Washington:" Cuba has simply takeu possession of the capital body and bones and but little else can bo heard on the streets, or, in fact, anj where else. • The interest culminated in a mass meeting held at the Columbia opera house, at which startling charges were made aguinst the state department under the Cleveland administration, showing conclusively that the government was playing directly into the hands of Spain. Surprise and indignation was aroused by the reading of samples letters written by the state department under Mr Cleveland to American consuls in Cuba, ^nd signed by Assistant Secretary Rockhill: "l advise you to make your reports less favorable to the insurgents hereafter, as the administration wishes to avoid all possible , friction with Spain." "Hereafter, when you have matters of this kind (Spanish outrages on pauincos) to report, mark your communications 'confidential' so that if senators demand cousular reports from Cuba your reports need not be given to the senate," . , M i C H > O A N A i ^ 0 4 n i ^ A X Q # Watt«s;poltoav l a g s i o n s d the * 15..-white t*aywhen he called upon a young lady to whom be was engaged he told her all about it.

Several senators and congressmen participated in the exercises and letters of regret were read from others, including Senators Burrows, and Chandler. The latter wrote, in part: "I wish tosee the United States declare and maintain the independence of the island as France did that of the American colonies and made the United States a nation. I hope and believe that congress and the President will soon formally recognize a state of war and Cuban belligerency. This step cannot fail to insure the Cuban independence. Moreover, without delay we ought to send u fleet and au army to land upon the soil of Cuba, first to protect the lives and property ot American citizens, and secondly, to stop the atrocious and uncivilized methods of warfare adopted by the Spanish generals. President McKinley willingly recognizes the binding force of the platform upon which he was elected,* and will soon do his part towards making Cuba free and independent." Karl Decker, a well-known newspaper correspondent who has just returned from Cuba, gave a description of the condition of affairs there and of the pitiable plight of many of the peo«- pie suffering for the necessities of life, He ridiculed the claims of Gen. Weyler that the island was pacified and said that if the Cubans were granted belligerent rights by the U. S. they would certainly win. It is certain that congress, acting in conjunction with the President, will take some action within in a very short time as the sentiment in both houses is growing stronger daily.

The bill to close photograph galleries on Sundays was made the butt of a good deal of fun in the House and w then, knocked out. Rep. Stoneman bill to compel notaries to keep a record of all instruments they execute and to have a notary public seal was killed ou the grouud that it involved a needless expense to notaries. The House also declined to pass the Brioker bill to prevent express companies from charging more for express over the lines of two companies than the maximum charge tor (he same distance over the line of one, company. The Stoneman bill for the }ocul taxation of railroads has been referred to the House committee on *: general taxation. The House committee on Hquor traffic has reported out the bill for the taxation of beer, recommending that it be cut in two, making it 33 instead of 64 cents on a barrel of beer. This rate, if the bill passes, it is estimated, will raise «31*0,000 in taxes. Apparently the railroads have given up the idefcof opposiug legislation in the House and will depend upon the Senate to defeat or cripple such bills as meet the displeasure of the railroad people. The House in committee of th^ wholu, withjvery little opposition. agreed to bills for a 3-cent passenger fare in the upper peninsula; for an interchangeable mileage book of 500 miles good for any member of a family or firm; for a 500 mile book at 2 cents per mile 1n the lower peninsula and 3 cents in the upper, There was not an objectiou to the Eikhoff bill; giving liquor dealers the right to keep their saloons open on New Year's, Labor day and on July I- The bill also provided that township boards may permit liquor dealers to keep their saloons open from 6 o'clock in the morning until 11 o'clock p. m. The Mason constitutional amendment, providing that all electors must be able to read the constitution of the state in English, which has passed the Senate- has also been agreca to in the House committee of the whole. The amendment to the constitution if adopted will not deprive those who are physically disabled from reading, nor those who had the right to.vote .Jau. 1, 1897, from their electoral franchise. Rep. Colvin tried to kill the bill appropriating 3^,000 for the state horticultural society urging that it wax a useless expense and one only to keep people, in offices. It was agreed to however. The House failed to pass the Dickinson bicycle path bill, which provided that boards of supervisors should license bicycles for a sum not less than 50 cents or more than 91, and provided for the election of three county bicycle sidepath commissioners (to be bicyclists), to devote the license moneys to the construction of bicycle side paths in the county. The vote on the bill was 45 lor to 10 against. Cyclists generally petitioned for the passage of the bill and it will be reconsidered. The Senate, iu response to the resolution of the House, asking for a conference committee on the Merriman railroad specific tax bill, authorized the lieutenant-governor to appoint a committee of five to meet, the House committee. Senators Merriam, M ait land, Preston. Teeple and You mans were named. The Zimmerman bill for an appropriation of $3,000 to keep the U. of M. hospitals open during the summer met some opposi- "tionrbifftt passedvas did the following measures: Amending the plank road law so that toll cannot be. collected on less than a mile of road; amending the tax law so that bondsmen shall sanction the appointment of a deputy to township treasurers; appropriating 910,000 for improvements at the Jackson state prison; prohibiting the employment of barmaids. Speaker Gordon named as the House conference committee on the Merriman specific tax bill Hops. Chamberlain, Sawyer, Fleischhaucr, Kelly and Washer. It was generally conceded that the committee was strongly in favor of the railroads, althougb on the final vote on the Merriman bill, when it»was seen that it would surely pass, .all of the committeemen had voted for i t »Immediately after the session Col. John Atkinson walked up to {he speaker's desk and denounced" the appointment as an outrage, especially the selection of Chamberlain and Sawyer, the strongest fighters the railroads had i s the House.

All railroad legislation was held back until the conference committee should report. The Senate took np the bill to remove the homeopathic college from Aun Arbor to Detroit, and finally refused to pass the bill by a vote of 10 to 15. The Senate passed the following appropriations: Electric lighting plant forthe U. of M., 920,000; industrial home fSsgirls, 980,000; dairy and food commission, 920,000^ home for the feeble minded, 9119,000; farmers' institutes, 911,000. Also the following bills: Attending the tax law iBO that township treasurers shall turn over all county money in their hands to the county treasurer, Jan, 10¾ instead of, waiting until March; for the payment of expenses in lawsuits the state is interested in or a party to. The House defeated the bill giving railroad sompanies the right to Lease from street railway companies and vice versa. CoL Atkinson opposed it on the ground that it would come too near to allowing the consolidation of railroads. The vote was reconsidered and the bill tabled for another attempt to pass it. The bill to prevent the holding of continuous horse races longer than 12 days was killed. The Senate refused to confirm the governor's appointment of ex-Mayor Brooks, of Jackson, as a member of the board of control of Jackson prison. Dr. Kdgar's emasculation bill was knocked out in the House, but was reconsidered and will get another triaL they had been grossly insulted by the attacks and insinuations of CoL Atkinson and bitter feelings were engendered which will undoubtedly cause constant fighting until the end of the session.

Pearl turned white and red, and- Tom sat nursinr-his knee, watching' us both very intently. Presently Peart came to my side. "Ate you angry with me still?" she asked. •4'Angry, my child!" I said, very slowly. "What have I to be angry about?" Tears came into her eyes. "You will kits me, then, Daddy Beecroft!" She laid her face close to mine, and put her arms about my neck. "Ton wilVfloon get well now," she whispered. *I have been ill a Ions time, have I not, my Pearl?" "A long, long time. And you will come among us again? Say_ypuwill." "Mayhap, my\child; but not yet. When I am string enough." "We'll soon make you strong, Tom and4 I. You must thank Tom. He bulit-'tb'ls ftfaee; nnd""fie has treen-w*^ Pearl in the txrtdetr of.^tfeem,holding a me every day. We have all been so eorr> for you. You haven't any more wieked thoughts, have you?" "Let me think, dear child. Things f.re not clear-to" me yet." I strove to recall what had taken place, and gradually during my convalescence my memory returned, and with It the dark, morbid thoughts that had been* almost fatal to me. I battled hard against them. I knew my danger, and knew aleo that I was not strong enough, unaided, to gain the victory. I looked about ferr help, and I fottnd It at my side in the pure spirit of a child. Pearl saved me from myself. She nursed me with such gentleness and tender love1, that my heart would have been; stone indeed had It resisted her sweet-influence. She must hare had an instinct of my peril, for she left me only for an hour each day, and sheilepftieneath the oam'o roof. Understand me. I believed my wife to have been false to me; but she was dead, and, with better feelings stirring wtthln tee, I drfreti not lay her sin against all my kind. This was the result of no goodness in myself; I was ready enough to condemn, bet a child's pure heart and staple spirit had softened and chastened me. I had not yet seen any of my companions, with the exception of Pearl and Tom Wren. Words which I had repeatedly dropped in my delirium had been construed by my nurse into fixed determination not to meet them; and even now, notwithstanding my promise to Pearl, the reluctance to rejoin them was very strong. Pearl urged" *ae gently. "I want you to help me so much?" "Help you, dear child! In what wayf "I keep a school," she answered with a merry laugh. "Think of that! You remember when you gave the paper to Mr. Bowden he could not read, and none of the others 'could but you and me. Now some of them know- their letters quite nicely." I gazed In delight and amazement at her flushed, bright faee. • "How do you teach them, dear chUS^ - — — before me, dead and cold. A'grave was there, and by that I know ray mates muat have buried him. '*Let him rest," I thought, more in sorrow than in auger; "he can work no more mischief now." Then I turned to the place -where I had buried the geld. It had' not been disturbed, and I covered it again carefully, resolving that, if by God's mercy we were leecued, I would take as much of it for my own purposes as was properly my own. For the'rest, my mates should decide what Should be done17 with It. My next visit v;aa to my little Bob's grave, and I noted with grateful feelings hew carefully it bad been tended during my Bickness. The flowers blooming there were a better sermon than any that man could preach, and I blessed Pearl in my heart for her love and thoughituluess. These signs of love, no less than the sweet, pure air, refreshed and strengthened me, and I strolled through the woods again, thinking of Pearl and her school with affectionate curiosity. Soon I heard voices, and1 went toward tbem. Surely enough, there was the school, in a small clearing, surrounded by 'trees. My mates were there, and book. Concealing myself behind a tree, where I had a clear view of the scene, I listened to what was going on. Six of my mates were present, all of them deeply Interested In the proceedings, and with such expressions en their faces as denoted that a knotty point was being discussed. Tom Wren, to my surprise, looking somewhat rebellious, was seated on some stones which had been built up to form a seat, and Pearl was leaning over his shoulder. "Now, Tom," said Pearl, "I have told you a hundred, hundred times, and you're a bad boy. Here it is—A. A is the first letter. Mr. Bowden, please to say your alphabet." To my infinite amusement, Mr. Bowden, who could not have been less than sixty years of age, instantly stood up, and, in as awkward a manne¥ Jas any new school-boy could exhibit, went stumhllngly through the .alphabet. He made a few mistakes on the journey, and was gravely corrected by his mates, who themselves were more often wrong than right. "Yoli see, Tom," said Pearl, holding up a reproving finger, "they all know better than you. A is the first letter/ and O is In the middle." But obstinate Tom shook his head. "Stand up, sir!" cried Pearl. Tom stood up so readily and meekly, and the other men looked on so apprehensively, that it would not have surprised me had the fascinating little school-mi stress peremptorily desired him to hold out his hand to receive six for his contumacy. And Pearl really did have something in her hand that looked like a cane; but she made no use of It on this occasion. "Once more, Tom," said Pearl, as the bay boy of the school stood submissively, and yet with an air of dogged independence on him, before her, "what is the first letter of the alphabet?" . "O," said Tom, very decidedly. "A, sir. A," cried Pearl. "O, Queen Pearl, if you please." "Then I suppose," said Pearl, con > "I have only two books. On that dreadful night mother put them In an oll-skln bag round my neck: Here obey are." She placed the books in my nands. One was a torn primer, 'the other a child's 0097 of "Cinderella." < "Yo* were reading 'Cinderella' *o Tom.** I said. "Yes, Daddy Beecroft,** she replied. with another merry laugh; "and, do you know, he goes all about the forests Vacttm tor—pumpkins' He says he vfllute fare to And soma, and that one ahall be turned into ship, and anothef Into money, and others into other tbiags-^all for me, Daddy.

"And the third?" "Ah, you've got that right, then.

He held out "Cinderella." 'Which is, the beet book of the two. and which is the book to go by? Who holds up his hand for 'Cinderella?'" Every hand was held up. "And who," continued Tom, proving" himself a rare logician, 'holds up his hand for the Primer, as Queen Pearl calls it?" Not a hand was raised. Tom chuckled. It wan evidently a matter which he had pondered over deeply. "Well, then," he said, "look at the first letter in 'Cinderella.' What la it? 0. And the next? N. \nd the next? C. And'the next? BJf There you are, then. O-n-c-e, once. '-Once upon a time' That's how It is. The man that wrote this Primer made a. mistake. And the man that wrote 'Chstterella' is the man to go by, and here's three cheers for him." Tom raised his voice lustily, and they all joined in. Even I. So that there was no mistake as to the success of the mutiny. But- they raised -a louder cheer when they heard my voice, and so discovered me; and P^arl herself, rejoiced to see me among my jnaen again, gave in to Tom, and declared that he was right; aflTT that O was the first letter in the alphabet. A few minutes afterward, when I had shaken hands all r^und. Pearl, seated between me and Tom Wren, read the pretty legend of "Cinderella" all through. And that also was a sermon as good as any ever preached in a church. And now I am warned that my story is in danger of being spun out to too great a length. So let the history of the next few years be told in almost as few lines. Indeed, one day was so like another, that a record of them would be but a repetition of things. Death came among us. One went; another followed; and another; and still another. Before iong, we counted the magic number, seven; and at this we mercifully remained. Our hair turned gray and white and we all thought that our bones would he_ burled in this island of the South Seas. We got resigned to this, and cared not for ourselves. Our only concern was for Pearl, our fairy, our queen Year by year she grew fairer and more beautiful and mo»-e beloved. She kept us In the right path. Her presence and sweet influence continually humanized us. James Bowden had kept a record of the days from the first, so that we knew when the Sabbaths were, and these, as well as Christmas, were religiously and lovingly observed. So Pearl grew into womanhood, and Tom Wren still searched for his pump-, kin, not finding it until one blessed day when our Island Queen was seventeen years of age. He came running toward us with the air of a wild man, and swore he had seen a ship. We raced to the hill where our signal-fire was still burning, and found that he was right It was a calm and beautiful day, and there lay the ship that was to restore us to the v/orld. It was long before we succeeded in making our signals seen; but when we did, and saw the boats putting off for ua, we fell upon our knees. Pearl nestled close to me, tenderly and anxiously. , ^You^-don't—forget yonr promise." she said, tearfully. "I have no one, daddy. I am alone in the world." "You are my child/' I said, as X folded her in my arms, "and you and I will never part X could net love » daughter of my own more dearly tfca* I love you," Long before this I had told my mates of the gold Mr. Druce had left behind him, and they had decided that half c* It was mine, and that the other half should be divided among those taint re- .!»•*•< PICKED UP ON BEO ADWAT. ss — — 1 a * / 0 ' < r-v.

Plow, up the old briar and weed covered fenae row and farm it for a year. Ten chances to one you don't need the fence anyway. Bye for soiling should be cut at least twice. But be sure to make the first cutting before the head appears. It is said the Germans cut it three or four times. Just as likely as not codling moths are in your cellar near tbe window, trying tq get out. Go see and if you find any kill 'em. Three-eights inches long: look for copper-colored spots near rear end of wince. Crimson clover loses much of its value as hay by cutting too , late. It is at its best when in full bloom and before ajo^jpfj^ejieads ~cfie7 The cutting should begin at this time, and the last load should be gathered before any of the seed is ripe enough to fall. Four gallons of white wash, two quarts of clay, two quarts of fresh cow droppings, three quarts of wood ashes; mix well an apply with an old broom to the stems and crotches of your peach, apple and quince and dwarf pear trees. This should be done at once as a precaution against borers. The wash should extend below the surf aceL of__ the gro_un4_a. couple of inches. If your trees have been planted and you did not.prune the tops, you made a great mistake. Go at Once and do it. Cut the peach trees off just above where budded near the ground: apples and peaches may have the entire head cut aff from two to four feet from the ground where you want the trees to head; or if you are afraid to do thai then cut out all feeble branches and shorten all others one-half. Do as we say please. Interesting Items. South Lyon tax-payers will be asked for only 1\ mills on the dollar or 25 cents on $100 valuation this year. ..

The poor worms would starve to death in this section. The legislature has passed a bill amending the dog tax law so that in the future the money collected on,Such tax,shall remain in the school district where collected instead of being turned into the general school fund.

Lands can be made profitable to raise this product when worth $75 jto $100 per acre whereas the same lands as now farmed at a loss at a valuation of $20 per acre.

And Solomon recorded in- the Bible, thousands of years before scientists discovered it, that in his time the spinal cord relaxed in old age, cMldren, young people, and !

So he eats hardly any bread, his favorite food being oranges, bananas and meat. Such enormous sums are being paid for houses and windows in London along the route of the royal precession on June 22 next, and so costly are the preparations made by the people of the metropolis for the celebration of'the sixtieth anniversary of the Queen's ascension to the throne that during the last three months 'her Majesty's life has been Insured to the tune of nearly $5,000,000 by shopkeepers, window broken, house agents and speculators, who ate anxious to protect themselves against loss in the possible event of the venerable sovereign's death before the date of the jubilee. By the last census it appears that the population of France is now 38,- 228,969, an increase in five years of only 133,819, and this mainly through Immigration. For several years past the death rate has exceeded the birth rate. These facts become still more significant when a comparison is made between France and her neighbors. Jn Germany the Increase of population during the last five years has been 2351.481, nearly 3,000,000, as against 134)000 in France. The contrast is still more striking when these figures are compared with those of the past. At the beginning of the century France outnumbered Prussia three to one. Today Prussia contains almoet an equal population, and at for the whole of Germany, there are five Germans every four Frenchmen. to A cablegram from London says: In consequence of the efforts of the government of Massachusetts, the American Antiquarian and Maaaachufeetts Historical societies, the Pilgrim Society frt Plymouth and the New England Society of New York, backed up by the desires of the archbishop of Canterbury and the bishop of London. the consistory court of the diocese of London assembled March 25 in the old chapel of St Paul's Cathedral in order to determine the question o£ the rein the text he reveals the fact that he had studied that largest gland of the human system, the liver, not by the electric light of the modern dissecting room, but by the dim light of a comparatively dark age, and yet had seen Its important functions in the Godbuilt castle of the human body, its selecting and secreting power, its curious cells, its elongated branching tubes, a Divine workmanship in central and right and left lobe, and the hepatic artery through which flow the crimson tides. Oh. this vital organ is like the eye of God in that it never sleeps. Solomon knew of it, and had noticed either in vivisection or post-mortem what awful attacks sin and dissipation make upon it, until the flat of Almighty God bids the body and soul separate, one it commends to the grave, and the other it sends to judgment. A javelin of retribution. Dot glancing off or making a slight wound, but piercing it from side to side "till a dart strike through his liver." Galen and Hippocrates ascribe to the liver the most of the world's moral depression, and the word melancholy means black bile. I preach to you the Gospel of Health. In taking a diagnosis of diseases of the soul you must also take a diagnosis of diseases of the body. As if to recognize this, one whole book of the New Testament was written by a physician. Luke was a medical doctor, and he discourses much of the physical conditions, and he tells of the good Samaritan's medication of the wounds by pouring in oil and wine, and recognizes hunger aa a hindrance to- hearing the Gospel, so that the five thousand were fed; he also records the sparse diet of the prodigal away from home, and the extinguished eyesight of the beggar by the wayside, and lets us know of the hemorrhage ef the wounds of the dying Christ and the miraculous post-mortem resuscitation. twenty, and 1 *m here;" pr U wtfl nq;, JjOfTJP HjL$4&&Ot> "Here Ja tht eonrequecca of sitting a tastl* ft*** and Ear—neatly half day w;th wqt feet;" or It wUl nan Cfcaanssao Bneus*mm ''Thlajsja^sre l ajfre stacked my it*- ^^^PSUBBltiJL.^ fast e1)(wftrp»ts;u0k instead *f worda,m, Ike ttfrne-qntter wfllXdnlnel for an epi- / __ ta>h on-trie t£mbe*plbtWQ figures— - - - ^ ^ vtnu«rw<»»ww abftn- [ n>wely, a dart and. a" Mver.

In his letter of the «*n*i! date, describing the same places a** a;march over the same road, the writer can scarcely find words to set /ortB the suffering, impatience and disgust existing around him. What was pleas-1 ant tb the /ormer waj intolerable to the litter. • What made-uH thia^dlfference? asks the author. -'One^nflltion on}y; the French £re vlatoiPtous. the Austrians have been defeated/!* So, my dear brother, the road you are traveling is the same you have been traveling a long while, but the difference in your physical conditions makes It look different, and therefore the two reports you have given of yourself are as widely different as the reports in the London Times from the two correspondents. Edward Payson, sometimes so far up on the Mpunt that it seemed as if the centripetal force of earth could no longer hold hira, sometimes through a physical disorder was so far down that it seemed as if the nether world would clutch him. Poor William Cowper was a most excellent Christian, and will be loved in the Christian church as long as It alngs his hymns beginning "There is a fountain ^llleeV w4th blood/* ' ^ v for a closer walk with God," "What various hindrances we meet," and "God moves In a mysterious way.'.' Yet was he so overcome of melancholy, or black bile, that it was only through the mistake of the cab driver who took him to a wrong place, instead of the river bank, that he did not commit suicide. Spiritual condition so mightily affected by the physical state, what a great opportunity this gives to the Christian physician, for he can feel at the same time both the pulse of the body and the pulse of the soul, and he can administer to both at once, and if medicine is needed he can give that, and if spiritual counsel is needed he can give that—an earthly and a Divine prescription at the same time— and call on not only the apothecary of earth, but the pharmacy of heaven! Ah, that is the kind of doctor I want at my bedside, one that cannot only count out the right number of drops, but who can also pray. That is the kind of .doctor T have had in my houje when s.ckness or death came. I do not want any of your profligate or atheistic doctors around my loved ones when the balances of life are trembling. A doctor who has gone through the medical college, and in dissecting room has traversed the wonders of the human mechanism, and found no God in any of the labyrinths, is a fool, and cannot doctor me or mine. But, oh, the Christian doctors! What a comfort they have been in many of our households! And they ought to have a warm place in our prayers as well as praise on our tongues. My object at this point is not only to emoliate the criticisms of those in good health against those in poor health, but to show Christian people who are atrabilious what is the matter with them.

I have seen an old missionary worn out with the malaria of African jungjes, who looked to me more radiant than a rubicund gymnast. I have seen a mother after six weeks' watching over a family of children down with scarlet fever, with a glory around her pale and wan face that surpassed the angelic. It all depends on how you got your sickness and in what battle your wounds. If we must get sick and worn out, let It be in God's service and in th'o effort to make the world good. Not in the service of sin. No! No! One of the most pathetic scenes that I ever witness, und I often see it, is that of men or women cjnverted ln>.the fifties or sixties or seventies wanting to be useful, but they so served the world and Satan in the earlier part of tljeir life that they have no physical energy left for the service of God. They sacrificed ' nerves, muscles, lungs, heart and liver on the wrong altar; They fought on the WTOng-"BtdB, antmow, when their sword^Ja^Jl hacked up and their ammunition all gone, they enlist for Emmanuel. When the high-mettled cavalry horse, which that man spurred into many a cavalry charge with champing bit and flaming eye and neck clothed with thunder, Js.worn out and spavined and ring-boned and spring-halt, he rides up to the great Captain of our Salvation on the white horse and offers his services. With such persons might have been, through the good habits of a lifetime, crashing their battle-ax through the helmeted iniquities, they are spending their days and nights in discussing the best way of curing their indigestion, and quieting their jangled nerves,1 and rousing their laggard appetite, and trying to extract the dart from their outraged liv,er. Better cflfeverted late than never! Oh, yes; for they will get %o heaven. But they wtlKkS afoot when they might have wneeled up the steed hills of the sky in Elijah's chariot. There is an old hymn that we used to sing in the country meeting house when I was a boy, and I remember how the old folks' votjss "frembled with emotion while they sang/it I have forgotten all but two lines, but those lines are the peroration of my sermon: ' / 'Twill save us from a thousand snares To mind religion young. 1 1 ' ' / 'I . Don't Eat Unl*M Ton Are Hanffry. There Is a good old maxim which runs as followsy \"in time of peace prepare for war," and this is a* true in connection with, the question of diet in health as in other things. Too many people assume that because they enjoy fairly good health, no improvement heed be effected in their diet, but that this position is eminently untenable none who carefully consider the subs-' /ject will deny. Those whose practice brings them into contact with the wealthier classes have frequently an opportunity of estimating the bad effects of improper diet.

