looked at the golden lamp and saw above it an angel with snow white wings, and he recognized- him as the guardian of the brilliant lamp. The angel smiled on him sweetly, and taking up the flickering light flew off toward heaven. The Dufci Kerberzoff was dead NATURAL WOSFUL SK5PTIC HA3 EXPERIENCE.

It is simply impossible; and yet even more curious things are told of in scriptural history, you know. riuramer was naturally skeptical. He had 'fat, rod cheeks and a little mouth that continually looked as if it wanted to whistle, and fat hands and short, fat legu, and a confiding way that made him many friendtt; and then he had a habit of believing in himself and his >own shrewdness that made everybody laugh. "They can't fool me," he often remarked,snapping his fingers as if in contempt of all efforts to that end; and whenever he said it, the words created a broad smile all around the board, as if the idea of fooling Plummer was the height and depth of all absurdity. Well, the manifestations began without the aid of the slightest electricity. There was no sitting around a pine table and singing psalms, as Plummer remarked afterward, The conditions were perfected without any apparent premeditation, and the boys and girls over there came and went just as if they belonged here and were about to resume where they left off when they passed out. Plummer was first astonished by being stopped at the junction of the streets. It wan about & o'clock at nightof the 24th of December.and there was a full head of gas in the street lamp on the corner. A man with bloodred eyes, dressed in a ragged overcoat and aping hat, the front of the rim of which was torn BO as to rest on his nose, leaving the eyes conspicuous in the vacancy thereby created remarked in a hoarse, low voice: "I'm Jones— P. Q. Jones. Know me? Died in '64. 'Member that $5 I loaned you? Want HI" "I had an indistinct remembrance of borrowing 85 of somebody of that name," said Plummer afterward, "and of his dying before I had a chance to return the money. Now I don't know that this was the Jones in question, but if not, how Ehould he have known of the transaction? Well, I was glad to get tfie matter oft iny mind, and I handed out $5. I intended to ask for a~i*eceipt in full, but as I looked the man disappeared. He paused before a building that was lighted from top to bottom, and every light in which appeared to be dancing a jig without regard to rhyme, time, or propriety of movement. This might have been partly a result^ however, of the whirling snow, it having come on to storm in good, old-fashioned Christmas style. Pausing to put a handful of silver into the outstretched palm of an old woman who said she was once known as Lucretia Borgia, and casually remarking to her that he hoped shd had stopped the poisoning business, Plummer entered the building, and nearly ran against a man of rather small stature, with a prominent not* past in th« Roman style, lor^g graj hair Vmshed bveU of Mi •ar»anr1 ticft wittr. a ribboa, aad remarkably keen, briC'i*t eyes. ltLi I'm not crazy," said Plummer, hall to himself, "that's th« fho*t of Aaron Uurr." "Your servant, sir," said the man to I'lummer, with a courtly bow. I'luinuier could thiuk of nothing a p 1 pvopriute to nay, so he blurted out: "How'm Aleck?" "Mr. Hamilton and 1 arranged our difficulty hatisfaetorily a long time ago, sir," bai<t the man, with gloomy diguity. "That is too old a topic to discuss now," and he di&apputired as if he had been fchot up some invisible chimney. Just how Plummer got into the long dining-hall of the place he can not remember. It seems to him that he was pushed one way aud pulled another, and he in confident that homebody kicked his shins—he carried th« very bark on them a long time. He reoolle<: ts that he suddenly found himself on the floor, having- finally been thrown there with great velocity. As he went down there were a thousand shining lights in his eves, and there was the noise of clinking glasses nnd merry laughter. About the table were as many as a huudied gentlemen and ladies, clad in as many kinds of dress, running back to the modes of the middle and further ages. There was a Mrs. Cleopatra, who was not a^ tired to any great extent, clinking glasses with a gentleman who appeared to bear a close resembience to Julius Ceasar and pointing a coquettish finger at Mr. Antony. There was Queen Elizabeth, with a ruilie around her neck so large that it seemed as if it ought to choke her, exchanging exclamations of wonder with Walter Raleigh with respect to the Brooklyn bridge, whiel King John tossed merry jests to Anuie Laurie and got them back again, Mary Queen of Scotts discussed the war tariif with Lord Darnley, and William Shakespeare put up his hands with Francis Bacon in a violent argument as to Mr. Darwin's orig-ion of man. Plummer had apparently risen to a sitting posture about this time and was drinking it all in with his eyes and wishing the same with respect to his eager mouth, when there advanced a marvelously pretty lady who announced herself as Hagarin the wilderness, and immediately introduced a lady with a water-vessel on her shapely head as Rachel at the well. "In good faith," said Plummer gallantly, "you carry your years right royally. You must be—why, good gracious!" exclaimed Plummer, as he hastily indulged in mathematics, "you must be so old that you can't count it, and . here you are with the down and $olor of the peach on your your cheeks, and with eyes that sparkle and lips that lift my soul to unutterable yearning. By heavens! it is good to be here. And how are Uncle Abraham and litle Ishuiael?" "We may not dwell," said Rachel at the well; and thereupon Hagar in the wilderness spoke up business-like, but with a winning smile: "'We are appointed a committee of two to bear to you the compliments of the Queen of *?heba, and conduct you to her Majesty's side. Shall we have that honor?" "You bet!" exclaimed Plummer.with great rudeness; recognizing and regretting which, he promptly added, "Even as the duck yearneth for its native element, so my heart goeth out to her serene and unrivalled Majesty.11 "'Plummer,* said her Majesty, as I slid into a chair at her side, embarrassed like, 'I have long looked ahead to this hour. Hundreds of years I have waited for it. Ah, with what intensity of alternate hope and despair, dear Plummer! Sweetheart, have a drink?' "Theconcluding words seemed harsh to me, though they were uttered la the clearest and most musical of tones. I quaffed, however, and it must hare been of a beverage brewed by the immortal gods. Fast as I quaffed, odd ss it may seem, the words were repeated, 'Sweethearts, try another,' and finally I sank, I swooned—the spectacle, the music, the oompany faded away I knew no more," The Christmas day began with flying snow. The bells rang out from church steeples aud rang merrily from the necks of flying horses. The windows had countless forest and city scenes and figures on them, traced by the merry but eccentric frost. "It must be late," said a forlorn figure, staggering to an upright position in a deserted hallway, "Wh-hy, where'a in* watch?" The figure searched its pockets and inquired with inn eh anxiety, "Wh-hy, wh-here'a m' monoy?" Then the figure Rtnggered out to the sidewalk, dismally uttering the myst.erions word, "Sc-cooped!" "Merry Christmas!" exclaimed an expectant youth, extending his open palm. "M'shon," replied the figure.gloomily and in a great state of confusion and doubt, woarily lifting » trerquloua hand to a throbbing brow, "Y' may th-think so. b-bnt I know b-b-etter.'"

CHAPTER IX—CONTINUE* AB be waa picking bis way along the Btraftd, a pince-nez astride bla nose and a very clerical-looking umbrella la bis black-gloved right band, his eye was attracted by an announcement in a window of a certain 'Instantaneous Hair Dye" on sale within, of which be at once bought a bottle. Then, after he had dined, be made a few otber purchases, comprising a Gladstone bag, together with such toilet requisites and other articles as were Indispensible. With these he was j driven in a cab to a certain quiet J hotel be knew of, where he engaged a bed and sitting-room and entered his name in the visitors' register as the "Re». Hebry ttabor.11 Within a few hours of bis arrival the color of his hair bad changed frdra a reddish brown to a beautiful jet black. But Koden bad no intention of becoming dependent on his mother or any one. He was possessed with the happy consciousness of being able to earn his living, though it might be rather a meagre one at first. His fingers began to itch for his brush and palette. In his assumed character of a young curate, he could not well go ont into the woods and fields with his hasel and camp-stool as he would so dearly have liked to do; but. not to be altogether idle, he began a series of water-color sketches from memory which he had little doubt of being able to dispose of later on. Later on. too, when the Sandycroft tragedy should have become a thing of the past and no longer dwelt so freshly in men's minds (not even, in those of the police, ) he would change his lodginga discard his clerical garb, and set to work again in desperate earnest For as days and weeks went by, and Ivor Penleath mado no sign, it seemed to Koden that his future way of life had been arranged for him by an inexorable destiny which had only left him one door of escape, and that one which he would never consent to avail himself of. CHAPTER X. The Meeting on the Tower. It was on a lovely evening toward the end of July that Knna Penleath slowly clomb the stairs which brought her out on the leaded roof of the old tower. The last time she ascended them had been on the morning of April IS, a date by her never to bo forgotten. The door of Rorlen Bosworth's painting-room on the first floor and the door of his bedroom on the second floor were both locked an they had been left by the police after their perquisition,, since which time no one had set foot inside the rooms. After the long hot day the air which played round the roof of tne tower felt doliciously oool and refreshing., She and Koden had spent many happy hours on the roof of the tower in days gone by. Sometimes ho would carry up a couple of camp-stools and a s<heet of drawing paper and give her a lesaon in chalka; sometimes ho would read aloud while she worked; ofttimes they were content to do nothing but talk.' It was of him that she waa thinking this evening, not as of one lo-*t to hor forever, but rather as of one hidden for a little while by a cloud which would presently lift and vanish— when, to her surprise and, it must be confessed, somewhat to her alarm, she heard the sound of footsteps. Someone waa climbing the stairs. Her heart began to boat painfully. Time had passed more quickly than she had been aware of; the du-k was deepening fast* She knew what an uncanny reputation the clock-tower had among the servants at the Croft, and that none of them would willingly go near it after sunset Who, then, "could this be whose footsteps— evidently those of a man—were drawing neater, stair by stair, and what could be his errand there at that hour? All that she could hope was that, if he were not already aware of her presence, she might perhaps, be able to slip down the staircase unseen in the dusk. Accordingly, when the newcomer emerged on to the roof. Knna, with the bulk of the clockturret between her and him, was invisibia and when a few momenta had passed without hit betraying any consciousness of her presence her courage began to come back to her, She felt sure that she heard him sigh. after which all was bo still that she could have counted her own heartbeats. It was very strange, she thought, and so thinking, she ventured to peep round one side of the turret. 4 The stranger was standing with his back toward her, leaning forward, with his folded arms resting on the parapet He seemed to be gazing straight before him at the Croft, which fronted the spot where he was standing. There waa something In his attitude, something, it may be. ia the pose of his head, which sent a momentary thrill through Knna. But oven to dream of-such a thing was preposterous. The close-cropped 'hair, the low-crowned, soft felt hat and the long clerical coat were the outward and visible signs of a stranger. Bui although he w u to «tU seeming a gee U•man, she had no desire to be found there by him. Evidently, if she wished to get i-nray unseen, she could not have a Vetter opportunity than the present one. Drawing her skirts about her, she stole round the turret on tiptoe in the direction of the stairs, but the sudben passage of a bat within a few inched of her faca caused a tremulous 'Oh!11 to break from her lips. At the exclamation the stranger turned and the two confronted each other. Ennu's eyes opened to their widest extent and she drew in he:- breath at a gasp. She had recognized Roden on the instant Afteojell. love is your most infallible detective, and clever indeed must be the disguise which she keen eyes fail to see through. "Roden—you!" she exclaimed in a voice that was hardly above a whisper; and with that she went forward and held out her hand. He took it it! both his, held it a moment or two in silence, and then let it go. She could feel the shiver that ran through him from head to foot He stood fronting the west where the last ashes of the burnt-out day were not yet wholly extinguished. By their pallid crepuscular light she could bee the working of his face, and note the flame of troubled rapture which sprang into his eyes the instant they rested on her, before the ardor of which her own bank abashed. "Yes—it is I," he answered after a pause, which ought to have been measured by heart-throbs instead of second* "I could not rest longer without looking again on the old place —and satisfying myself that all under its roof were welL Tut—I had no thought of seeing you, " ••It is the first time I have sot foot in the tower since that terrible night and I cannot tell what impulse brought me here this evening. You say that you had no thought of seeing me. Perhaps you wished, first of all to see my uncle Ah. Roden. if you had known how he has longed to see you. you would have come back long ago!' "No. I have not come in order to see Colonel Bernage. and he must not know that I have been here. 1 caine because I could no longer stay away, but I had no thought or intention of seeing any one—not even you-and two hours hence I shall be b&ck in London." ••You did not come to see my uncle, and he must not know that you have been here! Oh. Roden!'' It, was a cry in which pain, amazement and sorrow all seemed to have part. Love and sorrow that verged on despair spoke out of the young man's eyes as they ga/ed into hers. T.ien he said "I know well what you think, and I caniot blame you for i t " •It is not what I think. Roden. but what the world thinks and says, coupled with your own silence that has been such a pain to us all. IJelieve me when I tell you that in the thoughts both of my iiincles and myself you have ever been held guiltless of that which has " been laid to your charge!" . •Heaven blosa you for those words! Then, although the evidence was to all seeming HO sirong against me, you did nut—yo i do not—credit that 1 am the murderer of Captain Durvill!" He spoke quickly, almost fiercely. H was as though ho noedotl to be still more fully assured that she held him guiltless. "Need I repeat my assurance that we have novor lost our faith in \ou?" she asked, with a shade of sweet reproach in her voice. "Hut as time passed on, and your silenco remained unbroken, can you wonder if my uncles sonjetmies said to each other. "May there not havo been a quarrel between the- two, and may it not well havo come to pass that what was done was done in a moment of passion, of ungovernable frenzy, caused perhaps, by some great provocation or insult the secret of wnich was known to themselves alone?' That is what they have sometimes said to each other." "Such generous hearts as theirs find it bard to think ill of any one. It they had thought infinitely worse of me, they would have been justified in doing so. My silence must have seemed incomprehensible to all of you. But not even to the extent admitted in their thoughts am I guilty. 1 had neither part nor parcel in the death of Darvill. I am an innocent of all participation in it as Colonel Bernage himself." Enna stared at him durably, a strange continence of emotions acritating her heart; joy. thankfulness, wonder and faith that was justified of itself; but over all the brooding shadow of a mystery in which there seemed to lurk an unseen menace. "Then why" she said at last and then was silent but it was not yet so dark that he could not read the rest of her question in her eyes. •Then why did I not come forward and prove my .innocence before the worldP" he said. "This is a question which I cannot answer either to you or any one—pray pardon the rudeness which compels me to say sa " ••But Koden, I don't understand, 1 altogether fall to comprehend— 'Ohl help me out—you know what I want to express." "You fail to comprehend why or how it oomes to pass that I am thus bound in fetters which I am powerless to break. Believe me, if I were at liberty to tell you, 1 would, ah, how gladly! But mjr Ufft *ff sealed. The secret Is not my own. or It would have been told long ago. All I can do is to ask you not to lose faith in me, and sometimes to think of me—a little," "But this Is terrible! For how much longer have you condemned yourself to carry this awful DurdeuP" "I cannot tell My release may come at any hour, or it may never come." ••Never! Do you mean that all your life long you may have to remain branded as a murderer, and never bo free to prove your Innocence?" "It may be t>o. I do not know. The vista opened up by bis words appalled Knna. Her bosom rose and j fed in a tumult of emot.on. There was so much that her heart yearned to say, and yet so little that she raiybt; say. She had to put a guard on hor lips, or they would have betrayed her. •On. Koden, Koden!'1 she e\claimed, laying oue hand gently on his sleeve, ••what mystery i* hereJ What is this dreadful web in which you have HI- i lowed yourself to become entangled? Surely there must be some way of cutting it—some way of freeing yourself. Come with me to Uncle (iodfrey and tell all to him. If it be in the power of man to help you. he will help you; if ho cannot you will at least have' the consolation of knowing that your | secret is shared by one who looks upon j you almost as if you were his own son." ••It cannot be," responded Koden, in a voice charged with emot on. • -Xo one can help me; to no oue must my secret be told Had I been free to tell it it would have been told long ago—to him. my benefactor, whom J love and revere, first of all, and afterward— to von." Enna turned away with a tearless j sob. What more could she say? Ai i every point she was ba /ed and thrown j back upon herself. Then a fresh thought struck her. "hut supposing you should be arrested?" sheba.d. anc j there was a quaver in her voice whicl sounded like sweetest music in Koden'i ears. ••But I do not intend to be arrested, * he replied, with a grave smile; "con se ,uently it is hardly worth while U consider what would happen in suet a case. Believe me, 1 have no feai on that score. It is true that yoi j penetrated my disguise at once but—tbat is different You are thi only one who has done so.

Would not tha be worse—-inliniU'ly worse?" '•Oh yes—yes! Hut why you shoul be willing to bear such an intolerabl burden for another's sako when yo know yourself to be guiltless is to in incomprehensible." To tins Koden made no reply. The clock overhead struck ten. Knna started. '1 havo stayed ot of doors longer than 1 ought," >h said. "I'nclo Alwyn wi:l be growiu impatient to begin his game d bach gammon." Koden turned in silence and led th way down. "Ay, my poor (iinevru when shall I set eyes on theo airain? ho murmured as ho passed the doc of his painting-room.

It is conceded that the Royal Baking Powder is the purest and strongest of all the baking powders. The purest baking powder makes the finest, sweetest, most delicious food. The strongest baking powder makes the lightest food. That baking powder which is both purest and strongest makes the most digestible and wholesome food. Why should not every housekeeper avail herself of the baking powder which will give her the best food with the least trouble? Avoid all baking powders sold with, a gift or prize, or at a lower price than the Eoyal, as they invariably contain alum, lime or sulphuric acid, and T.ender the food unwholesome. Certain protection from alum baking powders can be had by declining to accept any substitute for the Royal, which is absolutely pure. AMUSING CONFABS.

Needle-women who do skilled work on fancy, lace trimmed aprons, are paid two shillings and six pence for twelve dozen, that is, seventy-two cents. A quick worker can complete four dozen such aprons a day, the pay being twenty-four cents, the women furnishing their own needles and thread. Match-box makers earn four and a half cents for one hundred and forty-four boxes, they finding the paste and fuel for dryiug the boxes; their earnings, being, for a week, of twelve to fourteen hours a day, six or seven shillings.

The Columbia daily pad calendar remains the only valuable daily pad calendar. The calendar for '93 is of the same general design as that of previous years consisting of 36(5 leaves, one foi every day in the year, and a calendar for the entire year. The day of the week, of the month, and of the year are given, and on each leaf is a short sermon on the "Gospel of Outdoors, Health and Happiness," with valuable hints on practical road making. The leaves are so arranged that there will be no stub left, and each one can be referred to at any time during the year. The pad is upon a metallic stand of ivory black, arranged so as to rest upon the desk at a convenient angle. The pad matter, which in the aggregate is enough to make a book, is all fresh and new, and is of more pertinent value than that olany previous calendar. The calendar is issued by the Pope Mfg.

Men and women are examined upon equal terms as to their fitness for the work.|,Thus far the concensus of opinion seems to be that women are quicker, while men are more reliable, the grand balance of utility being about equal. The stenographic notes of the women are found to be less accurate in the matteiMSf technical terms than the notes of the men; the comparison of time is in the proportion of sixty minutes to eighty minutes in favor of'the female competitors; while the proportion of errors in technical and business terms, and spelling, generally, is as six to eleven in favor of the males. A curious condition is revealed in examination of grand results in competition: the speed of the men remains stationary, while their accuracy shows a marked increase; the speed of the women shows a decided increase, while their accuracy shows an almost exact proportion of decline.—Demorest's Family Magazine. >> Bucklen's Arnica Salve.

An old ind successful agriculturist who re- •aembers when chickens nursed, now proposes to plant corn with peas and raise hot succotash. IT is notorious that the Panama •cheme was bolstered up by a vast system of bribery. Newspapers were •ubsidized to favor the scheme. Papers were established to take advantage of the opportunities of being corrupted. Touts of all kinds were kept In pay, from legislators down to work- Ingmen. All these expensive agents were employed to assure the French people that the company was sound and its shares a good investment THS complaint against too diffuse education, the learning of many things and nothing thoroughly, has been the cause of quite a little criticism. It is •ften discouraging to find how little result has come from the instruction given to children in the schools, how little remains to them of what they have read or been told. It is argued from this that if their attention was kept to a few subjects they would show more thorough knowledge and leave school with a truer education. CRITICISM of the school system is good for the schools if op\y it calls attention to faults. It is easy to point out that the schools are not satisfactory in their results. That rn.fi y ba admitted at once. But the question to be asked in regard to the defect pointed out is whether it may be remedied or is unavoidable. Probably the most general cause of failure of the •chools to makts more striking successes lies in the fact that Providence has not gifted his children overpleatifully with brains. Any system of edmcation must run up against this fact, and the system ia not to be blamed for <not accomplishing the impossible.

The congressional recount committee reassembled at Uriwid Rapids to hear Honorable J. C. Fit/^vrald's opinion as to whether or not the eight Populist votes accidentally left out of the Plain tield box should be counted. Mr. Fitzgerald cited numerous authorities and held that the duties of the committee were purely ministerial, that it could not go beyond the contents of the ballut boxes, nor could it call in witnesses to explain apparent discrepancies, hence the eight votes could not be counted. Law points are for the courts to decide and not for the committee or canvassing board. With this legal opinion before them the recount committee threw out tho eight Plainrleld ballots and one lielknap ballot which had been counted. After an explanation had been made by axa inspector, the Democrats filed au afiidavit and formal protest against counting the Soldiers' Home vote, as u preliminary for an appeal to the courts. The matter is still far from settled. A Terrible limiting Accident. x A most horrible accident occurred about one mile and a half from Middleton. Johnnie Duh'o, the 14 year old son of Chauncey Dufio, of that place, went rabbit hunting with his dog and gun. He was gone a longer time than was his custom and an older brother tried to find him, but no general search was made. Finally Fred Willert, a young man who was hunting, saw the dog and following it he discovered the dead body of the boy. He had evidently been standing on a log* and when he went to set his gun down the hammer struck the log, discharging the gun. The charge entered the front of his neck, passing out the back of it. His clothes caught fire and burned from his body, so that when found he could scarcely be recognized. An Insane Woman's Suicide. Mrs. Julia Krause, inmate of the insane asylum at Pontiac, threw herself in front of a Detroit, Grand Haven & Milwaukee train this morning and was killed. The right leg was cut off and the head crushed. She had been an inmate of the asylum three months and was thought to be convalescing. Mrs. Krause leaves u widower and son in fSaginaw.

Tbe Twentieth Annual 8«M1O& was Hald at Lwuakiff— Anti-Option bill Praised. The twentieth annual session of the State Grange was held in Lansing and wasiquite interesting. Worthy Master Mars in his address ispoke ot the pending senatorial contest. The gave the present caucus systern a severe drubbing, claiming that it was the means' of placing men without character or ability in the senate, giving men of great wealth and disreputable methods a clear road over poor, but honest, candidates. The worthy master also paid some attention to matters now before Congress. He said he was satisfied that markets are seriously affected by the great boards of trade and their mode of buying and selling, and hoped that the anti-option and pure food bills will pass. No plan has been suggested that, in his opinion, is a, better solution of the^reat question of finance thau the one now in vogue. He expressed the belief that the increase of money should keep pace with the increase of population. The land loan and sub-treasury schemes were said to have been relegated to the rear as one of the lost problems of the age. The scheme urged upon Congress having for its object the irrigation of the arid lands of the west was soundly condemned as one which, if adopted, will call for the expenditure of untold millions. The opinion was expressed that we now have all tho land needed, in view of the lively competition and small profits which exist. A good word was spoken for the free rural mail delivery project and for the State Agricultural College, which, he said, should have ample means to enlarge its usefulness and admit girls on an equal footing with boys. The grange's finances are in good condition and the order is growing slowly but steadily. A Sad Case of Insanity. Mrs. Eliza llaskins, of Odessa township, Ionia county, was brought before Judge Willett of the probate court at Ionia upon a petition for her admission to the Kalamazoo asyhun. She is but 18 years of age, and it raving* maniac, having been so since the birth of ,her child about two weeks ago. She was married to a good-for-nothing-fellow, Allie llaskins. about a year ago, and he deserted her last June and has since been paying his attentions to another girl in Odessa, lie was previously married to his present unfortunate wife's sister, who died of consumption, two children being the fruit of that union. She never asks for the child, but keeps cursing Haskins for his faithlessness and desertion of her. She thinks he has laid a plot to poison her. Stabbed in a Drunken Quarrel. John Odion, aged 5.1, and John Grindle, aged sixty years, the former a sailor and the later a common laborer, have been living under the same roof with (Irindle'sson-in-law in Piiichtovvn, near Muskegon. They went on a spree and toward evening they seperated. Odion going to Kveiling's saloon and falling asleep on a table. Soon after Grindle came in and walked up to his chum dealth him a powerful blow in the right eye, causing blood to flow. Shortly after both started for home, still quarreling.

PRESIDENT OF THE AMERICAN FEDERATION OF LABOR "Talk* Out Loud in Meetlu1" on tbe Bab- Jectofthe Wronys of the Workinginan and the Haae Use of State and Government Troupt—"Huuiettteud Martyr*." President Sunauel Gompers opened the twelfth annual session of the American Federation of Labor in Independence Hall, Philadelphia. Among the prominent labor men in the convention besides President (iornpers, Treasurer John JI. Lennon, of New York and Secretary Evans, of New York, were Samuel Goldwater, representing the cigarmakers; P. J. Maguire, of the .Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiuers of America; John J. Byron, Quarrymen's National Union; W. ]$. Prescott, of the International Typographical Union; Ex-President Weihe, of the Amalgamated Association of Iron and Steel "Workers and VV. A. Carney, his successor, came in for a share of attention, as did all the men who are engaged in the Homestead fight, who occupied seats together. An address of welcome was delivered by George Chance, of Typographical Union No. 2, in which in part he said: "It is said 'that the blood of the martyrs was the seed of the chureh. It is possible that through the blood of men who died on the banks of the Monongahela river last July there may come a realization of the true condition of affairs, and that the legislation of the future will be in favor of the masses rather than for the aggrandizement of the few." President Gompers replied and later delivered his annual report, a portion of which is, in substance, as follows: Events have transpired on the field of labor within the past six months which have aroused public attention because the incidents connected with them have been more or less of an unusual character. In each of those labor struggles the employers, the corporations, have simply made a request and the armed forced of the states and the United States were at their bidding. At Homestead, where the iron and steel workers were offered a wholesale reduction in their wages, an armed band of marauders, sailing under no flag, owing allegiance to no state or country (and consequently by the law of all nations considered pirates) was brought by the corporation to invade that peaceful town, to overawe and intimidate its citizens and workers, to aid in the effort to supplant their labor by a poorer and demoralized set of human beings. In the cou.l mines of Tennessee, where the miners were being gradually but surely supplanted by the labor of convicts, the miners pleaded in vain to the legislature of the state to stop this nefarious traffic. Instead of having their wrongs redressed they were scorned. At Buffalo 3.">0 switchmen asked to be relieved from long hours at work which was made dangerous to both the men and the traveling public by the long anil continuous strain. These men were treated with contempt and when they attempted to enforce the law—providing for a .10 hour day in New York state—the troops were cnlle+4-*Dut and the men treated as slaves. At Couer d'Alone the men were given the choice of greatly reduced wages or giving their work to the horde of heap, foreign contract laborers, anil when they stood for their manhood the United States sent her troops to do the .ridding of the mine owners. The comnandiug general of the United States forces issued an order that any employer who would operate his mines with union men would not be allowed to continue work. A United States judge issued an order prohibiting the .inion miners from holding a meeting. In other words, the constitutional right of free assemblage had been violated by a United States judge and a general of our army declaring- and enforcing an edict that the employer shall not carry on his business because he dare employ union men. I believe that an investigation by Congress should be asked for by us. It is plainly evident that the militia of our several states are now never utilized except for purposes of ostentatious show or as an element in labor struggles. There is not even a pretense that they should be what they were originally designed for "an arming of the people, a citizen soldiery, a national guard." Instead of being*the popular organization in defense of homes and firesides it has drifted into a machine of monopolistic oppressions against labor. What tho toilers need at this time is to answer the bitterness and vindictivenesjs of the oppressors with organization. Mr. Gompers urged the restriction of immigration and the repeal of the law closing the World's Fair on Sundays. Grows Fat From Fantlng.

The Secretary of the Navy Says We Have the Fluest Navy In the World or Nat i o n s . - T h e Fumoui Railway Mystery Cleared Up at Laat.—Items. tnim Weht eonr da irnbnietrra atinodn .appetite fall out It SS Secretary of the Navy Tracy in his annual report sets forth the fact that when the present administration came in, March 4, 1889, besides old and obsolete wooden ships only three modern war vessels were in commission. During the' administration 19 new vessels have been added to the navy, with an aggregate tonnage < f 54,833 tons, mounting two 13-inch, six 10-inch, lrt eight-inch and 83 sixinch guns. Three new bteel tugs have also been constructed and put in service. There are in process of construction 18 new vessels, certain to be completed next year, should armor be delivered, of aggregate tonnage of 93,497 tons and mounting 13 13-inch, six 12-inch, 16 10-inch, 30 eight-inch, 33 six-inch, 38 live-inch and 34 fourinch guns, all of which have been or are to be manufactured in this country. Not to ships alone has the development of the past few years been confined. Armor, torpedoes, heavy rapid firing guns, armor-piercing* shells, smokeless powder snd high explosives. It has been demonstrated that the United States in constructing its new navy, which 10 years ago had no existence even on paper, is enabled to place upon each and all its armored vessels material the like of which the world has not up to this time seen, and while vast sums have been spent plating the sides of foreign men-ofwar with inferior material this country will enjoy for the purpose an armor which is not only far more efficient but which represents unquestionably the highest development of modern science and development reached by its own efforts. \Vith reference to unprotected cruisers of the second class, of from 4,000 to 5,000 tons displacement, the department does not recommend any present increase in the number. Nor is it desirable to add to the number of heavily armed gunboats of the Yorktown type. Torpedo cruisers, from 800 to 1,000 tons, with speed 32 knots, sufficient coal capacity, rapid fire guns and powerful torpedo armament are the type of vessel most desired. ffffg The first le*aoa in dyspepsia is a surprise to bias who thinks he knows everything.

James Frouatt has been arrested at Rah way, N. J., for the murder of a comely young woman whose body was found on the morning of Saturday, March 20, 1887, in a lonely road leadingto the village of Milton, five miles west of Kahway. The body was never identified although viewed by thousands from all parts of New Jersey and New York. The murder is commonly known as the "liahway mystery." This is not Frouatt's first connection with the murder. He was one of the first arrested on suspicion, although there was then evidence that would have warranted holding him, he was allowed to go. He has been under surveillance ever since then, however. It is said that Frouatt's 12-year-old daughter has made a confession as to the actions of her father on the night of March 2">, 1887, when there was a party at Frouatt's house. The Frouatt girl tells of a strange and pretty young woman who was at the party, and her description tallies with that of the murdered girl. Dr. Charles Schenek has been elected president of the Swiss confederation and A. Frey vice president. T H E MAKKKT*. Detroit. Cattle—Good to choice.- ..

This boat will carry freight cars across Lake Michigan, making the rip in 6 hours, so that all freight shipped by this route will be carried through without breaking bulK, as has been necessary heretofore with freight handled across the Lake.

Estimates for State Institutions. Estimates submitted, in accordance •with statutory provisions, to the state board of corrections and charities show that total appropriations of $693,4)47.18 are asked from the next legislature for the 11 charitable, penal and reformatory institutions in Michigan. Of this Bum, $410,^04.38 is asked for current expenses and $283,542.tfu for special purposes. No new buildings are asked for except in case of the asylums for insane. The boai'd doubts the expediency of adding to the accoinmodotions of existing asylums, as each now has about all the patients its staff of officers can care for, but additional room is needed for the insane, and if the construction of a fourth asylum is not authorized the only way to care for the necessary number of unfortunates will be by enlarging the three institutions now in existence. Very little is asked for the prison at Jackson, as it is paying1 its own expenses. Official Presidential Electors Figures. The footings of the vote cast for presidential electors in the several districts at the recent election have been announced by the secretary of state. The combined vote of the four parties in the eastern and western districts of the state at large was as follows: Republican, 222,708; Democrat, 202,296; Populist, 19,782; Prohibitionist, 20,569. Harrison's plurality in the state was therefore 20,412 in a total vote of 405,- 055. The eastern district went Democratic with a plurality of 1,538; the western district went Republican with a plurality of 21,950. The Republicans carried eight districts and the Democrats four. A Distressing Accident. Richardson's paper mill, Monroe, was the scene of another distressing accident, almost identical with that which caused the frightful death of Rene Navarre a few weeks ago. A young man named Snider was eaiight in the same shaft, while attempting to remove some loose sheets of paper, and was drawn instantly into the belt gearing, making two revolutions before he was extricated. Fortunately other employes saw the accident and rescued the young man, but not before he had sustained severe injuries, including a broken arm, which may prove fatal. Ed Doyle, of Raisinville, was kicked in the back by a horse and is dying. Col. M. O'Leary, of Adrian, is after the position of internal revenue collector.

Court Vander Karr was recently arrested at Colon charged with abducting the 15-year-old daughter of Wallace Burch, of Leonidas. The prisoner proved the girl was 17 years of age and that they had been married, so he was released. The Cadillac veneer and basket factory, one of the new industries secured by that town's improvement board, has begun operations with orders ahead to run the plant for at least two months. Peck & Cutler will open their handle factory in a few days, so that by January 1 Cadillac will have two new and paying industries in successful operation. Eight Ishpeming iron mines shipped 1,511,700 pounds of ore during the season of 1892. This shows a gain of 289,- 603 pounds over 1891.

The Buffalo is the heaviest shipper with 380,- 714 pounds. Michael Casey, state salt inspector has submitted his annual report to Gov. Winans. Tl>ere are at present 109 firms engaged in the manufacture of salt in the state, operating 98 steam and 14 pan blocks, with a capacity of 6,424,000 barrels per annum. Some 3,710,024 barrels were manufactured the past year. The total receipts of the office for the fipcal year were $13,- 730.69 and thedisbursements810,880.55, leaving a balance on hand of $2,850.14. The bids which will be opened on January 13 for the construction of the floor, culverts, breast walls and miter sills of the new 800 foot lock at the "Soo," will be for both labor and material.

The work will have to be completed by December 15, 1894. LOCOMOTIVE ENGINEERS Hold 11 Social Meeting at Jackson Which U Largely Atteuded. Between 500 and 600 locomotive engineers met in Jackson for a jubilee meeting behind closed doors. Grand Chief P. M. Arthur, of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, was present and engineers within a radius of 100 miles were there to greet him. Excursion trains were run from Fort Wayne, Ind., Port Huron and Bay City. It was rumored that there was a big grievance to be made but Chief Arthur denied this and said the gathering was only a social union. Chief Arthur said: "Om order has never been in a more flourishing condition. Since April 1, the close of the fiscal year, 11 new divisions have been formed. During my 19 years of grand chief 1 have never seen a more prosperous state of affairs than at present. Grievances have, of course, arisen at different times, but thesti have all been amicably adjusted and all of the 35,000 of us are now happy." In the evening the grand chief addressed a meeting held by the Ladies' Auxiliary Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers. Unofficially it was learned that the World's Fair traffic was discussed at length by the brotherhood. The engineers want a new scale of wages to be in vogue at that time, and a meeting with railway officials to adjust the matter will be soon held. AROUND THE STATE. Hog cholera is reported to be raging in Lena wee county. An ice boat club is about to be organized at Cadillac. There are 12 candidates for the office of postmaster at Marcellus.

Upper peninsula people will ask the next legislature to build a branch of the reform school and an asylum in their section of the state. Prof. O. M. Graves, of Cadillac, has begun s'uit against the People's party committee of Schoolcraft county for services rendered during the campaign. Charles Dostic, 13 years old, of South Monterey, near Allegan, accidentally discharged his shotgun while hunting. The charge entered the stomach. The lad expired almost instantly. John Shannon, one of the oldest and best known hackmen in Kalamazoo was probably fatally injured while trying to stop his team. He fell and the wheels passed over his head, causing shocking wounds. The Lake Angeline mine at Ishpeming has demonstrated after several months' trial that men will do more work in eight hours per day than they will in ten. During the past two months under the eight-hour plan, the output was 450 pounds per man per day over the average of the best two months in the nine previous to the inauguration of the trial. This was not a fair trial either, for the election was responsible for many lost shifts, and many hours were lost spent in discussing the new scheme. The gain of 434 pounds per day is for every man employed in or about the mine, including laborers, engineers, firemen, machinists, carpenters and mine superintendents, THE GRANDEST UNION THE WORLD HAS EVER KNOWN WOULD BE THAT Of the Halted States and the Dominion ol Canada.—-A Youthful <lew» James In Wtaoouain Jtfardcr* an Old Mas and Take* Possession of His Home. The New York Sun, which for some time has been urging the political union of Canada and the United States, publishes a three column editorial on the subject. It is one of Dana's masterpieces. A brief abstract read* as follows: "There can be no doubt that the republic, with the addition of the Canadian possessions, would be much stronger than it now is, whether as a political, commercial or military power. Controlling, as it then would, the entire continent and the adjacent islands, with a population at the start of 70,000,000 of English-speaking people. It would certainly be the richest, the strongest and most progressive nation in the world. No foreign nation would dare provoke it to war or could successfully assail any of its essential interests. '"And now that the question of continental union has come forward with- •out assistance from us we must, in view of what has been said and of what remains to be said, regard it as altogether the most important question claiming the attention of the American people. It is clearly to the interes of the entire union and of every state in the union to encourage and assist by all proper means the movement now so hopefully progressing in favor of an equal, honorable and perpetual union between the dominion of Canada and the great republic. The spirit for union among the citizens north of the border, so far as we can ascertain, is spontaneous; far transcending every consideration of a partisan or sectional feature, and it should appeal to the purest and most unselfish patriotism, not only of every American citizen, but of every English speaking person on the North American continent.'.'

A terrible tragedy has just been unearthed in the town of Brannan, about 10 miles from Ogema, Wis. John Anderson, 14 years old, son of Mauritz Anderson, rar away from home about two weeks ago and took a brother aged 10 and his father's gun with him. They went to the house of neighboring farmer, Marcus Homefeld, a settler living alone. John proposed to his brother that when Homefeld came home in the evening that they kill him and live in the house all winter in true robber style. In accordance with that plan the older brother hid himself behind the haystack, and when Homefeld came put two charges of buckshot into his liead, covering his body with hay and proceeded to take possession. Two weeks afterward a brother-inlaw of Homefeld went to the house find found the boys there. They told him Homefeld was in the woods looking after his traps. He waited until the next morning and then went home, taking the younger boy with him. Arriving home he questioned the little boy ami drew the whole story out of him. A party was organized, but on arrival at the scene of the murder the assassin had gone. The Pope Is Pleaded. Rome cable: Mgr. Satolli has sent to Cardinal Rampolla an important letter containing the two decisions and report of the proceedings of the American bishops' conference and Rampolla has replied without delay, expressing the pope's satisfaction with the communication and giving further instructions regarding Satolli's mission to the United States. A high church authority says that the Vatican is in fact well pleased with the decisions of the conference on the scholastic questions considering them at once moderate and tending to union and peace. This satisfaction is all the more lively seeing that the resolutions are in harmony with the precise instructions given by the pop<> to Mgr. Satolli. The pope would have opposed absolutely any result of the conference tending to hamper his policy of -pacification or to encourage dissension between American sentiment and the episcopate, between religion and the state. Another Homeatead.| A company with §8,000,000 capital has had an agent in New Haven, Conn., for some days past looking over the ground with a view to establishing a steel manufacturing plant. The company will use a new process which it is expected will revolutionize certain lines of steel manufacture. Among the gentlemen said to be interested are Senator Joseph B. Hawley, of Hartford; Col. Litchfietd, U. S. A.; H. H. Hunt, of Reading; Theodore Allyn, of Brooklyn, and a few others." The concern will employ 3,000 men. Stamhoul Sold Cheap. The celebrated trotting stallion Stamboul, which holds the world's record of 2:O7#, the property of the late Walter S. Hobart, of the Hobart Farm, San Mateo, Cal., was sold by aution at the American Institute building, New York City, for 841,000. The purchaser was D. H. Harrirnan, a banker, of New York, who owns a farm in Orange county, N. Y. The price is ridiculously low, for Hobart paid 850,000 for the horse, and that was before Statnbou'l had broken or even tied the record. :.—Thirteenth day—The McGarruhan elaim and the anti-option bill were the s u j e e t s of muoli discussion.