A tattered flag across it drooped, All stained with battle smoke, While hillside echoes woke. Then groups about the village street Told o'er and o'er the story Of hot pursuit, of triumph gained. And homeward march of glory; And left, at last, the silent gun Beside the meadow lying, To tell the story for itself, All other tales denying. As time went on, the song grew old. And timid grasses growing, Waved fearlessly across its mouth When summer winds were blowing; Gay little birds within its bore Crept out of stormy weather, - To lay the seeds they gathered down, While pluming crest and feather. ^f?

These were the messages that were flashed over the wires and sent to the waiting ones at home by brave and thoughtful comrades. Those who lived through those trying times need not be reminded how sacred la the trust committed to our charge.

Cabinet Crisis Feared In Hpalu. A heated debate in the Spanish senate at Madrid was followed by exulting tflsoussious iu the lobbies at the elose of the session, and a dispute occurred between the duke of Tetuan, minister of foreign affairs, and Senor Comas, a Liberal senator, which ended in the duke boxing the senator's ears. The minister of foreign affairs at once resigned and the Liberal minority decided that it would attend no more sessions of the senate until the duke had made ample apology to Senator Comas and to the Liberal party. Later the duke and Comas selected seconds preparatory to fighting a duel but the seconds decided that as the aggressions were reciprocal a duel was not neesssary. The Spanish premier, Senor Canovas del Castillo refused to accept the resignation of the duke of Tetuan because, he said, the government could not dispense with his services as. minister of foreign affairs, as he aione was acquainted with and able to conduct important and delicate pending negotiations with foreign governments (meaning the United States). The Liberals now absent themselves from the sessions of both branches of the cortes, and many of them predict that Premier Canovas will be thrown from power in a short time. Political passions are thoroughly excited and it is thought a ministeral crisis will result. The case will be carried to the supreme court The books of ex-City Clerk Fred J. McMutrie, of Three Rivers, have been examined by experts and a shortage was found of 91,337.17, which McMutrie refunded. He says he will make good any further shortage which may be discovered. The supreme court has decided that the selling of adulterated foods or drinks, is a violation of the pure food laws whether the dealer knew the article sold was adulterated or not. This will greatly aid the state food commissioner/ Neater Frovancher, of Menominee, was experimented upon by a hypnotist recently, and soon after was seized with a dangerous fever, and when he recovered he had almost lost his voice and had been able to speak only in a whisper ever since. A system of test holes was sunk in various parts of Bay county in search of coal deposits and the results prove that an immense bed of coal of excellent quality lies under all the land about Bay City, It looks now as if that city was to enjoy a boom from the discovery of such, immense coal fields. Cuban Inaurgente Win Another Victory. Apparent!}' reliable news of the most important insurgent success iu months has just reached Havana. Gen. Calixto Garcia and (.Jen. Habi fell on a Spanish force which was carrying food and supplies from Manzanillo to Bayamo, captured the convoy, routed Gen. Lono's columns and pursued him so vigorously that he fled to the coast with the remnant of his brigade, and took a ship at Cabocoruz for Manzaniilo. This engagement, which is regarded by Cubans at Havana as. more important than any battle_ since Carcariiicara, goes to show how hapless the Spanish are in the country east of the trocha, which is well called Cuba Libre.

Spanish Fire on a BrltUh VeeseL After being twice chased by Spanish gunboats and passing through a perfect storm of shot, which splashed in the water across the vessel's bows, the British fruit steamer Ethelred arrived Et Philadephia after a five days run from Port Antonio, Jamaica. The Ethelred was chased on both the outgoing and inbound trips while just off Cape Masisi by a Spanish gunboat, notwithstanding the fact that the British flag was raised.

The colonel says in this connection that unless the people elect representatives who represent them instead of the railroads the people deserve to be oppressed. He chargea that the act Bpeech of Senator Thompson was prepared for him by the pailrpad companies, and characterizes much of the speech as fiction and a barefaced attempt to prevert facts. The House in coirfmittee of the whole agreed to an excise bill, by which it is hoped to raise 9320,()00 per year by a tax of oue cent per gallon on all beer, ale and porter manufactured or imported into the state. The bill creates 33 new officers, to be known as excise, inspectors, with a salary of 9i*000 per year. The House passed the following bills: For better protection against fraud in primary elections; appropriating f29,- 1)00 for the Central -Michigan normal school at Mt. Pleasant; providing for the appraisal of property sold under foreclosure sale and to prohibit sale for less than two-thirds of appraised values; increasing the number of stockholders allowed military companies and authorising them to rent their armories; providing for a similarity of studies in Michigan normal schools; allowing building and loan association to create a reserve fund. The Senate passed the uniform text book bill with only one negative vote—Campbell. The bill will not go into effect until 1899, and between now and then the school districts must vote whether they will adopt the free text book or the uniform text book system. Other bills passed by the Senate: Prescribing an agricultural course for country schools; to prohibit paying labor in store orders or other script not legal tender; for a lien upon horses and other animals for the cost of shoeing same; appropriating 923,000 fbr improvements at the agricultural college, including an electric lighting plant; appropriating 964,767 for the state public school. The beginning of the closing week of the Icgislalivij aession did not sho\y any great desire on- the part of the legislators to push matters through. The Senate held a short session in committee of the whole where the inheritance tax bill was sent away to its last slumber; the bill was killed to provide for maintenance of minor children when divorce is granted the parents; and the House cut in the mining school appropriation was non-concurred in. The Senate passed the following bills: Requiring township boards to publish annually an itemized statement of township finances; fixing the per diem of members of the railroad crossing board at 95; permitting the annual meeting of stockholders of Michigan railroads to be held anywhere in the state: repealing obsolete laws; repealing the law for the collection of cereal statistics; taxing the gross Michigan earnings of express companies 3 per cent. The Seuate knocked out the bill permitting the townships between Lansing and St. Johns to grant electric railway franchises. Senator Thompson was responsible for its defeat. The House session was a little more lively and the following bills were passed: Making the offense of attempting to wreck or rob railroad trains a felony; for the incorporation of sooic- Jq^t m iiknnhnnt nf t.hn HfliUfi Tfftad to adopt the conference committee report on the Merriam railroad specific bill and only o n e - R e p .

The committee of the whole agreed to the anti-trust bill which provides a penalty for all persons entering Uito agreements which tend to lessen free competition in the importation or sale of articles in the state, or which tend to advance the rates or control the priee of any such articles to the producer or consumer. The bill provides tbafuopropeTtJy ahall be exempt from execution under the terms of the law, find declares void'any co-partnership unless affidavit is made every year to to the secretary of state that the partnership is formed to do businese under the provisions of the bilL It also exclndes from the state all foreign oorporations that do not do business under the terms of the measure.

The anti-trust bill waa killed, owing to Rep. Adams, who contended that the bill was a dangerous one. Tlie House also passed the following: Increasing the- franchise fee of corporations from H to 1¾ mills on the dollar, and making the minimum fee 920 instead of 95; appropriating 912,000 for the state factory inspectors, an increase of 94,000 over old appropriation; preventing appeals from justice courts in cases 'involving less than 925. The House concurred in the Senate amendments to tbe Graham uniform text book bill, and all it needs now is the signature of the governor to make It a law. The Senate passed the following bills: Providing half-pay pension for disabled and retired Detroit police, providing it never exceeds #50 per month; amending the divorce law so as to protect the interests of minor children; providing that the reserve funds of mutual and co-operative benefit associations shall" be deposited in the state treasury; changing the time for the sale of delinquent tax lands from December to May. Senator Bfckestee's hanging bill was favorably reported by the Senate committee on state affairs. Gov. Pingree again "stirred up the animals" by sending a message to both the House and the Senate_calling attention to the numerous bills of greatest important which are being allowed to-die in each of the—houses' without any effort being made to act upon them. He also objected to the passing of large appropriation bills which were not brought in until within a few days of tbe time set for adjournment, thus preventing proper and intelligent investigation of them. The governor, therefore, asked that the session be extended at least two weeks that the bills mentioned might be disposed of and the appropriations investigated. Wheu the message was received the Senate and ' House each had a bitter fight over i t The House passed a resolution making the day of adjournment June 14. The Senate refused to concur. The House then appointed a conference committee. The special investigation committee on the soldiers1 home -reported to the Senate, condemning the managenient as extravagant Then, upon the report being adopted, the Senate passed the Jibb bill providing that no member of the board nf control of the soldiers1 home ahall be eligible to reappointment or to hold the office of commandant or secretary of the board for a period of two years after the expiration of their term of office. The Robinson bill, for a threeoent passenger fare in the -upper pen-— Insula, was killed in the Senate by a vote of 19 to 12. The Adams general insolvency bill has been hung up in the Senate. The following bills hare passed the Senate: Raising the price of license for hunting deer from 50 t o 76 cents—50 cento of the license to g o to the state; for the garnishment of municipalities authorizing township boards to establish a cloned season on forest and prairie firea, .during which fires cannot be aet without 24 hours' notification to neighbors;, for the branding of. inaibatiopft'of. deather; restricting the printing of state documents to 910,000 annually; providing tbat husband and wife may -testify against one another in enseVof bigamy; providing that constitutional amendments be printed on separjate, ba^lota; requiring? notice to be given to recover damages on account of death and" personal injuries} to have trespass agen to adjust and ooliect all trespasses i <eommitted'onatatwtax laud*; t o incorporate societies for Kfae seudy of literature; appropriating 95,000^for the ejection pf a physician;* residence and dining hall and 423,000 for n hospital buildiug at the Kalamaxoo aaylum, $59,700 tar the Newberry .aeyium, and 92,000 for the promotion ci\ horttcjuV ing bill waa lost in the Sennt* b y one vote; but waa reconsidered and tnoleut The House had a fight Ineting nearly three hours over the fish oomtniastoA approjirkitkxi, a * * * " a * fnptn W*WMMG>4!*I, aid _ auej*«*. .»^«M*Q«FutU f f i r a A * ii*w*,aikaeJ* *< .*Sr " yp«i ' • • Meau-Yenr^ LaboF 4 a * , Houetv T4e ttonue p » a * i the fUhWsT ttr £ •V ',>*' i^v':'- } V ) / • • * , W^nJrTiHni^naaioi f '••', " i s HI I I I I W P P ^ P P I I • i i .

'WAS only a fragment of their story* but the great event* of life aU e o n e s to us In fragments. His name was Jason. Rachel wan his daughter. He was not a man of prepossessing . appearance. His coat - was rough and heavy and. reached almost to his feet. He wore a black slouch hat which waa bound down over the ears and converted into a shape resembling an oldfashioned poke bonnet by a red woolen nubia which was wound round his head and tied under his chin. He had a bushy, red beard, deep sunken blue eyes and heavy red eyebrows. The little girl was dark and thin and wiry. Her garb was a symphony in quakeriah gray. There was a gray hood with a three Inch frill that stood out around her eager face like a semicircular fortification, a gray cloak, gray mittens, gray stockings and gray cloth overshoes. She sat very close beside the man, and every little while she .looked up at those portions of his face that were visible through the nubia, the bat and the coat collar, and laid her little hand on his and stroked it affectionately. They did not speak for several minutes. Silence, with the exception of the rat-a-tat-tat of frozen shoes against the cold, wet floor of the car, seemed to be the rule against which none but the conductor dared infringe as he now and then called out the names of the intersecting streets. At length the man remdved one of his gloves, unbuttoned his coat and took from the inside pocket a letter which was creased and soiled from being read and re-folded many times. "What time did she say she would be here?" he asked, as he handed the letter to the little girl. "Look again, Rachel." "At half-past 4," she said, after having applied herself to the written sheet for a minute or two. "Are you .sure? I wish you'd read that part aloud again, my dear. I don't want to make any mistake." " T w i l l be at Polk street depot at 4:30 Saturday afternoon,'" she read in a shrill, sharp voice, that trembled with the excitement she had tried In vain to repress. "It must be_nearly that time now, ain't it?" he asked, Thxiously. The little girl turned round and looked at the dial of a large clock that had been placed in the window of a drug store they were passing then. "No," she said, "it's only 8. We've got lots of time." She gave him the letter again, but he did not put lt back in his pocket There was another short silence. Presently he leaned toward her and said In a subdued voice, that was evidently meant for her ear alone: "Read It through, won't you, Rachel? I can't hardly believe it. It seems too good to be true. Sometimes I think I must be dreamln'. Let me hear again what she says, my dear." The little girl looked round the crowded car half fearfully as though *"•T una SKC5 t v -i; - 1 sa- 3 = " 'lQr.lifa, since leaving you, has been one continual season of-anfferini < Rev morse for the grief I hsrtw oanntn gste ZfSZ All those creeping, crawling, stinging sensations that combine to make up the tortures of any itching disease of the skin are instantly relieved and permanently cared by Doan's Ointment.

His hand rested over his eyes for some time after the conclusion of the letter. "It must be half-past 4 now, ain't it?" he asked, at length. , "No, It's only a little past 3. Father," and her dark eyes gntw very wistful, "tell me all about it once more, won't you, before we see her? We'll never say anything about it after that, will we, father?" The car dragged slowly along. The cold grew more intense. The passengers were dividing their time between reviling the weather, the conductor and the street car company, and listening to the only conversation that enlivened the downtown trip. But all discomforts and annoyances were unheeded by the man in the rough coat and tho little girl in gray, for whom the world held nothing that afternoon except themselves and the woman who was to come in at the Polk street depot at half-past 4. "It's been ten years aince I saw *er." he said. "You was a little teenty thing then, only a year old. She went away one night, Feb. 17 it was. I remember that Just as well as anything. She left me because I didn't know much: because I was ign'r'nt—that was what she told the neighbors—an' I know it was so, because she had often said the same thing to me. I couldn't write nor even read, an' she ought to have knowed better'n to marry me, she said. I was good to her an' kind an' tried to make up for it in other ways, but she couldn't stand my lgn'r'nce any longer—that was what she told the neighbors— a M* I guess It's about right. An' I d o c t know's I blame^er much. The neighbors did, but I never said anything about l t It must be pretty hard for a bright, well-read woman to be tied to an ugly old man like me. The only thing I ever blamed 'er for was for leavln' you, beln' 's you was such a teenty thing. But I brought you up alone the best I could. I ain't done bad by you, have I, Rachel?" The little girl was crying softly, and her only answer was to press his hand, which Bhe held In both her own. *M never -heard from ! er -after-ihaL.. They went south—her an' the music teacher who boarded next door—at least, that's what the neighbors said. About six years ago the blacksmith on tbe corner run across 'em one day down in Florida. But I knowed she'd come back. I felt it in my bones. The day after she went away I commenced to get ready for 'er. I made up my mind she should find things improved when she come back. I couldn't make much change in myself—it's hard work to teach an old dog new tricks, you know —so I turned my whole attention, to you. I've tried to bring you up so she wouldn't be ashamed of you when she got back. And she won't be. Anybody'd be proud of you, Rachel. You know a good deal, don't you, my dear? You know readin' an' writln' an' hisf r y an' geography, don't you, Rachel?" "And algebra," supplemented the little girl. "Yes, and algebry. An' you c'n play an' sing, too. can't you, Rachel?"

The Stockbridge Sun has just passed its thirteenth year, b u t as Bro. Gildart is not superstitious there is 110 doubt but what the Sun will survive. Canada has barred out Oorbett a»d Fitzsimmons as reproduced in the kinetoscope. Canada evidently believes in the duty of a government to conserve the morals of the people.—Ex. The Jackson County Mnccabee Association will hold its third annual grand jubilee and basket picnic in Jackson on Saturday J u n e 12, and have invited all t h e tents and hives within a' radius of 50 or 60 miles to join with them. Does t h e farmer ever think when he goes to the field to work and takes his j u g of water that the team are liable to become as thirsty as himself? Fix u p a half barrel with a cover and take it to the field, and now and then when you take a drink yourself, give the horses a few swallows. If they are warm allow them a very little at a time. I t will refresh them wonderfully and will pay you for the trouble.—Ex. J. Herbert Holmes, who killed motorman Johnson at Grand Rapids, and who was set free after two trial's, by the payment of a *1,UUU hiio, has £00ml a good ^65 as bookkeeper for the Trask Manufacturing Co., at Jackson.—Enterprise. Well, perhaps their heads will be safe while it is warm weather, b u t they must look out when their fingers are cold, and not go near J . Herbert. The other day a couple of men who said they were canvassing for a preparation for oiling floors so that no dust would settle on them, struck Cassopolis. They showed samples of the work and secured orders from two merchants for seveu gallons of their solution at *1.25 per gallon. They went to another store, purchased seven gallons of a cheap oiling solution at twenty-five cents a gallon and with this stuff filled their orders clearing 17 by a few minutes of the easiest kind of worl^ When the deception was discovered th<j swindlers had left town. Are We Degenerating We olip the following from "Our Dumb Animals" which shows to what depths of brutality many of our citizens are going: "Last summer or fall thousands of Cleveland people attended a great public exhibition of butchering for prizes offered to butchers who could, in a given time, butcher and dress the greatest number of animals. On an elevated platform covered with blood, in sight of the thousands of spectators, t h e animals were butchered and dressed. With such pleasant entertainments for all ages of its citizens and such instructions for the children in its gpblic schools we should think [unless there is some interference by "Bands of Mercy" or otherwise] that Cleveland may in time become a most desirable residence for certain classes of American citizens, and possibly in one, of its largest public squares may one of these days be erected a French guillotine to chop off the heads of prominent men and women for special amusement on public occasions and perhaps un-1 del the influence of these'scientific' teachings, now being so widely introduced into our institutions of learning [if not interfered with by humane education and "Bands of Mercy"] a similar form of amusement may be adopted in other American cities." Hundreds of thousands have been iuduced to try Chamberlain's Coutfh Keinedy, by reading what it has done for o'hers!. and having tested its merit for themselves are today its warmest friends.

About 11 o'clock he visited the United Htutes Marshall's office, where, according to those present, he was "greeted •btfarjily" by Marshall Wilson. The latter called a carriage and took the contumacious broker to the jail, where the cell which he was to occupy was inspected. The marshall spoke highly of Chapman and Chapman patted him on the back. When . Chapman entered the jail a prisoner he found himself in the very lap of luxury. He has a colored servant from the Arlington Hotel to serve his meals. And, strangest of all, the warden has provided him with an adjoining cell, where a desk is to be come to a different conclusion. A young man can, lepst of all, profane good taste in dress, no matter how geueral a foolish fad- may become. He is always being judged by some one older than himself and many a business man judges a young man character by his dress. The. colored shirt of violent color or desigh is not the young man's friend;- it is his enemy. He does not impress people with his good taste by wearing it; on the contrary, he shows the weakness in his character of a tendency to unwise imitatiou.

Thefe is a happy medium between a black tie and the violent cravat of rainbow hue. That is where good taste comes in and a young man must exercise it. The cblered shirt is "possible for him, but within limitations. The pin dot or stripe is not offensive; on the contrary.it is becoming. But brilliant cravats, fancy waist-coats loud and large 'checks' in clothes and extreme colors iu shirts are not for the young man of taste, refinement or of future standing.

While a similar appearance may be caused by plant lice, the true curl-leaf is due to a parasitic fungus, which generally appears soon after the leaves open, and which is most troublesome when the weather is wet and cold.

The Queen of the Netherlands, who is only sixteen years of age, is reported to have said: "I should like very mu<ch, my dear minister, a new series of stamps which will show me to my people just as I am at present." Her own face doeB not - - - ,. , appear in her large collection, T n c or bays, and secure him a policy of engraving on official papers will not be changed* it is said, until her marriage.

There could be no objection, however, to a provision that the enactments of the Connect cut legislature and of the legislatures of all the other states should be translated Into good and unmistakable English. An Interesting dietary experiment is being made In the woman's department of the University of Chicago. The women who served with food similar to that served to men's athletic teams when in regular training. AH the food is carefully weighed and analyzed before it is served, and the viands arranged according to their relative value as muscle strengthened. Each girl must eat the precise amount of fat and of albumen each day, which has been found by careful study to be needed by the human system, and eating too much is an evil which is especially guarded against. * The following definition of a bucket shop Is given: An establishment ann-_ ducted nominally and ostensibly for the transaction of a grain or stock exchange business, but the proprietor ~TaSe8~one slde~of every deal that made in his place, while the patron takes the other side—no article being bought or sold in any public market. The margins deposited with the "bucket, shop" proprietor by the patron, are nothing but the patron's stakes to the wager and are appropriated by the proprietor when the fluctuations of price reach the limit of the deposit—-one part y (the proprietor) to the bet acting as stakeholder. The riiimUiisseUins charged by the "bucket-shop" are odds in ^8 favor, and necessary in order to maintain the pretense of being legitimate brokers actually making the transaction on a public exchange. The "bucket shop" proprietor is ready to take all deals ottered om any commodity that fluctuates in price, he may call himself a commission aemhcaU or disguise We business under the form of * osrporation enterprise, or exchange, but he Is still a oomsnon gasafeier. The interest of a proprietor of a "bucket ahop" is at all times opposed to that of his patrons, as the profits of the shop ens measured by the loss of the petrosal "'Backet shops" are ™*A~WT* a s criminal and pernicious by statute i n almost every state ia the union. They should not be confounded with the great public markets of the world, whefre htsjel' Mil teller, producer and Hfe insurance, so that the present home may be well maintained after he Is dead. The most persistent, most overpowering enemy of the working classes Is intoxicating liquor. It is the anarchist of the .centuries, and has boycotted, and is now boycotting, the body and mind and soul of American labor. It is to It a worBe foe than monopoly and worse than associated cipital. It annually swindles industry out of a large percentage of Its earnings. It holds out Its blasting solicitations to the mechanic or operative on his way to work, and at the noon spell, and on his way home at eventide; on Saturday, when the wages are paid, it snatches a large part of the money that might come into the family, and sacrifices it among the saloonkeepers. Stand the saloons of this country side by side, and it is carefully estimated that they would reach from New York to Chicago. "Forward, march," says the drink power, "and take possession of the American nation!" The drink business is pouring its vitriolic and damnable liquids down the throats of hundreds of thousands of laborers, and while the ordinary strikes are ruinous both to employers and employes, I proclaim a strike universal against strong drink, which, if kept up. will be the relief of the working classes and the salvation of the nation. I will undertake to say that there Is not a healthy laborer In the United States who, within the next ten years, if he will refuse all intoxjcatlng beverage and be saving, may Hot become a capitalist on a sinair scale. Our country in a year spends one billion five hundred million and y~thousand dollars for drTnkT"TJf course the working classes do a great deal of this expenditure. Careful statistics show that the wage-earning classes of Great Britain expend in liquors one hundred million pounds, or five hundred million dollars a year. Sit down and calculate, O working man! how much you have expended in these directions. Add it all up. Add up what your neighbors have expended, and realise that instead of answering the beck of other people you might have been your own capitalist. When you deplete a working man's physical energy yon deplete his capital, t h e stimulated workman, gives out before the unstimulated workman. sfy father said: "I became a temperance men in early life; because I no- * * * * * * t h e sHsrrest «*td tnw*r*hough 4i-e*ns atyeteatty weaker than other alette**,-I eojsM hold-out losspsr• thas> thejr^ They took stimulants.