I., aged 47. She was stricken with paralysis at the age of nine and for 3S1 years had not left the little crib in which her three feet of body reposed, nor during that time had there been an apparent growth in the limbs, shoulders or trunk. After a time her feet became locked, one on top of the other, and knit together so that the right foot, which was beneath the left, could hardly be seen. Nevertheless her head grew as rapidly to its proper proportions as that of a person who enjoyed good physical health. Her hands were palmiest and the four fingers on her right hand and the three on her left were boneless bits of flesh six inches long. Her memory was remarkably clear and her eyes beamed with brightness and intelligence. She was a constant reader of religious works and remembered everything which she read and would repeat it from memory. She devoted all of her time to reading works of eminent Catholics and in prayer. Monetary Conference Meets Again In May. Berlin cable: The international monetary conference adopted a motion made by M. de Renzi declaring that the conference recognizes the great value of the argument set forth in the reports presented and of the discussions that have been held in plenary sittings and that while reserving final judgment on the questions submitted the conference expresses gratitude to the government of the United States for affording an opportunity to study anew the present position of silver. Continuing, the motion declares that the conference agrees to suspend its labors and, subject to the approval of the governments represented, resume its sittings on May 13 next. It also expresses the hope that during the adjournment a thorough examination submitted to the conference will admit of the recognition of an ultimate basis for an understanding with Norway. Ireland Defends the Negro. Archbishop Ireland with great pomp and ceremony dedicated the new church of St. Peter Claver in St. Paul, Minn,, for the special use of colored Catholics. The congregation of colored Catholics was organized five years ago with a membership of seven. It now counts several hundred all converts to the Catholic faith. The archbishop in his discourse denounced in strong words the social ostracism from which the colored people suffer, declaring it contrary to humanity, to the Christian religion and to the American Republic. Another Klectrocutlon. Fred McGuire has been executed at Sing Sing prison, N. Y., for the murder of Mrs. Noah Gregory near Middletown, N. Y., Oct. 14, 1891. Only two shocks were administered. ,McGuire was killed by the first shock in 12 seconds. He was then examined by the doctors, and as far as could be seen no marks of scorching could be found, nor was there any discoloration of his flesh. McGuire's execution was declared the most successful one that was ever had in Sing Sing prison. SONG OF THE WIBES. TALES TOLD BY THE TICKERS OF THE TELEGRAPH.

According to these figures there have been 130,417 deaths from European and 13.r>,343 deaths from Asiatic cholera, making a total of 265,7fi0 deaths. Four leaders of the cholera riots have been sentenced by a court-martial to death. Eight of them were sentenced to imprisonment and condemned to hard labor, 30 to detention in the house of correction arid 40 to prison without bard labor. The 80a of the Treasurer of St. Loal*, Mo., DUgntve* HU rather and then Cum* xulta Suicide.---A Kear-Und CoUUlon KesaiU In Eight Death. The city of St. Louis, Mo., waa startled by an early morning alarm of lire in the city hall in City Treasurer Foerstel's office. An investigation showed that the vaults had been opened, a great many of the books and papers taken out, piled on the floor and set fire to. Fortunately the fire was soon under control without" doing much damage. Shortly after this came the news that the treasurer's son, Edward, who was also his first assistant in the office, had shot him* self in the right temple, inflicting a fatal wound. Acting Mayor Walbridge immediately ordered the city auditor and controller to take charge of the books in the office. The controller soon after made a partial report in which he says that Treasurer Foerstel is 863,000 short in his accounts. The mayor immediately suspended Mr. Foerstel, and appointed as temporary^ treasurer Charles Parsons3 a prominent ^-- banker. For weeks past stories of peculiar doings in the treasurer's office have been afloat. There have been suits brought against the treasurer by money lenders, notorious for their usurious charges, assertions regarding real estate deals of the treasurer and his son allegations of use of the city money by some one who recouped the treasury previous to the regular examinations by borrowing from the Shylocks, who at last sued the treasurer himself on notes which he declares to be forgeries. The police cannot shake off the suspicion that young Foerstel set the fire that was discovered in time to save the records. Young Foerstel's record is that of a wild young man and plunger. On horses he was a heavy better, placing a thousand or more at a time. He was also interested in real estate deals beyond his capacity to handle, as is shown by recent developments in court proceedings, in the nature of injunctions, etc. KILLED WHILE ASLEEP. Eight Men Burned and Crushed to Death In an Awful Wreck. A frightful accident occurred on the Great Northern railroad at Nelson Station, five miles east of Alexander, Minn. There had been a collision the morning before at Nelson and a number of cars were wrecked. The wreck train had been there clearing and was making up preparatory to pulling out for the east and the caboose was left standing on the main track with a number of cars. An east bound freight was due, but the engineer had orders to sidetrack for the passenger train due there at the same time. There is a heavy grade west of the station and as the freight with 36 cars, under charge of Conductor William Nickey and Engineer James Maloney, approached the switch the engine was shut off and brakes called for. There was no perceptible decrease of speed and Conductor Nickey climbed out of the caboose and began setting brakes, but the speed was too great to stop. When within a train length of the caboose the engineer and fireman saw the track was full ahead and jumped. The engine struck the wreck train, threw thts caboose on top of the next car, setting both on fire. There were 14 men in the caboose, One jumped off, five were hurt, three were burned beyond recognition and four were killed. One was totally consumed, not a sign of his remains being found. INTERESTING ITEMS. The war department has decided again to garrison Key West, Fla. There have been 25 cases of cholera in Hamburg in the last week, and two deaths. Robert Beatty, charged with the poisoning non-union workmen at Homestead, has been held in $5,000 bonds to trial. The controversy of Bishop Wigger, of Newark, and Fr. Corrigan, of Hoboken, N. J., has been settled by the latter's apology. The extreme winter weather that has prevailed in Western Kansas this month has caused much suffering among the settlers. Capt. Pabst has forgiven his son for marrying Margaret Mather and haa taken the young couple to his bosom and his home in Milwaukee. Don M. Dickinson, Senator Vilas, ex-Secretary Whitney and W. R. Grace had long conferences with Mr. Cleveland at his New York home. By a vote of 1,028 to 527 the Federation of Labor, in session at Philadelphia, voted down a socialist resolution asking that the government shall control all means of transportation, communication and production. The Kansas Democratic state committee are now working to hold the balance of power in the legislature between the Republicans and Populists, and hope to name the next United States senator. They also indorse ex- Gov. Glick for secretary of agriculture. Nicholas Fernandez, a wealthy young Spaniard of New Orleans, who killed Aurelio Diaz, a nephew of President Diaz, in a duel last week, haa been arrested and tried on a charge of murder. The seconds of Fernandez have also been arrested. The affair waa the outcome of trouble over a young woman. 1 , |he Sandycroft Mystery. BY T. VT. BPJK1GHT. CHAPTER X—CONTINUEJX Enna might have overheard his wordd, seeing thai when uho spoke next she said. "And when shall I see you mjaia Roden?" ••Tha t is mure lhan I can say." He felt that it would he better for both their sakes that their meetings should be few and fur between, but bow was It possible to tell her no? Equally impobsible was it for Enna to press him on such a point ••Yo u will at \eai t leave mo an address at which a letter will Und you in case of neue.-sity," she said. Then as he seemed to hesitate: "How can one tell from day to day what need may arise?" •*1 will send you an address tomorrow where a letter or message will always find me." he said. They were walking slowly toward the house. In the darker shade of a clump of evergreens Enna came to a stand. The moment for parting was at hand. "If you could but come indoors with me." she said, with sweet pleading in her tones. "If you would but trust Uncle Godfrey!" "It cannot be," he answered with a ring of sharp pain in his voice. •vood-b y then, and God bless you I'1 bhe said, laying both her hands in bis. •<jood-b y and Heaven keep you!" he responded. ••No w that I have been there again, I dare say that on line evenings I shall often n'nU my way to the leads of the tower," said Enna in a low voice, feeling her cheeks flame in the darkas she did so. For sole response Roden lifted the hand which rested in his and pressed them one after the other to his lips, 'i'hen he drew back a pace and lifted his hut A whispered "Farewell" Heated through the summer eve. A moment later he was alone. CHAPTER XI. What Lord Seniac Had to Tell Miss Ponleath's ehance interview with Roden Bosworth left her in even greater perple«ity than before. It was un iniinite relief to have the assurance from his own lips that in no shape or form was he personally implicated in l>arviil'd death, and yet that he should allow the guilt of it to lie at his door, and make no effort whatever to disprove it could point to but one conclusion—that he was sacrificing himself in order to screen some other person. But who could that other person bo? All this time no word from Ivor Penleath had reached any one at the Croft. But that was a faoi whicl* gave rise to no alarm, scarcely even to surprise, in the mind of either b.0 sister or his uncle; they were used to such vagaries on his part It was only one instance the more added to tfce long list of his eccentricities. His sister had not failed to ask him for an address at which letters and newspapers would find him or from which they could be retnailed to him. while he on his part had not failed to go away without giving her what she had asked for. Thus they had no means of knowing at the Croft whether any particulars of the tragedy which had followed so closely on his departure had reached him. Still though he might be beyond the reach of English newspapers, except any which might be sent specially after him. it was unlikely that he woul not have seen one or other of the American journals containing, in however meagre a form, a notice of the peculiar circumstances connected with Darvill'8 death. In the face, however, of Ivor's continued jilence, nothing could be taken for granted. It was about a fortnight after the meeting on tho tower when Colonel Bernage and Miss Penleath received •ac h a pressingly-worded invitation to the dinner, to be followed by a ball, about to be given in honor of the coming of age of young Alan Cunlitfe, of Urswick Manor. One of the first people on whom Enna set eye3 when she entered the drawing-room at Urswick Manor was Lord Seniac a fair-haired, shortsighted little man, with a tlufty mustache and a very obtrusive eyeglass, who saw her at the same moment and came forward to shake hands with her. •Ca n it be really you Lord SenlacP'' demanded Jrnna, in unfeigned surprise. "I thouarht that you were five or six thousand miles away at the very least. Pray. sir. what have you done with my brother?" "As far as I am aware, Ivor Pen* leath is at the present moment in New Vork. At least; that is where I left htm a fortnight ago." "But why are you back so soon? I thought your expedition, or whatever you oalled it* was to last till late in the autumn. And why did not Ivor return,with you?1 "Some special family business compelled my father to cable for me and brought me back before my time. The reason why Ivor didn't come back with me was, I suppose, because he didn't want to. But when did you hear la-»t from your brother?" "We have not had * ulna-It Jine from him since he left England with you in April," Queer fellow! Then you haven't beard about his accident?" "Accident? Good gracious, not' What was UP" •H e broke his arm within a few bourn* of landing. But don't be alarmed; he's as right as a trivet again. I give you my word, He hadn't been more than five or six hours in New York before he met with bis accident He was mooning about the streets by himself, being, as I dareaay you are aware, a bit unsociable at times and louder of his own company than that of other people, when be was. unfortunately knocked down and run over. He was carried to the nearest hospital, and when be came to himself he sent for me." '•Poo r Ivor! No wonder we never heard from him," said Eona. 'Of course he could not hold a pen. But it would have been kind of you. Lord Seniac to bavu dropped me or my uncle a Line.11 • 1 proffered to do so more than once, but Penleath forbade roe in the most positive terma and you know how very positive he can be when he likes. Well, the other fellows of our party went oij next day; but although Penleath wan wild with me for not going with them, I stayed in New York upward of a week, seeing as much of him as the hosp tal people would allow of my doing, and did not leave till he was fairly on the way to recovery." •Tha t was very good of you. But did not Ivor .go west and join you as soon as he was able" "He never pot farther than New York. When I called on him on my way back. Jn the hope that he would return to England with me, I found that he had taken rooms, engaged a man to wait on him, and was living there en garcon." "Had he mite recovered from his accident by that time?" ••T o all appearance. He had to bo careful how he used his arm, and will have to be so, 1 dnre say, for a considerable time to corae." •H e declined to return with you?" • -He did He said that ho had taken quite a liking for the republican institutions and ways of life, and would stay and study them a little longer. But entre nous. Miss Penleath, I'm inclined to believe, from one or two little things which came to my eara that it s not the republic's institutions, but one of its fair daughters, that is at the bottom of Master Ivor's disinclination to quit .the New World. Thi3 sounds a little like telling tales out of school; but if I had not been somewhat anxious abbut him I should not have taken the liberty of speaking as I have. If you have any influence over your brother, Miss Penleath. now is the time when it would seem desirable that you should bring it to bear." 1 'I understand, and I thank you. You will give me my brother's address in New York?" "With pleasure." "Did Ivor ever say anything to you about Captain Darviifs death?" asked Enna presently, in a low voice. —hord Senlao bosritnted for a moment or two. them ho said: "As far as I recollect, the sub eot was never mentioned between us. During my first days in New York I was greatly concerned about Penleath, and I don't believe I as much as glanced at a newspaper. 1 found a lot of papers waiting lor me at Denver, and then, of course, I read all about the affair. WThen I got back to New York I had only a couple of hours with your brother, and I don't think the subject cropped up between us. By the way,- it's rather singular when you come to think of it—I mean as an illustration of the complexities of modern life— that Ivor should have been at the Croft within an hour of the time the murder is said to have been committed, and yet that neither he nor I should hear a syllable about it till we were more than nve thousand miles away." 1 nna stared at him with startled eyes. • *I fail to understand you.'' she said. ••Ivo r left the Croft that evening to join you at Broom Hill station, ia time to catch the 9 o'clock train for Liverpool, whereas—" "Just so; but aren't you aware that he went back to the Croft again in order to get something he had left behina?" " •Wo. I am not aware of anything of the kind," answered Enna, faintly, with a shiver at her heart. "Anyhow that-'s what be did," an- Bwered Senlao. "We met at the station, as agreed upon, and Penleath had sent back the dog-cart when all at once he discovered, and very much put out he seemed, that he bad left behind something of great importance (what it was he never to4cl me <. which it was imperative that he should go back in person to fetch. Accordingly, he hired a tiy, and was away a little over an hour. Of course we missed the 9 o'clock train, but \?e got away by tho one leaving at 11 o'clock. But you say you knew nothing of this?" "No—nothing." Did she speak the words aloud, or only ancy that she didP She could not tell. "Penleath won't DO likely to forget that evening for some timo to come." resumed Seniac. "When he got back to the station be bad an ugly cut just above the left eye. He had tripped and stumbled ia the dark be said. Tin afraid he'll car* ry the scar as long as be lives. Bui good gracious, bow ill you look- Miss Penleath. What can I do for youP What can I get for you?" "I shall be better presently. Give me your arm as far as the terrace. It 1B cooler there." j Dancing began a few minutes later, aad Lord Seniac. who was engaged for the first walt& hurried away in search of h>s partner. Enna was glad to be left alona The whole terrible story was now made clear to her. 1. or. for so ma purpose of hla own, had gone back to the Croft and had there encountered DarvilL A quarrel had ensued (eho remembered that her brother had never disguised his dislike for the captain), there had been a struggle, as was evidenced by the wound over I v c 's eye and the overturned lamp, and in tbe beat of passion Ivor bad stabbed Darvill to the heart Koden bad somehow become cognizant of tbe fact and in order to screen her brother, had allowed tbe burdon of guilt to be laid upon bis shoulders. Times ever since the interview with him she bad asked herself for whose sake be had allowed himself to be made a scapegoat Now she had her answer. CHAPTER XIL Explanations. As uncle and niece were on their way home from Urswick manor, tbe colonel said: "I suppose Lord Seniac did not fail to tell you about Ivor and his accident and bow unaccountably be seems to bo lingering on in«New York?" The colonel bad been as surprised as Enna at finding his lordship at the manor, and had not failed to question him as to bis unexpected return, ••Ye a be told me," answered Enna, in her most matter-of-fact tones. "If it were any ottler than Ivor." went on the colonel. ' I should say it was uncommonly ungrateful (not to use a harsher term) on his part never to ha e dropped a I ne to either of us all tbe time he has been away; nor even to send us a message by Seniac; but I have grown so used to your brother's peculiarities that I am never surprised at anything be may do or say—or rather, as in this case, at anything that he may lea.e undone or unsaid." As nothing further was BE id, Enna concluded that Lord Seniac had not thought it worth while to say anything to the colonel about Ivor's return to the Croft on the night of the murder, of which not a creature about the house seemed to be aware, or of the wound over his eye when he got back to the station. To his lordship they doubtless seemed matters of trivial import while to her they wore replete with the most tragic significance. This reticence on Senlac's part, all unwittingly though it might be, was a great relief to hnna. Although by nature one of the most unsuspicious of men. might not those two little facts had they been told her uncle, ha e opened up a train of suspicion in bis mind, the following up of which might have led him no one could say whither? Yes, she told herself as sho alighted at the Croft it was bettor, infinitely better, that her uncle should be left in ignorance, at least for the present and untfl she herself should have bad t me to think over what had been told hor and make up her mind as to what step it behooved her to take in view of the unexpected light thrown by Lord Seniac upon what hod hitherto been to her an impenetrable mystery. [TO BE CONTINUED.] A JUDGE'S ROBE. Chief Justice Chase and Hla Missing Gown. Have you ever seen the supreme court of the United States during one of its sittings? Unliko judges in most lower courts, the supreme court justices wear black gowns that are much like ca^BOcks or church choristers. Arrayed in these somber black gowns, the justices, a row of seven or eight very large and very learned men. present an appearance of official dignity that is most striking. The supreme court convenes at 12 o'clock. One day Chief Justice Chase was unable to find his robe. He searched every part of the robingroom, and even lighted a mat'-h to go deeper into his closet than usual in search of the missing gown, because the day was a dark and rainy one. It wanted but a minute or two of twelve, when the chief justice, almost beside himself with long searching, appealed to Ben Wade, the famous rough and roady Benator from Ohio, who chanced to enter the room, to help him find the lost gown. Wade had just come in from out of doors, and so, thrusting his umbrella under one of the settees to see if the missing garment was there, he fortunately fished it out Holding it at arm's iength on the end of his dripping umbrella, he shouted: "Here, Chase—here's your old shirt." The learned chief justice reached his seat in the middle of the row just as the clock struck the last stroke of twelve, but the spectator from the front would never ha e guessed that the gown which clothed so much dignity had been, ten seconds before, dangling at the en<3 of a very wet umbrella.—Harpers' Young People.

News that the deadly work of cholera still continues in Hamburg emphesizes the necessity of taking vigorous mensures against invasion of this country next spring. What we need is a federal system of quarantine at New York and other leading ports, giving the national authorities full power. Representative B rosins has introduced a bill to this effect, naming New York, Portland, Boston, Philadelphia and Baltimore for national quarantine. This measure, judging from tho summary supplied from Washington, requires modification in several important particulars. But the essential idea of federal quarantine control is one which should be cariied into execution. - Press. After twelve years of rest the great volcano Mauna Loa, in Hiwaii has started into activity. Two villages in its vicinity, with their neighboring plantations aro threatened with total destruction. During the eruption of 1880, the lava emitted rose to a height of 800 ft. above the mouth of the crater and flowed in a stream from 12 to IK) feet deep to the very outskirts of a villnge4hiity-five miles distant. In 1802 the lava was shot 1000 ft. in the air, ami boulders weighing 100 tons and over were tcssed up in countless numbers, For several day8 before this latest overflow began terrific rumblings within, the volcano and the earth trembled violently. The danger to life is not very great, but it is feared the lava will overun the surrounding country and do great damage. The destitution of more than 1000 victims of the unfortunate strike at Homestead presents a stirring appeal to the generous impulses of a charitable public. It means that women and children are hungry and cold, that homes are dreary and fireless, and that to many innocent hearts in the unfortunate town the coming of Christmas signifies only an added sense of despair. It would be unjust to the generosity of the American character to assume that the distress and hardships of those suffering people will be permitted to remain long unrelieved.—N. Y. Press. Perhaps it is right for this government to go on and allow workingmen to go on a strike for three or four months each year, thereby losing for themsolves and their employers millions of dollars, ami then ask the law-abiding citizens to support them (the workmen) and their families, because they are destitute. Perhaps, we say, it may be right, but to us it looks like au outrage. This manlier of treating strikeis will only toward causing strikes. Read Me! READ ME!

CONFISCATED WAR MAP T_re German emperor is incensed at the Berliners for their want of awe in the presence of majesty. When the empress went shopping recently an unmannerly crowd gathered about the shop the patronized and about her carriage and made oiTensive remarks about the lady's appearance. Royalty is not the thing in the eyes of the masses it once was. WILL the one significant, palpable, iebvious creation which shall stand to the world as the American novel ever appear? It seems unlikely, for the conditions are all in favor rather of * multitude dioroductions of varying type, but of unquestionable excellence. Great books will be written la America, but the one great story in which American life shall be forever typified will not be written within the toext century. SOMIBODY has been giving away, or to be accurate, has been selling the •ecrets of the German army. Among these is the fact that a lot of guns arirayed to strike terror to nations are ^Innocuous at the muzzle, but deadly at the breach and sidewise of marked homicidal tendency. Much interest is taken in the revelations, that displayed by the emperor being marked "by an almost enthusiastic desire to meet the betrayer. •The schoolmaster is abroad."

The honor eould not have been more worthily bestowed. The "Autocrat," although more than eighty years old, has not lost his poetic fire, and should he accept, will prove a laureate worthy of the occasion. Since the deaths of Longfellow, Whittier and Lowejl, Dr. Hoimea is the best known abroad and most distinctively representative American poet that could be named. ACCORDIXO to the supreme court the freedom of the press is by toleration Instead of by right in this country, since the postal authorities may, when authorized by congress, exclude from the mail every document, public or private, political, religious or social, whenever the ideas or principles it aeeks to disseminate are condemned by their judgment as injurious to the people. Under such a sweeping declaration the constitutional amendment <!ecaring that "congrew shall make oo law abridging the freedom of speeoh or of the press" doesn't amount to much beyond soundinjjjretty. IT CAVE THE LOCATION OFi THE UNION FORTS. An Aocur»te Drawing- of th» Nation* Capital K«H Into tn» Hand* of tUe t'ont«4erat«-—Only On* Xauia Survive*. Probably one of the rarest maps of the District now in existence is a little folding sheet about three feet square* dated ••1H62." It was the work ot a New York syndicate under the management of K. b\ Arnold, a civil engineer, and tshows the original area of the 'ten miles square." with the adjoining bits of Montgomery. Prince George's, and Alexandria counties. But the foature ol the map was that it showed as well tbe position of all the fortifications around the capital and the location of all the roads leading thereto. In this last respect in fact it is said to be one of the beat maps of the region that has ever been published. It'a career was short-lived, says the Washingt <a l'ost. It was issued without the knowledge or consent of the government, and two days after the first copy had been put on sale. the rumor of its existence reached the ears of the war department and the officers of the law swooped down on the bookstores and gobbled up every copy in stock. An edition was probably never exhausted so \^u,kly before. Not only were all the bookstore copies taken, but the names of those who had bought copies ot the map were learned, and those individuals were promptly called upon and given the alternative of surrendering the purchase or going to the Old Capital, which was then the political prison of the city. The plate trora which the map had been printed was confiscated as well, and thereon hangs another part of the tale. The projectors of the map were allowed $8,001) indemnity for their loss soon after the war. but in some way or other the record of the payment of this claim was either lost or never registered in the warrant division of the treasury. About ten years ago it was presented for payment again, and the government came near having to pay it over with interest added but a search of the files showed the original check by which the claim had been paid with the indorsement of the attorney of the syndicate on the back of it. indicating that ho had probably pocketed the proceed:* at the time of the first payment. Jn spite of the care of the government in suppressing the issue of the map a few copies still remained in private possession, and it is said that the most of theae found their way much farther south of the Potomac than it was ever intended that they should go. The construction of the defenses arouud tbe city WHS placed in the hands of three civil engineers. Almost every point of vantage was occupied, work after work being constructed, till at last the city was encircled by a chain of tifty-two ramparts, ranging all the way in importance from a mere battery to earth forts of considerable dimensions. Few of these ever saw any active hostilities. There wore skirmishes around some of them, especially on the Virginia side of the Potomac, and demonstrations were made at times against Fort Buffalo and Fort Ramsey on Oak and Upton HilU but the works that eaw the liveliest times were Fort Stevens and De Kussey up in the northern point of the district. where the tiafetlv arrival of the old Sixth corps stemmed the tide of Early'* advance on the capital. The first of the works that were constructed are shown on the map by three little red dots up in the northwestern corner of the map, ust beyond the district line. They crown the. top of a saddle back hill, and are labeled Kipley, ir.nklin and Alexand r. The approaches of the chain bridge were commanded by Battery Martin Scott on the north side of the river and tort Ethan Allen on the south. At the Virginia end of the aqueduct bridge four forta were ranged within a short distance of each otuor. They were Corcoran, Hagerty, De Kalb and Bennett, of all of which traces still remain. Fort Myer is not shown on the map. us it was constructed later in the war. On the hills back of Alexandria, which was quietly loyal only under Btriit compulsion there were forta Taylor and Ellsworth, the latter named after the ill-fated young martyr of Alexandria. Farther up the road toward Washington tort R«nyon ! commanded the railroad and this, by the way. is the only one of the fort names on the map which is now in use to designate a locality. The end of the Long Bridge was commanded by Fort Jackson, named after the settlement whoso corner-stone WHS laid with such pomp by old Hickory in i the expectation that the yonng city ! thus started was to be the rival of the ! capital itself, an expectation which ! up to the present moment has not been realized. Traces of nearly all of these works may still be found, in the most cas<>_ overgrown with blackberry bushes, and a haunt for quaiL rabbits and the other wild denizens of the region, who seek a quiet retreat from the constantly encroaching settlements; but the only practical use of tbe works that onoe made the little faded map sheet famous 1B la one or two cases where the fort is near a dwellinghouse and the powder magazine has been roofed over and dug out afresh to be used as an icehouse. SOME WEATHER LORE. Th« Son la Supponwd to Forecast t h e State of tbe Weather. Among the people of all countries and ages the tun's redness on riuinj? or netting has a ways been regarded as ominous. These notions have furnished material for many proverbs. An old English adage informs us that—If red the sun begins his race, Be sure that r;un will full upace. Even Christ alludes to the same popular idea of the sun's color and Us relations to wet or dry weather, whero he says (Matthew xvu, £8): "When it is evening, ye say, it will be fair weather; for the sky is red. And in the in or o ing. it will be foul weather to-day: for the sky is red and lowering. " It may be remembered, too. how graphically Shakespeare puts forth this same pro.verb in his "Venub and AdonW-*"' Like a rea inoru, luut ever yet betokened Wreck to the soamun, tempest to tha fields; Sorrow to the shophards, woe unto the birds. Gusts and foul flaws to herdsman and to herds If we turn to European observations we find that the Italians »ay: ••If the morn ba red, riin is at har.<i " and, again, "if the sky be red \raea the morning star is shining, there will be rain during the week." As is well known, however, a red sunset is just as propitious as a red rising is unlucky—"a red sky at night being a shepherd's delight" and according to a saying very popular when the writer was a child— "red sunset and a gray rising sets the pilgrim a-walking." At Malta the stable boy will tell you th-at "a red sunset says: Get your horse ready for to-morrcw.1" Jn "Richard IIL " Shakespeare gives us the same proverb in different words: The waary sun hath made a polden set, And, by the bright track of his lierv car, Gives token of u goodly day to-morrow Indeed there are numerous proverbs on this sub act. all to the same purpose, an ancient Scotch rhyme being; as follows: Ttie evening red and th'^ morning prray Is a n u n of a bright and ehoory day; Evening pray and morning red — Put on your h i t or you' 1 wvr vour Vinid. In Germany it is commonly said that Evening red. morning K''uy. Souds the travoier on uis way. ON A LOG WITH A SNAKE. A Union Spy Who Faond Drowning, Cold I.pad and n Moccasin. "I believe I got into the closest place during the civil war that a man ever got out of alive" said K. i\, Harper, the Mulhatton of Michigan. to a Globe Democrat reporter. "I had been detailed to obtain information regarding the strength of a detachment of confederate troops stationed on the Tennessee river, near Decatur, Ala. I got the information, and was working my way baci_ to camp when I was discovered and pursued by a scouting party. I imd concealed a 8kitT in the brush on the banks of tho river but a sudden rise had swept it away, and there wa* nothing to do but to surrender or swim the swollen stream. j pifuoged in, ,but the current was stronger than I had anticipated, and by the time I reached midstream my strength was about exhausted. 1 managed to get hold of the end of a floating1 log and drifted down stream, while the Johnnies made the water around me boil with their bullets. I soon drifted out of range and crawled upon the log1, only to discover that it was already occupied by a big water moccasin who was inclined to ciisputo possession. I had no weapon but a water-soa ed pUtoL If I stayed on tbe log I would gel hit; if I got off I would be drowned. While debating what I should do the log drifted within range of tho union pic.ceta and they appeared to think I had' been raised up by a special providence as a practice target The first volley killed tha moccasin, and before they could reload I made them understand that I was not trying to pull any feathers out of the tail of the American eagle. Since my escape from that position of fourfold paril I have been something of a fatalist" A Pnytnjj Kuii't«fl.i, Some English newspaper women who wanted to find out whether tha people who sing in the London streets make a good living or not put on a disguise and taking a guitar, went out to try it for themselves.

TIM Fkunous Crime of Prcaqoe Ialc Oooaty Now Bains; KxpUtod. The first of the Molitor murder con- Bpiraoy trials at Alpena has ended and the prisoner is charged with murder in the first decree. The jury was out all night before a verdict could be reached. The prisoner—August Grossman—be* came ghastly pale as the jury walk polled and great beads of perspiration stood out on bis face as the words were spoken which consigned him to life imprisonment. His wife broke down and wept piteouBly. The prisoner was remanded for sentence. There are also three other defendents in the case and they will be tried in the February term, each separately. Hepke and Reiger, who are also under indictmerit but who have made confessions, will probably plead guilty and throw themselves on the mercy of the court. Is in understood that proceedings will be commenced against Mende, Sorgenfrie, Weisengart and Bruder, the remaining four of the twelve who were are alleged to have been in the conspiracy, Barabas and Tuelgetski being dead. Proceeding may also be begun against Andrew E. Banks. The case of Grossman will probably be appealed to the supreme court, but a new trial is not expected. The story of the conspiracy is as follows: Albert Molitor and Ed Sullivan, his clerk, were shut one night in August, 1876, while at work in the former's office in Rogers City, Presque Isle county. Five shots were fired, the assassins taking aim through an open window. Molitor and Sullivan died a few hours later in great agony. Justice wasn't much of an institution in Presque Isle county in those days and little effort was made to run down the murderers. Molitor was a man of large wealth, but he was also the most unpopular man in northern Michigan. He was something of a despot in Rogers City. Presently the tragedy was forgotten. In August, 1891, however, one Repke made a confession declaring that he was one of a dozen implicated in the conspiracy. Twelve arrest were made, and Keiger, one of the prisoners, confessed complicity in the murders. Only five were held, however, and August Grossman is the first tried. The cases were transferred to Alpena county last August, it being impossible to secure disinterested veniremen in Presque Isle county. BRITAIN'S LAKE NAVY. Three Large "Revenue Cutters" Which »r« In Reality Wamhipg. Capt. Shepard, of the revenue marine service, has received a report from one of his lieutenants on the new, revenue cutters built by Canada during the past year and now ready for service. There are three of them—the Constance, the Curlew and the Petrel. The first two were built at Owen Sound and the Petrel has just been launched at Hamilton. Designs of the ships have been secured and accompany the report. They show that in all essential features the boats are naval vessels. They have steel protected decks, ram bores, are fitted for the reception of torpedo boats, have fittings for the mounting of four oneinch Hotchkisu rapid firing- guns and carry three very effective weapons. The report states that English and Canadian officers and citizens explained that these vessels were built with a view to protecting the Wei land canal from destruction in case of attack. And in this connection the statement was made that there are 50 vessels in the British navy that can be introduced into the great lakes via the SL Lawrence and canal route.

The increasing moonlight drifts across my bed And on the churchyard by the road, I know It falls as white and noiselessly as snow, 1' waa such a night two weary summers fled; The stars, as how, were waning orerhead. Listen! Again the shrill-lipped bugles blow Where the swift currents of the.river now Past Frederlcksburg, far off the heavens are red With sudden conflagration: on yon height, Linstock In hand, the gunners hold their breath; A signal rocket pierces the dense night, Flings its spent stars upon the town beneath. Hark I—the artillery massing on the right, Uark!—the biac.c squadrons wheeling down to Death! Lincoln an loitruinent of God. The Richmond (Va.) Dispatch some time ago adversely criticised the editor of the Louisville Courier-Journal because he styled Abraham Lincoln "The inspired of God." To this criticism Mr. Watterson last week replied editorially and from his masterly effort the following is auoted: From Caesar to Bismarck and Gladstone the world has had its soldiers and its statesmen who rose to eminence and power, step by step, through a Beries of geometrical progression, as it were, each promotion following in regular order, the whole obedient to well understood laws of cause and effect. These were not what we call "men of destiny." 'They were men of the time. They were men whose cause had a beginning, a middle and an end, rounding off a life with a history, full, it may be, of interesting and exciting events, but comprehensible and comprehensive, simple, clear and complete. The inspired men are fewer. They rose from shadow and they went in mist. They arrived, God's word upon their lips; they did their office, God's mantle about them; and they passed away, God's holy light between the world and them, leaving behind a memory half mortal and half myth. Tried by this standard, and observed in an histrionic spirit, where shall we find an illustration more impressive than in Abraham Lincoln, whose life, career and death might be chanted ty a Greek chorus as at once the prelude and the epilogue of the most imperial theme of modern times? Born as lowly as the Son of God, in a hovel; reared, in penury, squalor, with no gleam of light nor fair surrounding; it was reserved for this strange being, late in life, without name or fame or preparation, to be snatched from obscurity, raised to supreme command at a supreme moment, and intrusted with tho dentiny of a nation. Where did Shakspeare get his genius? Where did Mozart get his music? Whose hand smote the lyre of the Scottish plowman and staid the life of the German priest? God, alone, and, as surely as these were raised up by God, inspired of God, was Abraham Lincoln; and a thousand years hence no story, no tragedy, no epic poetn will be filled with greater wonder than that which tells of his life and death. If Lincoln was not inspired of God then there is no such thing on earth as special providence or the interpositiou of divine power in the affairs of men. Work the Gnoi Themaelve*. • Atlanta Constitution: It is stated in your paper that Gen. Longstreet was the only corps commander of our war who eyer trained and fired a cannon at the enemy. I have no desire to gainsay this statement, but I may be permitted to add this much to it: During the campaign in Maryland in 18R2 I was with Gen. Wade Hampton, who subsequently became commander of Gen. Lee's cavalry, a corps of itself. In one of our battles in that State, while we were being hard pressed by the infantry of the Federals, I saw Gen. Hampton dismount from his horse and personally work at one of the guns in Pelham's famous artillery. He not only assisted in ramming down the double charge of grape and cannister, but he ran to the breach of the gun wheA it was ready for the firing, and it was he who aimed it* fire. During the time I was a private soldier holding the General's horse at the wheels of the gun. I remember distinctly not only the General's words on the occasion, but I remember also well that the shots fired checked the advance of the enemy and saved the day to the Confederate troop/i Gen Hampton is alive and at our last conversation had a very vivid memory of the thrilling and bloody eve*t. On a subsequent occasion he held sny horse while I was engaged in "working a gun" in efforts to keep the enemy at bay until relief came to our assistance. J have no desire to appear conspicuous In a ay event, but whU« honor* are going, I should like to inquire if there i* yet living another private Confederate soldier who hat the honor of having had a General of cavalry to hold hit horse during an act of battle before the the ejaemy. Respectfully, W. V. M. Lincoln'! Factor Mother. Abraham Lincoln waa 7 or 8 yean old when his father, Thomas Lincoln, removed from Kentucky to Indiana, where, in a year or two his wife died. The year following her death, says a a writer in the Christian U nion, Mr. Lincoln returned to Elizabethtown to search out, if possible, a former neighbor, and friend, Mrs. Sally Johnson, whom, upon inquiry, he found still a widow, and to whom he at once made a proposal of marriage. On entering Mrs. Johnson's humble dwelling, Mr. Lincoln asked if she remembered him. "Yes," replied she, "I remember you very well, Tommy Lincoln. What has brought you back to old Kentucky ?" "Well," said he, "my wife Nancy is dead." "Why, you don't say so 1" "Yes," said Mr. Lincoln, "she died more than a year ago, and I have come back to Kentucky to look for another wife. Do you like me, Mrs. Johnson?" "Yes," replied Mrs. Johnson, "I like you, Tommy Lincoln." "Do you like me well enough to marry me ?" "Yes," she answered, "I like you, Tommy Lincoln, and I like you well enough to marry you, but I can't marry you now." "Why not?" said he. "Because I am in debt, and I could never think of burdening the man I marry with debt; it would not be right." "What are those debts?" said he, ,, She told him of the sums, "which," said she, "I have all down here in my account-book." On looking it over, he saw that her debts ranged from 50 cents to $1.25, and amounted in the gross to something less than twelve dollars—not a very startling sum even in those data of small things.

Mr. Brokaw moved his household goods to Howell last week and will occupy the Gregory house on Piety hill. His office is of course in the Court house, where he can be found at his post of duty. In Search of His Stolen Daughter. With a band of gypsies that has been camping in different parts of the country this fall is a bright little white child wrho claims to have been stolen by the banel, and is believed, by the sheriff of Alpena county, to be lit tie Ahna Neering, who mysteriously disappeared from her home in Alpena county, four years ago. The sheriff, with the father of the lost child, are looking for the gang, but up to date have been unable to locate them. They were near Utica a short time ago, but 'at present their whereabouts are unknown.— Ex. Wedding: Bells. The marriage of Miss Kitt.ie Gay nor to Mr. Dan. Stewart, both'of Hamburg, was celebrated Wednesday, December 28th, 1892, at the residence of Mr. James VanHorn. The ceremony was performed by Rev. W. G. Stephens, after which th« wedding dinner was served. Friends from Chicago, Ann Arbor, Howell, and ether places came tD witness the marriage and to offer tjie happy young couple tbeir congratulations. The bride received majiy handsome and useful presents. They left on the Toledo & Ann Arbor roaa for their honeymoon trip. m m >i Important Change. Prof. Mark B.

On Sunday evening last a farmer and his wife, named Leech living near Durand, were attacked by the hired man and left for dead. He lured tbe farmer to the barn and there struck him wif.b an axe and cut him in a horrible manner. Leaving him for dead he returned to the house where he shot Mrs. Leech in tue neck with a shot gun and pounded her in a most brutal manner. He then searched the house and secured somewhere near $40. Mr. and Mrs. Leech were not found until Monday morning although the deed was done a little after 6 o'clock, Sunday night according to Mrs. Leech statement. Both were alive when found but Mr. Leech connot live. Hopes are entertained for the recovery of Mrs. L9ecb. Indignation is high in Durand, and should the brute be found he will probably not cost the county ranch for trial. The Way They Do it in Kentucky. One day last week, before court adjournei for dinner, a mob of 1000 armed men took Sam Harper, a negrc; who assaulted Miss Anderson a few nights before, from the officers at the courthouse. The nepro was hustled toward the suberbs/ surrounded by the mob. On reaching the fair ground the oegro was told tu say his prayers. A rope was placed around his neck, and he was soon swinging from the limb of a tree. The mob, after firing a volley into the body of Harper, left it hanging, and dispersed.—Ex. Perhaps if assaulters and murderers were treated that way here once in a while we would have less crime of this kind. Took Paris Green. On Friday evening last, Mrs. Julia Fiske, living in the southwest part of Putnam, attempted suicide by taking a quantity of Paris green. Prompt medical assistance relieved her of the poison, and she is now convalescent. Mrs. Ftske suffered from mental dis ease a number of years ago, and for time was an inmate of the Kalamazoo asylum, and the present attack is prob ably a return of the old malady. She is an estimable woman, and all wil wish her a speedy restoration to health Murder Near >Toyi. The little hamlet of Novi, in Oakland county, was thrown into the wildest excitement on the 29th by the murder of Sumner Bathrick, a farmer living half a mile from the village by his son Gay, a boy of 20. Mrs Bathrick was away from home, tbe father had prep ared supper and was eating when the boy returned from hunting. The two quarreled, about what has not as yet transpired, Gay threatened bis father with a knife, dropped it, siezed his rifle, and fired three shots in rapid succession, all of which took effect. The unfortunate man is mortally wounded, all three shots having passed through his bodj. Tue boy eajled in the neighbors, summoned three doctors, then went to the village marshal! and gave himself up. —Farmer. Local Dispatches. Write it 1893! Now for a coasting party. N. E.

The state board of canvassers has issued certificates of election to all thii successful candidates. Atty.-Gen. Ellis is the only Democrat who pulled through, his plurality being a little over 1,300. Hainbitzer's plurality is reduced to 14,7*0 on account of errors in Muskcgon county, 3,8^8 votes having1 been rejected because they read "J. B. Hanibitxer" instead of "J. h\ liambitzer." The final figures areas follows: John T,* Kich, governor, 16,000 plurality; J. W. Uiddiugs, lieuteoant-goveruor, 21,- 647; J. W. Joclviui, secretary of state, 21,y«0; J. F.

Hooker, justice supreme court, 182. it is thought that neither Shaffer nor Newton will contest the election further, the expense of such action being very great. Another very important result was announced. The last legislature, it will be remembered, passed a resolution submitting to the people a proposition to call a constitutional convention, Many previous attempts to revise the fundamental law had been made, but always without success. It has been ascertained by the official canvass that the electors of the state of Michigan do want such a convention; at least KVJ4S of them do. Only 10,245 registered negative votes, while out of some 4U(j,000 people who voted on state officers, only 3d, 192 cared a rap one way or the other. The incoming1 legislature will fix the time uud the place for the convention. It is probable that there will be a general overhauling and correcting of the old constitution and doubtless many persons with Utopian schemes wi}l seek to incorporate them in his articles. The only changes certain to be adopted are those relating to salaries of state officers. Land Office htuslnesg. Commissioner of the State Land Office Shaffer, in his annual report says the whole number of acres of land held by the state at the beginning of the year was 483,11J5,129; number of acres forfeited during the year for non-payment of taxes, 1,,J48 11; acres restored to market heretofore licensed to homesteaders, 7,7'.i2.O7; acres patented to the state by the United States, 8f>0; total, 493,23-V*0!>.

Tot:U receipts of the office for the year were W1.K42.0O. The settlement of the swamp land grant has been delayed 3D years and there jret remains 1,000,000 acres unpatcnted. Novel Suit Ajrsiiiint the fJovornment. James Fitzgibbons, an Ironwood insurance agent, will bring a novel suit against the government. Last spring, when a large tract of public land was opened for entry in Michigan and Wisconsin, he filed a claim, and also made extensive preparations to improve the property. Sometime ago he was informed that a mistake had been made, the land for which he applied and which was given him, having been owned by another man for several years. Fitzgibbons will now sue the government for all expenses he sustained, besides asking heavy •damages. 'Charles H. Sutliff, who has been in the millinery and dry goods business in Lansing city for nearly 30 ^jears, has sold out to George M. Dayton, also of Lansing, and will retire.

Miss Becky Effiey, of Constantine, poured a cupful of gasoline into a boiler of clothes upon the stove. The heat caused the gasoline to explode and Becky was seriously burned about the head and face. A GREAT ENTERPRISE. A Hii|i Wheel for Viewing tbe World'* Fair Qrouuda to be built Ut Detroit. One of Detroit's big manufacturing establishments has secured the contract for the biggest novelty to be seen at the World's Fair. The Detroit bridge and iron works will construct the Ferris wheel which is to be built by Chicago and Pittsburg capitalists. These capitalists have agreed to pay the World's Fair company $400,000 for the privilege of operating the wheel. The Detroit bridge and iron works is to receive $300,000 for building the wheel, which makes an investment of 8700,000 for the company. The size of the wheel is tremendous. It is to be constructed of iron and is 250 feet diameter. It is to revolve on a shaft resting ou two towers, each of which are to be over 125 feet high. The circumference of the wheel is to be a series of cages arranged for the accommmodations of passengers. When the wheel revolves the passenger is gradually raised from the ground to a hight of 250 feet in the air. This will afford a magnificent view of the exposition grounds and Chicago. The wheel will be turned by electricity. There will be seating capacity for 2,150 people. THE WIFE WAS WRONGED. lieiug Sued for » Divorce Under Cruel She liecomei* Iutw*no. The famous divorce ease of Henry Van Voorheis vs. Florence Van Vooheis which attracted so much attention in Grand Rapids some months ago was disposed of in the supreme court at Lansing. Van Voorheis sued for a divorce, alleging cruelty, and finally amended his bill, setting up 17 distinct charges of adultery. Daring the progress of the trial Mrs. Van Voorhies lost her reason and was taken to the Kalamazoo asylum. Upon her recovery the trial proceeded and Van Voorhies was given a decree. In an opinion written by Chief Justice McGrath, the supreme court finds that the testimony of the hired witnesses, upon which the decree was granted, is worthless and not only sets aside the decree but grants Mrs. Van Voorhies' cross bill, giving her a divorce with cost of both courts and $200 solicitor's fee. In addition to this the record is remanded to the circuit court for the allowance of alimony. AROUND THE STATE. Private Albert L. Gage, Company B, Nineteenth infantry, Fort Brady, is discharged. A Jarge cheese factory will bo built in the vicinity of Prospect lake early next spring. An American bittern, a rare bird for Michigan, was shot at West Adrian a few days ago. Thomas Welch, charged with forging a note for §150 at Bay Vity, is under arrest at Saginaw. The syndicate owning Isle Royale will keep 40 men at work there all winter exploring for ore. It is said the Grand Trunk will spend 84,000,000 in new rolling stock to carry passengers to the World's Fair. During the World's Fair the Goodrich line will probably run three steamers between Grand Haven and Chicago. - The Michigan association of master house painters and decorators will hold its sixth annual convention in Hay City, .January 17.

Bay City and West Bay City report that the cold, clear weather recently has almost wiped out Jthe diphtheria epidemic that has been raging there. During the past week very few cases have been reported, and they of a mild type. Michigan horticulturists met for their twenty-second annual convention at Lansing. Mayor Doty welcomed them and President T. T. Lyon gave his address. A general discussion followed. Meetings were held three days. A fatal accident occurred in Leroy township, Calhoun county, in which Alpheus C Minor was shot by his brother Clarence. The charge entered the thigh and resulted in almost instant death. Minor was but recently married. One of the most important recommendations made to Gov. Winans by the state board of corrections and charities is in regard to a new asylum for the feeble-minded. They show that all the present institutions are overcrowded, and that patients are hold in county jails all over the state because of it, seriously inte.rferring with their chances of recovery and improvement. PIVF W E B B KILLED. LOOK* DARK FOR FRANCETHREE BARREL8 OP DYNAMITE EXPLODE AT A TUNNEL. Five Killed, Score* Injured and ThouMUidt of DollMm Worth of Damns* Dons—A Dyuaintte Bomb Thrown in Htreet Car Cau»e Great J^OM at Milwaukee. Five Killed Many Injured. Three barrels of dynamite exploded at the mouth of the shaft of the East Kiver tunnel at Loug Island City, Five or more lives were lost, scores of persons were injured and thousands of dollars of damage done. Just in the rear of a row of tenements, Nos. 21, 23, 25, 27 and 2!) Jackson avenue, Lung Island City, is the entrance to a tunnel that the New York City <Sc Long Island Tunnel company is putting uuder the East River between Loug Island City and the New York Central depot. They use u great deal of dynamite in blasting und the night before the dynamite froze. Wheu the gang of men started to work in the morning they found it would be necessary to thaw the dynamite out, and taking three barrels of cartridges from the stock, placed them just back of .the tenements to be thawed. They built a booming tire beside them and the tire and dynamite were left alone uutil the 'riO men, comprising the gang, went down into the tunnel shaft. The tire burned nearer the dynamite than had been supposed it would and an hour later there was an explosion that scattered death and destruction around it. The shock was like an earthquake. The men in the tunnel shaft were not hurt. The persons living in the tenements made up the killed and injured. The tenements from 21 to 29 were shattered, with the stores and offices below. The postoffice was in 27. The letter cases were knocked into strips and the clerks were hurled headlong into the debris. The scene following the explosion was terrible. Men, women and children only partially clad rushed wildly from every possible exit in the greatest excitement, screaming loudly. The district where the explosion occurred is the most thickly inhabited section. For half a mile Jackson and Vernon avenues present a peculiar sight. Hardly an unbroken pane of glass can be found within that radius. Gray's refrigerator factory on Fourth street, opposite the scene of the explosion, was almost entirely wrecked. A number of people were at work in the building at the time, but how many of them were.injured it is not at present known. Much other damage was done. Dynamiters and F A bomb was thrown into the main building of the south side plant of the Milwaukee, Wis., street railway company. There was a tremendous explosion and in a moment the interior of the building was in a blaze. The deed was done ut 2 o'clock in the morning. In a few minutes the fire was beyond control und in less than an hour the entire plant was consumed, entailing u loss of £*> 10,000. The street railway company's south side plant is located on Kinnickinnic Ave. It included the immense storage stables for electric motors, the machine shops and stables. In the burn were "iO new electric motors und nearly all the .summer cars owned by the company. The machine shops were built the past season and were fitted with very tine machinery for the rebuilding and repairing of cars. In the stables were 00 horses, but these, were got out alive. The cars stored in the building were valued at $,15.*>0.000, while the structure itself is worth at least 800,000. The machinery is valued at fully £75,000, while the stores of the company are kept in the building and were worth $2">,ii00. The insurance carried was on the building and amounts to $40,000, The l.arns which were destroyed were the principal depot of the street railway company, and the fire greatly cripples the company. Who the man is who threw the bomb is not known. He is supposed to be the firebug who has started fully a dozen other disastrous tires within a month, including the great fire at the Wisconsin Central yards and the more recent tannerv fire. A Columbus Fountain Unveiled. The magnificent Columbus fountain, the gift of John li. Drfike, of the Grand Pacitic hotel, to the city of Chicago has been formally turned over to the municipal authorities. The exercises were held in the city council chamber, where Mayor Washburne made a graceful and eloquent address. Quite a crowd stood at the Washington street side of the city hall and saw the red, white and blue covering pulled away that veiled the fine heroic bronze figure of Columbus—the most conspicuous feature of the memorial. The speech for the donor was made by Thomas H. Bryan, vice-president of the World's Fair. The Unemlea of the Oov^rameat Trying ! Kill the Beimblie, That there are serious times ahead for the republic of Franoe cannot be denied. The expose of the great Panama canal scandal has precipitated such a storm about the heads of the government leaders that they scarce know what steps to take. Over 100 members of the chamber of deputies are implicated in the bribery cases and the rottenness of the official world reaches almost to the president's chair. The scenes in the chamber of deputies are as stormy as that country, (which has seen so much internal strife) has ever been culled upon to witness. Each day those in opposition to the republic bring out some new criticism upon the government and its adherents until it became a matter of doubt if the ministry could stand. After a very llery day of oratorical pyrotechnics M. Millevoye, of the opposition, called for a vote of no confidence in the chamber of deputies and there was a very decided movement on the part of tbe government members to evade the vote, but it was finally taken and lost, thus sustaining M. liibot and the cabinet. This will doubtless bring a great many uncertain people to the side of the government, but does not alter the fact that the opposition are also strengthening" their forces in many ways. The lionapartists are stepping to the front to take advantage of the difficulties of the republic. The activity of the Royalists aroused the jealousy of the impearialist leaders and at a secret conclave they drafted a manifesto addressed to the people of Franoe, urging to recall the house of Jtonaparte to the throne. This manifesto awaits the approval of Prince Victor, the present recognized head of the ex-imperial family. Prince Victor is now in Brussels and the lionapartist leaders in Paris Lave sent agents to that city to induce him to sign the manifesto and authorize its publication. 8hould the lionapartists act, it is expected that they will attempt to strike a blow in Paris, rather than in the provinces. They, like the Monarchists, are being gradually watched, and every movement is reported to M. Ribot and President Carnot. Not so much importance is attached by the authorities to Bonapartist as to Monarchist agitation. The ancient royal house has still a large following in the provinces, as shown during the recent visit of the countess of Paris to France, when hundreds thronged to kiss her hand and she was received at various places with all the loyalty and honor that could be shown to a queen. This following could easily be aroused into a formidable demonstration that would cost much trouble to suppress, and the royalist cause would receive the sympathy of hundreds of thousands of swindled Panama stockholders. Suit in The Kansas state board of railroad commissioners has announced its decision in the Hutchinson salt case, holding that it was powerless to protect the salt companies against the competition of Michigan salt. The allegation that the railroads charged lower rates on Michigan salt to Kansas joints than they charge on Kansas salt *o the same points, the board says, is true, but as most of the roads which are complained of in the petition do not touch llutchinson, they cannot be compelled to make a joint tariff on Kansas salt with the two or three, roads which do. Further, the board savs it does not want to be a parly to barring Michigan salt from the Kansas market, which would be done if it should reduce the rate on Hntchinson salt below outside competition. Scarlet Fever lu Mio White Houn«*. Little Martena Harrison, the Presidents five-year-old granddaughter, is ill at the White House. Her ailment, which was at first supposed to be scarletina, has developed into a genuine case of scarlet fever. It is of mild type, however, and will undoubtedly yield to treatment. The two McKce children are reported as being beyond danger of contagion. The "White House is closed to the public and will probably remain sa until it is again free from disease. Medical Sanitary Inspector Dr. C. •!. Osmun tacked two signs on the doors. The signs are pink-colored pasteboard and on them is printed: "To remove this placard without permission is unlawful." "Scarlet fever within." A plan to make a state of the upper peninsula and a section of Wisconsin is being discussed at Kscanaba and in other cities in the mining region. The section is strongly Republican and a Democratic congress would undoubtedly oppose any such scheme. The union ex-prisoners of war was in session at Lansing. They participated in a big campfire. Among the speakers were Mayor Bement, Chaplain J. S. Preston, of Lyons; J. L. Richards, of Perrinton; Judge A. E. Cowles, of Lansing; Norm G. Cooper, of Sturgis; Miss Emma J. Metcalf, of Fowlerville; Mrs. Cordelia A. Preston, of Lyons, and others. Charles I. Foster post tendered the visitors a banquet at Q. A. R. hall. Big- Fire—Two Men Killed. An incendiary fire started in one of the wooden additions of the tannery of the Becker leather company on Commerce street, Milwaukee. The flames spread to the tannery of Conrad Bros, adjoining and that establishment was entirely destroyed. The main building of the Becker plant was waved. A pipeman named Thomas Sullivan was killed by a falling wall and Geo. Rickmann of the fire patrol, was suffocated in the Conrad tannery. Julius Huebner, a fireman, had his back broken and other firemen were«lightly hurt. The loss by the tire will foot up $225,000, of which $100,000 is on the Becker tannery and S12.">,(h)0 on that of Coni'ad Brothers. The property was well insured. Dynamite In the Stnvewoort, "When the kitchen firetwas lighten! in Andrew Bicker s farm house near Valparaiso, Ind., there was a violent oxplosion. The house was virtually wrecked. Mrs. Bickel and her two children were severely injured. The explosion . was caused by dynamite, which had been secreted in a stick of stove wood.

The ooruer-stone of the Cathedral church of S t John tbe Diviue was laid in New York City by Rt. Rev. Henry C. Potter, D. D., D. C. L., of the Episcopal diocese of New York. The site of the cathedral is'on West One Hundred and Tenth street and com* mundti a fine view of the Hudson river and many miles of city and country surrounding. It is in the center of district rapidly filling up wit residences. In addition, Columbia col lege und St. Luke's hospital hav lately decided to remove to this neighborhood. The scope of the cathedral, as enunciated by Bishop Potter, was declared to bo that of a church fo the peopltj—all people-—and his ai ban been kept constantly in view in six years of work which culmina in the laying of the cornematone." the first step in the work of actual con* struction. The cathedral will include seven "chapels of tongues," in each of which will be a service at least every Sunday in seven languages. The sittings in the cathedral are to be forever free. The bishop of New York is to be I president of its chapter. The land for its site was purchased for 8850,000 and has since doubled in value. The cost of the structure is estimated at fsom $8,000,000 to 310,000,000. The entire structure will measure 520 feet in length and will have thrpe square towers, the main tower being at the* junction of the nave and transepts. The ceremonies were witnessed by an immense throng which filled and surrounded the temporary cruciform tent over the foundation. In the cornerstone was placed a large pewter box containing church books and publications and a. brick from the first church built in America, the church erected by Columbus in 1493 on the Island of Ilispaniola. Hatolli CMUSCH rt Split in the Vatican. There are all sorts of conradictory reports in the air in regard to Mgr. Satollis mission and the course which the pope will adopt. According to what may be called the Archbishop Ireland group his holiness will support the envoy uuresewedly. The opponents of the archbishop's ideas, on the other hand, are discountenancing Mgr. Satolli's prompt recall. The Vatican alone is silent. Entire Family AnphrxUted. A family named Rasmussen, living five miles west of Bradley, S. D., was asphyxiated by coal gas.

At that time Captain Darvill was alone ia tbe room. You and he must have met. What passed between you is best known to yourself. Hair an hour later 'you are back at tbe station with a wound on your forehead, which you account for on the score of an accident." Ivor sprang to bis feet; but Enna held uf her band, and be read something fu her face which induced him to sit dowD again without speaking. "Is it not possible—mind, in this I am simply asking a question—ia it not possible. I say, that by some means to us unknown Roden Bosworth may have become aware of your visit to the smoking room, so that, when Captain Darvill's body was found he may ave drawn the inference that his eatb was the result of some quarrel between you and him. and. rather than allow the crime to fix itself on you may he not have taken it and all its consequences on his t own shoulders? Of such , an action. Quixotic as it may seem to some people. I believe Kodon Boaworth to be fully capable," Ivor sat and stared at her in speechless amazement. For a moment his brain was dazzled and could comprehend nothing clearly in the intensely vivid light which his sister's words bad thrown on the mystery of Darvill's death. Enoa. turned to Mra Posworth. ••You are h's mother/' she Baid; "he may have told you that which he has kept from every one else. Here, in my brother s presence, 1 ask you was it for hi9 sake that your son took on himself tho crime of which tho world adjudges him to be guilty r ••It was for the sake of Mr. Ivor Penleath, that ray BDU did what he did." "Ah!" oveiaimed Knna. softly, with an in-drawing of her broalh. while her face lighted up^s with a sudden burst of sunlight* "Tk&t i was nut in ia taken in him!'1 "And. do you mean to say that Roden Bosworth did this thing for my sake?" demanded Ivor, hi* face a etuJy of combined amazement and perplexity. ••And for ray sake, perhaps, a litt l a " whispered Knna to net-self. •For your sake, Mr. Ivor," camo In grave assent from the mother. ••It's the most utterly astonishing thing I ever heard of." He rose, crossed to the window, stood there for a few moments, and then went baok to his chair. "But*" he went on. "I am still at a loss to understand what it was that ' induced Roaworth to believe that it was at my hand Darvill had come to his death, and that, by drawing suspicion on himself, he would be the means of diverting it from me," Eona turned inquiring eyes upon Mrs. Bo9worth. , "I will tell you all I know of the affair exactly as my son told me." responded the latter. "But first of all 1 must remark that the particulars I am about to relate only became known to me about a week before I left England. Previously to that tiiie all I knew was that Koden had alJbw-ed himself, for reasons of his [n, to be charged with a crime of lich he wa9 wholly guiltless; and jitb that knowledge I was obliged to £ e s t satisfied. « ,m "1 am not worthy of it, Mrs. Boa- \ worth, " cried Ivor, passionately, tho fc«lpmeot she had come to the end of hefc narrative "No. by heaven, I am o.ot worthy of such a sacrifice on the part of any one!'1 Never in his Jife bad bo been so moved, Aa for Miss Penleath. she flung her arms around the elder woraun1* neck and kissed her again and again, winding up by bursting into » passion of teats. It was a strange proceeding on the part of the young lady who, as a rule» was a contemner of tears and averse from sentimental displays of any kind. To all appearance Mrs, Bosworth was the most unmovod of the three. For a littlo while uo one 9poke: then Ivor cleared his voice and said: '•Evidently, it now devolves on me to relate what passed betweon myself and Darvill on the night of his death. Aa i remarked before, after reaching tbe station 1 discovered that I had left behind me a private letter of muob importance, together with a miniature in a case.'1 Hefe his •warthy obeek flushed for a. moment "Not oaring to be seen after I had bidden everybody good-by. which would bave involved an explanation that would have been dittasteful to me, I left my ny to wait for me ia Buttercup Lane, scrambled through tbe hedge, orossed the lower meadow, leaped tbe ha-ha, and made my way to the conservatory, judging that I should find the door not yet fastened for tbe night and so be able to reach tbe smoking-room without being seen. I had judged rightly, the door opened to a y hand. The portiere which draped the archway had not been fully drawn, thus enabling me to see that the room beyond was lighted up as if already occupied or presently to be so. I knew that my uncle bad been called away to see a sick tenant but it seemed not unlikely that JJarvilL Bosworth. or both of them. might have gone there for the solace of a weed Advancing quickly, I drew the portiere a little further aside, and then halted for a moment before going forward. What I saw was Darvill in the act of reading the letter I had come in search of, while on the table close by lay the miniature, face downward. Almost before i had time to taKe in the scene, he turned the page he had been reading and began on the other side. There was a sneer on his face that maddened me even more than tbe fast of nis reading the letter. I h e next instant he looked up and our eyes met. My blood was fired to the point of frenzy. 1 sprang forward, and, while witli one hand I snatched the letter from him. with the opeu palm of the other I smote him on the face, applying to him at the same time one or two epithets which he richly deserved. The next instant he made a rush at me and felled me to the ground with a blow just above the left eye. A moment later I was on my feet and had closed with him. In the struggle that ensued the lamp was over-turned. Darvill was a much bigger and stronger man than L but I know all the tricks of the Westmoreland wrestlers, and in loss than a dozou seconds he was floundering on his back. All I wanted was to get away. Without waiting for Datvill to rise. I snatched up the miniature—the letter I had already— made a hurried exit by the way I had come, re oined my fly, and goc back to the station in time to catch t ie 11 o'clock train for Liverpool. The wound over my eye was caused by Davvill's rinj?. Finally. I may mention that I have a distinct recollection of seeing the Indian dapger with which you stated ,usl now. Darill is supposed to have been murdered. It waslyinsrou the centre table as if it had been taken down to look at as any other curio might have been, and had not been replaced." Ivor ceased, and the three sat mute for a littlo while, each thinking over what the others had said, fitting ttie links of the different narrative-! one into tho other, and striving to deduct therefrom a coherent whole. Mrs. Rodworth was the first to speak. "And now what is to boeome of my poor boy?" she asked. "We all know now under what a mistaken impression ho acted, but the question that remains is, by what meefhs is that mistake to be remedied?" ••Which question, " said Ivor. "naturally resolves itself into another. Who was tho real murderor of Vivian Darvill?" We must at once return to Kngland." said Knnn. "hodon must be seen and everything told b >th to him and to 1'nolo »-odftvy. After that"—• bho paused and looked at Ivor. "After that." ho said, "we must set the cleverest detective brains in England to work on the mystery. No expense, no effort must be spared. On the face of it, as the case now standa it would seem as if revenge must have been the motive which instigated tho crime. Darvill must have had a secret enemy, and our first object must be to have that enemy traced.1' •You will go back with us to England, Ivor?" said his sistor, entreatin gly. He started at her question, awhile staring at her, but conscious recognition in his sort of frowning hesitancy expressing itself on his face. HJS sister's question had turned his thoughts with a wrench into an altogether different channel. After sitting thus a little while, he said abruptly: "Yes, I will go back with you. and the sooner we got away the better I shall bo pleased." CHAPTER XIV. The Pity of I t Ten days later a cab drove up to the door of No.—Rloomsbury street W. C from which three people alighted. They wore Miss Penleath. her brother, and Mrs. Bosworth. In answer to their inquiries, they were told that tho Rev. Mr. (labor was not at home, but that he misjht return at any moment: accordingly, at their rt:- que«»t the visitors were shown upstairs into the reverend ge itlemaa/s sitting-room. When Koden Bosworth, greatly wondering, opened the door of his sitting-room and halted for a moment on tho threshold. Ivor Peuloath. to whom no mention had been made of his disguise, sprang to his feet and stared at him with something of perplexity and more of amazement Of the scene that followed it i9 not needful thai wo should speatc in detail. plensant though it might be to do so. Roden's astonishment when told that Penleath was no more reaponsible for Darvill's death than he himself waa was something not readily to be forgotten. He had •aorittoed himself to save some unknown murderer. It was a thought which seemed to •ear his brain as with a red hot iron, but only for a little while. In the eyes 6f Enna that afternoon he read, full and nlear, what heretofore had only been, as it were, a half-deciphered hieroglyphlo. Now love stood unveiled before him and was not abashed. The great problem of all still re inained unsolved, and after so long tv t me. and without a single scrap of evidence to form the basis of a clew there seemed small hope indeed that the real murderer of Vivian Darvill would ever be dragged int > the light of day. And should that prove to be the case, what likelihood was there of Koden Bos worth being uble to clear his name from the foul btigmu which must otherwise cling t.) it as long as he lived? Till the last day of his life he would remain a hunted felon, liviu'g under a false name, lost to his home, his friends, and all that makes life sweet to un innocent man [TO BE CONTINUED. J BRIDLINOTON'S WELL. Con«NJer»U"» household necessity." Mr. A. J. Whiting. Newton, Kansas, accentuate* hi* opinion thus: and sat With no eyos, a It Ehhn anil Flow* HH Ktigularly an Does the Tli<-. Among Johuny Bull's oddities none are more peculiar than the well at liridlington, which ebbs and Hows as regularly as does the tide. It is situated on the very edge of the harbor, within high-water maic The bottom of the harbor is formed of a bed of clay. through which the well-diggers bored to the gravel bed below. When this task had been accomplished a tinned copper pipe was put into the cavity, the sides of the opening being thus properly secured. Since the day it was finished the well has regularly given a free and wonderful exhibition. When the tide rises to within about fifty inches of its mouth, the water from tho well which, by the way. is perfectly fresh, begins to overliow. the quantity of the Uow increasing as the tide rises, and continuing until the water recedes to a distance of as much or more than tho fifty inches. During storms, or whenever the sea shows any unusual agitation, the water flows from the well in jets or miniature wave* seeming to imitate in a feeble way tho lashing of the whitecaps. Several explanations have been attempted, but only one, that of Mr. Milne, has been con idered as tenable by the scientific societies. He accounts for tho How in this wise: The whole bay. he believes, has a. cl*ty bottom. The water between tho clay and tho rocks can flow out nowhoio except at the shelving termination of tho clay bed. which, of course, is under the SOJU As the tido rise-i in the harbor the obstruction to this mode of escape oT tho water will increase. Hence less will make its way below tho clay, tho residue being forced buck by tiio waves and out of tho iuouih=*t**~tue^\vell. Tho yiymtvry Solved. Not half a lifetime ago a wealthy Now Yorker, who d ed recently, nursed from his picture gallery two small but very valuable canvases. He suspected everybody in the house. It was said at the time thai lie accused one of his sons, who was a little wild, of having stolen tho pictures in order to raise on tnem money which his father had refused him for his o^travaganco. However, tho facts remained a mystery for some years. Then an expressman delivered a package at tho banker's door, in it were the missing p ctures. intact, as they had been taken from thoir frames. There was no mark or sign upon thorn or the package to denote tho source from whence their restoration proceeded. The owner was as curious now as he had been furious be fora He set a detective on the matter. The pictures were traced backward, through the express office to the widow of one of the owner's most intimato and trusted fr.ends. This man, him-elf a millionaire, crazed liy cupidity, for he was a collector of picturos himself, had stolen them one night after he had dine! with the.r owner. Finland'* Folk-Lore society.

ILL FIRST-CUS S WORK 6DMMTEED . • » • * * HOWEL L MICH . U»r lUgaUr Washington , Jan . 5, 1893. A first-class politica l sensatio n in the midst of th e quiet enjoyment s of t b ^ holiday s is some- FOR MEATS, , FISH , ETC., AMD FOB BAKINti BREAD, CAKES AND PUDDINGS , thin g tha t Washington seldom gets, but it bad it thi s week; and notwithstandin g th e absence of man y of those whose presenc e would have added to its intensit y it was, and is yet, quit e excitin g enoug h for those who take pleasure in politica l flurries, and most men do. Although it was generally known tha t Mr. Clevelan d was oppose d to th e electio n of Mur - phy, th e Hill-Tamman y candidat e for Unite d State s Senato r from New York, it was supposed tha t his electio n was a sure thing , and tha t Mr. Clevelan d would conside r it good policy to keep his hand s off. Th e explosion of a dynamit e bomb on a crowded thoroughfar e would not , therefore , have create d mor e excitemen t amon g th e passersby tha n Mr. Cleveland' s newspape r interview did amon g th e politician s when it was received here . The flat-footed sland Mr. Cleveland takes in tha t interview against the electio n of Murph y to th e Senate is regarde d ter e as a direc t challeng e t o Senato r Hil l an d Tamman y for a fight to the death . Opinio n diffeis as to whethe r it will elect or defeat Murphy . Some say tha t the democrati c member s of the New York legislature will accep t it as a notic e tha t a vote for Murph y will shut the m out from the federal flesh-pot s and tha t enough of them will desert Murph y to brin g about his defeat; others , tha t it will be -an attemp t on the part of Mr. Clevelan d to interfer e with state politics, and will cause Murph y to be elected to a certainty . They last clinch thei r argument s by citin g the disastrou s lesult of Presiden t Arthur' s attemp t to make Folgei' governor of New York. Whatever its result may be, its promulgatio n at this time stiows tha t M . Cleveland is not afraid of Senato r Hil l and Tammany . Representativ e Hoi man, who is known to Congressiona l fame as "the gieat objector, " and as "the watch-do g of the Treasury, " is a firm believer in the ultimat e commercia l unio n of the entir e Arneiican continent , TV hat he mean s by commercia l unio n is tha t the trad e between every natio n in. America should be as free as tha t which now exists bttweeir thestates of our Union , and tha t a unifor m tariff upo n article s from othe r part s of the world should be adopte d by all of the America n nations . He/predict s tha t th e idea WLI be carrie d out within the next thirty-year s in its entiret y and tha t one tariff will be in effect from Alaska to Cap e Horn . Mr . Holma n says he can see no good reason why Canad a and Mexico should not now have such a commercia l unio n with the Unite d States . Mr. Holman' s opinion s are always entitle d to respect , and they usually get it, but in this case the open endorser s are few; likewise the open opponents . In fact the questio n is regarde d as one tha t may becom e of great politica l importanc e in the nea r future , and the average politicia n is ro t anxious to express an opinio n unti l he has ascertaine d the tren d of popula r sentiment . The Hous e Ways and Mean s committe e favors the repea l of the sugar bount y law, and it is probable tha t th e committe e will make a favorable repor t on Representa - tive Scott. s bill providin g for its repeal . Representativ e Scot t claims tha t a canvass he has mad e of the Hous e and Senat e shows tha t th e bill will pass, but other s say tha t it will be impossible to get the bill throug h th e Senate , unless it be amende d so as to put a tax on foreign Bugar. Ther e is an impression , however, tha t if the bill gets to th e Senat e a numbe r of republica n senators ' who supporte d the bount y clause of the McKinle y tariff bill unde r compulsion will gladly vote for its repeal as a matte r of principle . The two Louisian a Senator s and Senator Peffer are expecte d to vote against repeal , unless thei r sugarraising constituent s are protecte d by a tax on foreign sugar, but no case is recalled of Congres s havitig restore d the tax on an articl e after having once taken it off, and preceden t always plays an influentia l part in Congressiona l legislation . A majorit y of th e Senat e committe e on Interstate , commerc e are said to favor th e ameudmen t to the interstat e commerc e law which was recentl y asked for by repre - sentative s of a numbe r of railroa d cornpauies , permittin g poolin g of freights but before such an amend - men t gets throug h Congres s ther e will be some very plain talk from those oppose d to railroa d pooling . Senato r Perkin s is in earnes t about pushin g his fdea of makin g a state out of IndnrfT ' Territory . He insists tha t it is the only equit - able and business-lik e solutio n of the India n problem , and says he believes ther e is a good chanc e for it to get throug h durin g thi s session. A gentlema n who seldom makes idle prediction s remarke d in my hearin g thi s mornin g tha t if Jerr y Simpson did not get electe d to the Senat e he would not be surprised to see him mad e Secretar y of Agriculture . When 1 attempte d to ascertai n his reason for saying so he shut up like a clam, and said he was not talkin g for publication .

However, if he were to foe eaujfht and strangled with the •tolen strahda, probably no complaint would be offered on behalf of justice. LONDON went daft over find one woman in the abounding ex- Ikberance of her idiocy threw herself »t his feet at the close of his farewell fthow. But the musician did not forfet that he was a gentleman. With •elf-sacrifice little short of heroic he refrained from stepping on the «reatura ._ THS feat of an 11-year-old boy in Washington, who has just shot his aged «nd innocent grandfather for a burglar, is particularly melancholy.

Atf ingenious youngster, very much the product of the century, has been Airing in public his doubt3 that this is really the year 1S92. His theory is that in the dark ages nobody paid particular attention to , chronology, »nd that years, and even centuries, may havo beea allowed to pass as mere unconsidered trifles. Canadians have their thinking caps on. They aro awake to the fact thai Canada has everything to gain, •nd nothing to lose by political union with the United States. The advantages to Canada in such a change »re\enfold greater than to the states It has dawned upon our oeisrhbora over the line that this laud of Uncle 0am will make no effort to annex Canada. It is a matter of small consequence to his people. Canada must do the proposing.

A few weeks ago when Benneau and Gallett had completed their opera founded on Zola's "L'attaque au Moulio." they found that the society costumes of 1871 were so hideous that they could not be put upon the stage. Rather than offend the eye by such an Inartistic setting they put the whole plot back to the war of 181.V. THE matter of American policy in respect of the reception of immigrants is now under discussion in a spirit different from any in which it has heretofore been approached. The present prominence of the subject grows out of the conditions developed during the cholera scare of last summer. We appeared to be in imminent danger then of importing a scourge with the steerage passengers of emigrant vessels, and safety appeared to be in temporary prevention of immigration, which was enforced by arbitrary measures. That fear has not subsided. Cholera •till lurks in the districts from which immigrants now chiefly come. Hence Inany favor an absolute restriction upon immigration for a year to come *« a necessary sanitary precaution, •specially necessary on account of the financial disaster which would overtake the world's fair if pestilence should •btaln foothold in the land. CHAPTER XII—CONTINUED. It waa at breakfast on the third morning after the party at ;Urswick that Enna announced her determination to her uncle. He btared at her in wide-eyed astonishment "I am most uneasy about Ivor.11 she wont on to say, "especially after what Lord Senlao told ua the other night He may be ill, be may have met with another accident, half a score of thing* rnay have Happened to him. And thou Lord Senlac hinted at some entanglement and that, if possible. Ivor oujjht to >*e induced to leave New York without delay. Indeed, what with one thing and another, I am most unhappy about him." "But, even if there were no other obstacle, it is quite out of the question that you should cross the Atlantic yourself," objected her uncla •i have thought of that. I will ask Mrs. Hosworth to accompany mo." "You could have no bettor person, if you have really made up your mind to go." # ••I have made up my mind, uncle." "In that case 1 will offor no further opposition, knowing- of old how useless it would be." He said this with a smile and a little shrug of resignation, and then held out his cup for more tea. Mrs. Bos worth responded to Enna1 a invitation as a matter of course. Had she been askel to accompany Miss "I remember the dagger well" said Ivor. Then he heaved a deep sigh —it might almost be called a sigh of relief—and the color began to oome back to bis cheeks. It may be that his sister's first words had Ailed htm with sudden dread lest DarviU'a death might in some way, have resulted from their struggle together. ;*As I said before" he went on, 'singular though such an assertion, nmy be, this is the first I have heard of i t I met with my accident a few hours after landing. I was laid up in the hospital for several weeks, and by the time I was out again, and oared to know what was going on in the world, I suppose the affair was over and done with, and had dropped out of the newspapers. In any case. I never saw a single paragraph bearing upon it Hut who was the murderer, and what could be his motive for such a crime?1' "The coroner's jury brought in a verdict of wil/ul murder against Koden HoswortK" "O—h!" it was a long-drawn ejaculation of utter incredulty. *To me this is more wonderful more utterly strange, than what you have told me of Durvill's death.

She was a quiet, solf possessed womaa with gray hair, very lino eyes and a voico that wad full of charm. Under her suave and even-toned manner worn hidden preat force of will and inflexibility of character. In the way of mental and moral training1 Enna Tenleath owed more to Mrs. liosworth than she was aware of. Of the voyage from London, to New York there is no need to record anything-. Although brimful of novelty to our two ladies, it was of tho usual stereotyped kind that warrants no description. On their arrival HSey "drove direct from tho custom house to the address given to Enna by Lord Senlac—a small suit of roDra* in an uptown Hat. furnished for bacholors only. Fortunately. Ivor happened to bo at home, and it would bo hard for a man to look more astonished than ho looked when his si.-iter and Mrs. you are heaping bility on another.'1 "I am but stating simple facts. It cannot be denied that, on the face of it the evidence tending to implicate Koden is of the gravest possible kind. Perhaps you would like to make yourself acquainted with it?" "I certainly should. The evidence would need to be very strong indeed which could make me believe for one moment in dear old Koden's guilt" Ennu's byes Hashed a tremulous look at her brother, which, however, he was at a loss to understand. In Mrs. Bosworth's reticule was an ordinary school copy-book in which she had gummed suadry newspaper accounts o/ "The Sandy corft Tragedy." This she had shown to Enna on the produced'it and handed it to Ivor Penleath. So far, Enna had put a powerful restraint upon her feelings and sternly excluding all sentimental considerations. She knew that she had taken Bosworth wore ushorod into his tiny i u u h e r s c l f " grave responsibility; how inucn of happiness or of li/o lon£ mis. ery to more than one person concerned might not result from that day'a interview with hor brother! But Ivor's profession of ignorance astounded her, although ho'himself was unconscious of their efl'ect upon her, (ould it bo possible that, after all, she was on an altogether wrontf track, and that Ivor really as ignorant as ho professed sitting-room. Ho seemed, however, j unfeignedly glad to see them. "And so Son lac's account of mo friffb toned you. did it Ennie, and you thought you would come and son for yourself howl was getting on?

Ivor Venleatn's Statement. In less than ton minutes Ivor had mastered the various details embodied in the newspaper slips handed him Boa worth. As negate them back he said; "This must have been a terrible trial for you to go through, Mrs. Bos worth, " ••Had I not been upheld by tho certainty of my boy's innocence, 1 should havo broken down long ago." she answered in the ^uiot tones habitual to her. ••Tho evidence notwithstanding, I, too, believe in his innocence aa lirmly as you ilo.^ •Than.< you Mr. Ivor.

"My God!'1 ojaculatud Ivor with blanched lips. Then, aftor a moment'B pause, 'Did you say stabbed to the heart?11 Enna inclined her head. "Ho had tradictory evidence, certainly makes tho case seem \ cry black ugainst him. But I suppose the fact was $iiat the dear old boy, iindiug himself entangled in a web of circumstantial evidence,^ which he saw no way of refuting, funked it—by which I moan that at* beoa muvJered. and the weapon with tho tirst he lot timo go by, thinking which the crime had beon perpetrated that something would turn up in his la supposed to have been an Indian frvor. but when nothing d d turn up dagger belonging to Uncle UoJfrey. his nerve failed him, and he lacked which was suspended, among other su c ent plucfc to come forward and 4rma over the mantelpiece." ohallenge the verdict k\ least that I is the theory that work* itself out la ! my mind." "Do YOU notthilk it possible," said Enna» speaking with a calmness waich was more apparent than real, "that Koden may hava taken the guilt of I Captain DarvilTg death on himself, and have purposely kept in tho background in order to screen aud save borne other person J"1 Ivor Punleath lifted his eyebrows, "My dear Knie, that is, indeed, a woman's notion," he answered, "touch a proposition would nwver commend itself to our BOX.