When they are preparing for a regatta, or for a ball club, or for an athletic wrestling, they abstain. Our working people will be wiser after awhile, and the money they fling away on hurtful Indulgences they will put, Into co-operative association, and so become capitalists. If the working man put down his wages and then take his expenses and spread them out so they will just equal, ue is not wise. I know working men who' are In a perfect fidget until they; get pld of their last dollar. - • The-following clrcumatauces came under our observation: A young man worked hard to earn his six or seven hundred dollars yearly. Marriage day came. The bride had inherited five hundred dollars from her grandfather. She spent every dollar of It on the wedding dress, Then they rented two rooms in the third story. Then the young man took extra evening employment. It almost extinguished his eyesight. Why did he add evening employment to the day employment? To get money. Why did he want to get money? To lay up something for a rainy day? No. To get hlB life insured, so that In case of his death hta wife would not be a beggar? No. Ho put the extra evening work toThe day work that he might get a hundred and fifty dollars to get his wife a sealskin coat. The sister of the bride heard of this achievement, and was not to be eclipsed. She was very poor, and she sat up working nearly all tne night for a great while until she bought a sealskin coat. I have not heard of the result on that street. The street was full of those who are on small IncDmc.^ but I suppose the contagion spread, and that everybody had a sealskin coat, and that the people came out and cried, practically, not literally: "Though the heavens fall, we must have a sealskin coat!" I was out west, and a minister of the Gospel told me, In Iowa, that his church and neighborhood had been impoverished by the fact that they put mortgages on their farms in order to send their families to the Philadelphia Centennial^ Itjivas^o^resjjeclahlfi not to go to the Centennial. Between such evils and pauperism there is a very short step. The vast majority of chil* dren In your alms houses are there because their parents are drunken, lazy, or recklessly improvident. I have no sympathy for skinflint saving, but I plead for Christian prudence. You say it Is impossible now to lay up anything for a rainy day. I know it, but we are at the daybreak of national prosperity. Some people think it is mean to turn the gas low when they go out of the parlor. They feel embarrassed if the door bell rings before they have the hall lighted. They apologize for the plain-meal, if you surprise them at the table. Well, it is mean if it is only to pile up a miserly hoard. But if it be to educate your children, if it be to giyjMiiore help to your wife when she does not feel strong, if It be to keep your funeral day from being horrible beyond all endurance, because it is to be the disruption and annihilation of the domestic circle—if it be for that, then it i s magnificent. jageous vhln«*'««rrTf1^XtT«m:3rdJl^H:| drink In any pthe; way, he would sell m**y aos*fe have) bean broken ep^tt^ that way n p o n e buVi)»V know*, 0**} is there anything ~tnat wllf sol destroy > a saa^ fop this life, a n o ^ a m n l*MM«!r the life that ie to oomeT "Do not tel) me thatJMgjAjfc cab $ e happy when he The aria fruit plants J bv Noah when he .theslthy tarouga r lflett* ater uugar subice whatever, but. has hi* wine fully urfd byfrekt aft: and careful handling, Texati ha* a uinalc yatch. of live acres that contains nickel, Kola, stiver, lead and tin, besides a large variety of very rare metals.

I was in a room in New Y o r k where thero were many men who had been re-[aimed from drunkenness. I heard their testimony, and for the first time In my life there flashed out a truth I never understood. They said, "We were victims of strong drink. We tfled to give it up; but always" failed^ but! somehow since we gave our hearts to Christ, he has taken care of us." I believe^ that the time will' soon como when the grace of God will show its power not only to save man's soul, but his body, and reconstruct, purify, elevate and redeem It. 1 verily believe that, although you feel grappling at the roots of your tongue^an almost omnipotent thirstj it-- you will give your heart to God He will help you by His grace to conquer. Try it. It is your last chance. I have looked off upon the desolation. Sitting next to you in our religious assemblages there are a good many people in awful peril; and, Judging from ordinary circumstances, there is not one chance in five thousand that they will get clear of It. There are men in every congregation from Sabbath to Sabbath of whom I must make the remark, that if they do not change their course, withm ten years they will, as to their bodies, lie down in drunkards' gravW; and as to their souls, lie down in a drunkard's perdition. I know that Is an awful thing to say, but I cannot help saying it. Oh. beware! You have not yet been captured.' Beware! Whether the beverage be poured in golden chalice or pewter mug, in the foam at the top, in white letters, let there be spelled out to your soul, "Beware!" When the books of judgment are Opened, and ten million drunkards come up to get their -doon^ I want you to boar wltnooa th I, in the fear of God and in the love for your soul, told you, with all affecttarnraid with all kindness", to beware of that which has already exerted its influence upon your family, blowing out some of its lights—a premonition of the blackness of darkness for ever. Oh, if you could only hear intemperance with drunkards' bones drumming on the head of the liquor cask the Dead March of immortal souls, methinks the very glance of a wine cup would make yon shudder, and the col' or of liquor would make you think of the blood of the soul, and the foam on the top of the cup would remind you of the froth on the maniacs lips; and yon would kneel down and pray God that, rather than your children should become captives of this evil habit, you would like to carry them out some bright spring day to the cemetery, and p«t them away to the last steep, until at the call of the south wind the flowers would cosse up all over the grave —swae* prapbecies of the resurrection! God has a balm for such a wound; but what flower of comfort ever on a drunkard's sepulchre?

It wan abput the second. weak in November, and Peart and I were atone. t stood In alienee for a few moments outside the dotks, to draw what seemed to me to be the breath of freedom. Al! our companions had gone their several wayti to see relatives and friends who had believed 'hem to ^be dead. Even Tom Wren had left us. He had two sisters In Devon, to whom it was right be should go without delay; but It was only by strong per- • suasion .that he was induced to lejave his fairy Fearl, and It'was urmnged .that he should come to us at Christmas, wherever we might happen to be. "And thjs js London!" said' Pearl, gazing about her In wonder. "Mother uspd often to speak of it. Daddy, I Shouldn't like to be left here alone. " It's very large, Isn't tt? And To think that, of all the people In It, you are the only friend I have!" The fair young creature "lung to my arm wistfully and fondly, __ "You are not the only one, dear child," said I. "When I was here last, my old mother was alive. I doubt, alaB! if she be alive now. If she is gone, I also shall be without a friend but my _ little Pearl. Well, dear child, we will rub along together, you and I. You have no father or mother of your own, and I have no yife and child." .. "Am I not'/our AlldV^aakedVfarl, softly. k"Neye> say that again, riaddy - BeecrofltL I win be a good child to you; and what-father have I but you, my dear? You are not tired of me, are you? We are going to live heee aH our lives, you say. Say, 'Welcome to our honj$, dear daughter.' "' I said the words, and kissed her in the streetsr-I didn't mind the people looking. Tney would have liked to have been la my place, I do not doubt. But there was no time to lose. There were certain things tobe seento, withoutdelay. The first was, to inquire after my mother. Away, then, we rattled to Brixton. I directed the driver to stop wMJhin half a mile of the place, wishing to walk thither, as I used to do In the old days. What varied emotions agitated me ' as Pearl and I walked toward the familiar spot where the sign $f "Beecroft, Mariner," used to stand! My little girl saw that I was agitated, and did not disturb the current of my thoughts, except by a fond and sympathising pressure of the arm. Great changes had taken place. New streets had bean formed; new houses had been built; old landmarks bad disappeared. But' when I turned the lane in which our eaftfege used to stand, I taw with delight thai ty was •till there; aid as surely as I lived, the fondly remembered device of "Beecroft, Mariner," was over the parlor window. I paused a while. "I have two strong wishes, my dear," f I said. "Yea, daddy," said she. "The first is, to find my , dear oM mother «tlve. The second Is,-that we may he able to live in that cotUg&T "Why daddy," ehe aald, "your Is over it! is it yours, then?"

She had left the neighborhood when she was turned out of the bouse, and had not been seen in it since. Upon further In* quiry, I ascertained that there would be no difficulty in obtaining possession of the cottage, providing I was willing to pay a certain sum of money to her husband. To be brief, I concluded the arrangement the samo day, and the next morning I took possession by consent of the landlord, of whom I purchased the furniture at a price satisfactory, I am sure, to him, and quite as satisfactory to me. Had he asked me double the sum he named, I would have given It willingly. So there I was once more In the old house at home. To have obtained one of my wishes thus easily was an omen of good luck. "You aro mistress here, my dear child," I said to Pearl; and I explained to her how everything used to be arranged in the old times,- and-what pride we took in the shells which my father and I had brought home. She listened attentively, as though she was learning a lesson, and after giving me a dozen kisses, became excitedly and delightfully busy. I told her to engage a girl to assist her in the cottage, and upon her saying she did not want one, I replied that it was necessary, as i should be a great deal away from home for a few days. "I"must find my mother, Pearl," I said. "I must not lose an hour." But my inquiries appeared likely to lead to no satisfactory result, until an old man told me that X might learn something if I could find the address of a woman who had lived in the neighborhood for a few weeks some eight or nine years ago, he thought, and who got her living by her needle. "Or tried to get her living, I should say," he added in correction, "and didn't succeed. Leastways, no one abdut here would employ her, and she was out of favor with everybody." "For-what reason?" I-inquiredr — "You had better ask the woman," said the man; "I'm not good at tittletattUng." . I did not follow his advice, having had enough in my time of gossiping women's tongues. I did a more sensible thing. I went at once to a private detective, and placed the matter In his hands, promising to reward him liberally if he succe^led. Of my mother I gave full particulars; of the woman who would be likely to give Information of her I could supply him Only with the slight clue which I had gained from the old man. "Leave it to me," said he; "I'll find one or. both in three days, if they're to be found at all." I had no doubt but that this was a boast; yet, for once a boaster's word was good. He came to me on the night of the third day. Pearl and I were sitting in the little parlor at Brixton. It was then ten o'clock at night, and a heavy November fog enveloped the streets In darkness. Inside it was bright enough. A cheerful fire was blazing, and the room was warm and cozy. Everything in the houoc was arranged by my lither of che voices of the. ah#U* CouJ* I hear them now, what would they saj to me? I placed one to my e a t and with closed eyea^lstaned to the •weet confused murmur. There was bar mony in It, but no design; presently, however, came something that wai dear to me. In the midst of the soft murmur a few words of Mabel's favorite song Shaped themselves, and 1 heard her sweet and false voioe singing to me. "In faith abiding, I'll still be true," Ah, me! In those i words she had sworn to be faithful to me. How had that vow been kept? Woman's Nerves. , Mr*. PUtt Talks About Hyateri*. $<ii CHAPTER XXVI. AROUSED myself from my reverie, and' my heart throbbed violently as my gaze fell upon Pearl, who was kneeling before the fire, looking with tender love into my face. Surely it must be a continuation of my dream that cauaed me for a moment to believe it was Mabel herself whose eyes met mine! So did she look as I opened my arms to her, aa I opened them now to Pearl, who raised herself and sat upon my knee, embracing me. W« were disturbed by a knock at the door. I went to the door, and the detective I had employed stood before me. "We have found her," he said, curtly. "My mother!" I cried. "No," he replied; "the other one." With glad eagerness Pearl hand* me my cap. "Good night, dear child," J,said, kissing her. "Go to bed at once, and do not open the door till you hear my voice. I may be out late." I waited outside the Btreet door till I heard the key turned. "Good-night," I cried again. "Good-night, daddy," she called out; "I shall keep awake till you come home." "A pretty lass, that daughter of yours," said the detective, as we walked away. I did not undeceive him as to the relationship, but his remark made a strange impression upon me. "Have we far to go?" I asked. "We had better ride, I think," said he. "We are going to Whitechapel." By the time we reached our destination it was nearly eleven o'clock. But few words were exchanged. My thoughts sufficiently occupied me, and my companion was not disposed to be loquacious. Yet I observed ~him occasionally by the dim light of a street lamp regarding me with a curious and •fl When j» nerve or a set of nerves supplying say organ in the body with its due nutriment grows weak, that organ languishes.

I desired the cabman to wait for us and we turned into the street. "A miserable_place for a woman to live in," I observed, noticing the signs of squallor and poverty around us. He shrugged his shoulders; he was ijmore used to the signs than I. We paused before one of the meanest of all the mean looking nouses. "This is the place," said the detec tlve. "The woman you want lives on the third floor—in the garret, in fact.H I'll stop below. You may have something private to say to her." He gave me some loose matches, for the passage and staircase were in total darkness. I made up my way slowly to the top of the house, never dreaming of what in the next few minutes would be revealed to me. There was no choice of doors to knock at when I reached the top landing, for there was but one. At this I knocked, and a faint voice desired me to enter.

Care and Preparation of Cream and Butter. 1—Cream raised by grav ity pro cesses:— In the old shallow setting system, the cream is allowed to sour on the milk; as the method is practiced on many farms it is not attractive. This is not due to the method itself so much as to the condition under which it is carried on. The farmer's wife has gener ally to fight discouraging conditions at all times, and more especially in the winter time. In cold weather the milk is of the poorest quality on account of scant feeding, cold and dark unhealthy stables, where the animals are standing on manure with poor floor drainage, or no drainage at all. The milk pails are variegated with the marks of slovenliness, and the milk consequently expos- ' "For three years we have never been without Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy in the house" says A. H. Patter with E. C. Atkins & Co., Indianopolis, Ind., and my wife would as soon think of being without flour as a bottle of.this Remedy in the summer season. We have used it with all three of our children and it has never failed to cure—not simply stop pain, but cure absolutely. ed to dung particles and other filth :theee are the conditions and surroundings that make the production of butter in winter a difficult task. During the summer it is quite different, the quality of the milk is the best, owing to the good pastures, The cows are in the fresh and invigorating open air all day long, and they are usually milked in the open air, the udder and hind quarters of the cows are comparatively clean, the milk pai) has a ohance of being exposed to the purifying rays of the sun and good air; besides, the pans, churns and all utensils placed outside for the beneficial action of the sunlight. Of course you are aware of the very great importance played by those very small organisms present at all times in the air of the lower altitudes of the earth's surface, and most of these are generally called under the general name of Bacteria, and in all the numerous changes which take place in cream, butter and. cheese, these bacteria are the agents which are the most important and effective; and the stoutest weapons to fight these objectionable members of this numerous host are pure air, pure water and plenty of sunshine. Again, the lack of neatness frequently found among farmers using this system, comes from their poverty and lack of thorough knowledge. Give the farmer more education in dair sanitation, and the whole dairy business on the farm would be vastly improved. In this system of cream separation the ripening takes place at ~-the-fiaxnfi time_ag the cream-risings A properly soured cream can be obtained in a good deal shorter quired by the ice method! if the Eroqm « kept moderately aud a good atarter is added i milk. The main objection to this method ia, that the tkimmilk sours at the same time aa the oream. This is a serious objection from one point of view, but many farmers complain that they cannot get as good sour milk, when this is made from the sweet skim-milk... The use of this sour milk M* & benefit from one point of viaw, and that is, by the developement of the lactic acid, a safe* guard is formed against the growth in the milk of a large number of infectious bacteria. In the modern system of gravity creaming neither cream nor skimmilk undergoes any appreciable change during the creaming. In this method, as well asin the separating and extracting methods, the fermentation bacteria is not allowed to develope to any great extent, either before or during the rising and separating fo the oream. The means at hand for checking tne fermentation bacteria are 1—Scrupulous cleanliness, as to theperson,the utensils—andihe dairy. 2—Cooling the milk as quickly as possible. 3—Well lighted and well aired and dry creaming room.

Eepjreaentative* and lobbyists and, pluggera and clerks: and messengers and, and Well, all the rest ot the crew which has. been battering away at making and unmaking laws through nearly half a year, more or leas to the advantage or disadvantage of the people, have gone home apparently satisfied with their work and are ready to again become just ordinary citizens if Gov. Plngree recently threatened that unless the legislature did aome- .thiug to make railroads, corporations, etc., stand a larger share, and more just share, as he believes, of the taxes of the state that he would call them together in special session for that purpose and see if they'd dare neglect "the people's interests" then. There's where the 4iif" comes in. Two days before the adjournment of the legislature Gov. Pingree sent a message to both the House and the Senate calling attention to the numerous bills of greatest importance which were, being allowed to die without any effort being made to act upon them. He also objected to the passing of large appropriation bills which were not brought in until within a few days of the time set for adjournment, thus preventing proper and intelligent investigation of them. The governor, therefore, asked that the session be extended at least two weeks that the bills mentioned might be disposed of and the- appropj,iaUons investigated. When the message was received the Senate and House each had u bitter flffht over it. The House passed a resolution making the day of adjournment June 14. The Senate refused to conenr and so they had to "let the old cat die" died on May 31, as had already been scheduled. An examination of the records show that 360 House and 141 Senate bills jwere passed. Two years ago there were 365 House and about 2Q0 Senate bills. The much-talked-of antagonism between the governor and Senate may not account for the entire falling off, but that it does for a good proportion of it there is no doubt. The number of bills on the Pingree program as announced in the inaugural message, which fell outside the Senate breastworks were both numerous and ia»- portant, while the number of Senate bills which perished at the hands of Pingree lieutenants In the House would also make a fair sized volume. The appropriations of the legislature for 1997-8, as reported in the budget prepared by the House committee on ways and means and the Senate finance committee will be $4,377,398, providing the governor signs all the appropriation bills which were passed. This is a saving of $705,059 over the taxesimposed on the state by the preceding legislature for the two years 1895 and 186*3: To this saving may be added the estimated increase in returns from the railroads under ^the Merriam bill, which is placed by Railroad Commissioner Wesseliusat$l*5,6841 and it gives a grand total of saving in taxes to the people of $860,743 over 1895-6. The tax rate for the two years 1895-6 was 4 ½ mills on the dollar. The approximate tax rate for the two years 1897-8 will be 3.9 mills on the dollar, or an average of less than 2 mills on the dollar for each year. So far as the expenses of state departments are concerned, not much has really been saved. There has been an apparent cut of about $500,000, but this is more than covered by the fact ./..¥iOTiua&gBak4. i w •• • . i m S A Y * .

While the resolution to recognise the'Cuban insurgents-4s'bellIgereuts , is being held up by t h e national house J of representatives after being passed by the senate matters jurj.. coming to . the surface at various'polnts/wMch are ! sure to bring a crisis very soon.' Mr. > Calhoun, the special coinmissiqiMtr sent I to Cuba by President McKuuey* has beeu looking about during the*decays in the Ruiz case and is gainlajjfrjh general insight into the condition o f affairs on the island. He already has discovered that Gen. Weyler's talk of Cuba being pacified is not based.pn fact There is not a province in Cuba that is iu a peaceful condition, and the Spanish pickets have warned Calhoun, who, in company with Consul-General Lee, took a ride out of Havana, that it was not safe to venture away from the city more than 15 miles. Consul-General Lee's report that the war is no nearer an end than t w o years ago, and that there is no prospect of either side triumphing so long as one can dig sustenance from the ground and the other borrow money, is fully proved to Mr. Calhoun's satisfaction. The poor people who have been driven from the coiliitry by Gen. Weyler's orders have been seen by Cdinmisstoner Calhoun and their ter^ rible miseries he will relate to the President upon his return. At Matanzas alone he saw 4,000 starving reconcentradoes, and was told that 3,000 ipore had just been driven into the overcrowded small towns of the district, where their plight was hopeless. Gen. Lee "and Mr. Calhoun, with their> interpreter, went from hut to hut questioning women and children whose feet and ankles were so swollen and discolored as to present a shocking appearance, due to a dropsical affection caused b y thin blood and lack of nourishment ^ All said that they had been without food for periods varying from *3 t o . 72 hours, and their appearance showed that they told the truth. It has been openly stated in Washington that the discoveries made by Mr. Calhoun, the special commissioner sent to Cuba by President McKinley» are so horrible that they cannot be printed, but will be related to the President as soon as Mr. Calhoun arrives in Washington, which will be in a few days, as b e bas already sailed from Havana, It is also positively asserted on good authority that the President will take action suitable to the circumstances very soon after reeeiving this report MY. J^rich, to. charge bjll, answered i ^ . T f i l i that two years ago $600,000 was appropriated to make up a deficiency in the state treasury due to unpaid taxes. Some saving has been made in special appropriations, however. The closing scenes of the legislature, with the exception of the mere formalities, were very noisy and almost disgraceful. The evening session of both Senate and House was devoted almost entirely to horse-play, songs were sung, foolish speeches were made for and against more foolish fake bills, and the Representatives finally broke up the session by throwing books, papers, files of legislative^Dnrnab5,.rtc., a i each other. They then; went o^iir | o the Sen ate and assisted that body in indulging in a aivsUar boyish fracas. The only gentlemanly proceeding of the closing hours was the presentation of a silver water set to Speaker Gordon by the Representatives, and engrossed resolutions of esteem to Pre aide ft* Dnnstajs by the Senators.

Reports have been received of a battle at La Reforiua, Sencti Spiritua, in which Gens. Gomez and Weyler met in war for the first time. The engagement was the resitlt of a plan of Gen. Weyler to- surround and crush Gomez with an immensely superior force. The scheme w a s defeated by the brilliant tactics displayed by Gomez, who, eutnumbered by 20 to 1, succeeded in holding the enemy in check for six hours. Gen. Weyler formed three new columns in addition to the 11,000 men who were already operating against Gome/ in Sancti Spiritus. At the head of 5,000 men he marched upon Gomez at La Reforma. The two other Spanish columns of 2y000 men each were to try t o take the Cubans in the flank. WpyW thought frfr».». with this second army he could pen Gomez up and annihilate him, The Cuban commander occupied a strategic position and awaited the attack. The Spanish columns were driven back repeatedly, and even nnder (Sen. Weyler's own eye they fled in terror at the charge of the Cubans. Weyler's horse was shot three times, and then he retired to the rear. The Cubans routed the left flank of the Spanish- completely, but were not strong enough* to follow up their sfeoees.

But tha majority o f the nation, sobered by a sad experience, is only desirous that Europe should protect Greece against her conqueror. The negotiations a i Constantinople have entered upon the anxious stage, owing to doubts us to the real intentions of the sultan whether he means to resume the war or not; A spirit of conciliation is Khown towards the am- Imssadors, butTlTxe Turkish government is playing a double game and is inciting public opinion secretly to oppose the abondment of Thessaly. The sultnn affects to be greatly afraid of the Islamic party, and the attitude of the grand vizier, as shown by the report which he presented to the sultan urging that the whole of Islam was fully determined to retain Thessaly, and tendering his resignation in case Abr dul-Hnmid differed with these views, has strengthened the suspicion that the sultan is prepared to plead that Islamic pressure is the reason fcr not yielding to the powers. The sultan's show of tesistanee to> the powers La generally attributed to German backing, but it is also rumored that negotiations between Turkey and Russia have been in progress -relative to the eventual administration by Russia of a portion of Asia Minor.

The developement of the bacteria is rather incompletely checked. The temperature sinks s b ^ T in the pan and the final, .teRaperature (65 to 59 deg. F.) wbt» not very favorable'to the bacteria is yet by no means unfavorable and as the milk is under the influence of this and Btill higher temperature for at least thirty-six hours, it is evfc-j' dent that a considerable bacterial growth will take place.

Cream obtained by the so-called ice method is comparatively clean from bacteria providing there has been vigilenc(* and cleanliness. By this method the cream may be separated from the milk as soon as it comes to the creamery.

It is the duty of the person in charge to personally inspect the pan-when cleaned In the ice methods now generally Used in many diaries, light and cleanliness are the principal mediums for fightiug the fermentation, bu J by Cooling. The low temperature checks the growth and developement of the bacteria but it does not kill, only placing in a dormant or sleeping state. If there is carelessness or -neglect in proper cooling or the use of unclean vessels the developement of obnoxious bacteria is liable to take place before the temperature is low enough to stop the fermentation; injurious results may be observed later on in the product. The outcome of carelessly made, or slowly cooled, or unclean butter will be of a,n undesirable flavor and the butter made from such cream will not be of such a quality as the cream would otherwise have been. Milk subjected to temperature of 79 dee;. F. will develppe the bacteria very quickly and in proportion as this temperature is lowered the developement will decrease in ratio until at or below 30 degrees F., the developement stops entirely. - I n f h ^ if» fnfti.hnd_j|jift_jnjlk is creamed in high, usually narrow tins.

The method of pasteurizing new milk before separation gives a certain cooked, taste to the bntter, while the pasteurizing of the cream alone avoids this objectionable flavor. The separator method also thrpws the greater number of bactes^ a from the creain into the separator bowl, thus tending greatly to. purify the cream and give cleaner products. In this method the greatest of care must be observed in removing constantly the layer of slime filth from the bowl because when allowed to accumulate part of it will again be washed into the cream ard skimmed milk. It is frequently observed that in some dairies, persons dusty or even dirty are allowed to approach and come in contact with the separators, the drivers and teamsters will pass in and out handling utensils and shaking off the "road dust indifferent to the results. This is damaging because the cream and skim-milk as they come from the separator in their streams offer a larger surface for infection. As soon as the cream comes' from the separator it must be either rapidly cooled or pasteurized in order to destroy or check the bacteria. The cream, if cooled should be lowered to a temperature not higher than 43 degrees F., this, of course, consumes considerable ice, but insures splen- 4'i; l"i >*asv iLOCATEp DkttOy Qpp<**M.£'*'y Depot la He Center of 6»Vhoksak ?fe^ M t ^ fr Ekdric CSJS to Re-; B Center urf at Fhca of Ammtmntt.* tRites, $2.0» to $3M per Day.: cleaned or prepared The so-called 'white specked' bntter is due to an|- exoeas of buttermilk remaining in Again a smoky flavor occasionally met with will invariably be traced to poorly kept establishments where the air supply is insufficient and also the place infected with smoke.