A man might do such a thing lot' a woman's sake, or, and that would be more feasible BlilL a woman for a man's sake—but one man lor another? Ko, thank you, dear. As we say in the classics. 'It ain't good enough.1" A flame, half of indignation and half of triumph, leapt into Knna's eyes; a lovely color flushed the lilies j of her cheeks, "Ivor Tenleath. you judge others by yourself. Because you know yourself to be incapable of such a sacrifice, you think that all men must needs be the same. What will you say when I tell yoa and I can vouch for it as a fact that it wus to screen and save another that Koden Bos worth took upon himself the guilt of Vivian Darvill's murder?" "You astound ma Knie—you simply astound ma That Bos worth has a lot of high-ltown notions I always know, but that he should do a thing like this—that any man should do it— seems awful hard to believe. But who is this man, may I ask, for whose sake he has been induced to make such a tremendous sacrifice?" "That is a question lam unable to answer. It is Koden's secret But tell me this, Ivor. What took you back to the Croft on the night of April 18, after you had bidden-us all good-by, and o nod Lord Senlac at the railroad station?" Ivor started and bit his lip. ' -How do you happen to know that I went back to tho CroitP" he asked. "Lord Senlac mentioned tho fact in the course oi' our conversation." "The matter was a very bimple one, and. as it concerned no one but myself, I did not deem it necessary to speak of it. Tho fact is that by a stupid oversight I had left a letter of a very private nature on tho writing table in tho smoking-room. I did not miss it till after 1 reached the station, and, as it was imperatively necossary that I should recover it I engaged a1 fly, was driven baok*to the Croft found tho letter where I know lhat I had left it, and was back at the station in time to catch tho train next after tho ono Senlac and I ought to have traveled by." •-When you got back to the station, "said Knna> "yovi had an ugly wound over your lolt eyo, which waa not thtTO an hour previously. I can see the cicatrice of it now." I'cnleath made a gosturo of annoyanco, "I must compliment you on tho extent of your information" he said ironically • 'It's a pity Sonlnc couldn't find something more edifying to talk about than a parcel of paltry incidents which in no wise concerned him, and which any other follow would never havo thought of again.1' "I'altry incidents Oh, Ivor! Cannot you see the terrible significance these paltry incident* as you tqrjm them, might bo made to assume if you bear in mind tho fact that in less than two hours after your surreptitious return to, tho Croft Captain DarvilTs dead body was found?" [TO UP: CONTINl'ED.] A Kemody for Anything. The venerable Dr. Slop of BlanKtown, was a doctor of the experimental and clectic school of medicine years ago. It was a rule of the doc- • tor's never to h.M.vo anything wasted; and, therefore, when any prescription remained untaken after the patient had .died or recovered, ho would empty it in a bottle kept for the purpose which became the receptacle of a heterogeneous compound that science could not analyze. A younger member of the faculty noted this as a very singular fact and asked of him the reason for it. The doctor hesitated a little, and then replied that though in ordinary cases he knew well what to do. there wore instances when all his medical skill fa loci and he was floored with doubt At such timos. it was his custom to resort to the big Lottie, and leave nature and accident to accomplish tho cure.

PLEASANT BBS • Canadian For««ter's Carloo* Adreofcure With • Quiet Animal. A very remarkable adventure befell my two daughters, writes a correspondent of Forest and Stream, while on their way to the Mastiyouche lakes, where they usually upend •everal weeks every summer. About a quarter of a mile beyond the last settle me nt—JMastigouche—where the woods road to our camp begins, there ia an abandoned clearing of some few acres iu extent* now overgrown with ferns, raspberry bushes and am all shrubs. The buokboard with my two daughters'and driver (David Prevost who is BO well known to all the visitors at the lakes) had just entered this clearing* when David suddenly stopped hia horse and, pointing with his whip, said: 'Oh, look at the cavibou." And there, some two hundred yards or less directly in front of them, was a flue caribou quietly feeding, and apparently unconscious of their presence. After looking at him for 6ome moments David said he would drive on slowly aud see how near he could get* After covering about half the distance the caribou looked up at them and, evidently thinking there was nothing very alarming in their presence, quietly returned to his feoding. David then drove slowly along to see how close he could approach without frightening it away, and when within Borne forty or fifty yards it walked into the woods, but almost •immediately returned and stood gazing at them. As the team still drew nearer, it again turned into the woods, but this time came out again close to the wagou and walked deliberately toward them. David put out his hand and called, and the animal reached out his head to smell of his fingers. It then passed on to the horse, walking alongside of it, then crossed in front under the horse's neck and back along the other side, so close to the buckboard that my daughter could have put her hand on it, then around back of the wagon and up again on the other side of the horse. David thinking that, as the animal Beamed so tame, he would try to catch it handed the reins to my daughter, quietly got down and approached the caribou, holding out his hand and calling to it, when it put out its nose and smelled of him. He rubbed its nose, scratched its head, which it put down and rubbed against him, and finally got up close alongside of him and thi-ew his arms over its neck and grasped the long hair underneath. Then the caribou jumped and struck at David with its feet, but fortunately did not strike him. David meanwhile grasped it under the throat with hia other hand and hold on and in the struggle both fell to «he ground, David on top. • The girts, of course, were very much excited, and kept calling to David not to hurt the poor creature, but to let it go; and as it lay there panting after Provost had got up they were sure he had broken its leg ot hurt it in some other way so seriously that it could not got up.

If you want the best food, you will be interested in the following facts, which show why " Royal" is the best baking powder, why it makes the best and most wholesome food, and why its use has become almost universal—its sale greater in this country than the sale of all other cream of tartar baking, powders combined. The Royal Baking Powder NEVER fails. It is absolutely pure and wholesome- It is combined from the most approved and healthful ingredients. It makes tho finest flavored, most tender, delicious and wholesome food. It has greater leavening strength than any other baking powder, and is therefore the cheapest. It never loses its strength, but will keep fresh and of full leavening power until used. It acts slowly in the dough, so that none of its strength fs Jost before the baking is completed. It makes food that will keep sweet, moist and fresh longer, or that may be eaten hot and fresh with impunity. The reasons why the Royal Baking Powder is superior to all others in these respects are, easily stated. One is because it is made from^phemically pure, materials; another is because it is made with greater care and accuracy than any other. It is always uniform in composition and leavening power. <• It has been the standard baking powder since its introduction. The founder and conductor of its business ever since is still at the head of its management, Thus all the knowledge and skill attained by over a quarter of a century's experience is available in its present preparation. The consumer is not experimented upon by changes of formula that are constantly being made in other powders in an effort to get a mixture that will not "cake" or lose its strength, or that follow changes of proprietorship or manufacturers. The Royal Baking Powder is alwayi certain and equal in its work j a teaspoonful doc» the same perfect work to-day that it did yesterday, or last week or month, or last year. While tlie last teaspoonful in a can of Royal ia as good as the first, other powders lose their strength after being made a short time, and particularly after the can is opened. The exactness with which the active principle of each ingredient prior to mixing is ascertained by expert chemists; the actual prohibition enforced against the receipt into the worVs of an impure ingredient; the care with whk *e materials are dried, coated and prepared uetore their combina* tion, and the precision in packing the powder so that it shall be delivered to the consumer in the perfect condition in which it leaves the factory, are some of the details which go to make the perfect" Royal." The same means are not employed oy other manufacturers. There have been a great many imitations of the Royal, but no equals. Pure materials are not employed, care is not taken in their preparation and combination, while in tho great majority of baking powders alum is added to give them strength, while cheapening their cost. The great popularity and general use of tho Royal Baking Powder attest its superiority. .'A • CONDENSED CLIPPINGS.

A Chicago couple became involved in a broach of promise suit, came to an agreement and married, but failed to notify their lawyers. The natural result followed that the case came up for a rehearing, and of course there was no case to hear. When magistrates in Scotland enter anew year of duty they attend church together.

Prof. Mark Beal, who gives a dramatic recital here on Jan. 20, is a man whose nobleness of character has commanded the respect, and his talents the admiration of all who have heard him. He is justly styled a prince among elocutionists. His public recitals have in them a degree of excellence and artistic merit which cannot be surpassed. Prof. Beal is the Principal in the Department of Oratory in the Methodist College at Albion, and manager of the International Lecture Bureau. Pinjkney is lucky in being able to hear such a man.

He was a resident of Genoa township for nearly forty years before taking up his abode in Ann Arbor.— Livingston Herald. Mr. Davis was well known in this vicinity. When some of the big logs go through town to the mill nearly everyone wonders where they come from. People did not suppose that there was so much or so large timber in this vicinity. Mr. Walker informs us however, that, "the woods are full of 'em." It must be that the people in this vicinity are doing as they should, and are using receipt books in their business, as we have just supplied F. A. Siller with another invoice of these i useful little articles. They should be used by the farmer as well as the merchant.

An instrument is left on trial with a farmer, who is induced to sign what is supposed to be an insurance clause, which, however, turns up in the shape of a note for $480 in payment for the piano.—Ex.

Henrv and Manuel Crout of this cold day la.st week when a stranger called at their housa and asked to warm. In conversation they found him to be their brother Lewis, whom they had not seen since he enlisted in the army more than thirty years ago. The father being killed in the war, the mother and younger brothers moved from New York to Brighton, Lewis losing all trace of them until last summer, when he found their address through our post-master and determined to visit them. He is oow a successful business man in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.—Brighton Argus. A Pleasant Surprise. A very pleasant surprise and pound party was tendered to Rev. W. G. Stephens on Friday evening of last week. Between 00 and 70 were present, and to say that they enjoyed themselves would be putting it mildly. Of course they always have a good time when they go to Rev. Stephens'. The pounding consisted of hundreds of pounds of useful articles. The Rev. is much thought of by everyone, as was shown by the crowd who came out. It was a genuine surprise for the elder, he having attended prayer meeting at the Cong'l church, and returned to find his horns filled with friends. Chure'i N Special services will be held at the M.

The traveler gets better, and concludes not to send for 1 lie medicine, keeps (he farmer's signature, and the next thing the farmer knows he has a note to pay. The warning, has been given for the hundredth time: Don't sign your nam^ to any paper for a stranger.—Ex. . m i • i * Head Tins.

Layton Leecli and his vinmg wife. living on a farm a mile and a half southeast ol Dundee wen; terribly ami probably fatally injured by a farm hand in their employ, The man went with Leech to the barn ami then assaulted him with an ax, sending the blade into t he back of his head and then pounding him with the side of it. Leaving his employer for dead he returned to the house. Mrs. Leech asked him* where her husband was. The only reply was a staggering blow with a club. Mrs. Leech Uicii ran followed by the, farm hand. He seized a gun and sent a charge of tine shot into her neck, tearing the llesh and leaving a gaping wound. Mrs. Leech says she then lost consciousness, but the«ippearunce of the house tells the story of a terrible struggle. Her clothes were torn and covered with blood. Mrs. Leech's face and body gave evidence of the most brutal treatment, while the disarranged ami broken furniture, and blood-spattered walls testiiied to a terrible struggle. The brute had overpowered the weakened woman and criminally assaulted her when she became unconscious. Believing both his victims dead the murderer plundered the house and tied. The next morning a neighbor named Thomas Sturgis heard moans, and entering found Mrs. Leech lying on the jloor unable to arise.

The present election l aw is a pren t Improvement over the one in force previous to its enactment, but I would respectfully recommend that in order to st cure greater accuracy and remove opportunity for fraud, a law be passed providing fori a separate board for counting the ballots; that the boxes be changed in t.fcel middle of t h e forenoon, nt noon a n d ' t h e middle of Ihe afternoon: that soon a s t h e count of t h e tirst box is mpleted it shall be t h e duty of t h e ' -itf board to p u t up in public ew n bulletin showing how t h e vote »nds, and as soon a s t h e Several boxes e counted have t h e result bulletined at or.ee. "When the noils elose there will -. lie but few votes to count, ami by fi o'clock t h e result can be known, a n d as the result of t h e vote up to :i o'clock h a s already been mad.; public, there is little opportunity for m i s t a k e s o r deception. T h e board c a n v a s s i n g during t h e day. without having been exhausted" by n d a y ' s work a s inspectors of election is of itself a. u u a r a n t y of fewer mistake's and g r e a t e r accuracy In ascertaining t h e result, a n d as it will inspire confidence it will reduce t n " number of demands for recount, with the expense and h a r d ' f e e l - ing engendered, in which t h e defeated candidate a n d party invuriibly c har re fraud. T h - .expense would be but littPe if a n y . K renter with t w o boards than with one, because the work would all be done in one d a y . for which unfler t h e present l aw usually t w o d a y s ' time is paid for. If t h e state canvass is made on the third Monday in November, instead of the second Monday in December, It will tend to accuracy a s well a s a n early settlement of the election.

In o| her words, it is not necessary to iinish lhem all tids year, a s others will come after us to care for their needs a s they ar;se, l-'or iiiany y e a r s ihe covernmr-nt and coutrul of o u r institutions h a s been by boards for eaeii i.isii t uiion. who have i iiher ser\-ed Lrrat tiitously or for a moderate per die >ii compensation when a c - tually employed in the performance of their duties. In tlie case of the regents of t h e u n i v t r s i t y a n d the State iToard of Kducation a constitutional provision prescribes the ir powers a n d duties a n d liXes their , •tmpensi' tion. During t h e more than fifty years this system h a s been in operation in the state each year has K^ven additional evidence of t h e "wisdom ^of our predecessors in estalilishintr it. Two years a^o the law was changed, and all t h e Institutions, except the a s y - lums for insane, were placed under t h e charge of t w o boards. This system h a s been on trial but two years, a n d it is claimed by i t s advocates' that it h a s not had a fair trial. That there is some force in this claim I do not deny. The boards are now composed of sonic of t h e very best citizens of the state, who have j^'iven their best efforts for the berie:it of the inmates of the institutions under their control. Xow, a s to t h e benefits derived from t h e change. After paying t h e salaries there has been no saving in expense of supervision. I have not been able to learn of a n y t h i n g done by the r e w board for the benefit of t h e institutions or their inmates that could not or would not have l-een done by the old boards, a n d in t h e n a t u r e of things :hey could not be a s familiar with, t h e control a n d m a n a g e m e n t of t h e seve:-ii! institutions «s t h e old hoards would with the one institution. I think a system, of hoards, whose members M r\ e without compensation except expenses, lias more to recommend it than any o t l v r . Kxperienee h a s shown t h a t m e m b e r s become acquainted and interested in t h e institution under their charge, and they ^ive t h e m a t t e r a painstaking care .which cannot be purchased with money, and is second only to their interest in their own family and home affairs. In vit w of t h e number of institutions and their liability to loss ur d a m a g e by tir , 1 respectr'uliy recommend t h a t p r o - vision be made to meet such a n emergency without calling t h e Legislature t o - gether, by providing that t h e Governor and Hoard of Auditors can authorize t h e repair or rebuilding of a n y such institution, a n d providing t h e necessary mean9 therefor, fact t h a t Thin the more nece: s a r y from t h e itate curries no Insurance. In t h e case of the d a m a g e to t h e ern Asylum the? board was* able to rebuild on account of surplus e a r n i n g uii hand. Hut for this, it 'vould have been necessary to have called t h e L e g i s l a t u r e together. Had t h e loss occurred to a n y other institution, a n extra session of t h e Legislature would have been unavoidable. Since t h e adjournment of t h e Legislature t h e Supreme Court h a s decided that the indeterminate sentence law is unconstitutional. TUe. same a c t included the parole law. At)ii)rii,' those most experienced in the mainaj^cment of prisons these two features <^re considered absolutely essential ti) successful prison management, Ihe thcorj,1 laid down bein;-; that fi,r the cornminsiuli of crime a minimum amount of imii|*;hri.,'iil .should be imposed by t h e court, f n d thus no power shou|d lie Ki Veil to relive" H' l!'i' ij-'Ui ", A f ter t h!it a li ss rl;;oiu:i| Irejv i'-o i i u e n t d p c d i y on tin- bchavif'1' °f ' h i ' priso employment e(m be -found he leased on paroie and re "ive charge in advance of his n -t Lcoce, a s is now done by wh as t;i)iul tiim'.

Royal Baking Powder Strongest, Purest, Most Economical. As to whether any of the baking powders are equal to the "Royal," the official tests clearly determine. When samples of various baking powders were purchased from the grocers, and analyzed by the United States Government Chemists and the Chemists of State and City Boards of Health, the reports revealed the fact that the "Royal" contained from 28 per cent, to 60 per cent, more leavening strength than the others, and also that it was more perfectly combined, absolutely pure, and altogether wholesome. As most of these powders are sold to consumers at the same price as the "Royal," by the use of the Royal Baking Powderthere is an average saving of over one third, besides the advantage of assured purity and wholesomcness of food, and of bread, biscuit and cake mede perfectly light, sweet, and palatable. The official reports also reveal the presence, in other powders, of alum, lime or sulphuric acid, by which their use is made a matter of grave danger to the consumer. Whenever a baking powder is sold at a lower price than the "Royal" or with a gift, it is a certain indication tkfit it is made from alum, and is to be avoided under all circumstances. V; ;S V Ife • * . THURSDAY, JAN. 12, 1893. There will be one World's Fair souvenir half-dollar to every thirteen persons in the* United States. Consequently there will be some lively hustling among the thirteen to see who will be the lucky posi? ssor of the coin. -*r • *~ — It is as good as settled at last that both a morning and an evening paper will be issued at the World's Fair in Chicago. The papers will be printed on presses sent to the fair ns exhibits, and it is possible that they will be printed on paper made on the grounds. — Xcwspaperdom. The typical newspaper of today is far from perfect, and none know its deficiency better than those who print it. 13ut when its imperfections have been named and criticised as they should be, the fact remains that it is today the greatest check upon comipttion to be found in the land. Ex. - * • • < circulars. All such mail is not only carried at a loss of o" cents a pound, but it interferes materially with the business of the express and railroad companies, which are properly carriers of heavy packages and freight. There is also to be mentioned the large amount of express business put into the mails by the various departments of the (u)vernment. A reduction of postage on letters would bring thanks to the Clovernment every time a letter is dispatched or received from the millions of people, and the great popularity of the new large postal card, which is crowding out the smaller cards, expresses plainly the general desire for 1 cent letters. A reduced rate to foreign countries would be a special boon to those who have found a new home here, aiid whose only correspondence is with the fatherland. The cost of transporting the ocean mail is no greater in proportion than the domestic. If we cannot soon have cheaper telegraph and telephone rates, we can certainly have 1 cent letter post-' age, as the Government is the j p.istal monopolist. It is claimed that *f>(l000.000 would lzardly cover the amounts appropriated since April 1 by the railroads centering . at Chicago, and now being expended for improvements in terminal facilities, new equipments, etc., in anticipation of a heavy increase :>f business during the World's Fair. They evince a full realization of the magnitude of that grand exhibit. Orange Judd, who died last week, was a pioneer in Agricultural journalism, and the uncompromising foe of every scheme opposed the advancement of the agricultural interests of the country. Born on the border of civilization, his early training being in an agricultural region, he early saw the need of more technical reading for farmers, and he gave it to them, through' nearly forty years connection with agriculturul papers. His name is known in almost every farmer's home from Maine to California. During his career, Mr. Judd waged unceasing war upon humbugs and swindlers, especially those operating against farmers, over two thousand parties being denounced by name. Libel suits were very numerous as the outcome of his scorchings.—Toledo Blade. - ^ ••»-•»- We clip the following from the Post-master General's Report for the year ending June 30, 1802: In my report of a year ago I said, and I have now to say, that 1-cent letter postage is a near possibility. One cent lstter postage to every place in the world is what this nation is surely coming to. There are many who now insist that with the postal deficit removed we should immediately reduce letter postage. It must be borne in mind that the English penny stamp is no less than our 2-cent stamp and that our letter stamp carries an ounce while the English penny" stamp carries but a half ounce. However, as a 2-cent stamp produces much more than the amount of expense of handling the letter mail, it is urged that the postage on this class of mail matter should be reduced."* The present letter rate pnys actually double the cost, and by this overpay serves as a protective rate to the Department to cover the underpay for the express business it does for periodicals and books and for carrying advertising sheets at one cent a pound, that load the aiails enormously and are in point of fact nothing more [than business REGULATE THE I STOMACH, LIVER ANO BOWELS, AM) 4 PURIFY THE BLOOD.

We prefer ladies to handle ths agency for the goods, as they can show them up to much better advantage, 'lire crimpers arc nickel plated, and put up In boxes % doz. in a box. Samplts will be sent on receipt of 35 cents to pay the postage and first cost of the crimper, when we will forward the prices and discount to agents, towns, county or state given to parties who will guarantee to take a certain number of crimpers to start on. . . .

Since the reassembling of Coi> LUVSS, tho silver men, who have <*'pt wry quiet during all the talk ibout the proponed silver I n i t - iation at the present session, are showing their teeth; and their humor has not been improved by the rumors charging that the Cleveland influence had caused desertions from their ranks. The prossure for the repeal of the repeal of the present silver law is daily becoming more powerful, and one of tlje latest arguments is that Mr. Cleveland has said that if it was not repealed by this Congress, he would call an immediate extra session of the iifty-third Congress; another is that the Ameriean delegates of the International Monetary conference told their foreign colleagues who pointed to this law as an obstacle to any agreement being reached, that it would be repealed before the conference comes together again in May. Notwithstanding all this talk, and that which is certain soon to be heard on the floor of both the House and Senate, the present silver law will neither be repealed nor will that portion of it compelling monthly purchases of silver bullion be suspended, unless the members of the House who have banded themselves together under the leadership of Kepresentative Pierce of Tennessee, who was Mr. Bland's lieutenant in the hot silver fight during the last session, shall change'their minds. They say now that they will prevent the passage of such legislation by fillibustering, no matter what the effect may bo upon other legislation including the regular appropriation bills. The apparently easy victory ov-j or Mr. Cleveland which tho Hill- Murphy combination has won in the Now York legislature is exciting the liveliest interest in Congie.- s. although the democrats as, a "rule are' non-committal. T h e ' general impression hero \<, that Murphy is just as good as nominated and elected to the U. S. Sen-! ate. Senator Hill is hero, but he isn't saying a word. Cotton is no longer king, either in the commercial world or in Congress, but the long-deposed monarch has subjects who are stil" dreaming of a restoration to power. A movement is on foot for the democratic Senators and Kepre-! sentatives from the eott.op-grow-, ing states to demand one or more seats in Mr. Cleveland's cabinet. One at the originators and leaders of this movement is Hepresontative Crain, of Texas, who speaks his mind about this business in his usual free and easy style. He says: "In the various conjectures about probable members of the cabinet, southern men are almost entirely ignored, and yet, the defection of a few southern states at the late election would have boon fatal to Mr. Cleveland's ambition. Are the cotton-growing states so certain for democracy that they are only to bo considered during Presidential campaigns, and forgotten afterwards? Are they to pay the penalty for giving large democratic majorities? We have men capable of tilling any office, and wo have a right to expect recognition. If Mr. Carlisle accepts the Secretaryship of the Treasury, Kentucky will bo honored, but Kentucky is not a southern or a cotton-growing stale." Considerable amusement was created when the House and Senate Immigration committee returned <froni their little Christmas junket to Cuba, at Uncle Sains expens \ and reported tint there was little or no dunger of our getting cholera from that quarter. Ever) s'irup of information upon which this report was based might easily have been obtained from government officials r; ght here in Washington, but nothing short of a personal visit would satisfy these solons. Of course the pleasure of the trip did not cairy them. No, indeed! Perish such a sordid thought! The cholera scare was taken advantage of to deprive the anti-option b'll for two days of its right of way in the Senate and to take up two other bills now on the calendar relating to precautions against the cholera. Flour has been included among the articles with which the a o. bill deals. Senator Chandler has introduced a bill ostensibly aimed at the Pinkertons and the semi--military anarchist organizations, but it is believed that his real target is the new military organization that is lxung organized by the populists. The bill provides that it shall be unlawful for ten or more men, any of whom are subject to enrollment ns a part of the militia of any state, to assemble or,drill or bear arms as a military company, squad, battalion, or other military organization, unless they are called forth by some civil or military officer authorized to make such call. It also provides penalties for violations of the law of a fine not exceeding £1,000 or imprisonment not exceeding one year, or both, at the discretion of the President. If this bill were a law, it would break up every organization in the United States which boars arms of any description, and is not a part of the militia of any state. I t would, however, be unconstitutional. UTTERS! UTTERS! BOB-SLEIGHS! BOB-SLEIGHS! "place in PINCKNEY TO :B,TJ"IT S L E I G - H S ANY KIND 13 Teeple & Cadwell's.

WNCKNEY, MICHIGAN I F prudence of reserve and decorum sometimes dictates silence, at others prudence of a higher order may justify speaking. TUB dialect story is yoingf out of •ogue. Good! Lifo is too short to be wasted in efforts to comprehend something which when comprehended doesn't amount usually to a hiil of beans. CHICAGO'S latest hold-up was perpetrated by a husband whoso wife was the victim. Ho elevated her heel-wiso and shook her until money concealed about her person fell to the floor. His only possible excuse was that he needed the money and she had hidden it in her pocket. YALE students tried to turn a New Haven theater inside out, and although their success was only partial they were rewarded by heavy lines. College traditions seem to be fading. The fact that a Yale student can bo as guilty of disorderly conduct as any one else who misbehaves is slowly forcing its way to recognition. SOME of the Atlantic steamer lines have abolished the steerage department. This means, rather than the suppression of the steerage passenger, that hereafter himself, his pov-: erty and his microbes will travel, right in company with other passen-j gers. The occasion does not seem oonducive to expressions of gratitude THE manner in which several estates hereabouts have melted away and been recast to fit the coffers of the- lawyers concerned has excited, among other things, the suggestion that the gates of the penitentiary will swing open for some of the lawyers. Thosugges-j tion is cheering, but delusive. Penitentiary gates do not do this sort of thing. If they swing open for the benefit of the lawyers, it will be that the pauperized heirs may be chucked through as a punishment for not having moro to be robbed of. THE danger of cholera in this country has not disappeared. Jn Hamburg and other European cities the plague sleeps and will wake in the spring. This is the opinion of medical experts. Immigration, if not properly 'restricted, will bring the disease to our shores. To ell'eetually check immigration, so that only a desirable cla^s will be admitted, is apparently a matter that involves insurmountable dirtieulties. So experience teaches. I'ntil the menace of cholera has hi'eu totally removed the best way to regulate immigration is to stop it. GHFAT hopes are ontertainM m Europe that :i remedy for cholei'a has been found which is able to destroy tho microbe that propagates the disease without injury to human flesh and tissue. Mr Andrew Clark of England has experimented with it very Kueci'scfully, and in Hamburg it is credited with greatly lessening cholera fatalit ies. The remedy con- Bists of crystals that are to be injected into the blood. Their composition is held as a secret, but the experiments made will fully .show whether the new remedy has the value claimed for it. Mu. ARMont'.s magnificent gift to the city of Chicago of a beautiful building for a manual training school and an endowment fund of $1,400,000 in addition, is in line with endowments in other great cities for tho teaching of the practical sciences the mastery of which will enable a young man to get a living. The moro we have of such institutions the bettor. They are even moro useful than the colleges, inasmuch as they combine the practical with the theoretical. The intensely utilitarian turn of Mr. Armour's mind is indicated by his announcement that tho institution will be provided with religion, sixteen ounces to the pound, like the best leaf lard, but with no denominationalism. W H I L E our young people are deeply engaged in the study of philosophy and art and their elders aro tho only ones who are wise enough to seek rest and amusement, it follows that the novel will be written for the pleasjtiVe and approval of those older readers. And as it is a curious and well-known fact that there is nothing people like so well to hear about as themselves, it is a natural sequence that the characters who animate the plot of the modern story should be mature people. We may pass an idle hour in reading the romantic trials of callow and sentimental youth, but what takes downright hold of us, tho sort of story that will be read and remembered and talked about by the readers of to-day, must deal with the heavy trials and struggles and temptations of people who are kindred to us La age and experience.

AH with all new schools time in required for Its development, and a large attendance may be exp e c t e d , us the advantages offered become better understood. The general public do not, perhaps, appreciate its importance as thoroughly as that of schools of general instruction, but it is one of our established Institutions and should receive from the Legislature u juat and fair recognition, SCHOOL FO1I THK DKAK The School for the Deaf, at Flint, Is one which enlists the sympathy and good wishes of every visitor. The inmates, because of their infirmity, their bright, expressive faces, their quick Intelligence and cheerful dispositions, appeal to our liberality for every advantage which can hw afforded them. The special training and education furnished here enable many of these unfortunates to become useful, self-supporting citizens, and liven which would otherwise be passed in solemn loneliness are rendered endurable and even cheerful. The school met with a great loss in the death of Supt. Monroe, who had long been a faithful and beloved teacher, but his place has hueu supplied by one who brings the best credentials, and the manayemeiu is in all respects admirable. SCHOOL FOU T11K HLIND.% Thi» School for the Ulind, at Lansing, is the least expensive of our charitable iusi.it ulions. Tin' unforlmuue inmates, especially the young, appeal strongly for every provision by which a Christian society can lighten their misfortune. The school is under tin1 supervision ut a kind matron and an Intelligent superintendent, and deserves j o u r favorable attention. STATK i'l.'HLlC SCHOOL. The Slate i'ublic School at Coldwater is the refuge of the neglected children and waifs of the .state. They aro infants and young children wnose only offense is their existence, and who are there cared for by kind hands until homes can be found for them in respectable families. Huuianily demands this work, and it is done at this institution as tenderly as in the homes of more fortunate hoys and girls. The school is prosperous and doing good work, and 1 can suggest nothing better for its interests than that it be continued, together v>ith tlie School for the Deaf, and the School tor the Jilind, under the management of the Central lioard of Control. STATK 1'KISON. The most important of our penal Institutions is the State Prison at Jackson. The position of warden is a- very responsible one, because of the character of the inmates and the magnitude of the interests under his supervision. The state is fortunate in tne present incumbent, whose administration lias 'been a marked success. In tile past two years, for the first time in its history, the prison has paid ils own running expenses, and in addition has earned a handsome revenue for the stale. A new cell block has been completed and occupied, new shops, new walks and a ne.v wall have been bui.t, and many other improvements made. Discipline has been maintained, the inmates have been well fed and otherwise provided for, and the general condition of the prison is highly satisfactory. The report of the warden is a concise statement of what has been acconlplished, and contains many practical and valuable suggestions, in the management of a great penitentiary it is a condition and not a theory which must be met, and it is the practical man who will succeed.

No crltlclMin of the management has reached me, which fact is the best proof that none is ju«tllied. In leaving this class of our public charities 1 repeat my conviction that further additions to the accommodations at the asylums should be in the direction of the cottaye system, both on the score of economy, and for the welfare of thw Inmates. Power should also be K'lven the board of trustees to classify their population and exchange Inmates ti'om one asylum to another.

UKOLOCHCAL .Sl'KVKV, 1 invite special attention to the report of the State lioard of HeoloKleul Survey, now laid before the L - i s l a t u r e for the first time in twelve years, it contains matters of public interest which cannot be discussed in detail, but if you care to learn what lias become of an annual appropriation of JS.uou, continued through twenty years, from which few of our people have received any benelit. the information is there furnished. I trust the recommendations therein made will meet your approval, especially that relating to the Commissioner of .Mineral Statistics, whose duties could better be performed by the State (ieoloKist or one of his assistants. The geulouy of our state Is of lar^e interest to our citizens, and the subject, as it now stands, calls for heroic treatment. The survey should either be abandoned, or provision made for its early completion. HOOD ROADS.

In their opinion no valid leKislatioi. can be enacted, under our present Constitution, which will meet the requirements of modern road-makiiiK, and you will be .asked to submit to the people at the next election an amendment to the Constitution, which, if adopted, will enable the Legislature to put in operation ;l general system of road improvement. The importance of this subject is a t t r a c t - In,!-,' attention in every part of our country. Conventions are held, societies organized and public sentiment aroused to ihe necessity for better roads. It is admitted on all hands that our present system, or lack of system. Involves a waste of time, labor and money, without permanent benefit, and no other question of Internal policy demands greater attention at your hands. WORLD'S (''OH'MIUAN KX 1'OSITION.

'"Wiihin a few years a lar.L?e number of buildiiiK i»nd loan associations have been organized and arc operating in this state. Alore than one hundred Michigan associations, and many organized in other states are now doiii^ business here, and their agents are diligently camMssiiiM' every section of the slate. 1'eople of all cla-sson are induced to subscribe for stock, and make small payments from time to time under an agreement that they shall be entitled to draw out. a certain sum at the expiriMon of a fixed period. The Lcrms offered are so advantageous that they are. accepted by thousands of people. The; subscribers have no means of knowing that the associations will be able- to meet their obligations whe'b the time comes, and the business lias assumed such large proportions that stockholders should be protected by having the business placeu under competent state supervision, so that the financial condition of these associations may be known by those who are asked to invest in them. Associations cloinK legitimate business would have no cause, to complain of such .supervision, and the people should be informed aa to their responsibility. LEGISLATIVE SESSIONS. The length of recent sessions of the Legislature affords just cause for complaint, and public opinion demands a reiorm in this respect, The Legislatures of 1SS7, ISSfl and lS'Jl, were each in session about six months. Such lengthy sessions are not necessary, and it is in the power of any Legislature to shorten them without diminishing, the amount of work accomplished. There are two principal causes of the evil. One is the existing method of dealing with municipal charters, which consumes a large portion of every session in the consideration of separate bi'.ls. If our cities and villages were classified according to population, and a general charter enacted for each class, which all desiring to incorporate must accept, a great saving In labor and time would be f.ccomuhshed. The other principal cause of lengthy sessions Is the practice by the members of accepting free pr.s-ses. If they were obliged to pay their own traveling expenses most members would remain at the capitol and attend to their duties, but with tree t rausponat ion experience has shown that, they will vote to adjourn from Friday night to -Monday night, and tho result Is only four working diiyH in the week.

Call at our office and see the pictures which wo offierwith the DISPATCH for SI.15. If you ever attended school in the new school building you will surely want a picture of it. We have just received the January issue of the Farm Journal, the wellknown and popular monthly farm paper, published by Wilmer Atkinson. Every farmer, gardener, stock breeder, orchardi9t, dairyman, poultryman, their wives, and even the boys and girls will find it crowded full of helpful information. It aims to be practi cal rather than theoretical, to be brief ami to the point, in fact, to be cream not skim-milk. It is adapted to all parts of the country, north, south, east and west. The very best people take it because it is clean, honest, earnest, and progressive, with no ax to grind or hobby to ride. It is for the farmer, first, last, and all the time. Send a postal to Wilmer Atkinson, Philadel phia, for a circular giving twenty handsome portraits of leading and prominent agriculturists, with what they say about the paper; a sample copy will also be forwarded, free, to all our readers. The subscription rate is 50 cents a year, but there are liber al commissions to those who will fet up a club. The sleighing of the past week has been tine for those who are hauling logs for the mill at this place and for those who are drawing poplar for the pulp mill at Hudson. A kind friend furnished us the past week with one of the missing numbers of the DISPATCH. We now need only the issue of July 21 to complete our hies of 1892. Who has it? A ureat many called last week and renewed their subscription to the DISPATCH. There aie still more who are in arrears. Friends, do not call it dunning, but we need all that is due us, and if you are prompt in paying, it will oblige us much. The Condensed Milk company received 4700 lbs of milk Monday.

An absent-minded Toronto woman in her hurry to start for church recently took from a closet a pair of her husband's trousers for her dolman, threw them over her arm, and did not discover her mistake until she had thrown them over the back of the pew in front of her.—Ex. In the new money order sj^stem adopted by the United States, slips will be issued calling for amounts from one cent to $3. The postmaster will have no writing to do, the sender endorsing on the back, same as on a check or draft. One cent will send anything from three dollars down. We hope our correspondents will remember that they have a very important part in tho news ' gathering! for the DISPATCH. What we want is good NEWS and plenty of it. We would like a correspondent who would send in news weekly, in every neighborhood in this part ef the county. To ask a minister to announce meetings which conflict with services of his church, is to ask him to "give himself away." He should never bo expected to do so. This thoughtless imposition upon the courtesy of the pulpit, is too often committed. It is much like asking a merchant to advertise the goods of his competitor. A business man in a town in the western part of the state made an assignment a few days ago and as the people read the account of his failure in the local paper they were astonished as they had never known a man by that name who was doing business in the town. It is useless to say he did not advertise.—Ex. We have a large number of photographs, 5x8, of the fine school building at this place which are very fine, and we will give one with the DISPATCH one year for $1.15. We also have some of Main St., looking from the east, which we will give the same as the above or we will give both pictures and the DISPATCH one vear for $1.25. Either picture alone for 25 cents by mail, post-paid. 2w The Rev. George R. Wallace gave his lecture on "Scarecrows11 at the Cong'l church on Monday evening last. The night was exceedingly cold, but a good audience gathered The lecture was brim full of humor and laaghable incidents, which sent eferybody home with aching sides, and also with wiser minds, for every laugh proved to be a nail on which hung much truth and wisdom. Ann Arbor students comsume their surplus vitality and develops their legs and their wind by chasing each other across country in the game of hare and hounds. The last run was over eight miles and was made in time that caused the Ypsi mortor line managers to become apprehensive lest their best patronage should he lost, a more reliable means of rapid transit becoming popular.—Ex. The mail train was two hours late yesterday morning being blocked by freight trains at Hamburg. H. D, Mowers made a trip to Marion, Clare Co., last week overland, driving a pair of horses attached to a cutter. He said he had to walk about 20 miles because there was no snow. He left the team with his son, who is working there, and came home on the cats. A Remarkable Snake. An interesting snake has just been added to the collection of the Zoological society. This oreature lives exclusively upon a diet of eggs, which its small teeth permit it to swallow unbroken. But there is a remarkable mechanism for extracting1 the contents of the egg quite unique in the animal kingdom. k Tho spines of some of the veitebra? are tipped with enamel, so that they are voritable teeth. With tho help ot these the egg shell is cracked and the contents liberated into the irsophagus, where there la no riak of any waste; the shell is then rejected by the mouth. Thia singular serpent is named Dasypeltia and comes from South Africa.—London News. GREAT BIBLE C0MPETIT10H. Thousands of Dollars in Rewards for Bible Readers.

F r e n c h Cabinet Ko»ijjns. Paris cable: The French ministry has resigned, owing to differences in the cabinet on the arrest of ex-Minister of Public Works Baihaut and other matters. The greatest excitement prevailed and people throng the streets. The police are kept constantly out in force and dispersing crowds. The president charged M. Ribot with the duty of reconstructing the ministry. It is openly charged that the president and M. Ribot are not in earnest in the Panama prosecutions, and that they have no intention of bringing the bribe-takers to trial, and that the prosecution of I)e Lesseps, Foutane, Cottu and Eiffel will be nothing more than a farce. M. Ribot at once set to work forming a new cabinet and in a surprisingly short time presented the following to President Carn,ot: M. Ribot, premier1 and minister of the interior; M.Develle, foreign affairs; M. Tirrand, finance; M. Honrgeois, justice; General Loizillon, war; M. Uurdeau, colonies and marine; M. Dupuy, instruction; M. Vigor, agriculture; M. Siegfried, commerce; M. Viette, works. The most notable difference between this cabinet and its predecessor i.s shown by tho absence of M. de Freycinet and M. Lnubet. 3 0 MINERS DROWNED. An Awful Catastrophe In an En if Huh ; Mine. A calamitous accident occurred at Ponzance, Cornwall, England. While a number of men were at work in the Wheal Owl mine at that place, water suddenly rushed in and drowned many of tho miners. As soon as the roar of the water wus heard, those who were nearest to the main shaft rushed into the cage and were quickly drawn to the sxirface. Others at a distance were overtaken by the water and their cries could be heard resounding through the galleries. The number of menjdrowned las been ascertained to be 30. FROM LAKES TO SEA. "V. DEEP WATERWAYS CONVENTION AT WA8H1NQTON, A Canal Projected and Advoc»t»4 From the Great Lakes, Wholly Within th« Uulted State**, to the Atlantic—] Trade and Lake States Demand It. About 125 delegates to a convention of representatives of commercial bodies and lake interests of the country assembled, at the call of the Duluth chamber of commerce, in the banquet hall of the Arlington hotel, Washington, D. C. The call was read by S. A.Thompson, of Duluth, who said: " I t has long been recognized that it would be for the greatest advantage, commercially, to have a deep-water ship canal connecting the great lakes and the Atlantic, and that, from a military point of view, it is of the utmost importance that this connection should be made through American territory; but no decisive action looking to the construction of such a canal has ever been taken. During the past year, however, public attention has been sharply drawn to the matter by the controversy between the governments of the United States and the Dominion of Canada over the discriminating tolls levied by the latter upon American commerce passing through the Welland canal, and the passage of the socalled retaliation act imposing corresponding tolls upon Canadian commerce using the Sault canal.'1 Canada is constructing a canal at the Sault and it is very evident that within a short time—in violation of all treatly stipulations— would close the Welland and St. Lawrence canals altogether to American commerce. Thus would the United States be without communication between the lakes and the sea, while the merchant ships of Canada and British men-of-war, as well, will have an open way between the ocean and the lakes. After a few preliminary addresses the following officers were elected: President, George H, Ely, of Cleveland; vice-presidents, C, W, Osgood, of Vermont and Wm. A. Sweet, of New York, with one hondrary vice-president from each state; secretary, S. A. Thompson, of Duluth. Congressman Chipman, of Michigan, made a very eloquent addresses advocating the enterprise and clearly showed that, while the canal would cost about 8150,000,000, the saving to the farmers and the trade of tho country would more than counterbalance this in two years. The Regulator* may be Freed In four days 20U talesmen were called for jury service in the trial of the Blue Wooded Regulators, Cheyenne, Wyo. Twenty-three were peremptorily challenged and not one accepted by both sides. At this rate 3,704 talesman will be required and the county has only about 2,000. The outlook is discouraging to the prosecution. In case a jury cannot be secured the defendants will be dismissed. £i'here are 3(J1 peremptory challenges to be used. INTERESTING ITEMS. Senator Kenna is slowly improving. There are 15,000 persons in the new mining camp in Sonora, Mexico. The Furniture Dealers' National association was in session in Chicago. The Mexican trunk lines have increased through freight rates 200 pet cent. The Chicago Presbytery will request the general assembly to revise the creed. The Populists have assumed entire control of the state government of Kansas. The British bark Navarch was abandoned at sea after losing four men overboard. Pension Commissioner Raum now estimates the pension deficiency at nearly $14,000,000. New York Presbytery has formally pronounced Dr. .liriggs innocent of the charges of heresy. The New Jersey Central has withdrawn from the coal combine and restored independent rates. The three Weaver electoral ballots cast in Nevada were solid silver cards, two by three inches in size. The 30 Now York electors indorsed Murphy for senator before casting their votes for Cleveland and Stevenson. Congressman Youmans has made hia son Harry clerk of his House committee on expenditures in the treasury department. Matthew Ellis died in St. Paul, leaving $80,000. Rachel Ellis, GO years old, and Flora Wilson, middle-aged, claim to be his widows.

Tbe angelus bell was ringing from picturesque little church of St. l&enier a village juat below the town •of Avarancbes, in Normandy. As it rang Marie Leaage finished imilking the last cow in the farmyard Icloae by the church; she rose at the [sound, and put her stool under her arm, while Jean Tiesot, who was standing by her side, mechanically tfotfed his cap, and there was silence '/or a minute between them. The previous conversation had apparently been very animated, for fMarie a cheeks were flushed, and her (bright eyes sparkled like diamonds under her dark brow a while Jean looked on the verge of despair aa he ga ed distractedly on Marie's pretty profile and charming little figure, in Its neat gray dress and white apron. - Marie was a farmer's daughter, and did not wear the ugly loose black jackets and unbecoming round flat caps redeemed from ugliness by their streamers of the Avranches peasants. No, Marie was a coquette, and wore short petticoats because she had small feet; a tight bodice, because she had a charming figure; a red rose in her black hair, because it contrasted well with her raven plaits; and a white muslin fichu over her gray dress, because it showed to advantage her clear olive skin. The angelu3 bell ceased, and Jean renewed his conversation. "Marie I meant it If you won't marry me, I will go to sea." Jean was very handsome; he had golden hair and a long golden moustache, blue eyes aud a completion bronzed by exposure to sea and sun; he was goodly to look at in his knitted blue jorpey. "Ah! «h! Jean, you all say that. Pierre said it, and Jacques and Kobert Tell me eome news—I ara used to that old lalo. -'If you do not marry me, I will go to sea." mocked Maria ^!X&ey said it and I do it J say it, and by our l.ady I'll go this very night if you don't promise to marry me." said Joan. fiercely- Marie turned a shade paler, but she laugliod as bhe answered: "Well, Jean. 1 believe a sailor's life is a very happy one; you can try it" "A happy life! You pretend to believe I can be happy without you? Why, 1 would give ton yours o( my life if I hud only eleven to live, to hear you say you love ma and you know i t " Marie colored with delight; this was the strain she loved to hoar; this was the sweetest music to those naughty little ears. "If you didn't know it there might be some hope for ma Fool that I am to tell you." continued Jean. "1 can't contradict you" laughed Maria but the laugh was not so merry us she meant it to be. and the tingers that grasped the milking stool trembled visibly. "Cruel! Coquette!1 muttered Jean beneath his breath. "Well, a lieu, Marie Lesage. You may search all franco and you will never find a man to lovo tho very earth you tread on." nd his blue eyes flashed fire as he vp f[ • Au revoir." said Marie lightly. "No—it is not au revoir, Let us understand each other for once, if you please, If we part to-night it is adieu forever. I shall go to Havre and get a berth on board some ship, going Heaven knows where, and never so long as I iiva Maria do I fiet foot in St. JSenier again. If I go to the bottom all the better." "For me?" interrupted Maria looking archly at him under long lashes. "For you?—Yes, for you. For if I were dead perhaps you would come to your senses; perhaps if 1 were lyling in my grave you would know what I know, now. In spite of all your scorn of ma Marie. 1 believe. nay, 1 am sure you love me, " said Jean. Marie trembled and turned paler, but ahaUhrew up her head haughtily as she replied: "1 like your conceit " "J wish you liked m a " said Jean dejectedly. "I dare say you think I shall cry rny eyes out when you are gone to sea. Well, go. mon cher. and we ahall sea Adieu," and Marie made h e r l o e r an elaborate courtesy and ran into the house, leaving the disconsolate Jean to his own reflections. He turned on his heel ana gave a farewell glance at La Metaira with •its thatched roof and dormer win dows, its rose* and its poplars, nil of •whioh be loved so well: he should inever see them tgain; the swa lows jwo ild come back again next spring Wd build in the eaves over,Maries window, but he—he would sever, never come back. The church was empty, and Jean having lighted a candle and said a prayer at the Lady altar, went into the confessional and knelt there, knowing the priest would come and ait as he always did. at half past six. Presently Jean'B devotions were disturbed by a step he would have recognized in Australia or Siberia as Marie's; it advanced up the aisle to the Lady altar, and there it stopped. Jean rose from his knees, and, peeping round the corner of the recess, looked to see if he was right though he had not a shadow of doubt on the subject Yes. it was Maria bhe sow wore a little straw hat trimmed with a wreath of rose-buds, and she nad removed her apron, and wore a little shawl round her nock. Her back was towards him, as she knelt with hands and eyes raised toward the statue of our Lady; she was evidently praying earnestly. Presently a stifled sob reached Jean s ears, then her shoulders began to heave her head sank on to her hands, and she sobbed wildly for some minutes. "I was right; she does love me after all; shall I go and comfort her? I dare not; she would scorn me as she has done so often. Oh, if I were only certain she loves me—if I could but be sure," thought Jean. Presently the sobs ceased, and, as the clock chi-ned half-past six Marie rose and came towards the confessional. As quick as the thought which occurred to hi.a Jean seated himself in the priest'8 placa in the middlo of the confessional* closed the. wooden doors and drew tho curtains. Marie was coming to confession; he would hear her and find out if she loved him- Marie advanced to the confessional, saw the curtains were drawn and concluded the priest was sitting, so she knelt down by the grating; after a moment's pause Jean drew back the sliding shutter o.ver the grating, muttered the usual blessing in Latin, and the unsuspecting Marie begau her confession. "Mon pera I am so miserable " "Why. my child?" said Jean wondering what on earth he should say when she had finished. ••liocause I have driven Jean Tissot to sea. He loves me, and I have served him as I served them all. I laughed at him. I cannot help it father. I am a coquette. It is ray nature. I want to make them love me. I love to hoar them say they love me, and then I laugh at them. Ah! but you were right, father. You told me i should do it once too often; 1 have done it now. 1 shall never laugh-again." said Marie with a sob. "Did you love him then?" asked that wicked Joan. •Love him? I am dy ng of lore for him. I shall die unless he comes back- I can not live without Jean. Oh! father. I never loved any man but Jean; he is my tirst and my last Oh1 what shall I da?" What answer that ra^cfcl, Jean. would have made to this question wrung from Marie's heart in the agony of her remorse will never be known, lor at that instant the sacristy door opened, and simultaneously Jean jumped in, bolted out of the confessional almost into the old priest's arms as he came towards it, and down the aisle as fast as his legs would carry him. The priest amazed at such extraordinary conduct pulled aside the curtain to see if any one was kneeling at the grating, saw Maria whom he recogni ed, sobbing her heart out and seating himself in his part, asked in astonishment: ••My dear child, what does this mean? Who is that man!" "What man. father? I have seen no otie but you." soboed Marie. •But i have only just como into church." ••Haven't I been confessing to you, father?' &aid poor Marie in an agony of terror. "No, a young man in a blue jersey rushed out of the confessional as 1 came into church; it looked like Jean Tiasot" said the priest •Oh, father! I shall die of shame now. Oh wmt will become of me? I have been confessing to you. as I thought* that I loved him. Oh! I wish I wore dead. I would have died before I would have said what I have just been saying to any one but you" ••I'oor child Tell me all about i t " said Pere egrand. So poor Marie male h^r confession a second time, feeling more shame a d mortification than despair this lima •What shall I do, father?' she concluded. "Noihng; leave it to Jean to act. Rut promise me you will orgive him" Ma^ie crave tho required promise and shortly aftor the priest dismissed her. toiling- her to send Tnsot to him if she met h.,n, as he had committed ' n very grave sin. There were several people In the | church now waiting for the serv ce at ' -even but Jean was not amongst them. Marie finished her devotions, and thon tint k lowing wlret er she most hoped or feared io meet Jean. eft the churcu It was petting dink now, but it was lisrht enough for her io dist 'ijju ish Jean's handsome face wait.ng for , her in the porch as Bhe closed the church door. The hot blood rushed into her cheeks, her heart beat violently; the | end of all things seemed at hand; would the ground open and swallow her up? The ground showed no such inclination. A man's arms opened and folded her to his heart ••At last Marie! You can never deceive me again—I know the truth now. Mo, you shall not stir from here till you promise to be my wife. " whispered Jean k.ssing her passionately. "Let me go, Jean. Some one will see us." "I don't care who sees us. Promise." bald Jean. "I promise. Now let me ga And you go to Pere Legrand. he is waiting for you. Oh Jean, how dreadfully wicked you have beenu I don't know what the priest won't do to you." said Maria who thought by making the most of Jean's offense to cover her own confession. •Oh Marie! I am so happy; Ican't be sorry I did it Must I go to the priest?" ••I'ea unless you would ' rather go to Havre, " said Maria archly. "Well como and wait for m a " said Jean, who did not relish this visit. However, he went into the confessional and Marie waited for him. "I shan't play that trick again. Maria as long as I Jive, " he whispered, when he came out •There is no need to do it again " answered Marie. Aud Jean Tissot never went to sea. And Pierre and Jacques and Robert wondered what arts he had employed to win his bride; but that secret was one neither they nor any one else in St t>en.er ever discovered.—Sat Evening Post THE GENERAL ALWAYS COOL.

Sheldon Jackson has spent summer on the Tinted States revenue- cutter Dear, along the coast of Siberia, purchasing and transporting to Alaska a herd of one hundred and seventy-tive reindeer. The herd has been established at Port (i~acence, IJering Straits, Other herds have been turned loose at and near Onn Alaska. The animals appear to have thriven well and taken to their new haunts with every promise of rapid propagation and increase. It is held by authorities on the subject, that this introduction of- a j creature which takes the place, not only of the work horse of lower latitudes, but also of the milchcow and the ox, will eave the Esquimaux of Alaska from extinction, and will assist in populating and civilizing a region at present barren and uninhabited.—Demorest's Family Magazine. A convention, composed of delegates from the Middle and New England States, was held at Washington last week to urge Congress to take early steps toward building a ship canal across New York State-from Oswego to the Hudson River. A favorable report has been made upon a bill appropriating *100,000 to defray t h e cost of a survey of the route, and the friends of the measure are hopeful of its passage. It is intended that the proposed canal shall be twenty feet dee)), six feet more than the "Welland canal. Included in this project is a plan for a ship canal around Niagara Falls on the American side. AVith these water ways established, lakt* vessels would have ready^. communication with the ocenn ports. T h e friends of the enterprise predict momen- ' tous advantages from it. Not only would the cost of transposing grain, ore and lumber from the Northwest be materially lessened. but the canal would shut off the possibility of a similar enterprise on the part of Canada, thus preventing the diversion of an immence traffic to its ports. The project is one of great interest and promises to become a prominent subject of discussion at a day not distant. DO YOU WANT TO ADOPT A BABTt Maybe you think this 1s a new business.

FOR MEATS, FOWL, FISH, ETC., AND rom BAKING BREAD, CAKES AND PU00IN6S ILL FIRST-SUSS WORK GUARAHHED. HOWELL. MICH. Washington, Jan. 19, 18'JP. Public interest iu the Qmirantinc bill lias beon transferred to the House since the Senate passed tlte bill without a division, but wit!tout an earnest effort to pile up amendments on the bill. This bill is in some respects the most remarkable that was ever passed by the U. S. Senate, although it does not, as some have supposed, Hctually establish a system of national quarantine; but it gives the President more authority than was ever exercised by a President. He may, if the bill becomes a law, whenever in his discretion it is necessary to keep out contagious or infectious diseases, not only suspend immigration for any period not to exceed one year, but lie can also suspend the importation of merchandise from infected countries. The authority to take possession of State property when it becomes necessary to use the same for qvarantine purposes, without the consent of the State authorities, ^ives the national government all the power it covdd exercise under a National quarantine law. Notwithstanding the clause in the Quarantine bill giving the President authority to su-pnul immigration for any part ot: a year, whenever he deems it advisable, Senator Chandler says he intends to push his bill, providing for a suspension of European immigration fcr one\ year, through the Senate; but it is believed that this is merely a bluff on the part of the Senator to make the steamship lobby keep its hands off the Quarantine bill, which tie House Interstate- and .Foreign Commerce'1 committee is ii;v>v working to get before the House, through a special order froni the committee on lUik'rf. The renreso.ntattves of the steamship companies intimate that they will endeavor to kill the bill in the House, in s-wne manner not uani'.'d, but then1 are reasons for the belief that they also are mailing a bluff, to prevent action on the bill for omvyxiir's suspension of immigration, and that they are willing to accept the bill as it passed the Senate. The Indians that enlisted in the army are.dissatisfied with the life of a soldier, or at loast' 1() Cheyenne and Arapahoo Indians, who are members of Troop L. 5th U. S. Cavalry,aro. They have united in a letter to Indian Commissioner Morgan, asking him to use his influence to get them discharged from the army. They give as a reason their being tired of army life, and wishing to work their farms. The letter has been referred to the Secretary of War, who has it under consideration. Representative Holman has been persuaded to withdraw his opposition to the bill providing for the purchase of, and the opening to settlement of, the lands known as the Cherokee strip, and it is expected that the bill will shortly become a law. Mr. Holman said all along that lv's reason for opposing the bill was, that the condition of the treasury was not such as to justify paying out the $8,500,000 lequired* by the bill, and to meet this objection, the bill,was changed so as to call for only $500,000 cash, the remainder to be paid within five years, at the option of the government, with 5 : per cent interest thereon, as long as it remains unpaid. No change will be made by this Congress in the date for the meeting of Congress, and the inauguration of President, the House defeated the resolution pro/idin^ for the c'mnge by a vote of 1U to 40. Til.* reported action of the Pennsylvania and the Reading railro ul companies in insisting that their employes, take their choice between leaving the labor organizations and losing their positions, has stirred up some feeling in Congress. Representative Miller, of Wisconsin, hfjs introduced in the House a resolution authorizing the committe on labor to inquire and report whether there is any remedy to prevent such outrages upon people who are obliged to laboj*. For the second time in less than nine months the Vice President's desk in the Senate chamber was yesterday presided over by Cardinal Gibbons, of the Roman Catholic church, arrayed in his impressive canonical robes, and accompanied by the insignia of his position. The first time was last May, when the'Cardinal conducted the funeral services of the late Senator Barbour, of Virginia, and yesterday he was there, assisted byBishop Keane, of the Catholic University, and a half-score of priests, to conduct the funeral services of Senator Kenna, of W. Virginia, who died here Wednesday morning after a long and painful illness. The iloor and galleries were crowded to their full capacity, and few who were present will ever forget the scene. Gen. Benjamin F. Butler, who was for about a third of a century one of the most picturesque figures in American politics, and who was regarded as one of the ablest lawyers of the country, died here Wednesday morning of heart disease, after about an hour's illness. There Lj_muHi talk in Congress about silver legislation at the present session, but unless there is more "getting together"' than there is now any sign of, it will end in talk. ITTGRS! UTTSRS!

MORE thought is given to the question of annexation by Canadians now than at any previous time. Old prejudices against this country have so thoroughly worn away that if Canada does not come to us politically, it is certain that a large part of its people will soon come individually. A daily paper, the Sun, has been started in Toronto to advocate tho annexation movement, The province? of Quebec is the one where the feeling for annexation is strongest, but should Quebec join the states, Ontario must follow, as its way to the Atlantic ocean would then lie in foreign territory. I knew a black and tan terrier years ago. He lodged in the name house with me. writes Jeroma K. Jerome in the Idler. He had appropriated the front hall for hia sleeping apartment, and ha took his meals with the other lodgers, whenever they happened to be having meals. At 5 o'clock he would take an early morning1 snack with young Hollia, an engineer's puplL who had to get up at i-.bO aud make his own coffee so us to be down at the worics by six. (1 used to think I would like to be an engineer until 1 met young Hollis.) At88U he would breakfast in a more sensible fashion with Mr. Blair on the first floor, and, on occasions would join Jack Gad but who was a late riser, in a deviled kidney. 1-rom then till about o, when I generally bad a cup of tea and a chop, he regularly disappeared. Wliere he went and what he did. between these hours nobody ever knew. Gadbufc swore that twice be had met him coming out of a stock-broker's office in Tbreadneedle street* and, improbable though the statement at first appeared, gome color of credibility began to attach to it when we reflected upon the dog's inordinate passion for acquiring and hoarding coppers. This craving of his for wealth was really quite remarkable. He was an elderly dog, with a great—almost an exaggerated—sense of his own dignity; yet on the promise of a penny, 1 have seen him run after his own tail until he didn't know one end of himself from the other. He used to teach himself tricks and go all round the house in the evening from room to room performing thorn, and when he had completed his programme he would sit up and beg. Onoe outside our door I saw him' •landing in a crowd watching a performing poodle attached to a hurdygurdy. The poodle stood on his head and then with his hind legs in the air walked round on his fore paws. The people laughed very much and when afterward he came among them with his wooden saucer in his mouth they ga e freely. Our dog came in and Immediately began to study, in three -day*-be-could-stand on hia—head and walk around on his front legs, and the first evening he did so he made Bix-pence. He knew the value of money, did that dog. If you held out lo him a penny in one hand and a threepenny bit in the other he would snatch at the threepence and then break his heart because he could not iret the penny aa well, Now and then he would spend a little, but not often. He was desperately fond of sponge cakes, and occasionally, when he had a goud week he would indulge himself to the extent of one or two. He would wa,lk into tho shop with his penny in his mouth well displayed and a sweet and lamblike expression in his eyes. Taking his stand as near the cakes as he could get. and fixing hia eyes affectionately upon them he would begin to whine, and tho Bhop-keeper, thinking he was dealing with an honest dog, .would throw him one. To get the cako he was obliged, of course, to drop the penny, and then began a struggle between him and the shopkeeper for the possession of the coin. The man would try to pek it up; the dog would put his foot on it and growl savagely. If he could finish the cake before the contest was over he could snap up the peuny and bolt. 1 have known him to come home gorged with sponge cakes, the original penny still in hia mo iih. So notorious in the neighborhood did this dishonest practice become, after a time, that the ma ority of the local, tradesmen refused to serve him at all. Then he took his custom further afield into districts where his reputation had not yet penetrated, and ha would pick out shops kept by nervous fernales and rheunatic men. He had been performing one evening in Gadbut's room whero a fevt of U» were sitting smoking and taking. and young Hollis, being in a generous mood had thrown him. as he thought, a sixpence. The do# grabbed it and retire 1 underneath t e sofa. This was an odd 1hln<» for him to do. and we commented upon it. Suddenly a thought occurred to Hoi lia and he took out his money and began counting it •By ove'" he exclaimed "I've given that little beast half a sovereign. Here. Tiny!" But Tiny only backed further underneath the sofa, and no more verbal invitations would induce him to flt'r, BO we adopted a more pressing plun and coa ed iiim out by the scrntT of his neck. He came an inch at a time, growling viciously and holding Hollis1 half sovereign tig t between his teeth. We tried swuet reasonftbles at first We oiered him tuvpence in exchaujje. He looked Insulted and evidently considered the proposals as tantamount to our think* Ing him a fool* We made it a •hilling, than a half crown; he seemed only bored by our persistence. ••I don't think you'll ever see It again, Hollia," remarked Gadbut laughing. We all thought the thlnpa very good joke, all except young Hollia. Ha on the contrary, seemed annoyed, and, taking1 the dog from Gudbut mac!a aa attempt to pull the coin out of its mouth. The dog. true to his lifelong principle of never parting if he could possibly help it held on like grim death, until feeling1 that his little earnings were slowly but surely going from him, he made one final desperate effort and swallowed tha mousy. It stuck in his throat and he began to choke. hiollis rushed into his room and got a pair of long pinoera and the rest of us held the little miser while he tried to relieve him of the cause of hia suffering. But poor Tiny did not understand our intention*. He still thought we were seeking to rob him of his night's taking* and he resisted vehemently. His struggles fixed the coin firmer, and in spite of our efforts he died—one more victim, among many thousands, to the fierce fever for gold. DARWIN'S THEORY APPLIED. How m Berlin ProfvMur Succeeded In Drowning m Pet Herring. In Berlin there lives, says the Indepedanoa Roumalne. a savant who ii an ardent votary of the theory of evolution. Not long ago, when at the seaside, he caught a live herring on which he resolved to test the accuracy of. the Darwinian doctrines. Every day the gentleman took a spoonful of sea water out of the aquarium in which he had placed the herring, substituting iu lieu thereof a spoonful of fresh water. He continued this process until the aquarium contained nothing but freeh water. Its occupant was then oonuierned to a large glass bowl. The herring continued live and healthy. Still our learned professor had by no means completed his investigations. Every day he took a spoonful of fresh water nut of the bowl until not a drop was left A bird CATHOLIC ARCHBISHOPS WAIT* Archblsh»p IveUnd Prefers Barton* CJutrgot AgataH Aroabfahop Qorrlffna. Formal charges oi the gravest character have been prefehed against Eev. Michael Aagattine Corrigan, thj> Roman Catholic archbishop of New York, by a brother prelate. Hi» grac© of New York is acotifted by Eev. John Ireland, archbishop of St. Paul, of having engaged in an unlawful cofM>piraa$ to weaken or undo the effect of the pope's decisions in respect to ohurch matters in America and of having had recourse to methods unbecoming a bishop, designed to discredit and disgrace Archbishop Ireland and Mgr. Satolli, the papal delegate to America. These charges, duly formulated, are now on their way to Rome, where they will be presented to the highest tribunal in the Roman Catholic church.

M. Grenseflelder has just received FELL ELEVEN STORIES. Not Bone Was Ilroken, and He Retained Cons clous it BUS. FrankMoKiernan, the assistant bookkeeper of the St George Hotel Brooklyn, had as marvelous escape from instant death one day recently, says the New York Advertiser. He fell eleven stories from the roof of the hotel through the glass covering of the skylight and was picked up unconscious and without a broken bone. So far the doctors have not been able to find any internal injuries. The shook to his nervous system ia very great and he is bruised up about tho right shoulder, where he struck, and upon the face and neck. Unless these injuries are complicated with some more dangerous internal ones, he will doubtless recover. Me tiernan. was on the roof of the St George to watch the naval parade just before the accident Th« hotel has been built up gradually, and there are f ur or five wings, each with a roof of a different height and formation. One of those had been set apart for guests of the hotel and anoiher for ihe help. Both were crowded. The roof upon which MeKiernan was standing is one on which no one isallowed, probably on account of danger to the skylight which takes up nearly the whole length of the roof and a width of four feet Several girla got hold of tho keys to the trap door admitting to tho roof. Me- Kiornan found it out and went up with them. No one else was on the roof, though tho othors were crowded with people. When the parado was over McKiornan turned buck in a hurry to go down to his work again. He had to cross tho skylight to got to the trap door. A narrow beam crosses the glass covering about midway in its length, a id the girld and MeKiernan had used that in crossing the first time. Iu going back tho book-keeper either forgot it or thought he hadn't time to walk over to it. At all events, he stepped on the glass and tried to got across that way. There was a crash, and MeKiernan disappeared 4hrous;h the broken ^glass. His body hit the sides of the narrow shaft once or twice, and then struck on the xinc bottom of the shaft more than a hfuncired feet below. He had fallen with such force that two beams, four inches in thickness, which supported the inc and formed the ceiling of a room directly beneath, wore snapped, and a big dent was made in the . inc covering. Fortunately MeKiernan struck on the front of his shoulder. He began culling for help as soon aa he landed. He was soon taken out from his uncomfortable po8 t on by employes of the hotel and taken to room No 6. Dr. E. C Henry and Dr. PolaK were summoned and made an examination, but could discover no dang rous in,juri»s. MeKiernan is t'2 y^ars old. and has a wife and two young children living in Mate street, . rooklyn. lie has been engaged for two years or--, in ore at the hotel, ami was very popular there. He was somewhat, nearsighted, which may be B partial e<- planaiion o hia stepp ng upon the glus-i instead of going around to tho crossing Denm. ver; now and then it would utter a cry of vexation when the professor caressed it too roughly or failed to supply It at the proper time with the little patties specially prepared for the interesting creature. The herring grew sleek and fat but after a few weeka its 'tamer" noticed that it exhibited signs of melancholy. The professor spent hours in trying to fathom the cause of these unhappy symptoms on the part of his protege. At length he disco.ered that the creature was suffering from indigestion; it had evidently ruined its stomach by a too free indulgence in pastry. "Donnerwetter!" the philosopher exclaimed; * I quite forgot to gi e the animal ^mething to drink!" He quickly tilled a large wooden bow] with water and put it in the cage. Next morning on going to inspect the cage the learned gentleman found the creature dead; it had dipped its head in the water trough—the herring was drowned! ONE TIME ALL AROUND. T h e World Should He Divided Into Twenty-Four Zones. Traveling has been made so easy and rapid of late that some systematic arrangement of international time has become almost a necessity. It is well nigh impossible to remember the exact diilerence between the times of two places, says l'earson's Weekly, as there are usually a lot of odd minutes to take into consideration. This is a great nuisance for the traveler, though it would hardly do to suggest that the time should be reckoned the same at the same moment all the world over; we are so accustomed to have the sun high up in the sky at 12 o'clock that such a drastic change would he^oo great a shock to our feelings, iftit a proposal has been made by which the time at one place can be easily comparable with the time anywhere olsa For this purpose the world would be divided into twenty-four y.ouea; each zone would have its own time, which would of course differ by one hour from that in the next zone. This certainLy seems worth considering, and if it could bo satisfactorily arranged would be extremely convenient to travelers and for telegraphic purposes. Moreover, the time at any place fwould never differ by more than half anhour from the mean sun time, ero that it would still be 12 o'clock when tho Bun was at its highest point. North America is already divided on this principle into tive zones, the moat easterly of which is four hours after Greenwich time, and the time (g oalled •-international. " The others in order are ••Eastern." "Central' 1 "Mountain" and "Pacific" times, differing successively by one hour. Km urn. Rings of Italian workmanship are remarkably beautiful.

Hudson, who says he spent two and a half years as a convict miner in the coal mines in and near Briceville, Tenn., related to Chief of Police- Deiteh, of Cincinnati, O., a horriW© itory of the treatment accorded the- ;onviets. He says that if the men fail <o get out the required amount they ire beaten with an instrument which rery much resembles the Russian cnout. All are whipped, no matter if ill but one or two did their share. He jlaims he has seen convicts die from ;his beating and Hudson is himself a mass of scars. Every cut of the knout iraws blood. Two men he had known to commit suicide to avoid punishment, and others have been known to pull great pieces of siate down upon them* selves so that they could not work in the mines. Hudson's story is on a line with that of an eminent professor of national repute, who recently investigated the Tennessee system, and described it as worse than Siberia, a veritable hell on earth. 300 Girl* In a Burning Building. Fire was discovered in the six-story building, Nos. 4.J to 47 Elizabeth street, New York city, occupied on the first three floors by furniture dealers and neckwear manufacturers. The structure was completely destroyed and a loss of $250,000 sustained. The fire was discovered by the elevatof man, in the third floor of the building, and he quickly gave the alarm to the 300 employes. Many of these were girls, and there was an immense panic among* them.

With that she left him. W hen Miss Penleath entered the room 1 hated her; when Bhe left it I admired her. He drew a d^ep breath as sho left the room. "Mon Dieu! what a transformation!" he said aloud. "And all this was mine—my own! And 1 have thrown it away for what? For sixty thousand pounds which is tied up beyond my reach, and a wife who is not my wife, and who I hate as I did not think it was in me to hate anyone." At these words a dumb cry broke from my heart, my limb* trembled under me, a great light surged up before my eyes, and. had 1 not «upported myself against a pillar. I should have sunk to the ground. It was one of those supremo moments of which no life can hold many. When, after a little space. 1 came back to a sense of time and .place, there was a great "void at my heart. Of my i o e for Vivian Durvill which had so filled my existence, nothing wus left but n handful of ashes. When next my eyes took in Vivian he was in the act of crossing to a writing table on tho far sido o the room. Here he seated himself and made as I though ho were about to write.

He picked thom unopened the case, stared at its contents for a fevr moments, and then, with a sneer, replaced it on the table. Next he took the letter from its envelope, which had already been opened, and began to read it Hut scarcely had he done so before I had a consciousness of tho conservatory door being opened again and of some one coming in. Next instant I had drawu back out of sight behind the clump of tropical plants. The person, a man, came forward quickly and without hesitation, as though he were familiar with tha place, his footsteps making :» soft pitpat on the asphalt, but not loud enough to be heard by any ouo in the room. Urasping the'portiere with one hand, he stood as if turned to stone, his eyes ti.xed on Viviau. Ho was a young man. handsome, and of a dark complexion. There was something about him, I know not whnt» which put mo in mind ol Miss Penleath. It may be that ho was her brother. A moment later, and ho sprang forward into the room, snatched the letter from Vivian shand and struck him sharply on th^face. "Cur and sneak!" he cried; • now I know you for what you are." W hat followed was tho work of hnlf a minute. At sight of tho stranger a ghastly pallor overspread Vivian's faco. Ho reeled back when str.ick. but only for a moment. Tho no\ t ho had felled tbo stranger to tho ground by a blow from his clenched fist. The latter was on his feet in a second, and at once the two closed in a florco struggle. Then tho lamp was overturned, leaving the room lighted by a couple of wax candlos only, and the noxt thing I made out was Vivian stretched 011 his back on the floor, and the stranger Standing over him. Then tho latter. seizing the miniature case, thrusts it into his breast-pocket, and without another look at Vivian, clashed back through tho portiere, passing within a couple of yards of where I wrtvs standing, and made a hurried exit by the way he had come, Vivian rose slowly to his feet, with the air ol a man stunned and dazed. he had struck The first thing he did was, with a shaking band, to pour out a quantity of neat spirit and drink it off. Impelled by some Influence which I was powerless to resist; and having no conscious motive of so doing, I went slowly furward into the room. ••Vivia n DarvilL" I said. "I have been a witness of your interview with Miss Penleath—with the woman who is your rightful wife. All is known to me. From this hour you and I are strangers to each other." He stared at me, drawing his breath slowly and as if with an effort A cold, cruel light shone in his eyes, and when he spoke it was with a concentrated venomous bitterness. ••So . "he said, "you have chosen to play the spy. It is well done — very well done.' I hope you are gratified by what you have heard. It Is not my fault if you are n ot Her I love, and ehall love always. You I hate and hare hated from the first \ o u held over me the threat of disgrace and ruin —you forced ma to go through a form of marriage with you which I knew at the time^o be a farce.* isovf you have your reward." Ste p by Btep I had drawn nearer him w h le he was speaking; there, within a >ard of my haud gleamed a dagger. Hardly had the last words loft his lips before my fingers had locked themselves over its . handle. One swift straight blow, and the deed was done. He tlung up his arms, bis breath came in two great gasps, followed by a choked, gurgling cry. his body swung half round, and then he fell prone on his face—dead I tlung the dagger from me, drew down my veil, and walked quietly away. 1 have nothing to regret Such men as Vivian Larvill have no right to live. CHAPTER XVIL Haunted. April 10. noon.—Colonel Bernago and Miss Penleath have been and gone. The colonel's card was brought me while I was making a pretence of breakfasting. He had come to break to me the news of my husband's death (what a mockery it was. had he but known!) and had brought his niece with him, probably under the supposition that I might stand in need of a woman's oSlices after the tidings h al been told me. If such were the case, he was soon to be disabused. Still, my heart beat a little faster than usual and I thought it best to steady my nerves by taking a few of my ••drops " before going to an interview at which both my words and looka would have to be carefully guarded. I could see that Miss Penleath was trying to sum me up in her mind; but I natter myself she went away as ignorant as sho came. It was not in me to let her'go without one stab at her. 1 told her that I felt sure that* in coming to see me at such a time, she had been actuated by no feeling of vulgar curiosity. He r sudden flush and the spark which shot from her eyes told me that my arrow had not failed of its mark. Ah. what a relief it was when I saw the last of her and tho colonel! April 20. —Yesterday afternoon I wrote to Vivian s brother, a Lincolnshire rector. (B y the way. I'm not sure that 1 know what a rector is, except that it is some o.fice in connection with the Knglish church). Karly this morning I received a telegram from him, stating that ho would be with me in the course of the day. And now I havo a strange ttiing to record. Dykes has kept me supplied with newspapers as they have, come out (Who so interested in them as I?) Yesterday what is called in Kngland the inquest was heldon VWs body, when astounding to relate, a verdict of wilful murder was brought in against a young man of tho name of Koden Bosworth. This Koden Bos worth seems to have been a sort of protege of the colonel. He was an artist, and lodged in an old tower close to the house. In his rooms were found a blood-staiued coat, and, strangest of all. the very weapon with which the deedv was done; while the young man himself has disappeared and gone no oneknows where. April "24.-The funeral took place yftsterdny. It is not tho custom in Kngltind for femalos to attend such functions, and 1 was glad to be spar-ed the necessity for doing so. The rector's wife, a weak-minded, spiritless creature, was bathed in tears nearly the whole day. For my part I found not a single teur to shed. I believe they look upon me bore as little bettor than a heathen. 1 shall r e m an a few days lon<re:- aftor which I shall bid good-by to England forever. May 2. I have changed my mind about leaving England. I nave found a very pretty co,ttaga ornuo which 1 havo taken for a terra of six months. The good, wellmoaning people at tho rectory (in fact, they are fnr too good for poor mo) were very kind in their way. but it wn« a way that to me wovild soon havo become wholly intolerable.

The law* pers on both sides agree that there was justice in every ruling he made, and the settlement which he affected was a stroke for humanity which it is doubted that any other judge in the state could have brought about.— Owosso Argus. The Judge is gaining many friendg wherever he goes. No mistake was made in selecting him as judge for this district. The two greatest stamp collectors in the world were M. Philippe Ferrari son of the late Duche^se de Galliera, and the czar, wnSse^collection is said by ex'perts to be worth 3,000,000 francs. He began to make it when a czarowitz, and has been adding to it ever since. M. Ferrari, who cast away a fortune, or rather several fortunes which he conceived to be ill-gotten, and said he had no right to inherit, hoards stamps as misers hoard money. He has quantiti«s which he says will be invaluable to his heirs, should he live to a great age,—London Truth. Livingston Lodge, No. 76, F. & A. M. was reorganized on Tuesday evening and the following officers installed: W. M. s. w. J. W. S. D. J. D. Treasurer Secretary Stewards, Tyler The If. F. Sisrler V. A.Sigler G.

Govier of Howell Lodge, assisted b}'several of his officers. In spite of the inclemency of the weather a good attendance was secured, and Livingston Lodge re-opens under very auspicious circumstances tor a prosperous year. The Lewiston (Me.) Journal quotes what a 16-year-old girl says about young men. "Why," she says, "do the young men of Edgeoomb do so much loafing? Go to work! Push ahead! 1 am but a young girl: I have clothed myself and got money in the bank, and only sixteen years old. I lav up more money every year of my life than any boy or young man within a radius of three miles of my home. When they get a dollar they go to a dance, and go borne a dollar out. My father is able to support me, but I choose to support myself. And never put your arm through the handle of a rum jug." We should say that this is a good example and good advice for any young lady.

Bennett. MRS. V. C. BKNNETT. ftlns. A. S. LELAXD. Eastern Michigan Asylum, Pontiac, Michigan. Jan. U, 189:3. MRS. LACTRA LELAND, Daar Madam :- Mr. Leland has just been here, and at his request I write you some of the details ot your son's death. Mr. Bennett was very anxious from the first that the opium should be entirely withdrawn; and as he seemed to be so much in earnest about it, and to have a fair constitution, his wish was unhesitatingly acceded to; as in our experience here, unfavorable consequences have never followed the abrupt withdrawal in young and vigorous people. He seemed to bs so much in earnest in his desire to cure himself of his habit, and that as speedily as possible, that even when medicine was given, him to secure sleep the night before he died, he hesitated to take it, fearing that it contained some form of opium. Of course he suffered considerably from the inevitable results of the deprivation of his accustomed stimulant; but whenever questioned about himself he always spoke hopefully and showed a great deal of fortitude. He invariably said that he was doing as well as could be expected and had no doubt about his ability to pull through. On Thursday night it was suggested to him that he lie in Ved on the following morning, instead of getMng up at the usual hour. He then said that he did not think that this would be necessary, and in fact, when rising time came next morning he did not seem to care to remain in bed much longer than had been his custom. He took yery little breakfast that morning eating only a mouthful or so of fish. About eight o'clock he walked down to the wash-room, where the attendants were shaving their patients, and was himself shaved by them. During this process he talked with them in as good spirits as at any time, even laughing and joking with them about himself. At this time he said he was all right and that he would be over his trouble in a few days. It was on Thursday that diarrhoea set in, for which medicine was being given to him. After shaving, he asked for a duse of this medicine, as his bowels were still loose. He walked with the attendant to the latter's room and took his dose. Almost immediately after this he vomited. He then complained of feeling very strangely, and walked into his room, and threw himself on the bed. His attendant noticed his extreme pallor, and summoned his physician. The latter happened to be on his way to the hall, and saw Mr. Bennett within a few minutes after he has thrown himself on the bed. He was then unconsious and gasping. Before stimulants could be give to him hypodermically he had died. The immediate cause of his death was, of course, heart failure, induced by the vomiting. His death, coming so suddenly, was a great shock to his attendants and to all, as it was entirely unexpected, and there was nothing in Mr. Bennett's condition to forecast such a Termination. During his few days' stay in the Asylum he was pleasant and gentlemanly, and had won the regard of his attendants by his bravery and pluck. With much sympathy for yourself and his wife in your sudden bereavement, believe me, Very truly yours, C. B. Burnt, Medical Sup't. Pincknev, Mich. A large meteor was seen by several of our citizens on Tuesday evening passing from east to west, in the southern heavens. It was doing considerable biasing, and when it struck— somewhere—the sound was plainly beard. It lighted up like an arc electric light for an instant. Where it came from and where it went, no one knows. V Stile.

Does a lewal Banking Business has been crowded to its utmost capacity during the past week, and we have turned out work for the surrounding towns, a good sprinkling in our own village, and have also sent work to Calumet. This speaks for itself. A gentleman called on Mrs. Win. Hooker Thursday evening and asked for lodging. At first Mrs. Hooker thought she would not open the door, but she did so, and when he asked for lodging, she said, "Well, 1 guess Wm. Hooker can stay all night." Mr. Hooker has been running a mill out West, and returned home without letting: his folks know he was coming. His health is good, and he likes it there very much. A'Verv fine time was enioved bv those present at the prohibition banquet in Howell on Wednesday evening ot last week.

What's the matter of tke man who sells pork'? The stockholders of the Detroit Exposition met last week and decided to hold no exhibition this year.