Iced water, or better, ice, and the continued stirring of the entire quantity of cream so as to insure uniform cooling is far mere preferable. The milk in order to be sufficiently pasteurized should be heated up to 170 degrees Farenheit, and then subjected to strong cooling to 39 degrees Farenheit, immediately after; this last step avoids the cooked taste in the butter.

I eonsider these abnormal conditions, the outcome of bacterial developement and f ereneatations; no doubt the faulty feeding of tiie cows has some influence on the quality of the batter; but there are other faults than those already mentioned.

It has been the general belief among dairymen that the occurence of these needle like crystals in the milk or butter was certain proof of the adulteration of the same and indicated the presence of lard or some other animal fat; this appearance will occasionally be met with in warm weather when the butter has been fused and again allowed to solidify; to somethisappears-on the surface of cream or butter as a scum or pellicle. The only recourse in a case of this kind is to subject the infected produce to an even heating to 135 degrees F., for fifteen minutes agitating wellv to insure thorough distribution of heat Cotcluded next week.

There have been multitutdes of instances where meo fend1 women have magnificently conquered the disasters pf the name Inflicted* upon them. Again, many people tabor under the misfortune of incomplete physical equipment. We are iy*our'Creae»r so economically built'that we cana^t afford the obliteration of any pVfBlca) faculty. We went our two osrflfli our two earB, our tw'o hands^. bur, two feet, our eight fingers and two' terrace. Yet what, multitudes of .people have but one eye, or but one foot! The ordinary casualties of life have been quadrupled, quintupled, sextupled, aye, centupled, in our time by the Civil War, and at the North and South a great multitude are fighting the battle of life with hull, or less than half the needed physical armaments. I do not wonder at the pathos of a soldier during the war, who, when told that he must have his hand amputated, said: "Doctor, can't you save it?" and when told that it was impossible, said, with tears rolling down his cheeks: ''Well, then, good-bye, old hand; I hate to part with yo*. You have done me a good service for many years, but it seems you must go. Goodbye." A celebrated surgeon told me: of a scene in the Clinical Department of one pf the New York hospitals, when a poor man with a wounded leg was brought in before the students to be Operated, on. The surgeon was pointing out this and that to the students, ajid handling the wounded leg, and was about to proceed to amputation, when the poor man leaped from the table and hbbbIf8d~to the doorr and—saiey "Gentlemen, I am sorry to disappoint you, but by the help of God I will die with my leg on." What a terrific loss is the loss of, our physical faculties! * • « * * But to full use all the faculties that t«main, and charge on all opposing circumstances with the determination of John of Bohemia, who* was totally blind, and yet at a battle erled out, "I pray and beseech you to lead me so far into the fight that 1 may strike one good- blow with rhis swerd of mine." Do not think so much of what facilities your have lost as of what faculties remain. You have enough left to make yourself felt in three worlds,.while you help the earth, and balk hell, and win heaven. Arise from your discouragements, O men and women of depleted or crippled physical faculties aad see what, by the special help of God you can accomplish! The skilled horsemen stood around Bucephalus, unable to mount or manage him, so wild was the steed.. But Alexander noticed that the sight of his own shadow seemed to disturb the horse.

It Is outrageous to afflict children with an undesirable name because it happened to lie possessed by a parent or a rich u n c ^ from whom favors are expected, or |tome prominent man of the day wisovAnay end his life in disgrace... It is no excuse, because they are Scripture frames, to call a child Jehoikhn, or T^ath- Pileser. I baptized one by the name Bathaheoa! Why, under all the, circumambient heaven* any parent should ^waat to gire to a e y ^ the name of that loose creature of Scripture times I cannot Imagine.

She clung to me, and would have embraced me, but I flung her from me with a bitter laugh. "What would you have said to Mr, Druce?" I cried savagely, "If he stood before you Instead of me? You believed nje to be dead! So did I believe you to be—and hoped it, ay, hoped it! A new misery has come into my life, when I vainly hoped that my troubles were at an end. Love for you! You killed love, and poisoned my heart to you years and years ago, when you betrayed and deserted me. Till then, I cherished you In my heart of hearts, and was true and faithful to you, as I voweaTo be.

"She lives," replied Mabel, faintly; "and I know where she is to- be found." you —•''i-not?" "It's me Where to seek for her." She v u not strong enough to speak. With heaving bosom and clenched hands she directed me to the table by a look. Following her gaze, I saw an envelope on the table, and written on it my mother's name and the addrea of a public house. "Can I take-this?" leaked. She nodded^ but made no farther me. I received the nuts in my cap, and gave her a shilling. She pressed her fingers, over it, and put it to her teeth. "She is blind," whispered the detective* The shock of the news almost struck ine dup»b; for her eyas were wide open and seemed to be looking at me. But Alas! she was never more to see the face of the son whom she had loved so truly and devotedly. "Giv« me a measure, mother," said a sailor. She laughed in a childish way as she filled her measure again. "The lads, bless them?" she piped, "know that X was a Jailor's wife and a sailor's mother: Here, my lad.

The. detective caught my arm and steadied me, and the action recalled me, to myself, I placed the envelope In his hand, and asked him if he was acquainted with the place. "WclU" he answered; "It is in the sailors' quarter—one of the common dancing'notifies." "Let us hasten there." "You know the name the woman upstairs goes by, 1 suppose?" he said. "Yon mean to ask me if I know she Is my wife. That is enough, is it *? no business of mine," he replied, taking his cue from my sullen manner. "1 never interfere in family matters. Peace and quietness is my motto." In less than ten minutes we arrived In the cab at the. sailors' home. It was situated in the most squalid part of the East End of London, and I heard the sounds of music as I entered. "We shall find her in the dancing room," said the detective, after exchanging^ a few words with the landlord. "An,old woman answering to your description comes here every night, and sells puts." r followed him into the room, where a number of sailors were dancing, and there, standing by the bar at which men were drinking t saw my mother, an old, old woman now, with a basket of nuts on her arm. ?foT considering what might be the effects of the sudden surprise upon her, I placed my hand oti her shoulder, and looked in her face. 'Seme nuts, my lad?" she said, in a thin, piping voice. "Thank God for that!" I exclaimed. I Aud without waiting for an answer, *You will refuse, I suppose, to tell 1 she fiMe* a measure and,held it out to than once, to sell out say basket to one man—" "You shall do so now, mother.

It is wonderful, from what you have told me, how ehe has borne it all," Sitting-alone- in- the little-parlor, my thoughts naturally turned on the strange discoveries of the night, and on those events of my life which led up to them. But I could not reduce them to order, my mind was in such a whirl; and one thought was never absent. Had I wronged my wife in believing her to be unfaithful to me? Her pale, suffering and her poverty were stronger witnesses in her behalf than all the circumstantial evidence which proclaimed her false. Pearl's light' step aroused me from my painful mus- In*6-. "She is awake,'* said Pearl, "and is asking for you." I went upstairs at once, and sat by my mother's bedside. "I know my Amos' step," she murmured.

Possibly true no man was more favorably or better known in Livingston county than the deceased. His ever pleasant appearance on the streets was a joy for all who knew him to meet; his relations with the citizens of this place for the 42 years which he lived here was that ef the kindness toward his fellowman.

"President McKiniey will soon appoint a minister to Spain who will be instructed to tender the friendly offices of this government In the matter of terminating hostilities. The President is none too hopeful that these offices will be accepted, but if all offers of mediation are rejected the President will intervene to stop the insurrection; for the United States cannot contemplate another 10 years' rebellion In Cuba. "The Intervention of the part of this government means war with Spain, but Mr. McKiniey has considered all the consequences, and If It must ije war he is prepared to accept the inevitable.

He says the country seems to be almost depopulated and that there are no signs of any buildings standing except at the railroad stations. These, by the way,.are practically forts.

Mr. Calhoun ajMke o f the terrible suffering of the slarvfag old men, women and children who have been concentrated without means of subsistence at various points. His heart has been stirred by the woes of these wretched, starving reconoentradoes, and witn the memory of the scenes of Matanzas upon him, with the memory of dving and the unburied dead, he will undoubtedly soggpst that President McKiniey use what means he can to stop this war of extermination. , - — • ' • ' " , • ,. • • " • ' / * * .

Mr. Bacon, of Georgia, gave his support, to the committee rate, saying i t was essential to the lumber industry of the south. He also spoke in favor of a revenue tariff, so adjusted as to give equal benefits to all industries. Mr, Bacon and Mr. Vest clashed several times on tariff doctrines, Mr. Vest expressing his regret that a Democratic Senator would aid in restoring to the dutiable list one of the three products—lumber, salt and wool—which the Wilson bill put on the free list SEKATK—58th day—The lumber paragraph, which has been more stubbornly' contested than any feature <?t the tariff bill thuB far, was disposed of by defeating the motion of Senator.

A general discussion of the future program on the bill led to a statement by Mr. Allison, in charge of the bill during the illness of Mrf Aldrich, that the committee probably would submit amendment* t o the sugar schedule. HQUSX.—Only routine affairs were disposed of, as the majority forced an adjournment • SfttfA.TX>—5ftth day.—By the decisive vote ef 42 to 19 an amendment to the tariff wa* adopted placing raw cotton, the greet product of the south, on the dutiable list at 60 per eent ad valorem.

Disastrous Error in a Mow Law. An error, which may lead to disastrous complications,, has been discovered in the Graham law amending the general te*iaw^*o as to.ehsjge the time of the annual tax sales from December to May. It has always been the custom to continue the sales by the county treasurer frdm day- to day until all the delinquent descriptions have been offered, and in many counties the lists are so extensive that it is an impossibility to offer all the lands in a single day. The recent legislature intended to re-enact this provision, hut the house clerk who engrossedytbe, bill ehonged^tb^ontlre pvovision by, inserting the 'word "not."1 thus providing that such sals.'^fthall not be continued."

Her beauty had brought her all she had ever dreamed, more than ahe could ever have hoped. It was the last night of the burlesque wherein she made herself famous. The house was crowded, and she excelled herself in every song and dance. At the close of the piece the. stage was covered, ( with bouquets from adinlrere—from men she knew and men who wished to be known to her. She stood amid a bank of flowers, and bowed to the thunders q£ applause. She was a queen, for that night at least, Then,, when the curtain bad gone down for the last time, she picked up one or two of the offerings and went off to the dressing room. One ahe hell in her, hand had attracted her by jyi uncommon shape and condition. It a half-faded cross of white lilies. She' threw it contemptuously on her tabled and pressed the other—the gift of a young EarT^tb her tips.

According to the beat sources of informatlea, the world's supply of cotton in 199S aggregated 18,200,000 bales, or 7,2a»,eot,OOe pounds. Of this lmmenae crop 10,6O»,e00 bales were produced In the United States; 2,(00,000 in India and 634,000 in Egypt The remaining bales were produced in the various parts of the globe. In different countrias different standards ot msaturemant obtain, and In no two countries is the weight of a bale of cotton exactly the same. The American bale averages 450 pounds,the Indian bait 406 pounds,, and the Egyptian hale 717 pounds. Some idea of the vast astemt of the world's cotton area may he gathered from the fact that in the United States alone it covers over 20,000,000 acres. In 1830 die. world's total output of cotton aggregated only €36,000,000 pounds or eleven times leas than in 139$. Within a single decade, however, the product almost doubled, amounting •in 1840 to 1,192.000,000 pounda. fence then the world's product has been aa follows: 2,391,000,000 pounda in 1800, 4,039,699,000 pounds in 1880, and 7.190,- 009,000 in 1895. Prom these figures some idea of the vast iniportanee of the cotton plant aa a factor in the world's growth and progress saay be obtained. 0DR 9 <*««M.*«»* <.'r • * •>*'< T mm$c* .:.-/¾ i -eevfata «**""•* aaw aaai1 I » I m (-*?»*' The mm af Ufa, I A R O B 8 R a t * a aid. * bo a* dE3£S mwtranged f w n v a i of Ufa's hghta, tJnlearnei n yJ^th*t:" v •- m > ^lafr—• •• i •- Who talleat^jeat But^vl^ln^SS depths of ta9a>' | : ytodstrua^rleattothafcasn; ,n ,, bl.oome a a d vtaw;tWaiaad^of a m .

Ooaoluftod Jfrom l««t WMk, Off Falvor Butter j—Comes from a slovenly method of preparing the butter and uncleanly habits in the care of the utensils. I n the ripening of the cream, the immense number of different kinds of bacteria tend to imperfect curing and consequently a poor quality of produce. At this season of the year we are liable to frequently meet with bitter and unclean milk and cream or even butter, and these conditions are ascribable to the great variety of conflicting bacteria and their products and consequently the normal liwtio acid fermentation is prevented. BttterBnttero r Milk is-due to the presence of certain different germs; some microscopists claim it to be a micrpcoccies; others to a bacillus; at any rate it causes a bitter taste to milk or butter but does not show up iu these. I t usually destroys the flavor of the butter in a short time. Turnip taste does not come from feeding the animals on the turnips or other roots, but is due entirely to a bacillus which develops in the cream or milk before the ripening of the cyeam; this flavor has been frequently found in butter made from the milk of animals that Were not fed on any turnips or other roots, and further the disease can be spread in milk or cream by introducing the least bit of the infected into the sweet flavored and normal milk or cream""*6 and by the rapid developement of the germs, the entire batch will become so effected.

Pullman won against the settlements created by Krupp the gun man and Stumm, the great maker of steel, and Baron von Binghofer, The verdict of the jury was unamious, finding that Pullman was without a peer in the matter of comfortable homes for workingmen, sti+ets, sewers, water system, shops, public halls, churches, grounds and the rules and regulations governing them.—M.

From the preceeding one would anticipate that dairying in these days is a very complicated industry; it is not an industry for a careless and indifferent person to engage in; but the-- utmost care and cleanliness should at all times be observed and a thorough knowledge acquired in the underlying principles. Pure Air, Pure Water, Pure Food are the three great requisites in the dairy business. The demands on all who make or deal in dairy products for high quality of goods have very much increased of k t e y«ars. There is a growing demand for the best, both at home and abroad, and the standard is constantly ascending. I t is sincerely hoped that our Michigan dairymen and fanners will keep a •trict vigilance for eyery inducement offered by the United States Secretary of Agriculture, Mr. -Wilson, in his latest undertaking to promote the American dairy interests abroad.

Look at Bkrward• Jenuer, the great herb of'medtelne, , Four hundred thousand people annually dying* in Butope from the amallnox, Jenner .finds that by the lno^ukit!on of people with vaccine from a cow the great scourge of nations may ber arrested. The mtniatere of ' the Gospel .denounced .vaccination; small wlta carlcatujred Edward Jenner as aiding in a great .procession on the back of a cow; and grave men expressed it as their opinion that all of the diseasesof the brute creation would be transplanted into the human family; and they gave Instances where, they said, actually horns had come out on the foreheads of innocent persons, and. people had begun to chew the cud! But Dr. Jenner, the hero of medicine, went, on fighting for vaccination until it has been estimated that that one doctor, in fifty years, has Baved more lives than all the battles of any one century destroyed. Passing along the streets -of Edinburgh a few weeks after the death of Sir James Y. Simpson, I saw the photograph of the doctor 'n all the windows of the shops and stores, and well might that photograph be put In every window, for he first used chloroform as an anaesthetic agent. In other days they tried to dull human pain by the hasheesh oi the Arabs and the madrepore of the Roman and the Greek; but it was left to Dr. James Simpson to introduce chloroform as an anaesthetic. 2. ?---r :.

When they returned to Brixton, Mr. Draco was the first to meet them, and he filled' her ©ere with the slanders that were in circulation about me. She did not believe them; her mother did: "If yourare—n5t civil to Mr. 1111166/4 said her mother, "I shall have to go into the work house."

Time servers exist in every line of business and perfunctory service is a bane to any office which aims to do good work. The man who is always ready to start out at the stroke of the hour or who dwadles and impatiently awaits the moment when he can get off from his desk or work is not preforming his duty to his employer.

NIOARAO^A MAHQQAWV, »ee «»efiP" i t ^ ^ t Twe' otnete, Atojpta «t«d It wm undoubtedly be news to many that the vast mahogany forests of Nicaragua are controlled In Boston, says the Boston Transcript The cutting and snipping at the immense exports from that cowntsf ts a great enterprise in itself, to say nothing of bringing it here and manufacturing It Into lumber. One steamer plies regularly between Boston and Central America engaged in this trade. At present she is on her way out from Boston. From 600,000 to 700.000 feet Is her usual cargo. While the steamer is now on her way to the lumber ports there are somewhere on the seas, bound to Boston, four schooners laden with mahogany logs. Their cargoes are about 250,000 to 300,000 feet apiece. Employed in Nicaragua and the United States of Colombia by Mr. Emory are from 1.000 to 1,500 native workmen and lumbermen. These are under American bosses. The trees from which mahogany furniture is made vary in age and else. When cut they range in age from 25 to SO years and some of them are even 76 years old. They average twenty-live inches or more in diameter and run as large as forty Inches and even more. For every mahogany tree that i s cut two others are planted; and thus the forests are practically inexhaustible. From the time that the tree is felled to the hour that it is dumped off the steamer at the Chelsea docks 1B an eventful life for the mahogany log. The tree Is cut into the proper lengths and then comes the tedious journey to the coast, where it is taken on board the vessels bound , Twinkles for this port The greater part of the cutting is done during the dry season,* which in the United States of Colombia begins about the 1st of December. The natives of that country seem to make better loggers and are better adapted te- lumbering than the Nicaraguans. In Nicaragua the season is more irregular and for lumbering ts less to ta depended upon. After the tree is cut it is hauled to the nearest waterway and rafted to the coast. The logs are hauled by teams of oxen from one to six miles in Nicaragua, but oaten the distance is very much greater, I lMJ»*ei^»g«^Tjr^««i»«i the journey sometimes taking? twoffS^^^^$^^^i$ K:.& . .

"Lcck up, Solomon, my man," he said. Solomon obeyed^ turning the key In the inner door, and then that of the outer one of solid oak, while the minister stood waiting on the path. Then the two, side by side, and with much the same kind of mechanical trot, passed across the churchyard, pausing now and again to struggle with the fierce gusts, and to hold on their beadgear— the, sexton his Sunday "bonnet," and the minister his broad-brimmed plerlcaj hati . , Reaching £he Iron^gate, ,wb4ch was rattling and creating .in the wind, they descended three qwaa-giown siaps, and reached the highway. Here all was pitch dark, for the shadow of tall yewtrees fall from the other side, deepening the nccturnal blackness1; but, crossing the .road, they opened another gate, .oroased the garden where the yaWftrse* grew, and reached the door of the manse. Standing here In complete shelter, they heard the "sough" of the blast overhead among_the tossing, boughs, ilka, the wild thunder of a stormy sea. The manse was a plain two-story buUdl&ferv a* otd aa the times of the Co*««an* and containing numberless impassioned, wrathful, and in the nar cheerless Chambers, the majority' of wnteh W§Ye unfurnished. Here the Reverend Sampson Lorraine had dwelt In'solitude' for flve-and-twenty years. He Had come to the place as a shy young bachelor, a student, and a bookworm; and despite all the sieges that bxJL been laid to his heart, as was inevitable in a place where marriageable men were few and spinsters many, a bachelor he had remained ever since. People said that a love disappointment in early life bad made him thereafter invulnerable to all the charms of women) but at first his single condition made him. very popular. Presently, however, as,bis position as * bachelor gryiw morn oftnflrmtjsl, ftn<Thl| »onentrl to awaken -TT v* m^mufmS&M- ,erUes increased, he oaasad much interest Opening the door with a latch-key, he entered a bare lobby, and striking a light, led the way into a large room o n the ground floor. It was scantily fufttiaaed with an old carpet, an oldfashioaed circular table with drawers, and several chairs; but.on the walls were numerous shelves, covered with Dosflat. The room had two large windews looking on the back lawn which aloped down to the river, but was with" out curtains of any kind. • fire burned on the hearth, and a rud* box of peat fuel stood by the fireeide. One «Me of the table was spread v i t a a etean doth, on wfrteUt stood a tray with broad, oatcake, cheese, and butter, and a large atone watef-yttf, a black-bottle, and some glataec.1' " "Sit y e down, Solomon/' said the minister^ piacinc a Hghted candle on the table).

Meantime Mr. Lorraine, haying, divested hienaatt of his cloak > and hat, sat down in >he arm-chair by the fireBlde, . . . . .,:-.-,.,-.- "Here's fortune, air," aald Solomon, drinking oft the whisky; then, wiping his mouth with his sleeve, he sat bolt* upright and expectant, .waiting to see if Ills superior had anything more to say. But, as the minister remained silent, Solomon rose to go. "Are v e mlhdfa' the funeral the morn?"'the sexton asked, taking up his bonnet. Mr Lorraine nodded. "Can I bring ye anything before I gang to bed? 1 maun rise at five to feenlsh the grave." "No; go to bed. I shall sit up and read a little." "Weel, good-night, sir." "Good-night, Solpmon," Thereupon Solomon left the room, closing the door softly behind him. Lighting a candle in the lobby, he made his way quietly to a chamber in the upper part of the house, where he slept, and which was, indeed, the only chamber in the manse, excepting the minister's sitting-room and adjoin* lng bedroom, which contained any furniture. Many years before Solomon had taken up his abode there, on the minister's invitation, and it was his only heme. Besides performing the duties of sexton and clerk; h e acted generally as factotum to Mr. Lorraine, attended to the garden^ and groomed the pony on which the minister made his visitations about the country. An aged woman, Mysie Simpson, came in every day to clean and cook, but invariably' retired to her own dwelling at nightfall. So the two old men were practically alone together, and, despite the difference in their social positions, regarded each other with a peculiar attachment The minister sat for some time musing, then with a sigh h o took a book, from 4he s h ^ e ^ a n A bejan to read. It was a volume of old sermona, written by a south-country clergyman, row. sense Calvinistie. As he read, the wind roared round the house, and moaned in the chimneys, and rattled the shutterlese windows; but as the wind rose the darkness decreased, and the vitreous rays of the moon began playing on the window panes.« Mr. Lorraine lit his pipe—the only luxury in which he indulged; for despite his* plump figure, which he inherited, he was abstemious and a tee^- totaler. Then, with another sigh, he rose and walked thoughtfully up and down the room; paused at one of the windows, and looked down the moonlighted lawn which sloped to the riverside; talking all the time to himself, flfi " i f hft ^"ftrmH haHt < f i l l .

Tears stood in the old man's eyes aa he looked out in a dream. Through the long years of loneliness and poverty— for his living was indeed a poor one—ho had cherished the memory of one who had gone away from him to God when only la her eighteenth year. Suddenly, there came a load single knock at the front door. The Minister started, listening, and the same moment a gnat of unusual force- shook the boeae t o its foundation.

But in a moment the old man guessed the truth—that the hapless creature had been left there by some one who had knocked and fled. Still holding the child in his arms, he ran out in the garden and looked on every side. "Come back!" he said; "whoever you are, come back!" But no one responded. The wind moaned dismally In the trees that lifted their black branches overhead, that was all. He ran to the gate and looked up and down the road, but could see nobody. As he stood in perplexity the child cried again loudly, and struggled in hlB arms. "Bless me!" he murmured; "I must take it in, or it will die of cold!" He ran back to the door and.knocked loudly again and again,, It was some tithe before he was heard. At last, however, he beard footsteps coming along the passage, and redoubled hia knocking. The door opened, and Solomon Mucklebacklt, half dressed, apppeared on the threshold; . Without a word the minister ran into the lobby. "Losh me, meen later, is it yoursel'?" ejaculated Solomon, in amazement "I thought you were in bad." "Come this way—quick!" shouted Mr. Lorraine. "Bring a light!" And still , carrying his burden, he ran into the sitting-room. Solomon closed the door, struck a match, and lighted.a candle, and followed him immediately, Then his amazement deepened. To see Mr. Lorraine standing by tha fireside with a crying infant in Ms arms waa indeed enough to awaken perplexity and wonder. "My conscience, meenister, what hae ye gotten there?'/ "A child! Some one left it in the porch, knocked, ^nd ran away. Run, Solomon, search up and down the road, and see if you can find them. Shame upon them, whoever they are. Don't standstaring,bitrun.** " Perfectly bewildered, Solomon stood gaping; then with one horror-stricken look at the infant, left the room, and ran from the house. Left alone with the child, the minieter seemed puzzled what to do. He held i t awkwardly, and its cries continued; then, to still It, he rocked it ' to and fro in his arms. —Wading it mill—troublesome, he placed it down in the arm-chair, and softly loosened the shawl in which it was wrapt, freeing its little arms. Its cries ceased for a time, and it lay with eyes wide o p i X spreading it* little hands in the warm twilight The minister put on his glasses and looked at it with solemn curiosity. It was a tiny infant, about two months old; its little pink face was pinched with cold, and its great blue eyes dim with crying. A common linen cap was on its head, and Us gown was of coarse linen. Bat it was so small, so pretty, thai the minister's tender heart melted over it at ,009a, He offered it hia forefinger, which it gripped with its tiny hands, biinkiag up into his face. "Poor wee mite!" he murmured, "I wonder who your mother is? A wicked woman, I'm thin ting, to east you away on such a night a s this!** As if in answer to bis words, the child began to cry again.

ANDREWS, ED* t O * . THURSDAY, JUNE 24, 1897. J.ll.l..lBi WASHINGTON LETTER. •Washington, D. C , June 18, '97. The most important event of the week in Washington was the sending of the treaty for the annexation of Hawaii to the United States as a territory to the Senate. There is jubilation among those who believe that the true policy of this government is to get cou- ' trol of all outlyiug islands in both the Pacific and Atlantic oceans. There is some talk about ratification of this treaty being made a party question in the senate but it is hardly likely any considerable number of Senators can be found who will acknowledge themselves to be so short-sighted as such an act would proclaim them to be. This is not a party question; it is an American question, as President Grover Cleveland quickly learned when he thwarted the last attempt at annexation. The Japanese minister has been asking some questions about the annexation treaty which indicate an intention on the part of his government to make a protest against a treaty. I t is not now certain that the treaty will be ratified by the Senate at this session of Congress, but a protest from Japan would make its ratification not only certain but speedy. Senator Kyle, who strongly favors annexation, says he has made a poll of the Senate and that fifty-five Senators have declared for annexation and twelve are in doubt how they will vote. Sixty votes will be needed to ratify the treaty. I n order tolxe prepared for any contingency, it is undurstood that the friends of annexation will introduce a joint resolution in both House and Senate annexing Hawaii. I n case there is a disposition on the part of the opponents of annexation to filibuster against a vote on treaty in the Senate this resolution will be put through and annexation will be accomplished just the same as though the treaty were< ratified. Texas was annexed by a joint resolution after a treaty had failed of ratifi- Intcreattng Ittmt. By actual count there were 579 bicycles in the parade at Ann Arbor on Tuesday night of last week although the claim is made that there were 700 bicyclers present. A new industry is being, practiced in the southern part of the state by a party of men who are going about catching turtles from the lakes aud pond. The reptiles are shipped to the oities where they find a good market price among the hotel and restaurant keepers. Chas.

The Ann Arbor railroad now sells 500 and 1,000 mile mileage books, for $10 and $20 respectively good for two years.

Posts throughout the country are passing resolutions indorsing Judge Tourgee's suggestion that Memorial Day be changed to always fall upon the fourth Sunday in May. The growing tendency of young America to make Memorial day one of sport and frolic, to devote it to picnics, base ball games, etc., is becoming so common that it is feared the beautiful intent of the observance will be lost unless some change is made.—Ex.

We have become eclectics, observing only those portions of the moral code that are agreeable to us, and by zealous devotion to pet commandments we hope to atone for our failure to keep disagreeable ones. The drunkard thinks by being good hearted, he is excusable for his drunkenness. The man to whom chastity is irksome takes refuge in the fact that he pays his bills.

We dip the following from the Ann Arbor Argus which will be reed with interest at this time: The Hawaiian Islands comprise an archipelago in the Pacific O^ean about 8,500 miles west of Mexico and 2,700 miles southwest of San Francisco, They lie between latitudes 18 degrees and 51 minutes and 22 degrees 50 minutes north longitudes 154 degress 50 minutes and 161 degrees 40 minutes west. There are twelve of them, covering an era of 6,677 sq. miles. There are two active vol- : canoes on this island—Bilauea and Manna Loa, Many eruptions attended with lose of life, have occured. The highest point on Hawaii, Mauna Eea, is 18,905 feet above the sea level, and there are other great altitudes on the island. The rock of the whole group is volcanic. The following are some of * the minerals that have been noticed: Sulpher pyrities, com* mon salt, garnet, labradorite, feldspar, gypsum, soda, alum, coperas, glauber-salt, nitre and calcite. The vegetable kingdom is rich in interesting forms, and'many new species and varities have been discovered. A. CIIMATE HOT AND COOL. The climate is much affected by locality and varies from cool, frosty ^weather to ~a h igh average of h e a t T h e northeast trade winds blow the greater part of the year and prevent the heat from becoming oppressive. The soil i s fertile and well adapted to planting and grazing. I t i s estimated that there are Meetly2t000,Q0O acres of grazing land and 290,000 acres of arble land. T h e mountain sides abound in forests in which there is plenty of ship timber and ornamental woods. Sugar, of course, i s the principal product. There were in 1890 between forty and fifty planrtyotations which raised, and manufactured about 40,000 tons of sugar, besides qualities of molasses. Wool, hides, tallow, rice and bananas are exported in considerable quanities. Nearly all the crops of temperate climes cau be grown but they are not profitable because of lack of markets. In 1890 the value of sugar plantations was estimated at 132,847,690 owned as follows: By citizens of the U. 8., $24,735,610; by British, $6^88,180; by Germans, $2,008,600 by Hawaiians, $266,250; by all other nationalities, $299,100. The area of land under sugar etjltiva- , tion was 67,839 and the exports of augar were 292,083,580 pounds. % W H O A B f f T H £ HAWAIIAN*. , ,VvX origin of the Hawaiians.

The islands were discovered in 1542 by a Spanish navigator named Qaetano. Long before this several Spanish vessels, had been wrecked on the coast of Hawaii and the survivors had intermarried with the natives, Oaptian Cook visited the islands in* 1778 sighting the islands of Oahu and Kauai on January and anchoring at Walmea, Kauri, January 19. After visiting the island of Kilhau he sailed for the American coast but returned and was finally killed by the natives. THE HAWAIIAN FEUDAL SYSTEM. The Hawaiians at this time sup. ported elaborate feudal system, closely analogous to the system in Europe in Middle Ages. Karaeh a meha I. was the first king. In 1892 and the two following years Vancouver visited the Hawaiian islands and introduced cattle on May 8, 1819.. Kamehameha died after a successful reign in which he had established his kingdom over the whole group©. His eldest son, Liholiho succeeded him under the title of Kamehameha II with Kaahumanu widow of Kamehameha I, as Premier, and she in influenee and power^wae. the real sovereign. Shortly* after, on April 4, 1820 the first missionaries arrived from the United* S t a t e s - seven men with their wives. They immediately began to reduce the language to writing. The first printing was done in 1822. In 1823 the King and Kamamalu his queen visited Great Britian where they both died the year following.* Then the Premier became regent and governed until the majority aha JIX 1fn^840 the King aj^d MJflnfril ( I n ' M m chiefs promulgated the cooatita- ffWlWMj m l .

In 1849 the temporary occupation and embargo of the port of Honolulu by the French took place. In 1852 free suffrage was granted as a civil right. The King died in 1894 and was succeeded by Alexander Ltyioliho, son of Kinau, the daughter of JL&mehameha I, He reigned as Kame* haneha. IV. -Lot Kamehameha brother of the late king, succeeded as Kamehameha V, and abrogated the national constitution and promulgated a new one limiting the right of suffrage by a property qualification. , He died v Continued on page S. o{K«4a^jpL w e w a A ^ a a ^ cnmiiial lawswe^re e n a ^ d wi iLW < eiata^rlaia^ Colifi.

On February 12, Kalakaua was elected King by the Legislature DotwitfarBtauding the determined opposition of Queen Dowager Emma, whioh culminated at the election in a riot by her supporters in which many of the represenatives were severely injured and the legislative ball was partially demolished. Order was restored by armed forces from British and United States warships ^n the harbor. QUEEN LIL APPEABS. In 1887 the progressive party demanded a new constitution providing for a cabinet removable only by vote of the Legislature. This was accepted by Kalakaua who afterward however tried to regain his lost power, Kalakauadied in January 1891 and was succeeded by his sister, Liliuolalani, who from the first was opposed to the new constitution. Soon she began to evade some of its essential provisions, * especially by the repeated appointment of ministries in opposition to the vote of the Legislature and gave further offence* by her alliance with a' lottery project and the op- 111¾'/ industfyT Finally it was learned that she intended to proclaim a new constitution. This caused her overthrow. A provisional government was established which finally led to the present republic. .

A large portion of the book is taken up with a very interesting and oomplete report of the large Bound-up Farmers' Institute held at St. Louis last March. In addition to this is a series of lectures on "The Soil" by Dr, R. C. Kedzie of the Agricultural 'College which lectures alone are well worth the cost of joining the Institute. In the book are the quotations from many of the best local papers read at the various Institutes. Besides this, there is a complete report of the Superintendent, Conductor and Secretaries reports from each institute held last winter, together with attendance at each meeting and officers of the different Institute societies. The 'Superintendent of Institutes informs us that these books will soon be shipped to the Secretaries of the various county Institute societies by wbcm they will be distributed. Each paidup member of a county institute society is entitled to and should insist upon--receiving from the secretary one of these books.

Bertha Winkler has been sentenced at East Jordan to 90 days at the Detroit house of correction for stealing goods from the East Jordan Lumber Co.'s store. She hid in the store until after It was closed. Her parents are respectable farmers and the girl is only 16 years old and bore a good reputation. A young man believed to be her accomplice has escaped. The tillage of Stevensyille was terrorized. by a gang of 300 tramps who burglarized houses and stole chickens, pigs and calves which they roasted. One of the hoboes was arrested and the gang broke into the jail and released him. Another one was locked up later, and when an attempt was made to rescue him the citizens backed up t h e village marshal with revolvers and landed the fellow in the county jail. The Saylor Hoop Co., which was es^ tabllshed at Gladwin several years ago by the bonus process', has given n mortgage to New York creditors in the sum of $10,000, leaving many local creditors out in the cold.

The great international Christian En- Private Vasbaw, a recent recruit J% deavor convention at San Frapclso and the low rates made by the railroads attracted many hundreds of excursionbits and the dates tor, the starting of the trains drew such crowds into Chicago that the railroads had hard work to handle them. One large excursion train was sent out .from Chicago on the Chicago & Northwestern in nine sections carrying about 0,000, and when about 30 miles out a collision occurred between sebtions 4 and, 5 wfclih had Started 15 minutes a^aVt ^Set^jpn' r5 came up behind at great speed and the shock of the collision was terrific. The passengers in the two rear sleepers of section 4 were all in their berths. They received "no warning and those not killed outright awoke to find themselves jammed in the wreckage. Passengers on both trains hastened to the spot and began the work of rescue. One of the first of the injured taken out was Engineer Charles Courtney, of section 5. He had struck to his post like a hero and is so seriously injured that he cannot live. The body of an unidentified man, supposed to be a tramp, was found between a baggage oar and the engine crushed to death. Three persons were found to be killed outright and about 90 or 30 persons injured. The dead are: Mrs. John Gooding, and Mrs. R. Shipman, both of Apple ton, Wis., add the unknown tramp, who was riding between engine, and baggage can. Train 11, on the Vandalia railroad, which left Indianapolis with a large number of Christian Endeavorers, collided with train 6, bound east from S t Louis, near Vandalia, Ind. Two trainmen were killed and two fatally injured, as follows: Killed—B. T. Sherman, mailcler4c.No.<6f of JndUnapolis, and W. P. Coop, baggageman, of Indianapolis, on No. iL, FataUy injured —Samuel Parkinson, mail clerk;,, of Columbus, 0.,crushed in the wreck, Frank Ownes, fireman, of Ter re Haute, mangled under the engine.

They entered the bank of Rogers A S o n , ' after having attached a wire to the trolley line of the electric railway. This wire was'run over a transom and to tfre safe. Another wire was attached t o the rail of the street carf track. At the ends of these wires were carbon points, and with these an attempt was made with the arc light thus formed to melt the* know of the combination. The experiment worked all right and the knob had been nearly melted away when t h e current was shut off at the street railway power house shortly after midnight The burglars then gave up the task. The job was planned scientifically and would have proven successful within a few minutes.

Republican* of South Dakota, was atrlcken . with paralysis of the vocal cords which brought his vehement speech .to a ejose. with aaentenoe.ha.if uttered. The Senator was not physically incapacitated, except in the augden loss of his voice. Although he took, his seat unaided, bis associates felt that grave possibilities were involved in such an attack. They were quickly by his side and he was ministered to with as little confusion as possible. He left the chamber soon after and was taken home by bis friends. The debate proceeded, but no further progress on the tarijf bill was made, and the a we-like feeling occasioned by this incident led to an early adjournment Later in the day Mr. Pettlgrew was reported to be rap- Jdly<recovering. , ...I'x >( SEWATE.—76th day.—Good- progress was made on the tariff-J>ill, d isposing of the paragraphs relating to hides which have been ,the source of mneh controversy. The discission was protracted, drifting into a general debate on trusts, and to a severe arraignment of the sugar'trust by Messrs. Caffery and Lindsay, and a general discussion of means to deal with trusts by Mr. Hoar. SINAT^.—77tb day.—After tedious consideration of the tariff bill throughout the day—the lead paragraphs being disposed of—the*'Senate wound up with a half hour of lively and amusing colloquy between Senators Tillman, of South Carolina, and Chandler, of New Hampshire. The former had proposed an amendment to the tariff bill, providing a 1100 a head tax on immigrants, and a restriction against all those not coming to the United States to become cfiiaens. Mr. Tillman made an earnest speech on the depressed condition of labor, but was diverted from his theme by Mr. Chandler. T h e latter, adopting a stye* of mocfc>gravityv directed the discussion toward Mr. Cleveland's administration. This brought from Mr. Tillman a vehement criticism of %he late President, while Mr, Chandler drolly protested against these assaults on Mr. Cleveland by a member of his own party. The Tillman amendments were'finally defeated. • Cabinet Crisis In Venesnela. Dispatches from Caracas, Venezuela, state that the cabinet has rcslguedowing to differences over ^he.

"In the Queen we have introduced an arrangement for feeding the furnace with oil so at to economise coal after steam hat been got up," said the manager. "The boat carries four tons of coa! and two, tanks of oil, and the laiter, sprayed into the flres„ will last the tame length of time that the coal allowance will. The dimensions of the new vessel, which is built entirely of steel, are fifty-five feet in length and sixteen feet in breadth at the deck. When loaded and carrying thirty passengers she displaces about thirty ions and has a water draught of three feet three inches. The hull cont r t i s eighteen water-tight compartneuts. The engines and boHer occupy two and the coal bunkers another two. -Toe sea water ie scooped u p by open !ii(.uth8 in the side of the boat amid- !-flips, and shot out stemward by means of a centrifugal pump through a tube <m each side of the'vessel with great force, and the impact of these columns w'*h the surrounding body of the oc<uan drives the lifeboat ahead at a ar-^d oi nine or ten knots an hour. 3t*jtm is supplied at a pressure of 145 po'inds per square inch, and the eng& es develop, about 260-horse power There is no reversing gear, means of two other tubes turned toward the bow the water may cut off 4u<1 shot forward and the boat can be brought to a stop from full speed ln$ 'even seconds.

Peter Morgan of Howell slipped on a banana peeling while coming out of the postoffice last Wednesday evening and fell striking his 4eft hand on the point of a fender on the window tearing it badly. "Pete" is well known in this vicinity. Some men think that the gratification of curiosity is the end of knowledge; some the love of fame; sonie the pleasure of dispute; some the necessity of supporting themselves by their knowledge is this, that we should dedicate that reason which was given us by God to the use and advantage of man. Ralph Carr is the possessor of fifteen consecutive "Honorary Cards" from the Powlerville Union school, which meanB that he has been neither absent or tardy for the last five years. He liveB nearly a mile and a half from the school. It is a retord any boy may well feel proud of.— Beview.

One weighing 45 tons has been placed on the southern shore of Long Island, where Nathan Hale afterexecuted as a spy was captured by British soldiers.—The bowlder bears three tablets with inscriptions bearing his famous sentence: "I only regret that I have but one life to give mv country." Men who use the newspapers more or less will be interested in knowing about the rates charged by some of the publications in this country. The last page of Munsey's Magazine has been sold for one year to four advertisers each of whom occupy a quarter of a page and pay $6,000 making a total of $24,000 for the page. One line in the Youth's Companion costs 15 a time while a page in the Ladies' Home Journal costs ¢4,000 an issue. '*Tou are not tbe only —."

It is there only that his faculties, expanded in full bloom, shine out, there only reach their proper use. Stowe Bros, and Mark Smith of Iosco delivered to £. A. Stowe last Thursday three-quarters of a car of wool in three loads, the largest load weighing 3,185 lbs which was probably the largest load ever drawn to Howell,—Democrat A western writer say a that shearing sheep by hand is fast dissapearing. At Casper, Wyoming he saw thirty-six men shearing sheep by the aid of a gasoline engine and making better time and getting more wool than by the old method. It is stated by the best judges that at least a pound more wool is taken from each sheep by the machine method than by hand and the cut is much smoother, while at the same time two men can turn out as much work with steam as three could by hand. The law making it a duty of judges of probate to issue marriage licenses and perform ceremonies of marriage in certain oases will take effect August 29, and the secretary of state has issued a circular calling the attention of the probate judges to the law. The statute is intended for the protection of the reputation of certain females. Special attention is called to the provisision of the law requiring strict secrecy to be observed concerning marriages of this class. They are not__to be talked about by the judges, their deputies or assistants, or by the physician indorsing the application.

The Power of Saying No. Somebody has said that to give a young man power to say no is a grander gift than giving him a thousand pounds. There is a large family of Pliables in existence— folks born with back bones. I like a youth who can look one in the face and if a thing is a lie say so and if it is true, hold to it though all the world is against him. You will get such boys as these from bands of hope, for if they say no in connection with drink they can say no in connection with other things. A little fellow who had been brought up a staunch teetotaler was about to be apprenticed. The foreman offered him a glass of beer. The little fellow said, "I dou't touch that stuff." "Halloo youngster" replied the foreman "we have no teetotalers here." "If you have me, you will have one" returned the boy. The foreman was irritated and holding up the glass of beer he said "Now, my boy, there is only one master; you'll either have this inside or outside." The little fellow said: "Well you can please yourself. I brought my clean jacket with me and a good character. You may spoil my jacket but you shan't spoil'my character." With the fund left by Benjamin Franklin to the Boston printing trade, amounting now to some 1400,000, it is proposed to erect a labor temple.

Peary has left Washington for his trip to the ArVjfcrc teas. We trust it may not prove to be a fool's errand. 11 must be conceeded that the Fourth of July orator had plenty of material for screeching purposes this year. The determined fight for the interests of the Western Wool grower, made in the Senate bv Senators Thurston, Teller, Foraker, Carter and others resulted in a viotory for the sheep raiser. Mv. Foraker did not attend the convention of the Ohio Republicans, He remained in Washington to sit up with the tariff bMl. In the autumn he will go to Ohio to sit up with Mr. Hanna. General Lee, our Consul General at Cuba, has forwarded a letter to the State Department, stating that there are 13300 American citizens who are now receiving assistance from this government from the appropriation recently made by Congress. Mark Hanna as a business man is one thing; Mark Hanna as a politician is quite another. As a business man, Mr. Hanna wants the duty on coal reduced to 40 cents a ton; as a politician he will vote for the 60 cents a ton duty provided in the new tariff bill. Hon, William H. Fleming, of Augusta, Ga., is one of the new members from the South who is unfettered by party prejudice and whose broad patriotism enables him to rise above the d e l a t e s o f party creed. He believes the dietates of party leaders should be ignored if necessary to bring industrial happiness. The child tauiglrtto believe any occurence a gqod or evil omen, or ! any day of ^h&_w_eek lucky* hath a wide inroad made upon the soundness of his understanding. John Wolverton plowed out nine blue racers last week, the longest being njne feet and the shortest six feet They were all killed. One loving fellow coiled around one of John's limbs and we are safe in saying he made so me lively moves to dislodge bis snakeship,—Dansville Eagle. Pat McCabe is the owner of what may be properly designated "a happy family." The members of it form a very unique collection and consist of two great-horned owls, a long-eared owl, a crow and a game rooster, all of which live together in the happiest manner in a cage about four by six feet in dimensions.—Dexter Leader. Five years ago a man named Viogt stole a ride on a railroad in Colorado. Recently he became a Christian and was smiten with remorse to such an extent that he sent a jsritten confession to the company, inclosing 81,65, being his fare at the rate of three cents a mile with interest adied. As a matter of fact, the fare at that time was four cents a mile and the company has sent the man a demand for 52 cents in addition.— Ex. Railroads always get what they demand even of legislatures. The reports of the sheriffs of the state for the last fiscal year show that 16,889 prisoners, of whom 1,099 were women, occupied the different county jails. Of these prisoners ~80 were sentenced to states prison, 312 to the state house of correction, 1,174 to the industrial school for boys and 40. to the industrial school for girls. There were 31 escapes during the year. The cost of maintaining tne jails for the year and arresting and conveying prisoners to penal institutions was $187, 908.71. "Bloomer socials" are becoming very popularHhroughout the state but anyone wliVgoes to one with the expectation of seeing any unusual display of hosiery will get left The "bloomers" are not that kind but cut flowers in full bloom.

Does the time at which the sleep is obtained, provided it is sufficient in amount, make any change iu the result? In brief, is there any truth iu the old adage that an hour before midnight is worth two after midnight? I had an opportunity to make some study of this subject in my naval service during the late war. On shipboad, as is undoubtedly known to most of you, the ship's company— officers and men alike— stand four-hour watches day and night, and to get the required amount of rest are obliged to get their sleep irregularly; to so arrange it so that the same man shall not be obliged to take early or late watches continuously the "dog watch" of two hours is interpolated, thus adding to the irregularity.

She may be fitting herself for an operatic career. The Philadelphia Press notes that "Lansing, Mich., attributes the falling off in its number of saloons to the bicycles." It is also true that saloons have caused a falling off of bicycles. In his account of the Sharkey-Maher fight Oorbett neglected to state that he wished the police or somebody had stopped another fight in the same roind that was made the last in the New York mill. That's a pretty story that was told to the Sunday-school children at the recent celebration of the bicentennis* at Trinity church In New York. A little chambermaid applied to the bishop for. confirmation, and being asked on what grounds..she based her request she said^ that fhe always swept under the rugs. According to information received at Washington, D. C., an egg famine hatresulted In Cubs from the war. and United States Vice Consul Hyatt at Santiago suggests that there Is an ex cellent market there for a American* eggs. The eggs sell in Cuba for about 4* cents, a dozen. The duties amount te about 10 cents a dozen. Evidence that the world moves war to have been expected from the Universal Postal Congress in Washington. Perhaps the most striking bit of testimony was the decision of Korea to come into the postal union. It is only a few years since Korea was known throughout the civilised world as the "hermit kingdom," but there is nothing hermit-like in this desire of the Koreans. Curse cards are being used in Switzerland and Germany to check profanity. People go about with the cards in their pockets, and whenever they hear bad language present one to the swearer to sign.

Nearly 40,900 • cards have been distributed * in Switzerland, where there are three language* to swear In. Deming, New Mexico, dispatches say: trions time has there heenactivity in the Mex'can cattle trade en now.