Fred Brink, owner of the saw-mill which is to be erected here, has moved his family into the Jacob Teeple house on East, Main St. The rr ill will sotfn be in operation, and judging from the looks of the log yard, they will have to get to sawing soon, or there will be no room to set up the mill. The firm of W. I). Thompson k Co. have rented the H. Barton store, formerly occupied by F. E. Wright, clothier, and will soon tnovo their stock of s, groceries, etc., into it. They will also add .some new lines of goods which are much needed in this vicinity. In order to reduce their .>tock before moving, they are going to have a two week's sale, which will commence next Saturday/ Itead their adv. on page 8. A large aim brilliant meteor passed over this place on Tuesday evening, illuminating the sky with the bril liancy of an electric light. It passed along less than 100 feet from the ground, and exploded and dropped in a field about two miles west.—Fenton Independent. We are inclined to think, Bro. John, that instead of lighting near Fenton, this same ball of fire is reported a good many miles to the south of that place. . In the past few years Hood's Sarsapunlla Calendar has become such a favorite, that the people anticipate its annual appearance with pleasure.

A load of young people from East Putnam went through this place on Monday evening to attend the singing school at Anderson. The school house at that place must have been crowded. Mrs. John Smith, of Munith, died on Saturday last. The funeral was held, at that place on Monday. Mrs. Smith was a former resident of Pinckney. J.

Hut U lirought up with a Turn In Quick Tune—A Itmtnlun Military Train Iturnt whilo In Motion anrl 41» Soldiers tire Cremated Mlsot'llmieuua <J«MHMUI New* Cable from Cairo: The Khedive of ^ffypt has changed his ministry without having obtained the assent of tho Hritish authorities, who therefore decline to recognize, the new cabinet. Mr. t'romer, the liritish representative in Kgypt, informed the khedive that (ircat Itritian expected to be consulted by the Egyptian government in all the important steps proposed to be taken by it, especially in changes iu the military. The Hritish government, he. added,, would never sanction the appointment of Fakliri 1'ashu as president of the council. It is a well known fact that Kakhri 1'asha is opposed to the English occupation of Egypt. London cable: When the news of the formation of a new cabinet by tho Khedive of Egypt was received Mr. (Gladstone hastily summoned a cabinet council. The council resolved to treat the Khedive with the utmost iinnness. The ministers decided to inform him in a distinct manner that his position as ruler of Egypt depends upon the good will of Great Britain and that the British government will refuse to recognize the reactionary ministry that he has appointed. It is believed that Mr. Cromer's message attributed the Khedive's action to concerted Russian, French and Turkish intrigues. Later advices from Cairo states that after considering the ominous mood of the British cabinet the Khedive reconsidered his independent action and formed a ministry wholly satisfactory to the British lion. 4 9 WERE KILLED. A Train Load ot KuHHtan Soldier* Burnt While in Motion, With Awful KesultH. St. l'etersburg special: A most peculiar and fatal railroad accident occurred on the line between Slatoustand Samara. A train composed of several cars tilled with recruits was running from Slatoust to Samara, when llames burst from the foremost car. The train was going at full speed anil the tire swept backward, and in a few minutes all the cars were blazing. The recruits or at least as many of them ;is could, leaped from the windows and doors. Some of them landed uninjuiv'd in the heavy snow banks, while others who landed in the cleared track were killed. Those who were unable to get out of the cars were luirned to dentil, for the tram was entirely consumed. Some of the men were terribly burned before they jumped. When the confusion had somewhat subsided, the otlicer in charge of the recruits, who saved himself by jumping, called the roll of liis men. It was found that 4!) of them were dead and LO' terribly burned and otherwise injured. THEEE KILLED. Tumbles Down with I - l i t L i l K t ' M l l l l . A remarkable and fatal accident occurred at Philadelphia. A four-story brick business building, at .MT Commerce street, fell down, and of the seven men in it three were killed on the spot, one was badly hurt and the other three not even scratched. The building was occupied by Nixon Hros. as a paper warehouse and salesroom, and the three men who escaped unhurt were William Nixon, head of the firm; Samuel Uayles, treasurer, and C. S. Forsythe. a business caller. The first warning they had of the impending calamity was a cracking of .vooden beams and joists, jind then with deadly suddenness, the structure collapsed, the upper floors crashing down through those below.

Tbo personality of my friend Herkly Is the modt pleading of any physician I have ever known. The serene air of unatt'eotod goodness genuine «ympatby. and thorough knowledge that clinga about his heavy muscular frame and bis suioothly-sliaven, haud- 80rue luce, inspires at a glance an unfaltering trust within the bosom of his patient 1 have heard ladies declare that acute suffering has been known to depart immediately upon his entrance mto the sick room which in no doubt quite true. buch a man is worth more to a community than uny quantity of phyaic, and it was indeed a sad day for m all when the ^octor gave up general practice and became a specialist of tae eye and ear. But his increasing weight (not years. lor he is still ibis side of 4U) and. general liisinclina ion to all physical exertion finally tpped the beam iu favor of a specialism, where he can sit all day in a double-st ength arm-chair of extra width, and manipulate various pretty nickel plated appliances of more or less benefit and torture. Then, by-and by. a virgin field appeared open unto him from afar, and thus one and day he faded out from among us and was gone. We shall never know his like again—so skillful, BO genial, and so kuy. It was m.tiily inherent inertia I believe, that induced him to resign the office of cily coroner, to whxh ho bad boen unanimously elected, after a brief though somewhat remarkable service. The Kilfoyles nad nt one time rooms in the Huntington houso at wtiicn place both the doctor and my- Belf took our meals, hence, it not, iafrequently happened, being regular patrons. th;it the lour of us wore eeetod at a private table, making a really pieasunt family arrangement at least *o far as Mrs. Mlfoyle atid Dr. Beikiy wore concerned, for they Wcro good friotids. as, indeed, why ehou a they not be, when b >th were bo highly regarded by the majority of our bt.'^t Citi/.ons. . Now, the h )tel dinin^room-i of Kansas a:e mostly served by white waiter girls, who lire gen Ta'ly young. frequency pretty, and always . r nearly uiwa\s as good, w^ll-behaved girls as you wul liad anywhere in tho country. . 1 he girl who usually wai-ed on ouc table had been in tho Huntington employ for somo two or three years. She was perhaps. 2U years old. We called her Nettie and she was really a v - y remarkable young awur.ui'1. Her hair and eyes were verv black, and her skin a warm olive, tinged a little with tho red blood beneath. Had she possessed tho look that comes of inteliectu il culture she would have been hand- •ome. iier conversation was disappointing. Her grammar was eccentric, and her pronunciat on disastrous; but she was attentive and faithful, and we all made much of her. except Mrs. ilfoyle. who treated her in her usual magnificent manner, and wondered audibly how we could put ourselves on a level vntii people of that sort. Naturally. Nettie did not form any special attachment for Mrs. Kilfoyle; while lor Dr. Berkly. who had been a boarder at the hotel longer than any of us. she had conceived an unqualified worship. These facts woro e. ually evident, and it JS possible that tho latter may have iniluenced Mrs. r.ilfoyles treatment 0/ the g.rl. Upon second thought, however, this seeras improbable as it would bo almost unreasonable to suppose '*hat the elegant, Mrs. Kilfoyle could be jealous of an ignorant waiter girl. That Nettie should have heard the gossip of thi9 lady 3 former bad treatment of the doctor, and of her having wed Mr. Kilfoyle on account of his superior financial ability, is not to be wondered at, for the subject was a favorite one in the dining-room, and such matters in such places are discussed with a freedom ihat is at once energetic and surprising, the waiters being generally regarded as so many pieces of furni'uru This subject tho girl had no doubt frequently revolved in her mind as she regarded tho two, and. it appears, loved Mrs. Kilfoyle none the better for the shaking up she was supposed to have given the Falstftiti&n doctor la times past* , Just at what period she elected herself his avenger I cancot guess. I recollect looking at her one day ana turning suddenly cold at the murderj ous expression in her eyes, which i were fixed at that moment upon Mrs. Kilfoyle. It would be hard to form an opinion as to what Nettle really intended as a linal result o her plans, l'erhaps she merely wished to resent the supposed injury of lonjf ago. and revenue herself at the tame time for a j thousand petty indignities. Terhaps she went so tar as to believe that with Mrs. Kilfoyle out of the way she Nettie herself, might find lasting favor in her hero's eyes. No one will ever know just how far sho reasonnd. Une day in the late full Berkly and myself came to supper late. 'J he street lamps wore already lighted. .Just as we ascended tho steps of the hotel little Mr. Kilfoylo came rushing ; out ••Oh. doctor." he gasped, "I am so glad to have mot you. My wife is ; violently ill—taken immediately after supper. Corae at once." We passed in and the doctor ascended tho broad stairway as rapidly as his bulk would permit. Hollowed into tho hallway above and waited for h:m in the parlor. Fortunately the room was deserted and no one below \ had noticed anything wrong. I Berkley waa only gone a moment. ] then he came into the parlor, moving J more rapidly than I have ever known him to move before or since. "Run over, quick, to the office and get my stomach-pump. " he whispere I hurriedly •the woman ban got something down somehow that's got to { come up or she'll die in a few minutes. Stop at the drugstore and get some sweet oil— about a pint Say nothing to anybody, and hurry. " i 1 knew the run of the office and I was gone likij a shot. In five minutes 1 was back. Berkly met me at the door. • "Come in and help. " he said, ' 'we don't want any outsiders." For half an hour we worked with the woman, and it seerued every moment as if she would die under our I hands. Nobody as yet knew of hor ;,illness? all had happened so quickly. By-and by she grew easier and we suspended vigorous treatment, while I retired into the hall to await further orders. The rooms occupied by the Kilfoyle^ wiTi about ;••() feet from where the back stairway made a narrow, winding descent into the trunK room below. As 1 paced up and down the hall, waiting I saw t^omo ore come onco to the head of theso stairs. I t w.is a woman, and in the dim light looked like Xottie. Seeing mo she retreaied^-a little hastily, i thought but forgot all about it a moment later for ju^t thin tho door near me opened and ])r. 1'erkly came out •Well," I whimpered. "hoTT is she?" "Kusier. nut not entirely out of danger. I can't understand it. Must have booD somo poison in tlitj canned fruit. Such things happen. I'm going for some restoratives. Keep it nuiot We'll go down the back way." ho added, "so a* not to attract attention. ' \hi started down tho stops and I followed walking softly so as to not m;ikii a disturbance A.-* tho doctor got to whore tho stairs made a turn iio filled up almost tho entire opening, and in tho very dim light I could not sec bo^ond him but I hoard him suddenly stop them a voice which 1 recogni/ed us Nettie's. ••Is sho dead?" asked the voice in a loud whisper. The doctor was staggered at this unexpected question. ••Dead:1 ho repeated; "Who dead? who told you anybody was s i c k 3 ' I ad stopped siill and was listening w t h breathless eagerness. Evidently sho thought Herkly was alone. • Becoz I givo it to her." she *aid, savagely. "I know. beco/, it was me thtit—thot dona it; thet killed her for yob." "You killed her—you killed hor for me? What do you mean-"1 "The doctor spoke low but his voice was excited and hurried. ••Beco/, she went back on yeh ouc't fer a richer feller, that's why. I heerd all about it. I swore i d lay 'er out an' d d i t ' Tho doctor was stupifiod for a moment at this astonishing confession, then he found word* "You fool " ho burtt out hoarsely; "you fool You have committed a murder on account of a lia U s all a lia I loll you —a lie.1. I never knew her unt;.l she wa-i married, and you have murdered her for i t You will be hung do you hear? You will be hung ^ ou are a murderer!" Then ho pushed past her I following, down into the deserted trunkroom beiow. I saw her cfouched down on the steps as I passed her face hidden, i-ho did not seem to notice that there were two of us. and that I hfid overheard. \ e pushed on through a narrow passageway that led to the rear into the alloy and fresh air outside. The doctor was more arouse 1 than 1 would have supposed was pos-iWe • Did you ever hear of such deviltry as that " he gromed "I think the woman will get through all right but I wanted to scare that she devil so she'll lHave the country. For God'a sake, don't breathe a word to anybody. I'll tee you by-and-by. I're got to got some restoratives now and hurry back. Stay down in the office; if anything should go wrong I may want to send you fo • help." Two hours later, as I sat trying to read. Berkly came down. 1 arose, and we went outside. ••She is all right," he said, when we got away from everybody; "she Uoem't know it was poison. Thinks something she ate did not agree with her. Arsenic must have been put in her tea. i.et's go somewhere and gef a drink; I'm all used up." We went to the docior's rooms, and tiilkod far into the night. ••Better stay with me to-night" lie said, us I aro»e to go. I was too tirjd to need a second invitation. We slept late. About 8 o'clock we were awakened by a loud knocking at the door. 1 jumped up hastily. The doctor, who was accustomed to such disturbance., only half rou-sud himself. "What is it?" he called sleepi'y. ••Want Doctor Berkly, the coroner," replied tho voice. (The doctor was still holding this oflieu at tho time). •What has happened!1 Who's dead^1 • 'Woman at the Huntington House " •<Jood (ioi! Who is it!J' cried Berkly. now thoroughly aroused. •One of the waiter girls—Nettie. they call her — found dead in her bed. Think it's suicide, but don't know any reason." And. later in the day. the coroner rendered a similar verdict.—Albert Bigelow rai;;£ in ttie National Tribune. SOLONS OF T H E PAST. Hume Famous I'nlvemlty i'rofcitMors ia Day* of Old.

THE GOVERNMENT TESTS ESTABLISH ITS ABSOLUTE SUPERIORITY. [Datafrom the latest Official (J, S. Government Report on Baking Powders, Department of Agriculture, Bulletin /j, page SW) i Royal is placed first of- the cream of tartar powders, actual strength, 160.6 cubic inches of leavening gas per ounce of powder. • Every other powder tested exhibited a much lower strength than the Royal, the average being 3$ per cent. less. Every other powder likewise showed the presence of alum or sulphuric acid. The claim that this report shows any other powder of superior strength or purity has been denounced as a falsehood by the Government 'officers who made the tests. • Avoid all baking powders sold with a gift# or prize, or at a lower price than the Royal, as they invariably contain alum, lime or sulphuric acid, and render the food unwholesome.

Dryden was seventy years old when he died. j Chancer seventy-two, Southey bixtynine, Wordsworth eighty. Sir Arthur Sullivan went one nipfht, after watching for hours at the dying bedside of his brother, into an adjoining room in which there was an organ. Upon seating himself before it he found the words to which he has given the noble setting, "The Lost Chord," the music of which he finished before he arose from the seat.

A ])inch of salt is \'ery valuable when you want it and can't uet it, and you then realize fully what the irrepressible small boy meant when he said, "Salt is the tiling that makes things taste bad when you don't put any on.'' There are lols (if curious things about salt, more than anyone not interested in looking it u p would imagine; and you may learn many farts about it that you never knew before, by reading tho charmingly written and charmingly illustrated article, "From the Depths of a Crystallized Sea,'' published in DemoiTst's Family Magazine for February. Another paper, "The Ice World," also very fully illustrated, tells all about glaciers, and how icebergs are formed; ''Celestial Gypsies" is especially apropos at this time, and is illustrated with pictures of noted comets; " H a r - nessing the Breeze" u;ives the boys some novel points about kites and how to use them; and from "China Marks" you can learn how to distinguish line china of different makes, for the exhaustive paper contains illustrations of over forty distinct ive marks.

EOPLE URCHASING RETTY ICTURES SHOULD ALWAYS CONSULT fladdack's I rices. I U FIRST-CUSS WORK GUIMRTLED. 4 WASHINGTON LETTER HOWELL. MICH. Washington, Jan. 26, 1893. Congress, or at least a goodly portion thereof, is just at present making a concerted bluff on the silver question. With a great flourish of trumpets, bills for the repeal of the present Bilver law have been favorably reported to the house and to the Senate, and people who only look at the outside of things may believe that the silver law is really to be repealed or modified But those familiar with the undercurrents of things Congressional know that the passage of either of these bills would be the greatest of surprises to Congress, individually and collectively. The reasons for this make-believe policy are easy to locate. The principal one is Mr. Cleveland's desire to have the silver law repealed, or at least that portion of it compelling the monthly purchase of 4,500,000 ounces of silver. This is the lever that makes the democrats active; they wish to stand well with the in-coming President, in order that their constituents may not get left out in the cold. The eastern republicans are natuarally inclined to be opposed to silver, and in addition they are being stirred to ^cftvTby by the great business interests of the big cities, which are loudly demanding the repeal of the silver law. This being the situation, why will there be no silver legislation, is a natural query. Simply because,, leaving the House out of the question entirely, there are enough Senators who will oppose it, to prevent its going through the Senate, and the men who are making tho loudest noise on this question are perfectly aware of that fact, as anyone else may be who cares to take the trouble to interview the Senators of all parties from the south and northwest; they make no secret of their intention to defeat silver legislation, and even if they cannot control an actual majority of tho Senate, they can easily, under the Senate rules, talk the proposed bill to death, and, mark the prediction, they will do it, if a serious attempt is made to pass it, which is doubtful. There is some very plain talk in the minority report of the House committee on Commerce, on the bill authorizing the Interstate Commerce Commissioners to allow railroad pooling in their discretion, which was prepared by Representatives Lind, of Minnesota, and Mallory, of Florida. "It is," the report says, "the first measure that has ever received the sanction of a committee of the House to make legal and enforceable at law, contracts for the division of traffic. I t proposes to legalize railroad wrecking and stock speculations by authorizing, not only agreements for the division and apportionment of earnings among the carriers themselves, but also by authorizing the carriers to divide and apportion these among other carriers. Under these provisions stockholders will be as much at the mercy of railroad managers as will the public. The Standard Oil Company, the dressed beef combine, and other monopolies can obtain rebates by contracts enforceable in the courts instead of by stealth as heretofore. The bill takes away the only safeguard we have had heretofore against railroad extortion." If an attempt be made to pass this bill, there will probably be some still plainer talk on the floor of both House and Senate. The House has put itself on record as favoring the election of Senators by direct vote of the people, by passing the joiat resolution authorizing the change, but if the determined opposition by the republcans of the house is an indication of the position of the republican Senators on the question its prospect for getting th rough the Senate is not so good as its friends might wish it to be. Senator Peffer not only wants Senators, but also Presidents and Vice Presidents elected by popular vote, and he made a long and able speech on the subject this week, showing that he had made a deep and careful study of the sabject His speech lost much of the attention it might have received, because of the arrangement of business befre the Senate, which compelled him to deliver it in sections as it were, a little every day for several days. The Chicago people who are here in the intesest of an amendment to the World's Fair act of the last session of Congress, permitting the opening of the World's on Sunday, have, to use a sporting expression, been "fought to a standstill," by the opponents of Sunday opening. The House committee having the matter in hand, of which Representative Dttborrow, a Chicago man, is chairman, is almost unanimous in favor of Sunday opening, but opposition has shown itself in so many quarters that the matter will not be pushed just now. A number of Senators have expressed most positively their belief that it would be an impossibly to carly Sunday opening through the Senate, even if it gets through the House. Still shrewd management may do much in the confusion of the closing days of the session.

Ait-ANTA, Ga., Jan 1&, 1801—The Kev. Dr. TalniaRC, whu Is now making u ten daya' tour of the Southern cities, prettcueu hero to-day. The throngs iu and around the audience hull were btyuud estimate. The subject chosen Wtto, "The Circle ui the Earth." the text tieiu,' Isaiah iO-.Zl: ' It 1« htj that, sitlcth upoQ the circle of the earth." While yet people though t tha t th e world was nat , ami thousand s of years before the y found out tha t it was round , Isaiah , in iuy text, intimate d the shape of it, God siltin g upon th e circle of th e earth . Th e most beauti - ful figure ia all geometr y is th e circle. God made th e universe on th e plan of a circle. Ther e are in th e natura l world straigh t lines, angles, parallelo - grams, diagonals , quadrangles ; but these evidentl y are no t God' s favorites. Almost everywhere where you will tind him geometrizing , you Had th e circle dominant , and if Dot th e circle, the n the curve, which is a circle tha t died youug. If it had lived long enough , it would have been a full orb, a periphery . Au e Hipse is a circle pressed only a little too har d at th e sides. Giant' s Causeway in Irelan d shows what God think s of mathematics . Ther e are over thirty-fiv e thousan d column s of rocks—octagonal , hexagona l pentago - nal. These rooks seem to have been mad e by rule and by compass . Every artis t ha s his moulding-roo m where he may make fifty shapes; but he choose s one shape as preferabl e to all others , I will no t say tha t th e Giant' s Causeway was th e world's mouldin g room , but I do say, out of a great man y tigurea, God seems to have selected th e oirole as th e best. "I t is he tha t sittet h on th e circle of th e earth. " Th e stars in a circle, th e moon in a circle, th e sun in a circle, th e universe in a circle, th e thron e of. Ged th e cente r of tha t circle. When men build churches , the y ough t to imitat e th e idea of th e great architect , and put th e audienc e in a oirole, knowin g tha t th e tide s of emotion roll mor e easily tha t way tha n in straigh t lines. Six thousan d years ago God flung thi s world out of his right hand ; but he did no t thro w it out in a Straigh t line, but curvilinear , with a leash of love holdin g it so as to brin g it back again. Th e world starte d from his han d pure and Edenic . It "as been rolling* OQ throug h region s of mora l ice and distemper . How long it will roll God only knows; but it will in due tim e make complet e circui t and come back to th e place whenc e it starte d — th e han d of God—pur e and Edenic . The histor y of th e world goes in a circle. Why is it tha t th e shippin g in •u r day is improvin g so rapidly?" I t is because men are imitatin g th e old mode l of Noah' s ark . A ship carpente r gives tha t as his opinion . Although so muc h deride d by small wits, tha t ship of Noah' s tim e beat the Majestic and the Etruria , and the City of Taris, of which we boast so much . Where is the ship on th e sea to-da y tha t could outrid e a deluge in which th e heaven and the eart h were wrecked, iandin g all the passengers in safety?—two of each kind of living creatures , thous - and s of species. Pomolog y will go on with its achievements.unti l after man y centurie s th e world will have plum s and pear s equa l t~> th e Paradisai - cal. The art cf gardenin g will prow for centuries , and after th e Downing s and Mitchell s of the world have don e thei r best, in the far futur e th e art of gardenin g will come up to th e arbor - escenc e ot th e year one. If the maker s of colore d glass goon improving , the y may in .sonic centurie s be able to make somethin g equa l to the. east window of York Minster , which was built in ]L'W). We are t>ix centurie s behin d those artists, but the world must keep on toilin g unti l it shall make th e complete circui t and come up lo th e skill of those very men . Jf th e world continue s to improv e in masonr y we shall have after a whifeV.perh.ap s after th e advanc e ofcenturie V morta r equal to tha t which 1 saw last summe r in th e wall of an exhume d English city, built in th e tim e of the Romans , sixteen hundre d years ago—that, morta r to-da y as good as th e day on which it was made , having outlaste d th e brick and the stone . I 6ay, after hundred s of years, masonr y may advanc e to tha t point . If th e world stand s long enough , we may have a city as large as the y had in old times. Babylon, live time s th e size of London . You go int o th e potterie s in England , and you find the m makin g cups and vases after the style of cups and vases exhume d from Pompeii . Th e world is no t going back. Oh nol but it is swinging in a circle, and will come back to th e style of potter y known so long ago as the days of Pom - peii. Th e world must keep on progressing unti l it make s th e complet e circvit Th e curve is in th e right direction , th e curve will keep on unti l it become s th e circle. Well, now, my friends, what is tru e in the materia l universe is tru e in God' s mora l governmen t and spiritua l arrangement . Tha t is th e meaning 1 of Ezekiel' s wheel. All commentator s agrea m saying tha t th© wheel mean s God' s providence . But a wheel is of no use unless it turn , and if it turns , it turn s around , an d if it tur n aroun d it moves in a circle. What then ? Are we part s of a great iron machin e whirled aroun d whethe r we will or not , th e victims of inexorabl e fate? No ! So far from that , I shall show you tha t we ourselves star t the circle of pood or bad actions , and tha t it will surely come aroun d again to us unless by divine interventio n it be hindered . Thos e bad or good action s may make th e circui t of man y years; but come back to us the y will as certainl y aa tha t God sits on th e circle of th e earth . Jezebel, th e worst woman of tho Bible, slew Nabot h because she wante d hib vineyard. While th e dogs were eatin r the body of Naboth , Elibh a th e prophr t put down his compans , »ud marke d a circle from thos e dogs clear aroun d to th e dogs tha t should eat th e body of Jezebe l th e murderess , ''Ira - possible!" th e peop'. e said; "tha t will never happen. " Who U tha t being" flung out of th e palace window? Jezebel. A few hour s after the y cam e around , hopin g to bury her. The y tind cnl y th e palm s of her hand s an d th e skull. Th e dogs tha t devoure d Jezebe l and th e dogs tha t devoure d Naboth . Oh, what a swift, what an awful circuit ! But it is bouietioiti b th e case tha t Una circle sweeps throug h a century , or throug h man y centuries , i'he world starte d with a theocracy for government ; tha t is, God was th e Presiden t and Etupero r of th e world- Peopl e got tired of a theocracy . The y said, "We don' t want God directl y interferin g with th e atfairs of th/ world; give us a monarchy. " Th e world had a mon - archy . Fro m a monarch y it is going to have a limite d monarchy . After a while th e limite d monarch y will be given up, and th e republica n form of governmen t will be every where domin - an t and recognized . The n th e world will get tire d of th e republica n form of government , and it will have an anarchy , which is no governmen t at all. And then , all nation s finding out tha t man is no t capabl e of righteousl y governin g man , will cry out again for a theocracy , and Bay, ''Le t God come back and conduc t the affairs of th e world." Every step, monarchy , limite d monarchy , republicanism , anarchy , only different steps between th e first theocracy und th e last theocracy , or segment s of th e great circle of th e eart h on which God sifs. But do no t becom e impatien t because you canno t see th e curve of events, and therefor e conclud e tha t God' s governmen t is going to break down. Histor y tells us tha t in th e making" of th e Pyramid s it took two thousan d men two years to drag one great ston e from th e quarr y and pu t it int o th e Pyramids . Well now, if men short-live d can afford to work so slowly as that , canno t God in th e buildin g of the eternitie s afford to wait? What thoug h God should tak e 10,000 years to draw a circle? Shall we take our little watch , which we have to wind every nigh t lest it run down, and hold it up beside th e clock of eterna l ages? If accordin g to th e Bible, 1,000 years are in God' s sight as one day, the n accordin g to tha t calculatio n th e 6,000 years of th e world's existenc e have been only to Go d as from Monda y to Saturday . But it ia often tn e case tha t th e re boun d is quicker , and th e circle is soone r completed . You resolve tha t you will do w'cat good you can . In one week you put a word of counse l in th e hear t of a Sunda y Schoo l child . Durin g tha t same week you give a lette r of introductio n to a young" man struggling in business. Durin g th e same week you make an exhortatio n in a prayer-meeting" . It is all gone; you will never hea r of it perhaps , you think . A few years after a man come s np to you, and says, "You don' t know me, do you?" You say, "No , I don' t remembe r ever to have seen you. " "Why," he says, "I was in th e Sabbat h Schoo l class over which you were th e teacher ; one Sunda y you invited me to Christ ; I accepte d th e offer; you see tha t churc h with two towers yonder? " "Yes," you say. He says, "Tha t i* where I preach, " or, "Do yoj see tha t Governor' s house ? Tha t is where 1 live." One day a man come s to you, and says, "Good-morning 1." You look at him and say, "Why, you have th e advantag e of me; I canno t place you. " He says. "Don' t you remembe r thirt y years ajro giving a lette r of introduc - tion to Moses H. Grinnell? 1' "Yes, yes, I do. " He 6ays, "I am the man ; tha t was my first step toward a fortune ; but I have retired from business now, and am ffiving" my tim e to philanthropie s an d public interests . Come np and see me. " Or a man come s to me and says, "I want to introduc e myself to yon. 1 went int o a prayer-meeting 1 in At ant a some years ago; I sat back by th e door ; you arose to make an exhortation ; tha t talk change d the course of my life, and if I ever get to heaven , unde r God I will owe my salvation t j you. " In only ten , twenty , or thirt y years th e circle swept out and swept back again to your own grateful heart . But sometime s it is a wider circle, and does no t retur n for a great while. I saw a bill of expenses for burnin g Latime r and Ridley. The bill of expenses says: One load of firs fajrots 3s. 4d. Cartag e for four loads of wood...2s . Item , a post. Is. 4d. Item , 2 chain s ,3s. 4d. Item , two staples fid. Item , four laborers , !?s. 8d. Tha t wns chea p tire, considerin g all the circumstances ; but it kindle d a light tha t shon e ah aroun d th e world and arouse d the marty r spirit, and out from tha t burnin g of Latime r an d Ilidley rolled th e circle wider and wider, starting 1 othe r circles, convoint - ing, overrunning , circumscribing , overarchin g all heaven-—a circle Kut what is tru e of th e good is just as tru e of th e bad. You utte r a slander against your neighbo r I t has gone forth from your teeth ; it will never come back, you think . You have don e th e mim all th e mischie t you can . You rejoice to see him wince. You say, "Didn' t I give it to him!" Tha t word has gone out , tha t slander - ous word, on its poisonou s and blasted way. You thin k it will never do you any harm . But 1 am »VHtelling tha t word, and I s«e it beginnin g to curve, and it curves around , and it is aimin g at your hear t You had bette r dodtfe it You canno t dodge it. Itrollsint o your bosom, and afier it, rolls in si word of an old book whtcn says, "With what mpasur e ye mete , it &hall be measure d to you again. " You maltrea t an aged parent . Yo1 begrudged him th e room in your nouse . You are impatien t of his whimsicali - ties and garrulity . I t make s vou mad to hea r him tell th e same story twice. You give him food he canno t masticate . You wish he was away. You wonde r If be is going* to live forever. He will be gone very coon . Hi s steps are shorte r and shorter . He is going to stop. But God has an accoun t to settle with you on tha t subject. After a while, your eye will be dim an d your gikH will halt , and th e soun d of th e grindin g will be low an d you will tell th e same : story twice, an d your childre n I will wonde r if you are going to live forever, and wonde r if you will never i be take n away. The y called you "father " once ; now the y call you th e "old man. " If you live a few years | longer, the y will call you th e "old ' chap!" What are thos e rough words with which your childre n are accost - ing you? The y are the echo of th e very words you have used in th e ear of your old fathe r forty years ago. What is tha t which you are tryin g to chew, but tind unmasticable , and your jaws ache , and you surrende r the attempt ? Perhap s it may be the gristle which you gave to your fathe r for his breakfast forty years ago? A gentlema n passing alon g th o stree t saw a son dragging his fathe r int o the stree t by th e hair of th e head . The gentleman,outrage d at thi s bruta l conduct , was abou t to punis h th e offender , when th e old man arose and said: "Don' t hur t him ; it's all right ; forty years ago thi s morning I dragged out my fathe r by th e hairo f th e head!" It is a circle- My fathe r lived int o th e eig hties, an d lie had a vary wide experience , an d he said tha t maltreat * men t of parent s was always punishe d in thi s world. Othe r sins may be adjo urne d to th e next world, but maltreatmen t of parent s punishe d in thi s world. The circle turn s quickly, very quickly, Oh, what a stupendou s though t tha t the good and th e evil we star t corne a back to us. Do you kno w tha t th * judgmen t day will be only th e point s at which th e circles join, th e good and th e bad we have don e coming " back to us, unless divine interventio n hinde r —coming back to us with welcome of delight or curse of condemnation . O, I would like to see Paul , th e invalid missionary , at th e momen t when his influenc e come s to full orb—his influence rollin g ou t throug h Anticch , throug h Cyprus, throug h Lystra, throug h Corinth , throug h Athens , throug h Asia, throug h Europe , throug h America , throug h th e first centux*y, throug h five centuries , throug h twent y centuries , throug h all th e succeedin g centuries , throug h earth , throug h heaven ; and at last, th e wave of influence havin g mad e full circuit , strikes his great soul. O. the n I would like to see him . No one can tell th e wide sweep of th e circle of his influence , save th e on e who is seated on the circle of th e earth . I should riot want to see th e countenanc e of Voltair e when his influenc e come s to full orb. When th e fatal hemorrhag e seized him at eighty-thre e years of age his influenc e did no t cease. Th e most brillian t man of his century , he had used all his facultie s for assaultin g Christianity ; his bad influence , widening throug h France , widenin g out throug h Germany , widenin g throug h all Europe , widenin g through , America, widenin g throug h the one hundre d and fifteen years tha t have gone by since he died. widenin g throug h earth , widenin g throug h hell; unti l at last the accumu - lated influenc e of his bad life in fiery surge of omnipoten t \vra'.: i will beat against his destroye d spirit, and at tha t momen t it will bo enoug h to make th e bliick hai r of eterna l darkness tur n white with th e horror . No one can tell how tha t bad man' s influence girdled th e eart h save th e one who is seated on th e circle of th e eart h —the Lord Almighty. "Well now, " say people in thi s axulience, "this in some respect s is a very glad theory , and in other s a very <sad one; we would like to have all th e good we have ever don e come back to us, but the though t tha t al1 the sins we have ever committe d will comebac k to us, tills us with affright" My brother , I have to tell you (rod can break tha t circle, and will do so at your call. I can brin g twent y passages of Scrip- J tur e to prove tha t when God for Christ' s sake forgives a man th e s^nsof his past life never come back. Th e wh<;el may roll on an d roll on, but you take your positio n behin d th e Cross and the wheel strikes th e Cro^s and is shattere d forever. Th e sins fly off from the circle int o the perpendicular , falling at right angles wit.i complet e oblivion. Forgiven ! Forgiven ! Th e meanes t thin g a ma a can do is, after some difficulty has been settled , to brin g it up again; and God will no t be sn mean as that , 'iod' s memor y is might y enou-gfi^t o hold all th e events of i he ages, but ther e is one thin g tha t is sure to slip his memory , one thin g he is sure to forget and tha t is pardone d transgression . How do I know it? I will prove it. "Thei r sins and thei r iniquitie s will I remembe r no more. " Com e int o tha t stat e this morning , my dear brother , my dear sister. "Blessed is th e one whose transgression s are forgiven." But every circumferenc e must have a center , and what is the cente r of thi i heavenl y circumference ? Christ . Hia all the glory.

May 17.—I have already recorded how, on the morning Colonel Jternage visited me, I saw my husband a face peering at me over hia shoulder. Last evening he appeared to me again. It was after the shutters had been closed. I was bitting in tne lamplighted room trying to lix my attention on a novel when, happaniDg to lookup, I saw him there, sitting opposite to me. jThe figure sat facing me, staring full at me, its eyes wide open, glassy. unwinking—the eyes of a dead man with no speculation or purpose in them. The lips were a bluish purple, the tightly-drawn skin over the forehead looked like parchment, tho cheeks were sutikou. and the face was as that of ono who might have been a mouth or more in his grave. The mouth was twisted into that sneer which I remembered so well— which lifted one corner of the lip and moustache, and left visible oue sharp, white, woUish-looking tooth. It was thus that Viv used to look when in hia more evil moods. Immovable sat the figure, each dead-white hand grasping an arm of the chair. Rising. 1 crossed th« hearth and deliberately sat down iu the chair opposite. The moment, J had done so I saw tho ligui'e had seated itself in the chair 1 had just vacated. After staring at each other lor a few seconds I rose and went back to my first seat. The ptiantom did tho samo. Then 1 rang for i'aquita. "I feol lonely." I said to her as she entered tho room. "Sit there'—indicating the chair on which the figure was seated—"aud keep me company awhile." As she sat down the figure slipped out of the chair and, gliding round the table and so behind my chair, passed out of my range of vibion. That it was there behind rae I was , presently made conscious of by an in- Life is a problem which we describablo sensation—a sort of icebefore the last sad scene of alL whether the overdose of the narcotic from the effects of which she died was due to accident or design La a point as to which she alone could enlighten us.

Tru e he never was Presiden t Neithe r was Clay^ no r Webster. But th e Presidenc y could have adde d nothing 1 to the greatnes s of thos e men . Thei r name s will live in history . To follow the trai l of Blaine' s life from th e tim e he attende d th e village schoo l at West Brownville, Pa. , in th e early forties, to th e threshol d of th e Presidenc y is, however, th e purpose of thi s article . As most all rend - ers are aware, Mr. Blain e was born at India n Hill Farm , nea r West Brownville, Pa , on Jan . 31, 1830. His grand - fathe r was Col. Ephria m Blaine , on e ©f th e most dashin g patriot s of th e revolutionar y war. He fought for his countr y in a manne r so pleasin g to Oen. Washingto n tha t th e titl e of Colon eft was conferre d upo n him early in th e struggle which ende d so happil y for mankind . After th e war Col. Klaine , reduce d in pocke t (he gave his -all to th e cause of liberty) , retire d to Cumberland , Pa. , to pass th e remainde r of hia life amon g scene s of quie t an d repose . He had one son, Ephrai m Blaine, th e fathe r of Jame s Gillespi e Blaine . He moved from Cumberlan d to West Iirownville , Pa. , where he built t h e hous e where th e futur e statesma n was fcorn. It was th e first ston e structur e «ver erecte d west of th e Monongahel a river. I t is still standing , just as is seen in th e accompanyin g picture . At th e tim e of youn g BLaine' s birth , however, it looked somewha t different . Th e pictur e is from a phot o take n a year ago. Ephrai m Blaine bein g a man of educatio n was chose n Justic e of th e Peac e for West Brownville, and becam e a n influentia l an d honore d citizen . Some tim e before hi s appointmen t h e marrie d a Miss Gllleipie , daughte r of an Irish revolutionar y patrio t She, like her father , » Roman Catholic . A devoted wif« and mother , she molde d he r son's* religious views accordin g to th e views of his father , who was a Presbyterian . In tha t faith th e futur e statesma n grew up and worshiped , but his great affection for his mothe r compelle d him to respec t th e faith in which she lived and died. At th e age of 7 youn g Blain e began t o atten d th e village school . Late r on he attende d schoo l a t Washington , Pa . 11 is aptnes s soon resultedi u hi s bein g sent to the High schoo l at Lancaster . The principa l the n was William Lyons, LATEST POHTRA1T OF M.AINK. a graduat e of England' s great univer - sity a t Oxford ami an uncl e of Lord Lyons, th e celebrate d English diplo - mat , who was subsequentl y Grea t Britain' s ministe r in thi s countr y an d late r still he r ambassado r to France . l)ur - ingihis stay in Lancaste r youn g Blain e lived with his relative, Thoma s Ewing, and his daily companion s were th e hitter' s thre e sons, Hug h B., Thoma s and Charle s Ewing, all of whom afterwards becam e celebrate d men . H e remaine d at schoo l only abou t two years, by which tim e his extraordinar y pro - gress in his studie s enable d him to pass th e matriculatio n examinatio n to Washingto n College in his nativ e county , from which abod e of learnin g he graduate d in 1847, bein g less tha n IS years old. Hi s master s at college reporte d tha t he had been at all time s an exceptionall y diligen t student , naturall y unusuall y gifted, it is true , but always supplementin g his inbor n talent s by har d and unremittin g study. He showed th e greatest proficienc y in all branche s of mathematica l study, and even mor e especially in politica l econom y an d logic, and it is easy to trac e th e influenc e of th e latte r two studie s throug h his politica l career . The immediat e result of thi s early diligenc e an d applicatio n was tha t he graduate d sharin g th e honor s of th e occasio n with only on e othe r student . Th e oratio n which lie delivered at th e commencemen t exercises was entitle d "Th e Dut y of an Educate d American " an d in its pages it was easy to see tha t th e yout h felt th e dutie s of citizenshi p to be no mer e sinecure , a fact which in his case wus well proved by subsequen t events. After leaving college in spite of his yout h Mr. Blaine was engaged as a. teache r at th e Western Militar y Insti - tut e a t Blue Lick, Kentucky , 'vhere he remaine d for abou t th i ee years am i proved himself to be of great value both as a pedagogu e and a disciplin - arian . Durin g his stay ther e ho mad e the acquaintanc e of Miss Harrie t Star - wood of Maine , who had been sent to the seminar y at Millersburg , Ky., for an education , and th e acquaintanc e resulted in marriage . Ther e can be no doub t tha t his wife ha s always been a great helpe r to him . It is tru e tha t she has non e of tha t peculia r magnetis m which characterize d her gifted husband , no r did she possess the qualit y of makin g an d retainin g friends—indee d he r frigidity of manne r ha s always been muc h criticise d in Washington—bu t she did possess othe r an d mor e lasttin g qualities , an d as an earn - est an d encouragin g life-companio n her influenc e xipon her husband' s career is undeniable . Directl y after his marriag e he returne d to his nativ e I *'&% phi a a ad accepte d a positio n an a teache r in th e Pennsylvani a institu - tion for th e instructio n of th e blind where he remaine d unti l 1854. Ther e is in th e institutio n to thi s day a chai r occupie d by Mr. Blain e as teacher . A silver plat e on th e seat tells th e story as bhowu in th e accompanyin g cut.A year hate r foun d Mr. Blaine in th e Stat e tha t he was destine d to mak e famou s amon g th o sisterhood .