HE profession of the law la here introduced, and within two days in the capital city SOB young men joined it, and at this season ' in • various parts of the land other hundreds are taking their diplomas for an illustrious profession, and is it not appropriate that I address such young men from a moral and religious standpoint, as upon them are now rolling the responsibilities of that calling represented in the text by Zenas the lawyer. ! We all admire the heroic and rigorous side of Paul's nature, as when he stands coolly deliberate on the deck of the corn ship while the jock-tars of the Mediterranean are cowering in the cyclone; as when he stands undaunted amid the marbles of the palace, before thick-necked Nero,, surrounded with his twelve cruel lictors; as when we find him earning his livelihood with his own needle, sewing hair-cloth, and preaching the gospel in the interstices; as when we find him able to take the thirty-nine lashes, every stroke of which fetched the blood, yet continuing in his missionary work; as when we find him, regardless of the consequence to himself, delivering a temperance lecture to Felix, the government inebriate. But sometimes we catch a glimpse of the mild and genial side of Paul's nature. It seems that he had a friend who was a barrister by profession. His name was Zenas, and he wanted to see him. Perhaps he had formed the acquaintance of this lawyer in the court-room. Perhaps, sometimes, when he wanted to ask some question in regard to Roman law, lie west to this Zenas, the lawyer. At any rate, he had a warm attachment for the man; and he provides for his comfortable escort and entertainment as he writes to Titus: "Bring Zenas the lawyer." This man of my text belonged to a profession In which are many ardent supporters of Christ and the Gospel. Among them, Blackstone, the great commentator on English law; and Wllberforce, the emancipator; and the late Benjamin F. Butler, attorney general of New York; and the late Charles Chauncey, the leader of the Philadelphia bar; and Chief Justices Marshall, and Tenterden, and Campbell, and Sir Thomas More, who died for the truth on the scaffold, saying to his aghast executioner: "Pluck up courage, man. and do your duty; my neck Is very short; be careful, therefore, and do not strike awry." Among the mightiest pleas that ever have been made by tongue of barrister, have been pleas in behalf of the Bible and Christianity—as when Daniel Webster stood in the supreme court at Washington, pleading in the famous Girard will case, denouncing any attempt to educate the people without giving them at the eame time moral sentiment, as "low, ribald and vulgar deism and Infidelity;" as when Santue} L. Southard, of New Jersey, the leader of the forum ht-hiiu^ay, tttnnA nn tl>» According to the official statistics of commerce the first consignments nt Egyptian cotton coming directly to thevtyOted States were received during m»e. fiscal year 18S4, and amosmtad to 174,146 pounds. From this, email beginning our direct imports sapialy increased until in the fiscal year ISM tihey had reached no lens a figure than MJ^m^pm?^ With the exeeptfesVf* JBiTit. the only cotton-producing coem&z from which the United ooasiderame cotton, Qke the Egyptian, owee its use in this country to certain peculiarities of Quality that make it better fitted for some owp varieties, but neither the Peruvian nor the Egyptian can properly be said to come idto direct competition with our native cottons. As compared with the Egyptian, however, the quantity of Peruvian cotton Imported Is tery •mail. The largest importation over recorded, that for the fiscal year 1st*, •mnuntsd to only 8,41l,«2f platform at Princeton College commencement, advocating the literary excellence of the Scriptures; as when Edmund Burke, in the famous trial of Warren Hastings, not only in behalf of the English government, but in behalf of elevated morals, closed his speech in the midst of the most august assemblage ever gathered in Westminster Hall, by saying: "I impeach Warren Hastings In the name of the house of commons, whose national character he has dishonored; I impeach him in the name of the people of India, whose rights and liberties he has subverted; I impeach him in the name of human nature, which he has disgraced; in the name of both sexes, and of every rank, and of every station, and of every situation in the world, I impeach Warren Hastings." • • • No other profession more needs the grace of God to deliver them in their temptations, to comfort them In their trials, to sustain them It the diaohacge of their duty. While X would have you bring the merchant to Christ, and while I would have you bring the farmdress you now in the words of Paul to Titus: "Bring Zenas the lawyer." By no much as his duties are delicate, and great, by so much does he need Christian stimulus and safeguard. We all become clients. I do not supose there is a man fifty years has been in active life, who has net been afflicted with a lawsuit. Your name Is assaulted, and you .must have legal protection. Your boundary line is invaded, and the courts must reestablish rt Yonr patent is infringed upon, and you must make the offending manufactui-er pay the penalty. Tow treasures are taken, and the thief must be apprehended. You wane to make your will, and you do pot want follow. t&B aiampTi of those who; for the sake of saving $100 from an attorney, imperil $250,000, and keep the generation, following for twenty years quarreling about the estate, until it is all exhausted. You are struck at by an assassin, and you must Invoke for him the penitentiary. All classes of persons in course of time become clients, and therefore they are all interested in the morality of the Christian integrity of the legal profession. "Bring Zenas the lawyer." But how is an attorney decide as to what are the principles by which he should conduct himself In regard to his clients? On one extreme, Lord brougham will appear, saying: "The Innocence or guilt of your client is nothing to you. You are to save your client regardless of the torment, the suffering, the destruction of others. You are to know but one man, in the world— your client. You are to save him though you should .bring your country into confusion. At all hazzards you must .save your client/;. So says Lord Brougham. But no right-minded lawyer could adopt that sentiment. On the other extreme, Cicero will come to you and say: "You must never plead the cause Of a bad man," forgetful of the fact that the greatest villain on earth ought to have a fair trial and that an attorney cannot be Judge and advocate at the same time. It was grand when Lord Erskine sacrificed his attorneygeneralship for the sake of defending Thomas Paine in his publication of his book catted: "The Bights of Man," while, at the same time, he, the advocate, abhorred Thomas Paine's irreligious sentiments. Between these two opposite theories of what is right* what shall, the attorney do? God alone can direct him. To that chancery he must be. appellant and he will get an answer In an hour. Blessed is that attorney between whose office and. the throne of God there is perpetual, reverential, and prayerful communication. That attorney will never make an irreparable mistake. True to the habits of your profession, you Bay: "Cite us some authority on the subject.". Well,' I quote to you the decision of the supreme court of heaven: "If any lack wisdom,let him ask of God, who'glveth to all men liberally, and hpbraideth not, and it shall be given him." There are two or three form's of temptation' to which the legal profession is especially subject The first of all is scepticism. Controversy Is the Ufetisatt business of tftaf occupation. Controversy mar be incidental or accidental with USH but WUn^yOu it tt perpetual; You get so useeVto -pushing the sharp question "Why?" and making unaided reason superior to, the emotions, that the religion.of Jeatte.Chriet,! •Vhieh .is n?slmple matter of fajtb, and above human reason', although not con- i tracy to it, has but little chance with ! some of you, A brilliant orator wrote a.hook,' oh the first.page of wklch he announced this sentiment:. "An honest God; la the noblest work of man!" Scepticism is the mightiest temptation of the legal profjassfpn, and that nian who can stand in that profession, resisting all solicitations to Infidelity, and can be' as brave as George Briggs, of Massachusetts, who stepped from the gubernatorial chair to the missionary convention, to plead the cause of a dying race; then on his way home from the convention, ^» a cold day, took off his warm cloak and threw it oyer the shoulders of a thinly clad missionary, saytngi "Take that and wear it, k will do you more good than It will me;" or-, «yta«r the Wen »w t-ofsacred day. My Intimate anw^amemted^ - g W Q »»LV-tgW friend, the late Judge Ncljiop, In-his * - '''' - ' « * * interesting remlnisceaegs/ tJT HUTU* Choate, says that durinr the J i l t $mr that gentleman- tried in Nam Tirk, taooourt adjqurnhdi • frpiB^'Krlday. until Monday, on account of the 411ness of Mr, Ghoate; but the chronicler says that ©a'the' Intervening Sabath he saw Mr. Choate in the old "Brick Church," > listening >«•,*. thoti Rem, Dr. Gardiner Spring. I do not know whether, on the following,-day, B4tfuA,,OhaaiA wan his cause or lost It; but I do know that his Sabbatic rest did not do him any i harm. Every lawyer la entitled to one day's rest out of seven. If he surrenders that, he robs three—God, his own soul, and his client. Lord Castlereagh and Sir Thomas Romllly were the leaders of the bar In their day. They both died suicides. Wilberforce accounts for their aberration of intellect on the ground that they were unlntermittent in their work, and'they never rested on Sunday. "Poor fellow!" said..Wilberforce, In regard to Castlemaghi "Poor feLLowJ it was nonrpbservanoe of the Sabbath.'' Chief Justice Hale says: "When I do not properly keep the' Lord's day,r all the rest of the week Is unhappy and unsuccessful., in my worldly employment." 1 quote to-day from the highest statute book in the universe: "Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy." The legal gentleman who breaks that statute may seem for awhile to be advantaged; but in the long run, the men who observe this law of God will have larger retainers, vaster Influence, greater professional success than those men who break the statute. Observance of the law of God pays not only spiritually and eternally, but it pays in hard dollars, br bank bills,- Another powerful temptation of the legal profession is to artificial stimulus. No brifc except those who have addressed audiences knows about the nervous exhaustion that sometimes tomes afterward. The temptation to strong drfnk approaches the legal profession at that very point. Then a trial is coming on. . Through the illventilated court room, the barrister's health has been depressed for days and for weeks. He wants to raUy his energy. He is tempted to presort to-artificial stimulus.. It Is either, to get. himself up, or let .himself dawn, that khis temptation comes upon him-' The flower of the American bar, ruined in reputation and ruined in estate, said in his last moments: "This Is the end. I am dying on a borrowed bed, covered \Yi#i a hprrow.e£ sheej, in a^house built by public charity. Bury me under that treX ir> the mWdle of "the field, th/»t f may hot be crowded;'T always like Judge John McLean, who can step from the supreme court room of the United "States on to the" auulvemaiy platform. of the American Sunday School Union, Ks most powerful orator— deserves congratulations and encomium. Oh, men of the legal profession, let me beg of you to quit asking questions in regard to religion, and begin believing. The mighty men of your profession. Story, and Keht, and Mansfield, became Christians, not through their .heads, but through their hearts. "Except ye become as a little child, ye shall In no wise enter the kingdom of God.** If you do not become a Christian, Oh, man of the legal profession, until you can reason this whole thing out in regard to God and Christ and the immortality of the soul, yon will never become a Christian at all. Only believe. "Bring Senas the lawyer." Another mighty temptation for the legal profession is Sabbath breaking. The trial has been going on for ten or fifteen days. The oriOnee is all in. It is tatnrdny night The Judge's gavel fails on the 4eskv and he says:, "Crier, adjourn the court until' tan o'clock Monday morning." On Monday morning the counsellor Is to sum up er to Chrift. and while I would have I the case. Thousands of dollars, yea, you bring the mechanic to Christ, l a d tne reputation and life of his client may depend upon the success of his plea. How will he spend the intervening Sunday? There Is not one lawyer out of a hundred that can withstand the temptation to break the Lord's day under such circumstances. And yet, if he hurts his own soul. WTmiy my brother, you cannot do before twelve o'clock Saturday night, or after twelve o'clock Sunday night, God does not want you to do at all. Besides that, you want the twenty-four hours of Sabbath rest to give you that electrical and magnetic force which will be worth more to you before tne jury than all the elaboration of your case on the have been prpwded." Xnbthef powerfuf temptation of the legal profession is to allow the absorbing duties .of the profession to shut out thought* orlne great "future. Vou know veVy ^eW*thaf you whd^ have it dftetV tried others, will aft*** a while be out oh trial yourselves. Death Wilt serve o n t o u a writ of- ejectment, and yW» win be pur off these earthly premises. On that* day; all the affairs of your fife will be presented in a "bill of particulars."

The convention wa* organised with the temporary officers — Chairman, Ulrlc Sloane; secretary,'W. A.

Bryan as the leader of the silver cause for 1900. A large gold cross' Wis' carried into the hall and ' caused an immense display of enthusiasm.

Inquiries were made on every side, advertisements inserted in the local newspapers, without the slightest result; no one came forward to give any Information, But by this time the ministers mind was Quite made up.

N A B R I G H T morning of early s p r i n g , between sixteen and' seventeen years after t h e e v e nts described In the first Chapters of this story, ' a goldenhaired young girl /might have been seen tripping down the High street of the market town of Dumfries. Her dress was prettily if net over fsshjonshly cut, a straw hat "No, Marjorle.

"So am I; we can go together. Good* by till thenr ' Aad with a warm squeese of the hand the young man walked away. Marjorle stood looking after him for a moment with a pleasant smile; then Bhe turned and walked down the atreet. She had not many yards to go before she paused before a dlngy-lookiug house, on the door of which was a brass plate with the inscription: M. LEON CAfUSSIDIERE, , Professor of Languages. She rang the bell, and the door was opened almost immediately by a Scotch servant in petticoat and short gown, who greeted her with a familiar smile. Answering the smile with a friendly nod, Marjorle tripped along the lobby and knocked at an inner door, which stood ajar. A clear, musical voice, with an unmistakable foreign accent, cried, "Come in," and she entered. The room was a plainly furnished parlor, at the center-table of which a | young man sat writing. The table was littered with' writing material*, books, and journals, and in the window recess was another table, also strewn with books. The young man, who was smoking a cigarette, looked up as Majorle entered. "Ah, is it you, Mademoiselle Marjorle!" he exclaimed, smiling pleasantly. "I dtd not expect you so early, and I was just smoking my cigarette. You do not mind the smoke? No? Then, with your permission, I will smoke 9.»/' :-:..- ,,.. . . . . . . ....

"Call me not 'monsieur,' but -Monsieur Leon.' 'Monsieur' is so formal— so cold." "Monsieur Leon." ''That is better. Now answer me, if you please. You have no father, no mother?" . The girl's eyes filled with tears. "No, monsieur " "Monsieur Leon." "No, Monsieur Leon," "Ah, that is sad—sad to be an orphan, alone in the world!

She goes to her family physician and tells him a story, but notibe whole story.

StUl, we cannot blame the w o mess, iorit is very embarrassing to detail some of the eyinjK teens of her suffering, even to hev naraily physician. ItxWas for this reason that years ago Mrs, Lydia B.

No physician in the world has had such a training, or has such an amount of information at hand to assist in the treatment of all kinds of female ills, from the simplest local irritation to the most complicated diseases of the womb. This, therefore, is the reason why Mrs. Pinkham, in her laboratory at Lynn, Maim., is able to do more for the ailing women of America than the family physician.

"We might as well have supper,'.* she said. "Your f a t h e r . prob'ly won't be back till late/' . Fred and Polly 1 drew up their chairs, and Grandmother Melton brought a steaming bowl of mush from the stove and dished it t&to two smaller bowls. 'Tm hungry as a bear," observed Fred, between mouthfuls* "I think tt's a shame we have to go so far to school. There isn't a single boy or girl in Springvllle that has to go half so far as we do." "I don't see why father doesn't moye down there," complained Polly, pouring more of the rich yellow milk over her mush; "he could get to his work just as well, and It would be ever so much pleasanter than this lonesome place." "You must remember that your father isn't a rich matt," answered Grandmother Melton, gently. "He owns this cottage, and if he moved he would have to reut another home, and perhaps he couldn't sell this one." The Meltons had only been in their new home since the summer before. Both Fred and Polly bad enjoyed It very much Indeed during the pleasant warm weather o f August and September. Then the wide, swift Mississippi had gleamed through the willows and there had been unlimited boating and swimming and fishing. But with the coming of winter the roads choked full of snow and ice, and the winds swept up the river sharp and cold, and It was a dreary, lonesome walk of four miles to school at Springvllle. As the winter progressed they bad complained more and more, and now' for a week, owing to the spring freshets, Polly had been unable to go at alii and Fred was compelled to make a long detour oyer the bluffs to avoid the lagoons In the river bottoms. ' "They'll ail get ahead of me," Polly had sobbed; "and rtan't pass my examinations." That morning Father Melton had gone up the river to 'help watch the levees. Reports had been coming fMm St. Paul, ^t. X,oul8, Cairo and otfter points farther up the great river that the water was rising rapidly'. The levees must be watched' night and day to prevent breaks. On leaving his home that morning Mr. Melton had told Fred that he would be back before darlt, aad. that there was no danger to fear from the water. All his neighbors had told him that his cottage waa high enough to be safe, even in the greatest goods, - • • "It's after 9 o'clock now," said petty, as she arose from the table; "I wonder where father is." "I'd go out aad watch for him ti it wasn't raining BO hard," said Fired, and then he Looked around toward the doorway, anxiously. He caught his breath suddenly. Then he half rose from the table and pointed at the floor.- Grandmother Melton dropped her fori noisily on her plate and her eyes followed the direction indicated by Fred's finger. Polly sat still and gazed at the other two, wondering what it all meant There on the floor, crawling from the arses: under the doer, was a dark wriggling ohjftfit At first Fred had dtement seized the first t h i s * that came ^ 0 band—grandmothex'p rockingchair— and struggled up; the stairs with it. "We'll need clothing more'n anything else," called Grandmother Melton. Fred ran back. The floor of the cottage was now entirely covered with' water. He splashed1 through it and seised all the clothing, coats and Jackets be could carry. Polly bravely wiped away her teartvand when <P*sti brought the loads to the stairway she ran with them to the bedroom where Grandmother Melton was sitting. B F this time the building bed begun to shake and quiver as the waU»tbaat against It "She's going soon," shouted Fred. "I'm afraid the water will reach v* bp here," suggested Grandmother Melton. Fred looked up. The celling was low, and just above him there had bedn an old trap-door, now nailed up. Instantly Fred seized the ax and burst it open. Above they could see the dark sky and the rain coming down in steady torrents. Fred piled a trunk on top of the table and climbed out on the roof. He couldn't see far, but he conld hear the roaring of th« water from every direction. His heart sunk; he felt sure that they all would be drawled. Suddenly something thumped heavily against the side of the build log. and the next instant the front end of tho room went up and grandmother and Polly slipped down toward the rear end. Fred narrowly escaped be lag hurled off the roof. ?> "We're going! , We're going!" screamed Polly. "We're just on* the foundation," answered Fred, as bravely as he could. Then ha swung back down into the bedroom and helped Grandmother Melton and1 Polly up through the trapdoor to the roof. He covered them up as well as he could' and told them to cling to the ridgepole whatever might happen. Then he ran down for a coil of clothesline. This he tied firmly to the window at one end of the bedroom, carried the other end up through the trap-door, along the roof and dropped it over the eaves. Down he went again and fastened It to the other window frame. It would do to hold to. Hardly had he finished his work when Jolt St came to a stanrtartH, l h * j could hear the Umbers strain and creak and the current of the s i r e n about I t bat It did s e t ffcove, "Well, we're anchored.- eel "I suppose we're out somewhere en a sandbar 1a'the' Mississippi.'* "Do yen think we have reached M e m p h u r asked Polly, anxiously. !

By this time the rain had ceased and the moon shone out Jalntly through the clouds, "There's lights," cried FpUy, Joyfeily, Sure enough, on.the hill, not aucb a great distance away, they could see many lights gleaming out over thf water. Nearer, there were other lights moving sbput, as if la boats. "It's Memphis." .said Polly,-and then their all shouted at the top of their voices.' But no one heard them. The water roared too loudly. 80 they sat Jof hours gnd hours—it seemed to them— until the gray light of morning began to break in the east. - They strained their eyes as it grew brighter and- looked off acrosB the gray flood of water with its scattering heaps of wreckage to the town on the hill.

"It isn't Memphis,* said Fred, with 'a little joyful ring in 'his vote*' Chat made Polly and her grandmother leob around quickly; "it's SpringvUte.* "Springvllle!" j ' And Springvllle it was.

The original, in his own hand, was put into an envelope and sealed, with his arms. The officer was about to use a wafer, but Nelson said: "No; send for sealing wax and candle." Some delay followed, owing to the man's having had his head taken off by a balL "Send another messenger for the wax." said the admiral, when informed of this; and when, the wafers were again suggested he simply reiterated the order. A large quantity of wax was used, and extreme care taken that the impression of the seal should be perfect. Col. Stewart asked: "Why, under so hot a fire and after so lamentable an accident, have you attached so much importance to a circumstance apparently trifling?" "Had I made use of a wafer," replied Nelson, "the wafer would have been still wet when the letter waa presented to the crown prince; he would .have inferred that the letter was sent off in a hurry, and that we bad some very pressing reasons for be"' •% In a hurry. The wax told ne tales.' It was the same sagacious regard to effect which possibly dictated the byplay of refusing to see Parker's signal of recall.—The Century.

The Nebraska legislature recently repealed the bill passed twe> years ago placing a premium upon the destruction of the Russian thistle, says the San Francisco Chronicle. A few years ago these thistles seemed to spring up everywhere in defiance of all laws govg other vegetation and many agriculturists were alarmed lest the weed should drive out more valuable but less thrifty vegetation. legislation waa advocated to check the growth of the thistle and In many Btates laws similar to the one In Nebraska were passed. But despite all claims of the federal agricultural department that the thistle was something to be dreaded, and that If not checked it would destroy all the western part of the United States as far as farming was concerned the reverse has proved true. The rank growth appeared to die in one or two seasons as mysteriously as it came and the surrounding vegetation suffered little. Than in some sections the dried weed was chopped up fine and fed to cattle with satisfactory results and In other seotions the farmers gathered the thistles Into large piles and burned the bunches for fuel ki their homes. Then several thrifty farmers made bales of thistles and sent them to the nearest mills to be tried as fuel. They were a great success and several contracts were made by Nebraska mllla for all that could be supplied. Spotted f U s Fun.

In the days of the "old army" on the frontier, when military posts were sometimes hundreds of miles from any civilized place, there was little to do In the way of amusement in the winter time when the post was snowbound, and it was then that the reputation the army has for card playing and drinking was gained, says the Cincinnati Enquirer. And It is true that a great deal of both was done at that time. It was in these days that an event transpired that showed that the principal actor had the courage of his convictions, and that he was most certainly born under a lucky star. It was after a very "wet" stag dinner party, and all had partaken most freely of the wine; and, strange as it may seem, the subject that came up for discussion was the Mohammedan religion. The Musselmans believe in fate. To them a man's fate is written above, and the time of his death is set and nothing can advance it. Well, this belief had been discussed long and earnestly. The proa and cons had been gone over at length, till one officer* wanted to know what use was reason, If every one was born with a tag of destiny attached. One officer finally arose and said there was no use discussing the matter any further—the only way was to make a practical test of the question, and that he would give himself up as a subject. Could a man wilfully dispose of his life when the fatal moment had been chosen at his birth from above? He could get no one to try the experiment on him. Finally a wager was made. "Who will pay you if I lose?" said the subject, as he drew his pistol and showed that it was loaded. He plaoed the pistol against his temple and pulled the trigger. The pistol missed fire. "A joke!" yelled the crowd. The fatalist smiled and, recocklng the pistol, aimed it with a steady hand at th° clock on the wall. He fired and the bullet crashed through the canter of the dial. "Apologise to me now," he said. "I have won the bet. I always believed In fate." Stirring Events at hand. Yon win want the vet? late** re—the moot accurate report* to fee ofc~ talaed.

CLEVELAND LINE OF STEAMERS 25?; TO Queer F a c t s About Air. The celebrated chemist of the sixteenth century who argued that, it would be Impossible for ua to live uu the earth's surface if the atmosphere shoujd suddenly increase to twice its present thickness could not have been far wrong after all—that is, if the experiments of Dr. Arndtt are to be taken as conclusive. In his observations on M ..— - - - - * - . - . - - * • » . _ ^ I atmospheric pressure at the bottom of T P " W A O O N A R T I F I C I A L , the deep mining shafts of Europe, Prof. Arnott has found that the change between the readings of a barometer at the bottom of a 4,000 foot shart and one at the surface is great enough to warrant him in making the statement that air at the bottom of a shaft twenty miles deep would be as dense as water. Figuring on the same ratio, he finds thftt if a hole could be sunk forty miles into the bowels of the earth the density of the air at the bottom would be as great as that of quicksilver.— St Louis Republic.