In th e formatio n of Nationa l Republica n politic s he also becam e influentia l at an unusuall y early ago. He was a delegat e to th o tirst conventio n in ]nr>t> , which nom - inate d Ot'n. .Joh n C.

LA He stumpti'o?th e Stat e of Main e for rYomon t in a manne r tha t surprise d tho followers of "th e Pathfinder. " Then , as in after years, his service to his part y was free, oven to th e amoun t of his travelin g expenses. The first public office ever held by Mr. Blaine was tha t of Commissione r of Stat e Prison s an d Reformatories . tie waa appointe d by Gov. Lo t M. . Morrlll , who ha d been readin g Edito r Blaine' s article s on the same subject iu th e Advertiser. Mr. Blaine accepte d th e trus t unhesi - tatingl y an d began to prosecut e th e itud y of criminalit y an d th e best method s of dealin g with it, with th e iaine thoroughnes s which heretofor e ijhanieteriite d all his public an d privat e accupation s an d movements . H e traveled throug h some fifteen State s of the Union , uiukiu g th e closest observation s of th e various method s of dealing with th e vicious an d crimina l classes, thia journe y resultin g in an elaborat e an d voluminou s repor t which embrace d man y suggestions an d recommendations , most of whicU were subsequentl y adopte d an d were strictl y enforced . Th e imme - diat e result was tha t institution s of this class in th e Stat e of Main e were at onc e put upo n a payin g basis an d so the y have remaine d ever since. Soon afterward , he was electe d to th o Main e Legislature , in which delibera - tive body he sat for th e years of '5'.), 'CO, Yd and 'G~, bein g Speake r of th e Hous e the latte r two years. Durin g thi s early perio d of public life he displayed th e most remarkabl e skill an d ability us a parliamentaria n and his keen logic and generall y brillian t method s of conductin g debate s mad e him th e observed of all observers in th e Stat e politica l ranks . I u 't>2 he was electe d as a membe r of Congres s an d he remaine d a membe r of tha t body unti l he was called from th e Senat e where he was still serving1 hi s first term , to take th e place of Secretar y of Stat e unde r Gauiiel d in 1881. As a membe r of th e Tuition' s highest parliamentar y body he immediatel y acquire d a reputatio n second to non e as a keen logician an d brillian t debater . He was Speake r of th e Forty-firs t an d Forty-secon d Congresses , an d was equall y successful as a presidin g officer. He was one of th e foremos t in sustain - ing all th e measure s of prosecutin g th e great civil war, as he. was also widely con nee tec} with th e various plan s for reconstructin g th e natio n which followed th e long desired peace . Indee d th o Fourteent h amen d meu t to th e constitutio n of th e Unite d Stale s is practicall y an embodimen t of th e views concernin g its subject matte r which Mr. Blaine offered to th e Hous e for thei r consideration . Shortl y after thi s event he mad e a terrific protes t against th e plan to pay th e nationa l debt in "greenbacks " an d unde r his effective leadershi p thi s bill was defeated. Th e earliest instanc e of tha t •'jingoism " which ha s so often been throw n up against him was in connectio n with th e Costell o case iu Ne w York in I8iif>, when he vigorously m;iin - taine d and urged upon th e countr y th e thoroughl y novel doctrin e tha t every naturalize d America n citizen was entilled to th e same protectio n Abroad tha t would be given to the, native-bor n American , an d th e length y discussion k'f thi s matte r eventuall y ende d with our treat y with (Jrea t Britai n in 1870, by which thi s principl e was given practica l effect as oppose d to th e o.dc r English theor y of "oucc a subject, always a subioct,' ' It was in lST<i tha t Blaine Iirst mad e his appearanc e as a candidat e for th e Republica n nominatio n for th e Presidency . Then , as in every subsequen t nationa l convention , he was th e popu - lar choic e of th e people . Ther e he forever crushe d Rosoo e Conkling , hi s principa l opponen t for tho, nomina - tion . Ther e Col. Iugcrsoll' s famou s eulogy was pronounce d amid th e wildest scenes ever witnessed in a nationa l convention . Yet Blaine was defeate d by a combinatio n of all his opponents . The combin e was effecteiT by Rosco e Conkling , who seeing thVttlain e forct a could not be broken , turne d hi s own votes in th e directio n of Hayes , th e dar k horse , who was nominated . In the following Septembe r Blaine was appointe d to succeed Lot M. Morril l in the. Unite d State s Senate . Hereto - fore Conklin g hn d been leade r of tha t branc h of Congress . With th e appearanc e of Blaine on th e floor he was forced to abando n his prou d position . Th e quarre l between Blain e an d Conklin g was of lon g standing . In - deed, it date d back to th e close of th e war, when both were in Congres s together , In th e Senat e Blaine fought in a most determine d manne r against th e ph n for a deteriorate d silver coinage , and favored as th e solutio n of thi s prob'et n a bi-metalli c currency .

He immediatel y set t o work upo n a labor which he had lon g planned , bu t : which he had been too busy to carr y out. Thi s was his book, "Twent y Y'ears in Congress. " It s two large J volume s are complet e with interes t of the most varied nature , an d its first I 200 pages are especially valuable as a resum e of th e early politica l histor y of thi s country , as well as a most carefully minut e accoun t of th e politica l perio d between th e administration s oi Lincol n and Gartiekl . In 1884 he finally saw hi s fondest hope s realized when th e Nationa l Republica n conven - tion at Chicag o nominate d him for th e Presidency . He immediatel y set to ! work and too k a. most vigorous par t in th e campaign . Hi s shar e of th e work showed an eager desire fo* his own success which hi s evi« den t ambitio n had always indicated . j Ho, was defeate d in thi s election , aa I Grove r Clevelan d carrie d Ne w York ' Stat e by a majorit y of 1,047 votes, an d • th e man who was no t only perhap s th o cleverest, but certainl y th e most am* bitiou s America n living, was again doome d to retir e to privat e life. : Mr. Blaine was, however, too well traine d a soldier—too battle-staine d fl veteran in th e war of politics—to show , his feelings to th e outsid e world. H i I proceede d with th e work upo n hi l book, which was still unfinished , an d I in u shor t tim e had it read y for th « I press, I t is certainl y on e of th « most importan t contribution s to th » record s of contemporaneou s political histor y ever writte n by an America n statesman , an d as such de> serves a high place in th e literatur e ol thi s class, no t to mentio n its eminen t value as u text-boo k for student s ol America n politics . He spen t th e years of '87-'8S in Europe , havin g been 01s dore d ther e by his doctors , who feared tha t can y ing th e bunio n of public life j for so man y years had seriously inv j paire d his physique , which neede d resi and chang e to enabl e it to recovei its forme r stamina . Fro m Pari s h« wrote a letter , afterward s publishe d i i the Ne w Y'ork Tribune , urgin g tha t the campaig n of '88 should also b« fought out upo n th e platfor m of a pro* tective tariff. The most notabl e event s of his last administratio n of th e Stat e Depar t rnent—whic h was characterize d by th< same "vigorous foreign policy" as be. fore—were th e adjustmen t of th« trouble s with Ital y arisin g from th« wholesale lynchin g in Ne w Orleans , the ratae r prolonge d controvers y witjl Chile , th e accomplishmen t of his reciprocit y plan , nn d th e firm stan d take n in th e Bchrin g Sea difficulty.

Prince Schwartzenberg, the richest man in Austria, wi»h 170 square miles of territory, was said to have left 855,- 000,000 when he died a few years ago. The duke of Galliera, a railway magnate, left 855,000,000 in France and 815.000,000 in Italy in the past decade, and this is by far the largest personal fortune mentioned in Latin K u rope Ten years ago M. Leroy Beaulieu, a high authority,estimated that iu Paris with its 12,500,000 people, ouly 8,000 persons spent over 810,00i) a year. There are probably thrice this number in New York. There are two or three nobU»if.en in Germany who own over loo square j miles, but the largest German in -unitis Herr Krupp's of 81,090,500, and K e next a little smaller, is the income of the Berlin Rothschild. In 1873 sixteen English landlords were estimated to have rent rolls outside of London of $175,000 a year or more. Of these three, the duke of Northumberland, Earl D^-by m:.i Sir J. \V.

The queen of Saxony never had any children of her own, but she is very fond of f)thf»r people's children Ken^e it happened a few days ago that, while walking in the park in Dresden she met a nurse in charge of two little children and stopped to admire the rosy babies. The following1 dialogue was heard: The queen — -'They are twins, are they not?" Nurse —"Yes, please your majesty." "1 supp >sa their papa is very proud of tUein?" "This httl« boy's papa is, but that little boy's papa died a month ago." "But I thought you said they were twins?" "Your majesty said they were and I didn't think it right to contradict the queen.

It is now apparent to the Directors of the World's Columbian Exposition that millions of people will be denied the pleasure of becoming the possessors of World's Fair S°uvenir Coins The Official Souvenir of the Great Exposition— The extraordinary and growing demand for these Coins, and the desire on the part of the Directors that equal opportunities may be afforded for their purchase, have made it necessary to enlarge the channels of distribution. To relieve themselves of some responsibility, the Directors bave invited THE MERCHANTS Throughout the Nation to unite with the Banks in placing Columbian Half- Dollars on sale. This is done that the masses of the people, and those living at remote points, may be afforded the best possible opportunity to obtain the Coins. THE FORTUNATE POSSESSORS of SOUVENIR COINS will be those who are earliest in seizing upon these new advantages. $10,000 Was Paid For The First Coin They are all alike, the issue is limited, and time must enhance their value. The price is One Dollar each. HOW TO GET THE COINS: Go to your nearest merchant or banker, as they are likely to have them. If you cannot procure them in this way, send direct to us, ordering not less than Five Coins, and remitting One Dollar for each Coin ordered. Send instructions how to ship the Coins and they will be sent free of expense.

The National League for (local "Roads, now assembled at ^\ nshin^ ton. is en^iiyulin a work which should i'( nnnend the hearty support of the people. I n this state in particular the laws relating to the maintenance of the public hi^hwnys are mliculov.sly inefficient. The work in oneh district ( is done with very little reference J to adjoining districts. Any n i n - preliensive scheme of improvement is practically impossible. (Scarcely a mile of cei.ntiy n-ad can he traveled without mrotiii.u1 holes, ruts, rocks and rteep grades, alike incc nijmtible with i-nnfort in driving: and destructive to vehicles r.r.tl horses. The time and money annually expended in work upon the country roads, if systematically and efficiently directed would result in admirable roads throughout the state. As it is the effort and rxpenso are practically wasted. 'Unquestionably the remedy lies in State control of road building and improvt ment. The embargo on foreign rai^s coining into Atlantic ports, on account <•)(• cholera, has a tendency to advance the price of writing, Mat, and ledger paper. The price of rags and bleaching chemicals has more than doubhd, and the] prospects are that thc-e commodities will continue to advance. The situation dot's not improve. A dispatch, dated Paris, states that fresh cases of cholera are reported from Etaples, Conrtville, Calais, Avion, and elsewhere in the north of France. The disease is spreading in "Western and Southern Hungary. Twenty-seven died on Friday at Aradoz, and thirty more on Saturday. There are several new cases in Holland, and many fatal cases have occured there. The authorities at Montreal and j Baltimore have recently quarantined immigrant] vessels coming into port. Until the disease entirely disappears in Europe there is no prospect of raising the embargo on foreign rags. In the face of the present state of afi'aiis many consumers in the "West at least reluctantly [consent to any advanco in the former prices paid for printing and blank book work. In the absence of an epidemic it takes a great deal of explanation to convince the public that there is any necessity for an advance in paper at the present time. In this dealers are powerless, as they are regulated by the manufacturers, and they in turn, have to sell their product by the prices paid for material. Consumers'[ought to bo thankful that the Government is taking precautionary steps to prevent the disease ' from spreading. We are confident the Government will remove the embargo at the soonest practicable * moment, and that manufacturers will then gladly restore old prices.

Presiden t Harriso n has it in his power to pay his successor a very irigh compliment , by failing to fill the vacancy in the U. S. Suprem e Cour t left by the deat h of Justic e Lamar . I t would be an unprece - dente d courtes y from a retirin g to an incomin g president ; bu t it would not be politics, and therei n lies th e weakness of th e proposi - tion . A seat upon th e benc h of the Suprem e Cour t is justly regarded as th e highest hono r tha t can be paid to an American lawyer, and next to the hono r of receiving it is tha t of bestowing it. It is extremel y doubtfu l whethe r the huma n nature , which is as stron g in president s as it is in othe r people , would permi t any presiden t to retire leaving such a vacancy, even if his successor had been elected by his own party, to say nothin g of leaving it to th e man who has defeated him. Ther e is much talk aroun d th e capito l of a big row being raised over th e confirmatio n of any nominatio n tha t Presiden t Harriso n may make to thi s vacancy, but from th e best obtainabl e informatio n th e republican Senator s will vote solidly for the confirmatio n of any man tha t may be chosen , and th e Populis t Senator s will probabl y vote with them , which would make the confirmatio n certain , even if every democrati c Senato r oppose d it, which is not considere d probable . Certai n republica n Senator s are probabl y willing for Mr. Harriso n to believe tha t they will not be active in securin g th e confirmatio n of a nominatio n no t personall y agreeable to them , but tha t is because they wish to have a han d in selectin g the new Justice . If Representativ e Aimer Taylor, of Illinois , a republica n and an anti-silve r man , speaks from the card, and he probabl y does, (is to the positio n of th e republican s in th e House , the bill for th e ivp )a\ of th e silver law is deade r tha n a last year's bird nest. H e says he knows tha t three-fourths , and he believes tha t four-fifths , of the republican s in th e Hous e will vote against the bill, if it is wrought to a vote. Thi s is very significant unde r the circumstanc - es. Deat h has, up to thi s time , been one of the most importan t factor s in th e legislation of thi s session of Congress . I t has upon several occasions , in both Hous e and Senate, upset carefully prepare d legislative programs , by causin g th e loss of a day throug h adjournment , and in Congres s a day lost carrie s with it everythin g appointe d for tha t day. Ther e has been since Congres s met, an average loss of two days a week, by reason of adjournmen t as a mark of respect to the memor y of dead men , and th e questio n is beitfg asked mor e or less anxiously, "where will thi s thin g stop?" So far as respect to the dead goes, these adjournment s are like th e closing of th e governmen t department s upon similar occasions—farces, which enable governmen t employe s to spend a day in search of pleasure , at Un - cle Sam' s expeuco . I t would be nrbre respectfu l for governmen t employes, from Congressme n to laborers, to remai n at work, tha n to mad e a picnic on th e funera l days of prominen t men , as the y do now, as a rule. Th e line will have to be drawn somewhere , an d man y Congressme n favor a law confinin g the adjournin g of Congress and closing the department s in hono r of dead men , to death s of men iri office. Th e republica n Senatoria l caucus, has in its wis lorn decide d tha t Utah , Oklahom a and New |Hexico are fit subjects for State - hood , and tha t they shall be admitte d at this session, if—ominous if—there be any time left after disposin g of th e anti-optio n bill, the Cheroke e strip bill, th e Nica - ragua cana l bill, and th e appro - priatio n bills, not a single one of which has yet been passed by th e Senate . I n view of th e doubt , amountin g almost to a certainty , about th e Nicaragu a cana l bill gettin g throug h the House , it is not surprisin g tha t represutative s of th e territorie s name d should object to having the cana l bill put ahea d of their s on th e program . These objection s are, of course, only whispered , but the y exist all the same, and if it were no t for the fear of jeopardizin g th e chance s of thei r territorie s to become states, they would be loudly expressed. The electio n of Marti n to be Senato r by th e Kansa s legislature was disappointin g to th e republi - cans in Congres s who had somehow or othe r got th e idea tha t th e muddl e would result iu thei r gettin g the Senator . Th e Populist s say they are satisfied. No t satisfied with th e loss of time on accoun t of adjournments , the opponent s of the Torre y bankruptc y bill killed some mor e time by fillibustering against tha t Mil. Secretar y Foste r estimate s tha t ther e will be an available surplu s in th e Treasur y on Jun e 30, 1894:, of £53,352,407, but the democrats say that there are liabilities on contracts, etc , amounting to $46, 000,000 that will have to be met before that date, which he has not included.

A MISSIONAUV at Shanghai gave a Chinese boy a glass eye, and the populace rose riotously with intent to pluck it out, as well as the real eyes of the missionary. The obvious lesson in this is that the missionary who intends to mould oriental simplicity into nobler shape should pack his pocket with shot guns rather than optics.

The 4'Jth annual convocation of the (hand lodge of Michigan, F. Jk. A. M., was held in Saginaw with over 6U0 delegates present. (Iraiui Master \V. J*. limis, of (iraud Kapids, presided. The address of the grand master shows that during the year dispensations were granted to five new lodges, and the charter of one lodge was revoked. Twelve new Masonic halls were dedicated and the corner stones of seven new public buildings laid. The Masonic Home at (iraud Rapids was warmly commended and the llruntl Lodge advised to take some action for its support. The grand secretary's report shows the total iiii'iubership is ;i4.:.' 11, with three lodges tt> hear from, the gain during the year being l,14ii. There are 3ti7 chartered lodges in the state with, seven working under dispensations. The following otlicers of the (Inind Masonic lodge were elected for the ensuing year: lirand master, (ieorge K.

IT is unofficially reported that attorneys who have settled estates by, the simple process of absorption havo been upheld by the Bar association as strictly within professional lines. This may satisfy the lawyers. The public does not, perhaps, recognize the sanctity of the- professional lin<\s laid down by tho.se who pet inside of them to praetico what they couldn't practice outside. Small-Pox in Michigan. Michigan and several other states may suffer a small-pox epidemic because of the lax regulations of the New York quarantine. Secretary linker, of the state board of health lias been notified of seven cases anil one death from the dread disease in Washtenaw county, near Ann Arbor. The victims are all in the family of Henry Schneider. They contracted the disease from immigrants by the name of tkicer, who arrived in New,York Nov. ~l\ on the infected steamer Saale. They had certificates from the New York officials, which were presented at Ann Arbor about three days later. Several members of the- Jacer family have since broken out with varioloid, and from them the Schneiders contracted what is known HS confluent small-pox. Two more of the cases in that family may prove fatal. It has been learned that the New York authorities paid no attention to any passengers except those who ^vere actually sick, and, as a result, contagion has been spread far and wide. In Ohio several outbreaks of small-pox have just been reported which can be attributed to the same source. THE latest theorist whose yearning eye turns toward the north polo proposes to reach the spot by following the wild animals of the A'^tic back to Symsonia. An ex^kirer with a Irm grasp uponxflhe taJ^of a polar bear, urging the animal to greater speed, would be something new to •cience, andf doubtless, in the end, would add much to the happiness of the carnivorous bear. THE big elephant, Zip, recently •hecked his swaying trunk, gave a great groan and closed his eyes in extensive and cumbersome death. Several curious ^entVmen pried their way into his stomach and found there a chain, not even partly digested, and weighing ninety pounds. Thus science is enriebed by the knowledge that a chain weighing fciu«ty pounds is not wholesurat; food. Awful A sad case of diphtheria's ravages esune to light at Saginaw when Otlieer llulscy called 'at "a house, which had been placarded an account of the illness of a little girl with the disease. He found that the husband ami father, Robert Armstrong, had been suddenly taken down with the disease, and died, the girl was no better and the mother was just about to be taken down with the disease. The dead man was at once removed to an undertaker's rooms iind the mother and child taken to a hospital. is a singular .plea for the French newspapers in the Panama bribery case which Kditor Fontaine lelt constrained to put in. bis testimony, that if the loan wad to bo placed the press had to bo bribed. ••Few of the French papers can live otherwise," he said. This recalls the plea ot the thief to Dr. Johnson. ••But, doctor, I must live.11 " I see-no necessity for that/1 replied tho doctor, and the argument was pressed %o farther on that line. If tho French newspapers cannot live otherwise, than by bribery, then it is timo for a general mortality among .trench •ewspapcrs. Tried to IJlosv up the ll»nk, L. C. Hoagland, cashier of the new Exchange bank at liritton, found a dangerous bomb at the front door of the building. It consisted of a piece of gas pipe about six inches long, with the ends tilled with wax. I'pi in examination the contents proved to be nitroglycerine. The fuse and cap were arranged and had been lighted, but went out. No reason can be assigned for the attempted destruction of the bank. Canfjht hy M Widow'* Wile*.

It ummong the West Virginia traditions that when the baby was born, Mrs. Kenna, a la Hamilear, dedicated his life to the duty of revenge, but the spirit of Hannibal did not burn in the bosom of John Kenna.

Ten or More FHtnlly Hurned mul nt Leail fiO Have Nerloua Injuries—A t'tutt l'an> •eager Train C'ranhes Into the Kettr ul »u Oil Train. Other News. A wreck which, in its consequences, is one of the most appalling and disastrous that has occurred in years, occurred at Wunn Junction, or Alton Junction, 111., u few miles northeast of St. Louis, Mo. The Cleveland, Cincinnati, Columbus it St Louis, "Southwestern Limited" passenger train, consisting of an engine and four coaches, goiny east ran into a switch half a mile north of Wann Junction and crashed into a ' train consisting of seven tank cars • standing there. The result was a tiro ! and afterward an explosion, which ~0 persons their lives, fatally injured eight or ten more, while fully 50 others suffered painful burns. At the junction there are several switches and on one of them the train of oil tanks had been run to allow the "limited,"which was late, the right of way. The switch had been left open and when the fast train, running 40 miles an hour, came thundering on it crashed into the tank cars. The engineer of the passenger saw the danger, shouted to his fireman, reversed the engine, pulled on the air brakes and both jumped—-a second too late, for the engineer was killed and the fireman seriously injured. The crash was somewhat diminished by the engineer's thoughtfulness and bravery and not a passenger was seriously injured. The first four tanks of oil were burst by the collision and the train was soon ablaze. Large crowds surrounded the wreck to watch the work of the fire demon when an explosion of awful propensities shook the earth. The remaining tanks had exploded with terrific force and the scene which followed was terrible in the extreme. Pieces of their iron sides were thrown far out into the adjacent fields and showering upon the assembled crowd of sightseers a mass of liaming liquid. For just one second after the noise of the explosion there was no sound save the swish of the seething oil as it forced through the air. Then there arose a confusion of agonizing appeals for help anil cries of terror to which no tongue nor pen can do justice. For several minutes tlie panic was indescribable. Those touched by the burning oil grouped about wildly, seeking in vain for relief from their tortue. Almost without exception the injured were burned about the fi' .'e, and had their eyesight temporally if not permanently destroyed. Gradually the horror of the holo- '.•iiust gave way to relization of the necessity for quick relief for the wounded anil willing hands tenderedly carried the dead and injured to Wunn, where they were placed in the depot and taken to Alton. When a list of the dead and wounded was taken L'O souls had left their clay and 11! more were hovering between life and death while at least ">U were seriously burned. PROCEEDINGS OF CONGRESS.

THE LION ROARED' The Khedive or Egypt Tries to Defy Greali Britain, but Hu to Retreat. Cable from Cairo: The Khedive of Egypt has changed hia ministry without having obtained the assent of the British authorities, who therefore decline to recognize the new cabinet. Mr. Cronier, the British representatiw in Egypt, informed the khedive that Great Britian expected to be consulted by the Egyptian government in all the important steps proposed to be takea by it, especially i" fhu"£es in the military. The British government, he added, would never sanction the appointment of Fakhri I'ushu. as president of the council. It is a well known fact that Fakhri Pasha, is opposed to the English occupation of Kgypt. London cable: When the news of the formation of a new cabinet by tha Khedive of Egypt was received Mr, Gladstone hastily summoned a cabinet council. The council resolved to treaty the Khedive with the utmost firmness. The ministers decided to inform him in a distinct manner that his position as ruler of Egypt depends upon the good will of Great Britain aud that the British government will refuse to recognize the reactionary ministry that he has appointed. It is believed that Mr. Cromer's message attributed the Khedive's action to concerted Rus- Mun, French and Turkish intrigues. Later advices from Cairo states h ^ after considering the ominous mood o the British cabinet the Khedive reconsidered his independent action and former! a ministry wholly satisfactory to the British lion. Over S«,000,000. We notice, according to the published statement, that during the past year tho deposits of the People's Savings Bank, of Detroit, have increased over 81,000.000, and the total footings at tha close of business on January l'J 88,02^,437 14. This enormous sum of money is very largely made up of the small deposits of its savings customers, for whom the bank has been a safe and reliable depository for over ^0 years. Its popularity seems to be increasing steadily, and the management is in tho hands of experienced and reliable raeiv who arc conducting its affairs in d* mirable shape. THE LEGISLATORS.

The Royal Baking Powder is proven by actual tests to be 27 per cent, stronger than any other brand on the market.

An ivTjiloHlon of Fire Damp In a linhemlan Mine CRUSCH tVarful Sluughtnr, Dispatches from Vienna tell the story of the terrible loss of life from an explosion of fire damp in a mine a t Dux in Bohemia. One hundred and thirty miners were killed. The explosion occurred when the shifts were changing. A cage full of miners had been lowoi-ed half way down the shaft when the ground trembled, a loud rumbling report was heard and the cable attached to tho cage gave such a lurch that the lowering machinery broke. A rush of air and dust from the pit's mouth, tho sounds of crashing timbers and the cries of the men in the cage gave warning to the men above of the extent of the disaster Help was summoned, the machinery was repaired after a delay of half an hour and the oago was raised. Ten of the occupants had been killed instantly by the shock, ID had suffered fractures from which they cannot recover, 5 who had bvoken limbs and internal injuries will live. An hour later the superintendent of the mine and five miners from the night shift went down in tho cage. They were unable to go more than 100 yards from the shaft but they found 14 dead bodies. Of the f>0 men, who were waiting for the cage, lt> had been killed and 40 had been partially crushed by falling timbers or half suffocated by the foul air. A short distance from the shaft the superintendent found four bodies winch had been crushed by a falling beam. In a gallery ?<<W yards from the mouth of the shaft -10 bodies were found under an immense pile of ^fallen timber and earth.

One cf them weighed 8,5001b, and another which the five-ton scales would not weigh. The boys do not draw logs just for fun here. A body of meteroic iron estirr ated to weigh ten tons has been discovered near San Antonio, Texas. The large meteor which recently passed over this locality was steering in just about that direction, and the conclusion is perhaps justifiable that tha mass found is identical with our brilliant but transitory visitor.—Ann Arbor Argus.

THE MISADVENTURES OF JOHN NICHOLSON. l i V K O U K K T I,<>(flS S T M V K X S O N . CHA1TKK I. In Wliieh John Sows the Wind. John Varey N'icliolsou was wtum'd, yet much duller men have risen to hiyh places in the ^overnment; if he }iad been of keener wit, moreover, this story would never havo been written. His lather, a, stern and reli^ ious ^"entleinan, ruled him with a firm hand and governed his house. with majestic dignity. Here was a family when} prayers came at the same hour, where the tSabbath literature was unimpeachably selected, where the- finest who should have leaned to any false opinion was in>tantly set down, and over which there reigned all week, and grew denser on Sundays, a silence that was agreeable to his ear, and a gloom that he found comfortable. Mrs. Nicholson had died about thirty, and left him with three children: a daughter two years, and a son about ei<jfht y«Mrs younger than John; and John himself, the unlucky bearer of a name infamous in Knylish history. The daughter, Maria, was a g<Nni jiii-1 — dutiful, pious, dull, but so easily startled that to speak to her was quite a perilous enterprise. " I don't think I care to talk about that, if you please,v she would say, and strike the boldest speechless by her unmistakable pain, this upon all topics—dress, pleasure, morality, polities, in which the formula was changed to "mv papa thinks otherwise*" and even religion, unless it was approached with a particular whining tone of voice. Alexander, the younger brother, was tsiekly, clever, fond of books and drawing,and full of satirical remarks. In the midst of these, imagine that natural, clumsy, unintelligent and • mirthful animal, John: mighty wellbehaved in comparison with other lads, although not up to the mark of the house in Randolph Crescent; full of li sort of blundering ail'eetion. full of caresses which were never very warmly received; full of sudden and loud laughter which ran"1 out in that ftill house like curses. Mr. Nicholson himself had a ^reat fund of humor, of the Scots order--- intei leetual, turning on the observation of men; his own character, for instance - i f lie could have seen it in another -•-would have been a rare feast, for him; but his son's empty yutVaws over u broken plate. and empty, almost litfht-heartod remarks, struck him with pain as the. indices of a weak mind. Outside the family John had curly attached himself (much as a do^r may follow a marquis) to the >te]>s ()f Alan Houston, a lad about a yearolder than himself, idle, a trille wild, the heir to a ijood eMute which was Ktill in the hands of a rigorous trustee, and so royally content with himself that he took John's devotion as a matter of course. The intimacy was pall to Mr. Nicholson; it took his son from the house, and he was a jealous parent; it kept him from the office, and he was a martinet, lastly, Mr. Nicholson was ambitious for his family, (in which, and the disruption principles, he entirely lived) and he hated to see a son of his play second fiddler to an idler. After some hesitation, he ordered that the friendship should cease—an unfair command, though seemingly inspirod by the spirit of prophecy; and John saving nothing ing, continued to disobey the order under the rose. John was nearly nineteen when he was one day dismissed rather earlier than usual from his father's office, where he was studying the practice of the law. It was Saturday; and except that he had a matter of £4.>0 in his pocket which it was his duty to > hand over to the British Linen company's bank, he had the whole afternoon at his disposal. He went to Prince's street enjoying the mild sunshine, and the little thrill of easterly wind that tossed the Hn^s alon;? that terrace of palaces, and tumbled the gin n trees in the garden. The band was plaj ir.£ do vn in the valley under the castko. and when it camo to the turn of tl.a pipers, he heard their wild sounds with a stirring1 of the blood. Something distantly martial woke in him; and he thought of Miss Mackenzie, whom ho was t o meet that day at dinner. Now, it is undeniable that ho should havo gone directly to the bank, but right in tfto way stood the billiard room of the* hotel where Alan was almost certain to bo found; and the , He wan cue temptation proved too strong, entered the billiard room, and instantly greeted by his friend, in hand. "Nicholson," said lie, " I want you to lend me a pound or two till Monday. V "You've come to the ri<.'ht shop, haven't you?"' returned John, " i have twopence.71 "Nonsense,11 said Alun. "You can yet- some, (jo and borrow at your tailor's; they all do it. Or I'll tell you what; pop your watch.11 "Oh, yes, I dare say,"1 said John. "And how about my father?'1 "How is ho to know? lie doesn't wind it up for you at ni^ht, does he?11 inquired Alan, at which John tfutl'awod. "No, seriously; 1 am in a iix," continued the tempter. "I have lost some; money to a man here. I'll yivu it you to-niyht, and you can ^et the heirloom out aj/ain on Monday, (h)ine; it's a small service after all. I would do a <jood deal more for you.11 Whereupon John went forth, and pawned his tfold watch under the assumed name of John F r o ^ s , Mo l'leasance. But the nervousness that assailed him at the door of that inglorious haunt • a pawn-hop and the eil'ort necessary to invent the pseudonym (which, somehow seemed to him a necessary part of the procedure), had taken more time than ne imagined; and when he returned to tlit4 billiard room with the spoils, the bank had already closed its doors. This was a shrewd knock. "A piece of business had been neglected." He heard these words in his father's trenchant voice, and trembled, and then dodjjvd the thought. After all. who was to know':' He must carry £4 H) about with him till Monday, when the neglect could be surreptitiously repaired; and meanwhile, he was free to pass the afternoon on the encircling divan of the billiard room, smoking his pipe, sippin.y a pint of of the pe<ja of resolution? did not each woo him forth and warn him back a^ain into himself? Between these two considerations, at least, ho was more than usually mojed; and when ho got to Randolph Crescent, he quite forgot the four hundred pounds in the inner pocket of his "Teat coat, huny up the coat, with its rich freight, upon his particular pin of the, hat stand; and hi the very action sealed his doom. CHA1TKU II. In Which John Heaps the Whirlwind. About half past ten it was John's brave yood fortune to offer his arm to Miss Mackenzie, and escort her home. The ni^lit was chill and starry; all the way eastward the trees of the different .gardens ru.stled and looked black. l'p the stone, 'jully of Leith Walk, when they came to cross it, the breeze made a rush and set the, flames of the street lamps quavering; and when at last they had mounted to the Royal Terrace, where Captain Mackenzie lived, a yreat salt freshness came in their faces from the sea. These phases of the walk remained written on John's memory, each emphasized by the touch of that li^ht hand on his arm; and behind all these aspects of the nocturnal city he saw, in his mind's eye, a picture of the lighted drawing-room at home where he had ^at talking with Flora and his father, trom the other end, had looked on with\a kind and ironical smile. John had read the significance of that smile, which mij*hi: have escaped a stranger. Mr. Nicholson had remarked his son's entan^'ement with satisfaction, tinned by- humor: and hi -i smile, if it still was a thought c .-o temptuous, had implied consent. At the captain's door the <_rirl held out her hand, with a certain emphasis, and John took it and kept it a little longer and said, "Good-ni^ht, l-'lora. dear," and was instantlv thrown into A QBNBR'L SUMMARY.

Hut if you lacked that qualification and were an,*hlingered, o\' inclined toward conviviality at unlawful hours, Colette's was your only port. Y(Ui were very ill-supplied. 'Die company was not recruited from the senate or the, ehurctr, though the bar was very well represented on the only occasion on which I tlew in the face of my country's laws, and, taking my reputation in my hand, penetrated into that yrim supper-house. And Colette's frequenters, thrill inirly conscious of \vronji-doin_<i and "that twohanded engine, (the policeman) at the door," were perhaps inclined to somewhat feverish excess. Hut the place was in no sense a very bad one; and it is somewhat, strange to me. at this distance of time, how it had acquired its dangerous repute. In precisely the same spi.'it fts a man may debate a project to ascend the Mattcrhorn or to cross Africa, John ci nsidetvd Alan's proposal, and, irreatly daring, accepted it. As ho walked home, the thoughts of tins excursion out of the safe, places of life- into the, wild and arduous, stirred and stru.q-fjlod in his imagination with the ima^o of Miss Mackenzie—inc mtfruous and yet kindred thou; hts, fop did not each imply unusual litfhtonfairly incited with tenderness, and could have sun^T aloud. At that juncture a certain creasing in his •ireat-coat caught his ear. lie put his hand into his packet, pulled forth the envelope that held the money, and sat stupified. The Calton Hill, about this period, had an ill name of nights; and to bo silting there with four hundred pounds that did not belong to him was hardly wise. He looked up. There was a man in a very bad hat a little on one side of him, apparently looking at the scenery from a little on the other a second ni^ht-walkor was drawing very quietly near. l7p jumped John. The envelope fell from his hands. He stooped to <:et it, and at the same moment? both men ran iu and closed with him.

No other is made from cream of tartar specially refined for it and cht>rnically pure. No other makes such light, sweet, finely-flavored, and wholesome food. No other will maintain its strength without loss until used, or will make bread or cake that will keep fresh so long, or that can be eaten hot with impunity, even by dyspeptics. No other is so economical. The Baking Powders now being offered in this vicinity, with the statement that they are " a s good as Royal," have been shown by the official analyses to be composed of alum and detrimental to health. The official chemists of the United States and Canada, State analysts, municipal boards of health, and physicians indorse the great qualities of the Royal Baking Powder.

The display will be one of the most imposing naval demonstrations ever witnessed in any era; and the twenty-one American war ships that will take part will worthily maintnin the honor of the Ameiican ting in the superb competition of floating fighting machines. Congress should promptly appropriate the i:'o00,00() needed to meet tho expenses of the review. To show a mean and niggardly spirit in the matter, would disgrace the United States in the eyes of all the world.—New York Press. in that vicinity was surveyed, and monuments were set up at every mile interval, the British placing ono between every two of ours. These extend from the Lake of the Woods to tho Rocky Mountains. Where the line enters forests the timber is cut down and the ground cleared a rod wide1; where it crosses sinall lakes, stone cairns have been built, sometimes being eighteen feet under water and eight above; in other places earth mounds seven by fourteen feet have been built. The most of the monuments- - which number J588 in all—are of iron. It was found that the most sol ill wooileu posts were not proof against the ravages of the Indians, prairie iires and the weather, so that nothing but iron would do. These pillars are hollow iron castings lifted over solid cedar posts and well bolted through and are sunk four feet in the ground. They are eight feet high, eight •inches squ"re at the bast1 and four at the top, and upon opposite sides facing north and south are the inscriptions, cast in letters two inches high: "Convention ot London, October 18, 1818." The pillars weigh ~\sr> lbs each, and were made at Detroit, Michigan. So you see that Uncle Sam's border line is very distinctly marked all the way from the lakes to ihe summit of the Rocky Mts. — •<» Tho llrd and Clwapcst Agricultural PapiT in tho World.

Do any of our youn^ ]:eople ever query how the dividing line between the United States and the Dominion of Canada is iiiaiked, and how travelers in those wild regions r.ortli-west of the <^rent lakes can tell when they step from the dominions of Uncle Sam into those of Queen Victoria? For many years the question of boundary between the United States and the possessions of Gi\ Britain was discussed, and at hist, at the convention of London, held i i 1N1S, the forty-ninth parallel of north latitude was decided upon. A parallel of latitude, however, beinjjj an imaginary line, is a very p3or guide to a traveler; so the next best thin^ to do WJIS to mark that line so t'iat all who passe that way should know where it is located.

President-elect Cleveland is an annexationist. He not only favors the annexation of Hawaii, the commissioners of which are uow in Washington, asking that their country be taken under the protection of the United StateB, but he also favors the annexation of Canada, and from what Hon. Don M. Dickinson, who is in his confidence, said to members of Congress here this week, he expects to see Canada nnnexed during his administration. Mr. Dickinson intimated that he had positive and authoritative information which led him to expect that in the near future Canada would take similar steps to those now being takeu by Hawaii. I t is known here that the present administration has quietly encouraged the annexation sentiment in Canada whenever it has had an opportunity to do so, and that many prominent Canadians who have been here at different times have taken away unofficial information that whenever Canada applied for admission, her application would be favorably received. It has not been dofinately decided what will be done with the application of Hawaii for annexation, which will be formally presented to the commissioners tomorrow, further than that it will The 40 votes in favor of the bill were cast by 2 populists, 11 democrats and 27 republicans, while the opposition, wiiich mustered 29 votes, was made up of 9 republicans and 20 democrats. The House sub-committee to investigate the whiskey trust, of which Representative Bynum is chairman, held its first meeting today. Mr. Bynura and other members express their intention to get to the bottom of the whole business, if it is within the range of possibility to do so. A last attempt is being made to get the democrats in Congress to support the bill for the repeal of the Sherman silver law, which is to come up in the House Thursday and Friday of next week. Friends of Mr. Cleveland say that he has made up his mind to call an immediate extra session of Congress if this bill is not passed by this Congress, and, that to make sure of the extra session passing it, he will make no appointments to office uutil it does. There is now a possibility that the bill may get through the House, but there it will have to stop. Ex-Secretary Thompson is expected here tomorrow to testify before the House committee that is investigating the charges of bribery and corruption in connection with the American end of the Panama canal company. Mr. Thompson was American president of the compaii}\ If both House and Senate do be something that makes Ameri- n o t g«t a rash on it will be almost can control of Hawaii certain, impossible to prevent an extra FOR MEATS, FISH, ETC., AKD FO* BAKINQ BREAD, CAKES AND PUDDING*.