The starting place was the Bonny Jean Comatewui ton am establishment Raid to hears been much patronized by the poet Burns during his residence In the couth of-Scotland; and hither Marjorle, after leaving her tutor, proceeded without delay. "'' " Th»v.wagonette was about to start; and Marjorle hastened to take her place., The vehicle was drawn by two powerful horses, and could accommodate a dosea passengers Inside and one more on the seat of the driver; but today< there were only a few goingthree.- farmers and their wives, a sailor on his way home from sea.^nd a couple [ »e r beautiful eyes as she replied: She Jooked at blm steadfastly, while his face trained scarlet. "I know you love me, Johnnie, as if you were my own brother," , . "More than that, Marjorle—more, a thousand tymes!" the young man con* tinned passionately. "Ah! It has been on my mind .a thousand times to tell you how much. Ever since we were little laaa and, Jad you've been the one jthought,-and dream of my life; and if I've striven hard and hoped to become a painter, it has all been for love of ypu. I know my folk are poor, and that in joiner respects I'm.not a match fQr you,, who have been brought up aa a lady, but there will be neither peace nor happiness for me In this world unless you consent to become my wife." As he continued to speak she had become more and more surprised and more surprised and startled. The sudden revelation of what so many people knew, but which she herself had never suspected, came upon her as a shock of sharp pain; so that when he ceased, trembling and contused by the vehemence of his own confession, she was quite pale, and all the light seemed to have gone out of of female farm servants who had come in to the spring "hiring." All these had taken their seats; but John Sutherland' stood by the trap welting to Y hand Marjorle In. She stepped in and took her place* and -tin*' young man found a seat at net side, when the -driver too* the 'teipfc and mounted to his seat, and with waves and smiles from the Misses Datrymple, who kept the Bonny Jean Inn, and a cheer from -a very small boy on the pavement away they went. At last the vehicle reached the ^cross-roads where John and -Merjorte were to aligtyr. Ther leapt 9»t* aid jmrsued their way on foot, the young man carrying . a small <s*md-val!se, MarjorleaUlfcboldiae) her school books underneath her arm.

Yet here's the^ Annan beneath us, the same a« •ever, and it will be the same when we're both eld—always the same." Marjorle turned her head away, and &er eyes were dim with tears. "Come away," she said; "I, cannot bear to look at It! Whenever I watch the Annan I seem to see my mother's browned face looking up at me oat of the quiet water." The young man drew closer to her, and gently touched her hand. "Don't greet,-MarJorteT'' he mur^f-ly, mur^d, softly;- "year woor assihijiw at peace with God," "Tee, Johnnie, I ken that," answered the gtrl In a broken voice; "but It's sad, sad, to have neither kith nor kin, d and to remember the way my mother "Don't talk like that!

"Angry with you, Johnnie?" she replied, smiling again, and giving him both hands. "As if I could be! But you must be very good, and not speak of it again." She disengaged herself and moved slowly across the bridge. He lifted his valise, and followed her anxiously. "I know what it is," he said sadly, as they went on side by side together. You think I'm too poor, and you would be ashamed of my folk." She turned her head and gazed at him In mild reproach. "Oh, how can you think so hardly of me? I love your mother and father as if they were my own; and as for your being poor, I shouldn't like you at all if yon were rich.

Seated oa a chair close, to him was a girl of about fourteen, draesnd lathe ordinary petticoat and. short gown, and reading ekAtf from M hook. At the other end of the room, where there was an open ingle- and a nre; an elderly matron was cooking. Suddenly there was an exclamation from the latter, who was the first to perceive the entrance of the newcomers. "Johnnie!H she cried, holding out her arms; and in another moment she had folded her son in her embrace, and was kissing him fondly. , \ The young girl roee, smiling, book Is band; the man teased his weaving, but jemalhed quite1 still in his chair. "Yes; here' I am, mother; antf I've brought company, as you see!" "Hoo's a' wi' ye, Marjorlefr cried the matron, holding out her hand. "It's a treat to see your bonny face. Sit ye down by the fire!" "Is that my son?" said the weaver,, in a deep, musical voice, hut without > turning his head. His infirmity was now apparent—he was stone blind. John Sutherland walked across the room, gave his slater a passing kies, and placed his hand affectionately on the old man's shoulder. "It's yoursel', my lad! I ken you aoo. I feel your breath about me! What way did ye no write to tell us you were on the road name?" "I was not sure until the last mo* ment that I could start so soon, but I jumped into the train last night, and down I came." "Who's alang wl' you?" asked the Weaver, smiling. "I'll wager it's Marjorle Annan!" "Yes, Mr. Sutherland," answered Marjorle, crossing the room and joining the little group. "I met Johnnie in Dumfries, and we came home together." The weaver nodded his head gently, and the smile on his face lightened into loving sweetness. "Stand close, side by side," he said, "while I tak' a long look at baith o' ye." "While you-look at us!" echoed Marjorle in surprise. "Ay, and what for no? DInna think, because my bodily ©en are blind, that 1 canna see weel wl' the een o' iny soul! Ay, there you stand, lass and lad—my boy Whn and Marjorle Annan; baith fair, baith wi' blue een; John prood and glad, and Marjorle bjuahlng by/ hm aide;, and I see what you .canna sea a light all roand and abune,ye, coming oot o' the golden gates, a' .Heaven! Stand still a wee and hark! Do ye hear nothing? Ay, but J can .hear! A sound like kirk-bells ringing; tar ewa'." As he spoke he sat with shining face, as if he indeed gased on the sweet vision he was describing- Marjorle grew red as fire, and cast down her eyes; for she was only too conscious of the old man's meaning, and, remembering what had taken place that day, she felt constrained and almost annoyed. John Sutherland shared her'uneasiness, and to divert the conversation into another channel, he spoke to his young sister, who stood smiling close by. Marjorle, uneasy lest the old man's dreamy talk should again take an awkward turn, was determined to make her escape. "Good-bye now. Mr. Sutherland/* she said, taking his hand In hers, "I must run home; Mr. Lorraine will be expecting me." And before any one could say a word to detain her, she waa crossing IBe7 threshold of the cottage. Young Sutherland followed her as far aa the garden gate. "Marjorle," he said, "I hope you're not angry?" "No, no." she replied; "but I wish your father would not talk aa if we were courting. Johnnie. It makes me feel so awkward, and you know it la not true." "Old folk will talk," said John Sutherland, "and father only speaks oot of the fullness of his heart. He Is vary fond of you, Marjorle!"

MICHIGAN NEWS BRIEFLY TOLD FOR MICHJPANUERS. rhe Naval Beterves Take Their Annual Crata«—»Natlan»l Leases Q* Benvbllean Clubf In Convention at Detroit t-*tJa.«la Saw Remember* the H, N, G. ItapabUcant From {Everywhere. Detroit, the star convention city of Uncle Sam's domains, has just entertained another mighty throng. Over 9,000 visitors were attracted to the city iby the annuel convention of the National League 6f Republican clubs. Of course the principal feature of the convention was the speeches and the election pn*cer«, hut . tjil* was enough 4 o maintain a lively interest. Gov. tNagree delivered a rattling address of 'welcome in behalf of Michigan, the *tate where the Republican party was *Ort; CoL H. M. Duftleld welcomed t h e delegates In behalf of the City of 4fce Straits; and E. N. Diugley, of Kalamaxoo, offered a welcome iu the name e f the Michigan League of Republican «lubs, of which he is president. Then President D. D. Woodmansee gave the annual address to the league.. Other speeches were made by Hon. Charles Emery Smith, of the Philadelphia Press; Hon. Webster Davis, assistant secretary of interior, and ex-Senator Arthur Brown of Utah. The second day was considerably more lively. The report of the ere* dentlals committee showed two colored delegations from Louisiana and a settlement was not reached without considerable excited oratory. The report of the resolutions committee reaffirmed the platform of the St. Louis Republican convention, and extended sympathy to Cuba and to the striking coal miners and other laboring men of the land in their peaceful struggles for living wages. D. Augustus Straker, •colored, a prominent Detroit lawyer, snade a strong kick because there was n o anti-lyhching resolution and raised «uch a rumpus that the committee reported such a resolution. The election •of a president of the national league was the next exciting event with six •candidates as follows: A. M. Higgins, •of Indiana; L. J. Crawford, ot Kentucky; Grant Fellows, of Michigan; Thos. McEwan, of New Jersey; JAred IV. Fleitz, of Pennsylvania, and Marion* PoUasky, of Illinois. The roll-call proceeded without interruption until s Illinois1 vote was ealled for and an attempt was made to cast a solid vote lor Fleitz. Then there was an exciting scene, the vote was challenged nod finally it was settled by calling ' the roll of delegates from that state. As the vote proceeded through the states it was seen that Crawford was i n the lead and one state after another changed their votes for him so that by ' the close of the roll-call he was practically elected, but without waiting for the vote to be announced Fleitz, the Kentuckian's nearest opponent, moved to declare "Hon. L. J. Crawford, of Kentucky, the unanimous Ohoice oi the convention," and it went with a rush. i t was no "job at all to elect a secretary , although there were plenty of would-be candidates for the position. 1C J. Dowling, of Minnesota, was reelected with only Ohio to oppose him. Prank J. Higgins, of New Jersey, was •chosen treasurer by acclamation. rflmsLh* wjtnyfrt the convention for IT. Marquette'* Statue Unveiled. A splendid brou*e rep ties of Trentanove's statue of Fr, Marquette, the Jesuit who was the first white man to set foot on Michigan soil, was unveiled at Marquette with interesting ceremonies in the presence of 1,000 persons. At suurise 45 guns were fired from the XT, S. revenue cutter Greshara. At the unveiling 13 more were fired. Col. B. S. ' Kaufman, .officer of the day, led the procession, a feature of whioh was 50 Chippewa Indians in war-paint and riding horseback. The exeraises at the statue opened with the singing of "Columbia."

V l ( Orangemen Celebrate at Port Huron* The 207tu anniversary of the battle of the Boy a e was celebrated at Port Huron by Orangemen of Michigan and western Ontario in an elaborate manner. Over 30,000 visitors thronged the streets and about 8,000 were in the parade, which marched to Pine Grove park where appropriate exercises were held. W . J . H. Trayaor, of Detroit, was marshal of the day and chairman of the exercises which were opened by Mayor Boynton with one of his characteristic speeches of welcome. It was responded to by State Grand Master C. H. Lloyd. Other .speeches were made by well-known Michigan and Canadian Orangemen. After the speaking athletic sports were the order of the day, and were largely attended. The celebration was conceded by all present to be the largest ever held in the state, and although the crowd was large, there was no disturbances whatever. A Murder Near Ionia, Moses Walker, a bachelor, who lived two miles west of Ionia, opposite the state house of correction, was shot and instantly killed by Wesley Bennett, a farm hand on an adjoining farm. Bennett had been keeping company with.Lydia Vivian, Walker's niece, and they had just returned from the CU5. The woman jumped out of the buggy just as Walker came out into the road. He ordered Bennett away, having previously objected to his presence, and is alleged that he threw a piece of brick at the horse. Bennett refused to go and drew a revolver from- which he fired *hree shots at Walker, all of which took effect, the third striking the heart. Bennett skipped hojme and was changing horses, apparently, ^for flight, when the sheriff arrested him. Bennett was promptly arraigned and his examination was set for July 22, the justice refusing to allow balL MICHIGAN NEWS ITEMS. .next year. .mehlsan Naval Beeervee at Work.

The Pittsburg district was generally conceded to he prlnclpaj battleground for the coal miners' strlUel T h e operators nad hopes of keeping-several thousand men at work therej fait they have been deeply disappointed. Only one company the New York a^d Cleveland Gas Coal Co. was able to continue operations with about 1,500 saen and the strike officers are preparing a plan to bring them out. The situation in Cleveland over the coal strike is becoming desperate. The railroads are growing bolder in confiscating coal, and those who depend upon a regular supply are becoming anxious. The schooner B. W. Parker, of Detroit, has been delayed In Cleveland over a week owing to the action of the Erie railway in taking away over 30 cars of coal which the vessel was about to load. Several fueling firms have nearly exhausted their supply and the Pennsylvania, <fe Ohio Fueling Co. has suspended business altogether in Cleveland. There is considerable fuel in the upper lakes, and some of it may have to be brought down. It is generally admitted now that the coal dealers and mine operators were very poorly prepared for a strike. The great plant of the Cleveland Steel Co. has closed owing to the lack of fuel. A number of other plants are preparing to shut down. The strikers won a great victory in the Wheeling «& Lake/~Erie/district Col. Myron T. Herrick, (the receiver for the W. & L. R„railwayK has been informed that only one man went to work at Dillon vale, where this railrotfd people had decided to make a test, and where they had secured a force of;U.S. marshals to protect the miners; who would go to work. The full force of this intelligence can be appreciated when it is stated that Cleveland manufacturers and shippers expected that If matters came to the very worst the district covered by the W. <fe L. E. would supply whatever eoal was needed. This means to Cleveland now a practical tie-up. Notes on the MInere' 91» Strike. The first week of the coal miners' strike closed with a total of 110,000 men idle, divided as follows: Pennsylvania, L6.0O0S Ohio,; £8,000( Indiana, 9.000; Illinois, 27,000; West Virginia, V>9P; Other states 24.000. The loss .in wage* for t h e week, figuring 70 cents per day each, would be »462,000, These men would have mined 924,000 tons and figuring a profit of 25 per cent to the mine owner he is a loser by »222,000. The railroads transporting coal to the lakes have lost, »000,000 worth of business. Add to all this the loss in wages to railroad men, dock men, vessel employes, coal handlers, e t c , and the loss to the country by the first week of the strike is nearly »1,300,000.

A Washington telegram says: The administration has taken steps to keep its grip on Hawaii. Any aggressive interference on the part of Japan will result in the landing of marines and the hoisting of the American flag with or without the ratification of the pending annexation treaty. Rear Admiral Beardsley has been given instructions empowering him to act at the first aign pf aggression on the part of Japan or trouble of any kind with which the local authorities are not able to cope. The Bennington, now on the California (Coast, is being. fitted place of the old Honolulu. - There is no uneasiness among the friends of annexation in congress about the Hawaiian situation. Neither the attitude of Ja*pan nor the persistent opposition of the sugar trust, i t is believed, can weaken the position of the administration, although It is not expected that the annexation treaty will be ratified at this session.

On sugar the Senators are holding out especially for the Senate schedule. The House i s just as firm for its rates, and is also standing stiffly for the House schedule - on wool, contending that the Senate rates would be most oppressive on* manufacturers. Lumber has been in dispute and the House conferees have insisted that their rate of »2 on white pine must be accepted and they have been supported in this by Senator Burrows, of Michigan. The Senators say that if the House lumber rate Is restored it will provoke a long discussion in the Senate and that no one can tell when the the bill would g e t oat again. Stvnw matting, burlaps, cotton t|es and, other items iwbteb were puteqjjT pn the fr^e list by the Senate, nfeV with great hostility from .the House, conferees, and so f^r nothing in the way of a (Mmntomise by t h e Senators b^a* been accepted.

LORRAINE was now long -past the great jclimaterlc, and breaking feat; Indeed, so Infirm had he become that he had more than once thought of retiring from the ministry altogether. Though his body was frail, however, his Intellect, was as bright as ever, and when Marjorie entered the study he was busily engaged in reading one of his favorite- books. He looked up with his kindly smile as his foster-daughter appeared. "Is it you, my bairn?" he said, aa he came over and kissed her. "Welcome home again! Though you have been scarcely a week away, I have missed you sorely, and have been counting the days till your return." For some months past, I should now explain, Marjorie had been accustomed to stay at a ladles' school in the neighboring town from Monday till Friday of every week, returning each Friday afternoon, ahd remaining till the following Monday. ThiB arrangement had been found necessary, a s it was impossible for the girl to complete her simple education at home, and a s the distance was too great for tar to g o to an<l fro daily without inconvenience. "And what news have you got from the town?" continued the minister, as Marjorie, holding his hand J» hers, sank into a chair at his aide. "How is M1&3 Carruthers? and how do you get along with your studies?" "Miss Carruthers «exrds ber compliments, and as she is-called away to Edinburgh to see h*r # c k sister I am to bide at home tor a week. A whole week, Mr. Lorraine, and i n May-time! Ob, I am so gladT "So am I, my baton," said the minister, "A week's rest will do me good, too, I hope, tor I fcove been far from well since you went .away. I had one of my old attacks on Tuesday, and have been obliged t o >keep In the houoe." "You will be tetter mow," said Marforte. "I will trarae yon!" "Ay, ay> and the eight of your face raid the sound o f your voice will do me more good than the 'doctor. By the way, my bairn, I had one here today Inquiring after you, and she will be here again this evening." "I know! Miss Hetherington, of the C a s t l e r "Yes, Mlsa Hetherington. It i s ntrange, my baton, how much interest the good lady tatees in you—she who cares so little for any other living thing; and yet, after all, it Is not strange, for mjr Marjorie is a favorite with high and low." The girrs faoe grew troubled as she answered: "I hope, Mr. Lorraine, she won't be asking me up t o the Castle; I feel so lonely there, and she—she frightens eel—She has eucn strange ways, and the house is .an awful place." "Well, well, ycoi must he carerul not to offend her* l o r s h e ie a true friend." "I know she is very 'rich and good, tno, bat for all that I cannot bear to be alone in her coaapany. 1 wonder why she likes to hare me! She aits in her arm-chair looking at me for hours together, till soatetisnes I feel as if I could scream oat aad mm away!" She is * strange woman," said the minister, thoughtfully; "hut you have no reason to fear her. fine takes a great interest in yon, 4md i n .all that concerns yon." "I know that, but-'* "Her eoeomtrlcities a*e emly jmt on, I think, to conceai a heart ttiatds truly kindly. Yoa must try to burner her, my bairn. Not that I womld have you shape your conduct toward aer toy any sordid hope of future gala; no, no, that would be unworthy; bat i t Is well, after all to have so powerful a friend, should anything happen to ders. it's so hard to tell whether a thing i s masculine or feminine, and 1 wonder how the French 'folks themselves can tell. I'm afraid I'll never learn the French rightly." "I could never master It myself, though, after fell, maybe, I never fairly tried; it's a queer kind of tongue, like the chirping of birds, I'm thinking. What like is your teacher?" "Monsieur Caussidlere? A handsome gentleman; with black hair aad black eyes." "A young man* Marjorie?" "Not old, but very grave and sad a s if he had had much trouble; and I think he has, for he is an exile and cannot return to his native land." "Has he not other scholars?" he asked quietly. "Only myself out of our school. I go to his house for my lesson every afternoon. And he is very, very kind! He would scarcely take the fees. He said " But here Marjorie paused and blushed, for she suddenly remembered Caussidiere'B words and ardent looks of admiration. ~Well, what did he say?" "He said he was ashamed to take money for teaching, and then—then talked about France, and how he longed to return, and how sad it was to be an exile. That was all!" Mr. Lorraine did not question any further, but seemed plunged in fhought. "By the way, Marjorie," he said, after a pause, "you know that your school fees are paid by Miss Hetherington?" Marjorie nodded. "It was her wish that you should be taught French. For my own part, I never thought much of either the language or the people, but that may be my prejudice. Miss Hetherington thinks that, every young lady should learn French. Curious, the Interest she takes in you!" There was a noise at the front door, a sound of feet in the lobby. Solomon entered abruptly. "She's outside," he said. "Witt I bring her in?" "Who is outside, Solomon, my man?" "Wha but Mistress Hetherington, frae the Castle. The carriage is at the door, and she's wrangling wi' t h e driver." Mr. Lorraine rose feebly from his chair, while Marjorie nervously put down her cup and saucer and prepared to receive the visitor. "This way, mem!" said Solomon"; and immediately there entered the room a woman of middle height, with snowwhite hair, leaning upon a staff or hand-erutch. She had black piercing eyes, a complexion like alabaster, aad her front teeth projected slightly over her under Up. Though she had the sir of a a old woman and walked with a stoop, ner face had scarcely a wrinkle, and her voice was deep and powerful. MarjoHe sprang up and stood trembling.

"I hope not," returned the minister mildly, resuming hie own s e a t "After All, too, Solomon is quite right Johnnie and Marjorie are old friends." "All the parish ken* that," said the lady of the Castle. "Come here, Marjorie, and dinna be feared—I'll no eat you! Look me in the face!

And she held out her hand to Mr. Lorraine, a s if beseeching him to take her part "Really, Miss Hetherington," he said, "Marjorie is a child, aad I am sure such nonsense as you speak of has never entered her head." "Nonsense, is It?" retorted the lady, with the same low, harsh laugh as before. "Weel, it's the nonsense to which a' folk come early or late, gentle and simple, and trust me to ken better than either you or that Idiot Solomon what young lasses are made o'. Do you think Marjorie Annan's made of stane or aim, and doesna ken a fair favored lad from a rowan tree or a milk coo?" "I think she Is too young for lovemaking," returned the minister. "Then you think wrang; it's never o'er early for a lassie to begin. As for Johnnie, I'll no say but what he's a decent lad and a modest, and he has talent as weel, the rogue, heaps o' talent, though he's only a weaver's son— eh, Marjorie. has he no?" And as she looked at Marjorie there was no anger in her stern black eyes; rather a sort of. grim-humored sympathy. .Seeing his foster-child's confusion* Mr. Lorraine attempted to give the conversation another turn. "If young Sutherland has developed natural gifts he has you to thank for the opportunity. We all know how kind you have .been to him." "Because I bought two o' hiB pictures," she retorted, with her characteristic and disagreeable laugh. "I gave fifty pound apiece for them, the more fool I. One was a view o' the Castle fsae the south, wi' a cuddle eating thistles in the. foreground—a cuddle as big at a hippopotamus; and the other was Marjorie hersel,' wi' her lap full o* wild flowers, Bitting by the side o' Annan water, and about as like her, by that token, a s it was like Solomon Mucklebackit" "We always considered it an excellent likeness," said Mr. Lorraine, goodhumoredly. "So it was," cried Marjorie impulsively; "everybody said so." "And what everybody said must be true?" demanded the lady, with a sneer. "Weel, likeness or no likeness, the lad has talent, as I said; and if he works hard, maybe he'll be able some fine day to paint a picture. So much for A>hnslie Sutherland. Now we'll come to the business which brought me doon. I want Marjorie to come to me tomorrow and spend, the day." The very proposal which Marjorie dreaded!

She stammered, and blushed, and cast an appealing glance at Mr. Lorraine. "How's this, Marjorie?" he said, gently. "You did not tell me that Johnnie had come back."

In view of the numerous ings to farmers this year warnfrom wheat buyers, to cut the rye out of their wheat, with the alternative of accepting a much lower price for the latter crop, the following related by an Ingham county farmer will be of interest: "In the good old days of dollar wheat I solved this rye question. I heeded the injunction of holy writ and let wheat and tares grow together until the harvest time, and followed it no further but bound the grain altogether in bundles. Then at threshing time I had two extra men with broad ax and block, who cut off the heads of the rye, which always extend a foot or two above the wheat, before threshing. I thus saved rye enough to pay for the extra men, and had an article of wheat so nearly free of rye as to sell for the highest price."—Lansing Review. It W*Mf a Mckel.

Every member of the family reads it and then it is loaned all over the neighborhood to people who are either too poor or too stingy to take the paper. One subscriber said recently that he did wish something could be done to prevent people from borrowing his newspaper. He said his Sunday paper was not at home long enough for him to scarcely look it over. Before night four different families had borrowed his paper and each member of each family had read it through. He said of course he could not refuse to loan them the paper, but he did wish people would subscribe and pay for their own paper.

That necessity is the best teacher seems to be an article ot faith with the great majority of American mothers, who seldom teaeh their daughters even the rudiments ot housekeeping, says the New York Tribune. This Is hardly the fault of either mother or daughter—life is so fertl nowadays— and the time of both parent and child Is so crowded with occupation that neither the one nor the other has the leisure either to learn or to teach. When the girl marries the man of her choice, especially if he is a poor man and they have to begin life simply, she finds herself more ignorant than she would have believed possible about the A, B, C of domestic arrangements; and how to train the inexperienced maid she has engaged to take charge of her little apartment is a veritable puzzle.

"I soon learned that I had no idea which side the glasses went on," said a young wife, telling of her nrat experience In coaching a raw servant. "I did not know whether the forks were turned up or down. When the table was set everything looked hlggletyplgglety and awry, and I could not tell for the life of me what was the matter." A well known writer on domestic economy says that there are three graces which should preside at the table—cleanliness, order and good taste. Everything should be arranged with geometrical correctness. The taste should be In the exact center of the room, with the sides perfectly parallel with the walls. The white canton flannel undercloth sheuld be kept taut by means at each corner of buttons aad eyelet holes. The cloth must have the folds absolutely straight with the table. The forks should be on the left and the knives on the right of the plate; forks and spoons sheuld be turned up, not down; tumblers and wine glasses are at the right and above each plate. S*Tt ceUsj^ with the spoon by them, not la them, and pepper and mustard cruets are arranged in the corner of the table a lit Je beyond the plates. The napkin should be laid on the plate with a roll or piece of bread within Its folds.