There are no politics in the question, and while there is difference of opinion in Congress as to what should be the first step, there is practical unanimity in the opinion that it must be something that will make it irrtpassiblt' for ai\y European power to obtain control of Hawaii, and this opinion has been greatly fttren^tbened by tho rumor that Great Britain would protest as/ainst this country assuming control of Hawaiir" It appears that the Nicaragua canal bill is not to ^et through the Senate without a stru^le. When Senator Sherman attempted to seem1" for tho bill the rii>ht of way left vacant by the passage of the anti-option bill, lie was antagonized by Senator Vest, who said it was far more important that the "Cherokee outlet" bill should be considered and passed than that tho time of the Senate should be taken up in the discussion of a measure that it. was an open secret could not pass at this session. It is significant that Mr. ] Sherman's motion was voted' down. Should a Senator vote according to his own belief in what is rii^ht and proper, or according to instructions of the Legislature of his State? "When the final vote on the anti-option bill was taken in the Senate a number of Senators voted contrary to resolutions adopted by their State Le^islatures. Some made explanations; aiming them Vest of Missouri, who said that notwithstanding such instruction to vote for the bill, he took pleasure in voting against it, even if his constituents regarded such action as sutlicient reason for retiring him to private life. The fate of the anti-option bill is now in the hands of its friends in the House. If tliW arc shrewd they can outwit the jnen who have announced their illation to tillibuskiir against it,«Mvluin it comes up in the House for concurrence in the Senate amendments, ami rush it through. Party lines were wiped out in the anti-option bill in the. Senate. session, by reason of the failure of appropriation bills. Only two of these bills have passed both House and Senate, and only four weeks of the session remain.

NAPOLEON'S MOTHER. SturW'M o f t l i e W o r n i n W i l d ( l i v n F r a n c e Huron Larrey has published in I'aris tlie tirst volume of an important historical sketch culled "Mine. M e r e , " the mother of Napoleon t h e Ureat. No one was better litted to write, this sketch than Baron Larrey, the son of Napoleon's g r o a t surgeon, and in writing he obeyed t h e wish of his father. From his early childhood Baron Larrey lias collected documents relating to Letitia Kamolino, m o t l i c of 1 !i»'. em peror. In is.'H Huron L a n v y wont to Koine with his father. Napoleon's mother was then living in t h e Kinuceini palace. now I'ala/./o Bonaparte. In Rome. the mothoi- of Napoleon I. was known as " M a d a m e , " and all t h e let tors, dictated by her. for she was blind, were signed with tins name. When Baron Larrey ami his father arrived at tlie palace, they were shown into a large room, t h e one window of which gave them a view of tho capitol; near this window was Napoleon's camp bed.-toad. and on this bedstead they saw a woman almost one hundred^ years oiil, her head supported, by pillows. A muslin t u r b a n enveloped t h o head, anil the face denoted repose and meditation. Madame "s eyes, once black, wcvv gray and opaque, because of a double c a t a r a c t , but h e r cheeks were scarcely wrinkled. In spite of her great age. t h e profile was t h a t of a Roman empress, and she welcomed Baron Larrey and his father with most touching reference to h e r beloved son's great alt'eetion for t h e famous surgeon. She was surrounded by busts of all her famous family, but the most conspicuous was t h a t of Napoleon, i Madame related to h e r visitors t h o way in which she spent h e r days. Awake very curly she. lirst received her reader who gave h e r tho latest news. Then s h " breakfasted in bed <>n the same mahogany tablet used by Napoleon at St. Helena, afterward she was dressed for the day and always in the deepest 7uourning. Her favorite occupation was spinning, but she also knit, a^ that, allowed her to thi nk and lament. Madame's memory was unimnaired, and her judgment sound. She consulted Baron Larrey's father a b o u t her eatararf. lr.it her a g e rendered a cure impM.-sihle. Her great sorrow wa-i that shee.iuM not walk because of a fractured leg' im perfect ly .set, and hadly cared fur. Her only exercise was taken in a rolling chair, and she. liked to lie near the window because. of the heat of tho sun. She herself said: "My life ended after the death of t h e emperor. '['hen 1 renounced .everything for ever." T H E J O K E R S B U D G E T . " I t was probably the man who married a rich wife," says one who knows, "who iirst started tho. joke as to t h e ditUoully of Uniting a woman's pocket.

TO ABOLISH CONSULAR SEALS. J're&ldtmt Harrlitim Sends a MVAHMX*' t o i thn liutiae uu the Subjtu-t. President llarrihon has sent to the House his message dealing' with the subject of the importation of foreign goods in the United States across to Canadian border uuder consular seal. The President discusses at length the treaty obligations which elVect the subject growing out of the provisions of article 'J'J on the treaty of Washington and arrives at several conclusions: That article :.'!» of the Washiugtou treaty hits been abrogated: that there in no law to execute it if it were in force; that the treaty imposed no obligation upon the L'nitiul Slates to use the concession as to transit made by Canada and no limitation, upon tho powers of the Inited States hi dealing with merchandise imported for the use of our citizens through Canadian ports, or passing from one plucu in the United States to another through Canada; that the question of sealing cii'.s containing such merchandise ami thn treatment of such sealed cars when they cro->s our border is and always has been one to be settled by our laws a'vonling to our convenience and our interests as we may s^e them; that the law authorizing1 the seating of cars in Canada containing foreign merchandise imported from a coutigeous country does not apply to merchandise imported by our own people from countries not contiguous and carried through Canada for delivery to Mich own 'r.s; that the law did not cont" mp!aU* the passing of sealed s U* any place not a "port" nor the i ry of sued cars to the tuwuer or CM .gnee to be opened by him without the supervision of a revenue oilieer; that such a prai'tive is inconsistent with the safety oi the revenue. The statutes relating to the transportation of merchandise between the United States and the Uritish possessions should be the subject of revision. The treasury regulations have given to these laws a construction and a scope that I do not think was eontempleted by Congress. A policy adapted to the new conditions growing in part out of lhe construction of the Canadian Pacitie railraad should be declared and the business placed upon a basis more just to our people, and to our transportation companies. If we continue the policy of supervising rates and requiring that they shall be equal and reasonable upon the railroads of the United States, we cannot in fairness at the same time gi"e these unusual facilities for competition to Canadian roads that are free to pursue the practices us to cut rates and favored rates, .that we condemn and punish if practiced by our owu railroads.

OA tho scene of a dmpenite combat in which bolh animalw luid succumbed. It is a common practice among' lions, thi.s yeutleman ways in Youth's Companion, to hunt in company. A friend of minis in South Afr un had a peculiar example of thia. Ilia fciond V— had womulou1 a bull buffalo, which had retreated within the forest The two hunters carefully followed tho blood-trace, but after a short advance wore startled by a Huccesrfion of loud roars, which betokened iioni clo.se at hand. There could bo little doubt that the wounded butt'alo had been attacked. Therefore, wilh proper precaution they approached the spot until an o<- citing scene presented itself suddenly on tho other side of a large fallen tre*1, which happily concealed the approach of tho two hunters. Three lions were engaged in a lifeand- death combat with tho gallant old bull, who made a desperate defence, lirst knocking over one of his enemies then troriny another to tho ground, and exhibiting a strength colcl which appeared suitieiout to defeat tho combination. Suddenly the buffalo fell dead. This was tho result of the original wound, arf tne rillo bullet had passed through the lungs. Tho lions were not awaro of this, and began to quarrel among themselves about their imagined victory. One huge beast roared to half its height and placed its fore-paws upon tho body of the prostrate buffalo, while at the he;id and the hind \\inrters an angry lion clutched the dead body in its spreading paws, and growled at tho possessor of the center. This formed a grand picture within only a few yards1 distance, but ter" in connection with any article oi stomach bitters, thus protecting the plaintiff in the exclusive use of the p H " T d " word "Hostetter" as a "Trade-name."

But that occured before Ingersol commenced to lecture, and then besides, it was only fiction after all. To live; to work, perforce to eat is what bothers we'nns. And whether our journey be for pleasure or from necessity; whether we a visitinpr go, or drummers are; there is no engagement so binding, no pleasure so attractive, no sorrow so profound, but that we calculate—if ever so little—where we will pet the next meal. And so, in Huildinj? the Fort Street A 50 CE2sT[jnion Station in Detroit, provision was made for the DINNER satisfaction of the stomach; therefore every facility in the dining room, kitchen, pantry, etc., is of the most modern, and the materials used of the best the mark- } et affords. The management recognizes that the great bulk of travel e r s comes from those of rood- /""-" eratu means, for the reason that those who have modef'ate means compose the (rreat bulk of the population. A dinner at 50 cents is the proposition. A good dinner at 50 cents is one of the requirements which the management obliges Mr. Warner ( w b o h a s leased the restaurant) to supply.

PROBATE ORDER -State of Michigan, County of Livingston, ««.

Prea*ot, Jaiues W. for the least earth. money of any man on Niagara Falls Wearing1 Out. Formerly the Canadian side of the Niagara Falls was U-shaped, which caused the name of Horseshoe Falls to be given it. For the last ten or a dozen years, however, that side of the fall has been V-shapei, instead of U. shaped, the change, being caused by the wearing away of the ledgrge over which the waters pour. On Jan. 4th, 1889, a great displacement of rocks again took place, and now the Canadian side of the great cataract is again as Horseshoe Falls. It is pretty generally known that the falls of Niagara are moving to the south. A deep cut through the solid rock marks the course they have taken in their backward march. It is a wonderful excavation, a miffhty canal dug out b}r the sheer force of falling water. Not less astonishinpr is the removal of all this debris. The rocks have*1 been thoroughly pulverised and swgpt on into Lake Ontario. Once it was ""believed that the falls would ultimately wear back to Lake Erie and degenerate into a second-class rapids. The latest idea is that the falls will recede two miles farther to the southward and then stp; that is, as far as the backward tendency is concerned. The cause of this will be that at that point a solid foundation for the limestone ledge over which the waters pour will be found. Two miles of a wearing back will-make the falls only eighty feet in height, instead of 160, as at present.— Philadelphia Press.

This is no longer a dream bat a reality. They begin the year 1893 with a membership of 99,318, fourth in numerical strengh among the great organizations composing the National Fraternal Congress, and enjoying greater prosperity than ever before. The history of this Order has been a most remarkabel one, even from the date of its birth, but the year 1892 eclipses all that have gone before, as the following statement of its business will show: The membership January 1,1S№ , was: Supreme Tent, K. 0. T. M »....„ _ 24,040 Great Camp for Michigan —..«.. -31,11 2 Ladies of the Maccabees ~ .....7,20 0 Total 62,352 The membership January 1, 1898, was: Supreme Tent K. O. T. II ..39,87 8 Great Camp for Michigan »..^«^...... « 46,940 Ladies of tbe Maccabees 12,500 Its membership must be composed largely of young men, as we find the average age of the members is about 33 years. This is undoubtedyl one great reason for its low rate of mortality and correspondingyl law cost for death benefits, and is one of its valuable features, one that strongly recommends it to all classes. Its eqaitable plan, careful and conservative methods, immediate payment of all just claims, enterprising, yet economical management and the zeal and ability displayed by its executive officers have won for it tbe Commanding place it occupies today in the estimation of all who have, become acquainted with its work. That it is destined in the near future to become the leading beneficiary order , of the country there seems little doubt.— Port Huron Times. (Additional local on eighth page.) Business Pointer!* Washington Gardner. Rev. Washington Gardner, of Albion, lectured in the Cong'l church last Tuesday evening as was announced, on the lecture coarse. Although the night was very stormy, the chnroh was well filled with an Attentive audience, who were completely carried away with the eloquence of the orator. Rev. Gardner can picture a battlefield in words so real that.it takes but little imagination to hear tbe missies of death as they fly overhead, see the destruction, or bear the groans of th» dying. Those wbo beard him will remember the picture much longer than if it had been painted on canvas. 99;818 A net gain daring the year of 36, 966 members, Since Jan. 1,1892 , there has been a net gain of 674 subordinate branches of the Order, making the total number of tents and hives at the present time 1,924. In the Supreme Tent 174 death claims have been paid daring the year, amounting to $314,765 , and 31 disability claims, amounting to $6,000 . In the Great Camp for Michigan 198 death claims were paid amounting to $295,255.00 , and 101 disability claims amounting to $5,700 ; while tbe Ladies of the Maccabees have paid out during tbe year for death claims $22, 000, making tbe total expenditures during tbe year for death and disability claims as follows: Supreme Tent $320,75 6 Great Uamp.... 300,955 Ladies of the Maccabees 22,000 Total $£43,711 One of the most gratifying results of the year is, tbat this large amount of money and great number of death and disability claims have been paid at less expense to the members than in the year previous, one assessment le.*s being called in 1892 than in 1891. The deaths have been less than five to each one thousand members. This is a very Tow rate for an organization of its age, and evidences the care taken in tbe selection of members. The cost to members under 35 years of age in the Supreme Tent during the past year, exclusive of Tent dues, was $6 for each $1,000 of life benefits carried; at 45 years it was $9 per $1, 000. In the Great Uamp it was $6 for $1, 000 at the age of 35, and $850 at the age of 45. These figures are less than one fourth what life benefits alone vrould have cost in the Old Line Life Insurance Companies, while the Maccabees furnished disability benefits arising from sickness, injury or old age, in addition to life benefits, without extra charge—the figures above quoted covering costof all these benefits for the year. It is little wonder that it has grown so rapidly, when it oilers such advantages to the people at so low a cost. The total amount of death and disability claims paid by the Order since its organization to Jan. 1,189|L* is $1, 912,587.75, every claim Wingpaid immediately on presentation of* proper proofs. The Order is now established in 29 states and provinces, and growing more rapidly than any other similar society of the country, as is shown by its business for December, when it received over 4,500 applications for membership and organized over 60 subordinate branches.

THE MISADVENTURES OF JOHN NICHOLSON. BT ROBEBT hOVHi STEVENSON. CHAPTER II—CONTINUED. Ho was a young1 man on whom, at the highest point of lovely exaltation, there had fallen a blow too sharp to be supported alone; and not many hundred yards away hia greatest friend was sitting at supper; aye, and ereu expecting him. Was it not in the nature of man that he should run there? He went in quest of sympathy —in quest of that droll article that we all suppose ourselves to want when in a strait, and have agreed to oall advice; and he went, besides, with vague but rather splendid expectations of relief. J^lan was rich, or would be so when he came of a#e. Bf a stroke of the pen he might remedy this misfortune, and avert that dreaded interview with Mr. Nicholson, from which John now shrunk in imagination as the hand draws back from tire. Close under the Calton Hill there runs a certain narrow avenue, part street, part by-road. The head of it faces the doors of the prison; its tail descends into the sunless slums of Low Calton. On one hand it is overhung by the crags of the hill; on the other by an old graveyard. Between these two the roadway runs in a trench, sparsely lighted at night, sparsely frequented by day, and bordered, when it was cleared the place tombs, by-dingy and ambiguous houses. One ot these was the house •f Colette*, and at his door our illstarred John was presently beating for admittance. In an evil hour he gratified the inquiries of the contraband hotel-keeper; in an evil hour he penetrated into a somewhat unsavory interior. Alan, to be sure, was there, seated in a room lighted by noisy gasjets, beside a dirty tuble-cloth, engaged on a coarse meal, and in the company of several tipsy members of the junior bar. But Alan was not sober; ho had lost a thousand pounds on a horne-race, had received vka news at dinner-time, and was now. in default ofany possible means of extrication, drowning the memory of his predicament. He.to help John! The thing was impossible; he couldn't kelp himself. "If you have a beast of a father," said he, "I can toll you I have a brute of o trustee." "I'm not going to hear my father nailed a beast," said John, with a beating heart, feeling that ho risked the last sound rivet of the chain th'at bound him to life. But Alan was quite good-natured, 4 All right, old fellow," said he. '•Mos' respec'ablo man* your father." Aad he introduced his friend to his companions as "old Nicholson, the what-cTye-call-um's son." John sat in dumb agony. Colette's foul walls and maculate table linen, and even down to Coletto's villainous oastora-, seemed like objects in a mlghtmare. And just then there came a knock and a scurrying; the police, so lamentably absent from the Calton Hill, appeared upon the scene, and the party, taken flagrante delicto, with their glasses at their elbow, were seized, marched up to the police office, and all duly summoned to appear as witnesses in the subsequent ease against the arch-shebeener, Coiotte. It was a sorrowful and a mightily sobered company that came forth again. The vague terror of public opinion weighed gene/ally on them all; but there were private and particular horrors on the minds of individuals. Alan stood in dread of his trustee, already sorely tried. One of the group was a son of a country minister, another of a judge; John, the unhappiest of all, had David Nicholson to father,the idea of facing •whom on such a scandalous subject was physically sickening. They stood awhile consulting under the buttresses of Saint Giles; thence they adjourned to the lodgings of one of the number in North Castle street, where, for that matter, they might 'lave had quite as good a supper^ and far better drink, than in the dangerous paradise from which they had been routed. Thore, over an almost tearful glass, they debated their position. Each explained he had the world to lose if the affair went on, and he appeared as a witness. It was remarkable what bright prospects were just then in the act of opening before each of that little company of youths, and what pious consideration for the feelings of their families bofan now to well from them. Each, moreover, was lr *\n odd state of destitution. Not O\Q could bear his share of the finer not one but evinced a wonderful twinkle of hope that each of the others (in succession) was the very man wh/> could step in to make good the deficit. One took a high hand; he could not pay his share; if it went to a trial, he should bolt; he had always felt the English bar to be his true sphere. Another branched out into touching details about his family, and was not listened to. John, in the midst of this disorderly competition of poverty and meanness, sat stunned, contemplating the mountain bulk of his misfortune. At last, upon a pledge that each should apply to his family with a common frankness, this convention of unhappy young asses broke up, went down the common stair, and in the gray of the spring morning, with the streets lying dead empty all about them, the lamps burning on into the daylight in diminished lustre, and the birds beginning to sound premonitory notes from the groves of the town gardens, went each his own way, with bowed head and echoing footfall. The rooks were awake in Randolph Crescent; but the windows looked down, discreetly blindud.on the return of the prodigal. John's pass key was a recent privilege; thin was the first time it had been u.sed; and, oh! with what a sickening sense of his unworthines* he now inserted it into the well-oiled lock and entered that citadel of the proprieties! All slept: the gas in the hall had boon left faintly burning to light his return; a dreadful stillness reigned, broken by the deep ticking of the eight-day clock. He put the gas out, and sat on a chair in the hall, waiting and counting the minutes, longing for any human countenance. But when at last he heard the alarm spring its rattle in the lower story, and the servants begin to be about, ho instantly lost heart and fled to his own room, where he threw himself upon the bed. In. Which John Enjoys the Harvest Home. Shortly after breukfu t. at which he assisted with a highly tragical countenance*, John sought his father where he sat, presumably in volitions meditation ort-the Sabbath mornings. The old gentleman looked up with that sour, inquisitive expression that 'came so near to smiling and was so different in effect. ••This is a time when I do not lik*1 to be disturbed,'1 lie said. •'I know that," returned John, "but I have—I want—I've made a dreadful mess of it," he broke out, and turned to the window. Mr. Nicholson sat silent for an appreciable time, while his unhappy son surveyed the poles in the back yree.'), and a certain yellow cat that was perched upon the wall. Despair sat upon John as he jra/ed: and he raged to think of the dreadful series of his misdeeds, and the essential'innocence that lay behind them. "Weil," said the father-, with an obvious effort, "what is it?" '•Maclean jjave me four hundred pounds to put in the bank, sir," beijfan J'Nhn; "and Tin sorry to say that I've been robbvd of it!" '•Robbed of it?" ri-ied Mr., Nicholson, with a strony rising inflection. "Robbed? He careful what you say, John!' "I can't say anything els«\ sir; 1 was just robbed of it," said John, in desperation, sullenly. "And where and whon did this extraordinary event take place?" inquired the father. "On the Calton Hill about twelve last night.:' •'The Calton Hill?" repeated Mr. Nicholson. "And what were you doing there at such a time of night?" "Nothing1, sir," says John. Mr. Nicholson drew in his breath. "And how came tho money in your hands at twelve last night?" he asked, sharply. . "I neglected that piece of business.'' said John, anticipating comment; and then in his own dialect: "1 clean forgot all about it." "Well," said his father, "it's a most extraordinary story. Have you communicated wHh the police." "I have," answered poor John, the blood leaping to his face. "They think they know the man that did it. I dare say the money will bo rV?- coverod, if'that was all," said ho. with a desperato indifference, which his father set down to levity; but which sprung* from tho consctousuesa of worsts behind. ^, ••Your mother's watch, too?" asked Mr. Nicholson. "Oh, the watch is all right," cried John. "At least, I moan I was coming to the watch—the fact is, I am aaharaed to say, I—I had pawned tho watch before. Here is tho ticket; they didn't find that; tho watch can be redeemed; they don't sell pledges." Tho lad panted out these phrases, one after another, like minute puns; but at the last word, which rang in that stately chamber liko an oath, his heart failed him utterly; and the dreaded silence settled on father and son. It was broken by Mr. Nicholson picking up the pawn ticket: "John Froggs, 85 Pleasance," he read, and thfin, turning upon John with a brief flash of passion and disgust, "Who is John Frogg's P" he cried. "Nobody," said John. "It was just a name." "An alias," his father commented. "Oh! I think scarcely quite that/1 said the culprit} *4t's » Aorm, they all do it, the man seemed to understand, we had a great deal of fun over the nan>y'1 — He paused at that, for he saw his father wince at the picture like a man physically struck; and again there was silence. ••I do not think." said Mr. Nicholson, at last, "that I* a man ungenerous father. J have never grudged you money within reason, for any avowable purpose; you have just t© come to me and speak: And now X find that you have forgotten all decency and all natural feeling, and actually pawned — pawned — your mother's watch. You must have had some temptation; 1 will do you the justice to suppose it was a strong one. What did you want with this money?" "I would rather not tell you," said John. "It will only make you angry." "1 will not be fenced with," cried his father. "There must be an end of disingenuous answers. What did you want with this money?" "To lend it to Houston, sir," says John. "I thought I had forbidden you to speak to that young man?" asked his father. ••Yes, sir," said John, "but I only met him." ••Where?" came tho deadly question. "hi a billiard room." was the damning answer. Thus, had John's single departure from the truth brought instant punishment. For no other purpose but to tsee Alan would he have entered a billiard room; but he had de-sired to palliate tho fact of his disobedience, and now it happened that he frequented these disreputable haunts upon his own account. ' Once more Mr. Nicholson digested 1 tho vile tidings in silence, and when i John stole a glanco at his father's I countenance lie was abashed to see the marks of suffering. ••Well," said the old gentleman at last, "I cannot pretend not to be simply bowed down. ! rose *vus morning what the world caas iv happy man —happy, at least, in a >on of whom I I. thought I could be reasonably j proud"— - • But it was beyond human nature to , endure this longer, and John interi rupted almost .with a scream.

"No matter how much de cars dey gite loaded de ingine w'sit does de work gits along strictly on water." "So," exclaimed the father to the young man who had run oS with hia daughter and married her and was returning to patch up a peace, "so you and that girl eloped together, did you?" "Well, yes," responded the younjj fellow in a businesslike tone; "you didn't think we had eloped apart, did you?" Her Father, interestedly—And yon really enjoy your society for the higher culture of women? Minnie, enthusiastically— Indeed I do, immensely.

Hut for my part," he cried, bursting into j tears, "I wish that I'wus deaii!'' and i he fell on his knees before a chair and hid his face. * i WhetheF"~~h~fs father spoke, and J whether he remained long in the room, I or at once departed, are points lost to i history. A horrid turmoil of mind | and body; bursting sobs; broken, van* : ishing thoughts, now of indignation, ; now of remorse; broken elementary !. whiffs of consciousness, of the smell , of the horse-hair on tho chair bottom; of the. jangling of church bells that {.now began to make day horrible | throughout the confines of the city; ; of the hard floor that bruised his ' knees; of the taste of tears that frmrrd their way into his mouth; for a period of time, the duration of which I can not guess, while J refuse to dwell longer on its agony, these were the whole of God's world for John Nicholson. When at last, as by the touching of a spring, he returned again to clearness of consciousness and even a measure of composure, the bells had but just done ringing, and tho Sabbath silence was still marred by the patter of belated feet. Hy the clock above tho lire, as well as by these more speaking signs, the service had not '. long begun; and the unhappy sinner, if his father had really gone to church, ! might count on near two hours of: j only comparative unhappinoss. With ' his father, the superlative degree rei turned infallibly. He knew it by ; every shrinking tiber in his body; he know it by the sudden dizzy whirling of his brain, at the m«re thought of that calamity. An hour and a half, !>orhaps an hour and three-quarters, i if the doctor was long-winded, and then would begin again that active agony from which, even in tho dull ache of the present, he shrank as from tho bite of fire. He saw, in a vision, | tho family pew, the somnolent' cushions, ttie Bibles, the psalm books, j Maria with her smelling salts, hia | lather sitting spectacled and critical, and/at once ho was struck with in- •donation, not unjustly. It was inhuman to po off to church, i and leave a sinnor in suspense, un- j punished; unforgiven. And at the: very touch of criticism, the paternal i sanctity was lessened; yet tho paternal terror only grew, and the two strands of feeling pushod him in tho same direction.

We received the past week the Superintendant's report of the •* Keform School at Lansing. It is a complete report, and all of the work, except binding the books, was done in the printing office of the Reform School, by the boys who are learbing the trade there. - • • The secret of success in life is to keep busy, to be persevering, patient and untirirg in the pursuit or calling you are following. The busy ones may now and then make mistakes, but.it is better to risk these than to be idle and inactive. Keep doing, whether it be at work or seeking recreation. Mdtion.is life, and the busy ones are the happiest. Cheerful, active labor is a blessing. An old philosopher says: "The firo-fiy.only shines when on the wing; so it is with the mind; when once we rest, we darken." The oddest journal in the metropolis is the so-called newspaper published by the Mongolians of Mott street. It is written \vith a earners hair pencil upou re million paper, and is pasted npon the wall of No. 16 of that thoroughfare, and on the two telegraph poles which stand between Chatnam Square and Fell street. All day long it is read and studied by almond-eyed crowds. Even in the evening a belated lauudryman cen be seen running his eyes over its tea-chest characters. The editors are called scribes, and write at the order of their customers, charging a good figure for their skill and brush. The favorite editor is said to make as high as $-0 a day but, beyond his editorial work, he writes cards ard prayertickets for his customers. One feature of this journal in commendable. If one of their members is thrown out of employment, he puts up a notice to that effect, and every other member assists him.—Ex. Someihing- New.

The perusal of the Reform School report is, very interesting, 8tttHays bare many facts to which the people are blind to-day. Many parents do not know, and more, do not seem to care, where their boys spend their evenings. A few dollars spent in good books (and they can be secured now at a very low price) will save many a mother an aching heart and many a restless hour. We take the following from the report: / "To a youth accustomed to the atmosphere of prisons and the haunts of (Jebauchery which lead to them the foolish discourses of j a drunken man is more attractive than the religious instruction of a minister: profanity sounds bette r in his ears than the precepts pf the gospel; the cup of intoxication has more charm for him than the unexciting drink of the Beform School; a lazy, idle, dissolute life is more agreeable than daily labor; and instruction in evil received in grog-shops and gambling-saloons, are listeued to with more avidity than are those of the school-master and chaplain.'1 The Superiutendant says: "Many of the boys admitted, according to the testimony of the officers, the parents, and the boys themselves,have not been under a healthful parental restraint. "Neglect, cver-indulgence, unhappy martial re'ations, drunkenness, and in many cases positive willfulness on the part of the child, have opened the door for these delinquencies, and once opened it has been beyond the power of the parent or guardian to close it. "The boy liecame master of the situation, and follows the inclination of his own mind, or falls into tho hands of-tlie erafiy ami more experienced criminal. He soon becomes an ndept in the ways of vice, or fulls into the power of tile law.

ILL FIRST-"' *$S WORX HOWELL MICH. Washington, TVb. 1«, 18f.):\ With tho firing of biij ^nns tnul to i,ho music of silver and gold trumpets the silver and the autisilver army marched up the hill, and then marched down again. Congress has this week been in one respect like the snide traveling show, it failed to keep the glittering advance promises it had made on the bill-boards, and in spite of the liberal use of threats, promises and persuasion, nothing' was done, and the silver law still, occupies its place on the statute books. Senator-elect Martin was in Washington this week, but as he had some important business in New York which may Keep him there ten days or longer, he concluded, after consultation with Senator Peffer and other friends, not to present his credentials as the successor of Senator Perkins, to fill out the term of the late Senator Plumb. There are two reasons why his credentials may not be presented until the closing hours of this session and possibly not until the extra session meets. First, there are a number of bills pending in which Kansas is interested, that for opening the Cherokee strip ninong them, and Senator Perkins can render more effective service than a new man, unfamiliar with Senate proceedings, and lastly there is a doubt as to whether the republican majority of the present Senate would allow him to take his seat, while there is none about the action of'the Senate after the 4th of March. Representative Bryan, of Nebraska, says of M. V. Allen, the newly-elected populist Senator from that state: "He is now upon the bench, having been elected a district judge by the populists. He is regarded as a safe and able man. He was formerly a republican, but as the democrats in the legislature joined with the populists in electing him, I take it for granted that he will act with the j democrats in the organization of; the Senate and upon the tariff.1' The opponents of the anti-option bill say that it is dead, and can never get through the House. It is just as well, however, not to be too sure about this, as these are the same people who said be- • fore the bill was passed by the Senate that a vote could not be reached on it before the -A of Mar. It is human nature to see future happenings'as you wish them."' Lack of time may prevent the House committee that is investigating tho expenditures of the Panama canal company in the U. i S., getting to the bottom of things. It is already clear that an enormous amount of money was spent in this country, some think as much as £25,000,000, and that much of it was spent for the purpose of influencing public opinion which was at one time inclined to be very unfavorable to the Canal, but the receivers of the money are yet to be uncovered. XA credence is given here to the- rumor that members of the committee are purposely killing time so that nothing would be found out. The House Appropriations committee has agreed to amendments to the pension appropriation bill providing for a transfer of the Pension office to the War Dept, and the detail of Army offices to manage it; also for the suspension of all pensions paid to men having an annual income of $600 or more, to widows who married since 1870, and except foi total disabilities, to non-resident aliens. - Chairman Holmau voted with the republic] can's agaiust these amendments. J No 'disputes of any kind occurred Wednesday when the Senato and Hou3e held a joint session a:xl counted the electoral votes. The official announcement of the result was rather too chestnutty to create anything like a sensation. Tlie Quarantine bill is now in the hands of President Harrison, and will probably be a law by the time this is printed. It passed the House without serious opposition, just as it. originally passed the Senate. The country may now rest assured that if the cholera gets into the United States this year, it will not ba for the lack of legal authority to take the necessary precautions against it. This bill furnishes another example of the fact, sometimes forgotten,'that the will of the people, when expressed, is always stronger than the will of politicians. If the democrats in Congress who are generally credited with enjoying Mr. Cleveland's confidence know what they are talking about, an early extra session of the Fifty-third Congress is now a certainty. There are, however, still some doubters. Representative Abbott, of Texas, is one of them. He says, "There is no danger of an extra session, for Mr. Cleveland has too much sagacity to call Congress together to try to accomplish the repeal of the silver law, with all the chances against such repeal." But Mr. Abbott is in the minority. Negotiations for the annexation of Hawaii are now going on, but the result is not yet in sight. .Which party represents free trade, and which protection? The question seems to b3 pertinent when all of! the republican members of the House committee on ways and means vote iti^favor of'a bill to put all works of art on the free list, and with two exceptions all of the democratic members' UTTERS!

A i*alr of Bohemian Girls Joined nether In On* Body—They Arm teen Years Old and Very Delicate. To- Flfaud GEORGE DO MAUKIF.R, the artist, thinks he has made the discovery that "women are growing broader, latter and more generally healthy.11 Be are the hats they wear to the theater, we are told, and so will their draperies do anon when crinoline returns. ^ AN Oakland girl has set a pleasant pattern by shooting at a man who refused to wear with becoming resignation the mitten she had bestowed upon him. This is much better than allowing herself to become a target, and the man, after acquittal on the plea of insanity, to marry some other girl. - A HANDSOME Nebraska woman has been [sentenced to the penitentiary for four years, she having confessed to the killing of a prominent citizen. The evidence showed that the deceased only got what he deserved, and the inference that the handsome young1 woman is suffering for not having shot quicker is fair. MAKING due allowance for the ravages of thirty years on the memory and the natural tendency of the human mind toward embellishment, the average veteran can tell a pretty loud army story; but he isn't a marker to the average young man born since the war. when he gets fairly started on his army reminiscences. IN the new role of jack-in-the-box, with the British cabinet pulling the string, the khedive will be one of the most amusing little potentates on earth. If the land of the Phariohs cannot respect its sovereign it must have the satisfaction of knowing that It need not fear him, in which respect it is more fortunate than sonic of its larger acquaintances. CANADA is likely to find commercial discrimination against the Tinted States an unprofitable policy. Doubledealing and unfairness do not pay in the long run. It was the distinct understanding of our government that In the~conference of the dominion commissioners and our state department the former pledged the Ottawa government to the removal of the canal tolls. No LONG EH shall we be able to gauge the depth of bereavement by the length of a mourner's crape if the princess of Wales is to be the arbiter. She positively declines to wear crape for her deceased son, and good sense from Dublin to Bombay will endorse her decision. Sorrow can never bo expressed by mechanical devices nor measured by the length or duration of the mourning goods. f HEN THE SIAMese T w i n s were alive and making money, b e c a u s e they were different from other people, "the medical folk all [ o v e r t h e world i couldn't rest easy nights tor thinking up plans whereby they might cut the ligament which bound Eng and Chang so that the twins might be just like anybody else and lose their job. Hut in the case of the Bohemian twins, Rosa and Josepha Blazel, nature seems to have made up her mind that there was going to be t>o such, foolishness. The smartest Burgeon that ever handled a scalpel couldn't cut Rosa and Joseuha apart without killing them or her. Down to the hips they are two separate bodies. Below the hips there are four legs, which would be the proper allowance for two ordinary girls. But there is only one woman, and that is what makes it doubtful whether it is proper to call Rosa and Josepha "her" or "them." They were born in Skreychow, Bohemia, and are now 15 years old. Their parents, simple country folk, gave them over to a French impressario, which is the European equivalent for our dime-muse am manager, named j Forbe, who first brought them out in Paris at the Theater Imperial de la Gaiete and is now taking them through j Europe on a tour. They are not very well grown for 15, but are delicate and im\\. Their hair and complexions &^>A dark and their faces resemble each other. They are not simply grown together at the hips, but the backbones are united at the coccyx. The complications of existence of this THK discovery that a gentleman perfected the incandescent lamp away back in the sixties is not sur-! prising. Such discoveries are always ; beifig made. However, tho gentle- i man's ingenuity in hiding his light BO effectually under a bushel is almost as remarkable as the invention, and hit modeBty deserves more reward tban an unappreciative world is likely to bestow. THE rusty ribs of the dead crinoline rattle ominously in the grave. It is feared that they are about to be p«t in flesh, and stalk in circumambient horror across two continents that had been :onsidered partly civilized.

THE TOMB OF MOTHER EVE. A Temple Near Mecca Declared by Arabs to K« the Spot The Arabs claim that Eve's tomb is at Jiddah, the seaport of Mecca. The temple, with a palm growing out of the solid stone roof (a curiosity which is of itself a-'wonder of the Orient) is supposed to mark the last resting place of the first wdman, According to Arabian tradition Eve measured over two hundred* feet in height, which 6trangely coincides with an account of our first parents written by a member of the French Academy of Sciences a few years ago, who also claimed a height of over two hundred feet for both of the tenants of the Garden of Eden. Eve's tomb, which is in a graveyard lurrounded with high, white walls, »nd which has* not been opened for a single interment for over a thousand pears, 1R the shrine of Thousands of deroted Ishmaelites, who, according to Notes and Queries, make a pilgrimage lo the spot once every seven years.

Th« United State* Minuter* at Hoaolulu Establishes a Proteetontte. The steamer Australia has arrived at San Francisco and brings the good news of the action of United States Minister Stevens in entablising a protectorate over the inland, by issuing the following proclamation; UXITKD STATUS LKOATIOJV, February l, 1893. To the Hawaiian people: At the request of the provisional government oi Hawaiian Islands, I hereby, in the name of the United States of America, us- &ume protection of the Hawaiian Island for the protection of the life and property and occupation of public buildings and Hawaiian soil, so far aa pay be necessary for the purpose specified, but not interfering with the administration of public affairs by the provisional government. This uction is taken pending, and subject to negotiations at \Vashington. (Signed.) JOHN G. STKVKNS,* Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary of the United States. Approved and executed by G. 0. Wilts, captain U. S. N., commanding the United States steamer lioston. Capt. Wilts repaired to the government building aud a few moments later a ba tall ion from tho United States ship lioston under Lieut. Swinburn, marched up the street, entered the grounds and drew up in front of the building? Detachments from three volunteer companies, A., li. and (.'., were drawn up in line under command of their respective captains, Seigler, Guun and Canara. Lieut. Rush read in a loud voice the proclamation, and amid the breathless expectancy of all present the American flag saluted by the troops [ and the cannon of the lioston was . raised over the tower of Aliolani (the royal) hall. Notes From Honolulu. The British minister has recognized the new provisional government. The executive and advisory councils of the new government formed a new legislature and repealed the lottery franchise act. Queen Lilioukalani lias spent most of her time outside of Honolulu but is charged with returning at intervals to consult Kahunas in the houses of some of her royal adherents. News has been received of the death by drowning.at Hawaii of Miss Stevens, the eldest doughter of the American minister resident. The flags on all the consulates were put at half mast. Martial law still exists and although theie are no hardships reported yet the people, both native and foreign, chafe under the continued presence of armed men in the streets, bvtt the usual quietude prevails. The lioston marines and sailors are paraded through the streets several times daily, but no open averse comment is made to their presence. The following is the form of oath for all residents desiring to am'rm allegiance to the provisional government: "I do solemnly swear, in the presence of Almighty Uoii, that I will support the provisional government of the Hawaiian Islam's promulgated and proclaimed on the 17th day of January, 1S<*3. Not hereby renouncing, but exprossly reserving all allegiance to any foreign country now owing by me."

There wouLd be a point at which the upward pressure of the stream would exactly balance the gravity pressure of the bowlder, holding it, the halfton rock, there suspended. As to cutting these streams, Professor Christy says that he has often tried to drive a crowbar into one of them. The stream felt as solid as a bar of iron, and although he could feel the point of the crowbar enter the water for perhaps half an inch, the bar was thrown forward with such force that it was almost impossible to retain it in the grasp. An ax swung by the most powerful man alive could not penetrate the stream, yet it might be cut by the finger of a "child if a child were seated on a railway train moving parallel with the stream in the same direction and with the same velocity. That velocity would be considerably more than a mile a minute. Justice Bradley, of the supreme court, has also tried his intellect upon the mathematics of the problem submitted by Judge Field. He delivers this opinion: "I can well believe all you say with regard to the tremendous force of streams issuing from the pipes of the miners under a large head of water. Of course they would produce instant death if directed against a man standing near, and would probably cut his body in two." The statements here presented in summary by the American Stockman, will not astonish engineering experts.

THE l'ror. THEORY OF STORMS, the Great EUY'8 QATARBH CREAM BALM Redtteld Finds It in September Gale. In the year 1821 a severe storm prevailed along the Eastern coast, which for many years was known as the "great September gale." It held that title until September, 1869,when another and more remarkable one occurred, which rather disturbed ita claim to tho honor. It was a little time after the first storm that William (J. ltediield, the meteorologist, while making a journey in Massachusetts, was struck by a curious fact, says the Popular Science Monthly. He noticed that in Massachusetts that the trees prostrated by the wind all lay with their heads to the southeast, showing that the gale there was from the northwest, but in Connecticut the trees blown down by the same storm lay head to the northwest, showing that the gale had been a southeast one. He ascertained, moreover, that when the wind was blowing southeast in Middlotown, his home, it was northwest at a place not seventy miles from there. It was then that the idea flashed across his rnin-d that the gale was a progressive whirlwind. That was a great thought. It was a flash of perception as came to Newton when he connected the falling apple with the planets in space. It was such an insight into the meaning of a fact as James Watt had when he saw the possibilities of tho force that was rattling the lid of the kettle on his mother's fire. The development of 1hat idea was destined to put Kedtield in the ranks of the great Scientific thinkers of this day. He made this storm the basis of his investigations, following his researches into its movements, by a careful collection of facts in relation to others like it. For ton years he studied and examinod and compared facts before he published his theory of storms. At the Mercy of the "Wind*. Captain. Perkes, of the steamship Loosok, voyaging between Hongkong and Shanghai, witnessed during the recent gales in that quarter the phenomenon (which has often been described) of thousands of birds and insocts which had got in tho vortex of tho storm and were driven hither and thither,apparently stunned and senseless with the buffeting they had received. Many of the birds fell senseless on the deck and lay quite still, whilo the insects, though alive seemed to have lost the power to sting. Help somebody eise yourself.