The best thing John CalUcott, uhe celo«ed eod^of-the-wortd prophet of Lafayette, lad., can do now is to g o out of the prophesying business without deter. Mr. Csdlleott has been telling a s for fifteen years that the end was earning at certain times, and every time be has disappointed a whole lot of people. John is said to be an excellent plasterer, and we would advise a i m t o stick to his business hereafter and refrain from attempting t o scare rjrooa Thai wiu ;k>i Jtap. , .Hi?: j ^ n c e b f Wales was present at a test whieh has recently been furnished to the office of works, in London, of a non-inflammable wood. A number of distinguished, people were also present. Two oottaftes, thirty feet in height, had been built, similar in all respecU save one, the wood of tbe edifice nearest to the royal pavilion having been treated with a fluid said to render it proof against the fiercest flames. Piled up against these two little houses, on all sides, were heaps of billets of wood and shavings, while the odor of petroleum showed clearly enough that the company furnishing the test had no fear of submitting their product to a severe trial. After the prince had inspected the two buildings the torch was applied. A strong wind swept across the wide open space, and the flames danced and crackled in a way that would have made any one but an enthusiast step back. In twenty minutes the house that had not been treated was enveloped in flames mounting high In the air, and formed a fine subject for the cameras leveled upon it from all polnls. The other structure was charred, and the window panes in It melted like.i so much pewter, but that was all.' A mass of inflammable materials in the inside had not even caught light Ten minutes more and the unprotected cottage fell In. Then the prince essayed to enter the building which had withstood so severe a test. The dojar was opened and he walked up the steps. At this moment a gust of wind drove a cloud of smoke and a sheet, of the flame: still lapping the ootslde df the structure In hls^face. The prince beat a hasty retreat, amid laughter, but a moment later tried again, with better success. Then the heap of combustibles inside the coftage was set alight. In the middle Qf this pile was a box made-wi£h nonflammable wood containing souvenirs. Smoke and flames poured up the chimney, but when the mass had burned itself out the box -was recovered", charred, but unharmed, from the. ashes, and the contents were distributed. The treatment of timber to make ft fire proof consists of removing the air and natural juices from the pores and cells and impregnating these with a solution of flre-resistlag salts and other chemicals. The operation is carried out under great pressure, steam being first used to open the cellB. By means of this new process wood of all kinds can be rendered absolutely non-flammable. The process is net limited to timber of any particular size—boards, planks, joists, wood of all dimensions and of any shapa it can ae prepared with equal stfecess. Although It is soarcely two years sliace the wood thus specially prepared has been offered to the public in the United fltfltA* it h u already been adopted by the navy department of that country for exclusive use in all its ships of every description, and it is also being largely used for public buildings. » > ' * t i k » ' A Cuiooa Boa*. , A curious boat, which goes equally well on land} water* ice andyjiiowM has been designed by Mr. Rasmus Anderson. The machine was originally invented for Arctic exploration, as a substitute for boats and sledges, but ean also be built as a life boat and a yacht and ocean steamer. This boat, it Is said, cannot sink or capsize under any condition, aad it eaa be prapelled by the hands or feet Aft a lifeboat it would be very practical, MM it could be launched-from dry land, and also run up on any beach without injury. As a lifeboat on board ship it can he run off the deck with the smallpoured tick into the dish again, filling in "trough the perforations. Now blotting paper has superseded this old* time affair and has become an enor-v mous article of manufacture and sale. The bent blotting paper is made of cotton rags, lower grades are made of wood pulp -mixed with some sort of absorbent clay. Clear white blotting paper is by far the best, as dyes injure the absorbent qualities. T h e trade in white blotting paper is nearly fifteen, ^aVes as much as that in all high colors'put together. A great dealr of bloating .paper. is used for advertising purposes, which is a most convenient way of getting one's name before the public.

The paper is rolled and pressed until it is quite firm, then heated by mesne of pipes passing through i t Ksploimtlon In the Antarctic It is stated authoritatively in London that the council of the Ifoyal Geographical society has determined to take upon itself the responsibility of oiganising a private expedition to the Antarctic, and for this purpose an appeal will very shortly be made for funds to equip an expedition on a sufficiently large scale. The British admiralty has promised to assist such an expedition by the loan of instruments and by advice, and it is extremely probable that, although unable to undertake the, whole responsibility of the expedition, the government will make a grant towards the cost of what would undoubtedly be a national enterprise. Latest Doable-Bottom Oake Pan. The latest cake or pie pan is made with a double bottom. The pan itself 13 all in one piece of pressed tin, while the extra bottom Is removable. The use of the double bottom forms a vacuum which keeps the bottom and sides of the cake or pie free so there Is no use of U3lng grease or paper, nor is a knife necessary to remove it from the pan after baking. It is.therefore a nonstlcker. It will not burn or scorch or break the cake to remove It from the pan. There is a simple arrangement for removal which, is not found in any other pan ever made, and that is by an upright wire handle fastened into the center of the upper disk. By gently lifting by this handle the cake easily detaches from the side of the pan and is lifted out whole. It can then be cut right on-the disk as desired without disturbing the eake. The Same Arrangement can be had in a pie pan, which makes it s n improvement over any other pan on the market. OUR BUDGET OF FUN. II il I T SOME GOOD J O K M , OftlOfNAL ' A N D SELECTED. The.

To be able to use what has heretofore been waste material is the object of a great deal of .scientific study and research. Already a number of sorts of fuel have been prepared, and in countries where coal Is high and scarce this prepared material is unite extensively used and gives very good satisfaction.

OBITUARY. On Tuesday morning. July 27,1897 about 7:30 o'clock, occured the death of one of the most-respected and es* teemed residents of oar little village, Thompson Grimes. Mr. Grimes has been in-poor health since his sickness about six years, ago, which was caused by a stroke of paralysis. On Monday evening last, about 11 o'clock, he was stricken again, this time fatally, and was unconscious for nearly five hoars before he was summoned to that eternal home. The deceased was born in Cortland acounty, N. Y., November 10, 1824 be. ing at his death aged 72 years, 8 months and 17 days. In the year of 1846, he moved to Michigan, locating soon after in the village of Pinckney where be has been a resident ever since, doing much to help build up the town. For several years he was engaged in carriage making, after which he entered the mercantile trade working at this for nearly twentyfive years. In 1878 be was elected asrepresentative from Livingston county and served the state well in 1879-80. He was married to Emilie M. Mann Jan. 1, 1850. after which they began housekeeping in the boose where be has always lived. October 21. 1892 she died, after a short illness, leaving a loving husband to mourn her loss. He was married for the second time to Flora L. Barbour, Aug. 30, 1893, and they continued life's journey together, sharing each others joys and bearing each others burdens till at last the death angel took him from us and bore his soul to rest among the angels foreverraore. Mr. Grimes has held several offices both village and township, and had just vacated the office of vtikg* president about four months proceeding his death. For the past few years he bas not been engaged in any business in particular, bat has enjoyed a wellearned vacation from work. Mr. Grimes was a man of strong mind and wonderful memory. He has handled and possessed at different times large amounts of property, but being too prone to charities, too liberal, too generous to his friends, he lived loving his neighbors as himself and striving to do good unto all men, an J believing that if he did what lay in his power, that the God who created him, would take care of him, wherefore he has now left us and gone to receive his Crown of Glory, and to m r p y t.ha nnbrmndod hi^singa nf o ABOUT ONE MAN IN DOES NOT . .

On Friday of last week, the Pinckney Base Ball team went to Stockbridge to play ball, not expecting to defeat this team, but for the purpose of exhibiting tjheir strength and ability against one of the most crack amatuer teams in Michigan. The score will show that our boys must have played ball as they held their opponents down to ten runs, seven of which were made in the first inning. After that they began to get their nerve np and Pinckney played a ceepeot, aad aiflfctyr afO)rec«.ted by game of ball that has, not been surpassed by a teem from this place for many years back. Tfce boys found no fault in the way they were treated as everthing was done to make the time pass pleasantly and they may be sure that the boys will be need in the best manner possible when they visit this place to play the next which will probably be Aug. 19.

The North Pole Discovered. A special dispatch, from Copenhagen says that a carrier pigeon has just been caught in the vicinity of Tromsoe Island, near the north point of Norway, from which place Andree sailed in his balloon north pole expedition, with the following stamped upon its wing: "North pole passed; fifteenth." Another pigeon caught at Sovede, in Rifylke, carried the message, "North pole, 142 w 14:62," on its wings and is thought to be one of Andree's pigeons. London: A keen interest is felt in geographical circles here as to the result of Andree's.expedition and this is greatly increased by the arrival of the pigeons at Soevde and at Tromsoe island, though there is some doubt as to whether either bird came from Andree. I. Scott Keltie, secretary of the Royal Geographical society, says: "It is certain that if the wind were southerly when he ascended Andree would cross the polar basin and come out near the Bering straits. '142 w' means the coast of North America and if such a wind prevailed, under the most favorable circumstances Andree would arrive there. If the inscription means this, it means also that Andree has passed right across the pole. There is no especial anxiety felt here as to Andree's fate, because even If the balloon comes to grief Andree will be no worse off than Nansen was after leaving the Frim." Stockholm: Dr. Ekhola, who was associated with Andree in the projected balloon expedition of last year, does not believe that the carrier pigeons captnred are from Andree.

It is learned that while the majority of the Senate* amendments were agreed to the House conferees were successful in carrying their points on the more important ite^na, Senator Jones, silver Republican^ of JJeyada,' holding as he did praotioally the balance of power both in the Senftti^and in committee, was. enabled to seojire many concessions for western interests, and he succeeded in securing a degree of protection fotv beet sugar greater than was given lo*either house. The bill as agreed upon will present an entirely new sugar schedule, at least in the main item of duty on raw and refined sugar, but favors the House schedule. Wool is also a compromise. It !B estimated that the changes in the sugar schedule will raise about $2,000,- 000 additional revenue. White pine lumber was restored to the House classification of $2. The House made a strong fight to have hides restored to the free list, but they were compelled to submit to the Senate. The reciprocity clause has been transformed into a modification of both schedules. One of the biggest victories won by the House was in the restoration to the dutiable list of burlaps, jute and cotton bagging, cotton ties, floor matting, e t c , which the Senate had placed on the free list However, the rates are lower th,an they have ever been on this class of articles. Another victory of the House was the elimination of the Senate stamp tax on bonds and stocks. It was decided that the machinery of collection waa too cumbersome'.

But twb speeches were made by the Republicans, one by Mr. Dingiey in opening the debate, and one by Mr. Payne, of New York, in closing i t The Democrat* made 10 speeches and the Populist* ope. The sugar schedule was the main point of assault, bnt the moat interesting feature of the debate occurred when Mr. Bailey and Mr. MoMiilln, the two rival Democratic leader*, crossed swords on the question of orthodoxy of the free raw material doctrine, the former opposing and the latter championing i t The galleriee were crowded up to the' time the vote was taken, many distinguished people being present An analysis of the vote ahow* that 180 Republicans and Ave Democrats voted for the report and 10$ Democrats and 12 Populists against i t In his opening speech Mr. Dingiey spoke of the revenue to be raised by the bill and pointed out the difficulty resulting from the large anticipatory Importations. The bill next year, he calculated, would raise $225,000,000, or $75,000,000 more than the present law. Over $40,000,000 had been lost in this year's revenues by the importations of wool and sugar and other things the duty on which was raised in the bill, so that he calculated that the bill this year would raise $165,000,000. Mr. Dingiey declared that there was no doubt that the revenue produced by the bill would not only be ample to meet the expenditures of the government but allow a Republican administration to begin again to pay off the principal of the public debt Ja concluding Mr. Dingiey received round after round of applause from his Republican colleagues by predicting as a result of the enactment of this bill a rise of prices and a restoration of prosperity.

Mr. Teller declared thajtit was conceived in the interest of a few mill men of Michigan, Minnesota and Wisconsin, by which they would be enabled to raise the price of pine $3 to $4 per thousand.

She would gladly have made some excuse to stay at home, but Mr. Lorraine would not hear of it, and at his earnest request she consented. "She is your best friend," said the minister, "and you must not offend her." , "Very well, I will go," answered Marjorie; "but I shall come home early in the afternoon. She'll never ask me t o stay all night? If she does, X can't do *t!" •'Why not, Marjorie?" •'The Castle's eerie enough at daytime, but at night it's dreadful, and Miss Hetherington creeps about like a ghost. I'd sooner elqpp out in the kirkyard." At a quarter before nine she started, tor she had three miles to walk, and she wished to linger dn the road, which lay through pleasant country pastures and among green, lanes. The morning was bright and clear, though there were clouds to seaward which spoke of coming rain. Passing up through the village, the way she had come the previous day,' she saw young Sutherland standing at the gate of the weaver's cottage. •'Good-morning, Marjorie. Where are you going to so early?" "Up to Miss Hetherington's at the Castle," she replied. "Are you going to walk?" "Yes." 'Then may I come with you a piece of the road?" "Not today, Johnnie," she said, nervously. «Tm late, and must hurry on." ., The young man sighed, but did not . preae his request Troubled and vexed at the meeting, Marjorie walked ejulckly away. She followed the townward highway till she came to the fcnws-road* where she had alighted from the wagonette. Close to the cross-road there was a stile, and she was about to step over, when she heard a voice behind her. Turning quickly she saw to her astonishment the French teacher from Dumfries. He was clad in a dark walking-suit, with broad-brimmed, wide-awake hat, and was smoking a cigar. He looked at her smilingly, and raised his hat. She thought he had never looked so handsome, as he stood there In tbe sunshine, with his pale lace smiling and his bright black er^ Ased eagerly upon her. "Monsieur Caussldisre!" she cried in astonishment "Yes, it is I!" he replied i n his sad, musical voice. "I have walked from UK town, and was going dow-u to see you." "To see me!" she echoed. "Yes, mademoiselle, and the good man your guardian, You have spoken of him so often that I longed to make his acquaintance, and, having two idle days before me, I came here, a s you behold." Marjorie did not know erieet t o say or do, the encounter was so smexpected. ghe stood trembling and fclashiag in aoeh obvious embarrassment that the Frenchman came to her relief. •"Do not let me detain roe. if you have an appointment Or stay! perhaps'you wfl! permit me to walk a little way In your company?" And before she quite understood what was taking place, he had lightly leaped the stile and was hae-din* her over with great politeness. They strolled along the foot-path fide by aide, (suddenly Marjorie paused. **I ant going up to the Castle,*' she a*W, "and I shall hot be back till the afternoon; Do not let me take yoa out of your way." T h e T i e w f t m a n smiled and snntgged his shouideta. "Oh! one way is to me as good us another." he exclaimed. "But you said yon wished to see Mr. Lorraine?** "Precisely; but I prefer your oompaay, my child." **He is at home now, and will be so glad of sosae one to talk to." **I see you want to get rid of me, "If 1 g o will you promise to return toon? Remember, I ahall not depart until yom do return.** - -Yes, I will promise.*' answered Marjorie. " W would ratbar jrau did not "And wherefore, my child? Is my company so disagreeable?" "No, monsieur; but the folk in this place are aye talking, and if they saw me walking with a strange gentleman it would be all over the parish before night, and then Miss Hetherington would hear of it, and I should get no peace." And as she spoke she looked round nervously, as if dreading an eye-witness. "Miss Hetherington! Pray, who is she?" "The lady I am going to see. She has eyes everywhere—nothing happens but she kens." "But surely there Is nothing to conceal," persisted the Frenchman. "It is very natural that, having met you, I should offer to escort you." "In France, maybe, but not here in Annandale. Down here, monsieur, when two folk are seen out walking in the fields together, all the world believes them to be courting." She had spoken without reflection, and her face now grew crimson as she met her companion's eyes and realized the significance of her own words. "I see," cried Lhe Frechman, laughing. "They would take me for your lover." Marjorie did not reply, but turned her face away and began to walk on rapidly. But the Frenchman kept by her side. "Ah, my child," he continued, "I am more fit to be your father than your lover. I am not so frivolous and vain as to presume to think of one so young and pretty. You must not mind me! I am your teacher, your friend—that is ail!" ' She was touched by the tone in which he spoke, but after a moment's hesitation she paused again, and looked him full in the face. "What you say is quite true, monsieur," she said; "but, oh! do not follow me any further. See, that is the Castle, and who knows but Miss Hetherington herself Is watching us from the tower?" She pointed across the fields toward a dark belt of woodland, over which two old-fashioned towers were indeed visible, about a mile and a half -away. "Well, I will do as you desire, my child," answered Caussldiere, after a moment's hesitation;' "I will go and make the acquaintance of your guardian. Au re voir!" He took her hand, lifted tt to his lips, and kissed it; then, with an air of respectful gallantry, he swept off his hat and bowed. She cquld not help smiling; he looked so fantastic to her simple sight, and yet so handsome! She walked on thoughtfully. At the next stile she turned and looked back. He was still stationary la the pathway, gazing after her; but the moment she looked back he kissed hie hand. Marjorie turned again and walked on, with no little fluttering of the heart When she reached the Castle, an OIHAHV man-gprvant ted her Into the lobby, a dark and dreary, passage hung with oil paintings and antique maps and prints; thence into a large apartment, divided by an open folding-door into two portions. Here he left her to announce her arrival to bis mistress. Presently the room door opened, and the mistress of the house appeared. She was dressed in an old-fashioned robe of stiff black silk, and wore a cap, like t h a t of a widow, aver her •nowwhite hair. She eame in leaning on her crutch, and nodded grimly to her guest "Sit ye doon," she said, pointing to a seat, and herself dropping into an Armchair before the fire. Then, drawing out a man's gold hunting-watch and opening it, she continued: "Twentyfive minutes after ten. You're late in coming, Marjorie Annan. I doubt you were lingering on the way." CHAPTER IX. 8 the spoke, and closed her watch sharply. Miss Hethington fixes aer blaok eyes keenly on Marjorie, who, remembering her recent encounter with Caussldiere, flushed and trembled. A curious smile gpew upon the stern woman's bloodless face as she continued: "Ay. ay, yon were 11¾ be poo had pleasant company. Who was yon you parted with out there among the green fields?* Marjorie started in consternation. Her fears, then, were right, and it was to conceal anything from Mies Hetherington, who was like a witch, and had wm and ears everywhere, "Oh, Miss Hetherington," she exclaimed, "did you see us together?" ul was up on ,tbe tower with my spy* Ing-glasi, and I saw far awa' a lassie, that looked like Marjorie Annan, and a lad I took at first for Johnnie Sutherland, till he began booing and kissing his hand, and then I saw it could na be Johnnie." Marjorie now perceived that all concealment was useless, and at once told her hostess of the meeting with her French teacher. She did not think it expedient, however, to describe with exactness the Frenchman's conversation; but even as it was, Miss Hetherington's brow darkened, and her eyes flashed with a light like that of anger. "Braw doings!" she muttered. "Draw doings for young growing lassie o' seventeen ! Your French teacher, say you? What's his name, Marjorie?" "Monsieur Caussldiere." "And what's the man doing down here instead of teaching his classes in the town?" "Indeed, I can't tell," returned Marjorie. "I met him quite by accident on my way to see you." "Humph! What like is he? Is he young?" "Not very young." "Weel favored?" "Yes, and very clever." "Worse and worse," said Miss Hetherington. "Now, Marjorie, listen to me!" "Yes, Miss Hetherington." , "Look me in the face while you answer. Do you think this French scoundrel— he is a scoundrel, tak' it for granted—has come down here in pursuit o' his pupil? Dinna be feared to answer. Is he fond o* you, Marjorie?" "I—I think he likes me." "Has he said as muckle?" "YeB, Miss Hetherington," answered Marjorie, who was incapable of a falsehood. "And you? What think ye of him?" "I like him very much, Miss Hetherington. He has been very kind and patient with me." - "But do you love him?—tell me that; or is It Johnnie Sutherland that has won your silly heart? Out with it, Marjorie Annan, ' Frank confession's good for the soul, and I'm your friend." Marjorie blushed, but kept her frank blue eyes fixed on her questioner's face. "I don't love anybody, Miss Hetherington— not in the way you mean." "Are you sure o' that?" "Quite sure." "Then you're a wise lassie," cried the lady, rising to her feet "Men are kittle cattle, and safer at a distance. Look at that pleture," she continued, suddenly pointing to a portrait over the mantelpiece. "You ken who is it?" "Yes; your brother, Mr. Hugh." "Hugh Hetherington, God rest his soul! and the best brother woman ever had. Folk thought that he was bad, and he had my father's temper; but he guarded his sister like a watch-dog; and I wish you had a brother to guard you half as weel. Look underneath my een, on my right cheek! You see that mark? I shall carry it to my grave. Hugh gave it to me when I was a young lass. He struck me in the face wi' his fist, because he thought I was hiding something from him, and coortlng wi' one I needna name." The lady's face grew full of a wild, fierce light as she spoke, and she laughed strangely to herself., Marjorie gased at her in dread. "It was a lie, but Hugh was right he loved his sister.

The friends oft a certain professional woman in Washington tell a story on her which they call a huge joke. There is a baby in the professional woman's family. The baby has a nurse. It has alao a doting grandfather, who came to see It very early one morning recently. As he came near the house he saw the baby carriage standing near the aide door. The house doors were still locked. -Nobody was stirring. The grandfather looked into the carriage, and there, to his amazement, lay the precious baby. It had actually been left out all night, for, as the mother explained, she had been busy all the evening and supposed nurse had baby, and the nurse had been busy all evening and supposed the mother had baby. Between the two of them the child had been left out of doors all night. W i l l i s f A » a i « .

W h y There A r e Very Ancient Specimen* Now in Kxtatenee. According to M. Rerthelot, the celebrated scientist historian, there are no very ancient pearls in existence, for which a sufficient reason is found in the fact that pearls, unlike precious stones, are destructible. They discolor and disintegrate. The pearl is not mentioned by Homer or Herodotus, he states. It begins to appear in the time of Alexander—that is, of the conquest of the east, and it is about this time that the name Margarita—that is to say, Pearl—is first given to women. Not a great deal is known about the value attributed by the ancients to particular pearls. The one that Cleopatra drank was valued at $200,000 modern money. * Mention is made by Pliny of a practice of Clodius, son of the actor Aesop, who gave his guests drssolved pearls to drink, says the San Fnancisco Argonaut. The Romans appreciated the pearl and after, the growth of luxury began to have its usual effect in, diminishing the birth-rate one of the laws against celibacy provided that no childless woman or spinster should wear pearls under the age of 55. Pearis are prominent in frhe j;oyal toilets of Europe. Catherine de Medicis was said to have the finest pearls in Europe. When she married Henri, due d'Orleans, Francis I. preseated her two g-reat pearls weighing fl ye grams each. She afterward presented these to Marie Stuart, who, while queen of France, had them set in the partrres tarn 1 liar in her portraits. At that queen's fall the pearls were captured by Morton and sent to London. Catherine instructed «her ambassador to buy them, but they were bought by Elizabeth for 12,000 crowns. At that time pearls cut a leading figure in woman's' dress. The great sleeves were" decorated with them. The favorite ornament, however, was the paternoster embracing the waist, then hanging down in front to the bottom of the skirt. The decoration was completed by a bertha destining the breast, Joining in front and descending in two rows to join the paternoster, giving the effect of an opening in the corsage. Pearls and precious stones were bought as a con- VCnient investment ana acceptaoie collateral. Elizabeth lent £20,000 on a pledge of jewels by the prince of Conde, Jeanne d'Albret, Henry of Navarre and Coligny. The jewels were never redeemed and now figure among the crown jewels. The M. E. Sunday school of Howell enjoyed a picnic at Long Lake, five miles east of that place on Thursday of last week. Three wagon loads of them were drawn over by a traction engine. The Livingston Democrat says: "How many highway overseers in Livingston county have failed to enforce the following law from Howell's Annotate*! Statutes: "Every overseer shall cause the noxious weeds within the limits of the highways in his district to be cut down twice in each year, once before the first day of July and aguiu before the first day in( September and the requisite labor shall be considered highway work. * * * * Any overseer who shall refuse or neglect to preform these duties required by this section shall be liable to a penalty of $25.

A plan is proposed for reaching the North Pole by cutting through fields of ice. The craft is not unlike the whaleback in appearance, and is made of steel, heavily, riveted, braced and strengthened to the" last limit, in order to withstand the buffeting incident to such a perilous undertaking. At the bow of the boat is located what for lack of a better name is called an ice destroyer, which Is composed of a combination of toothed wheels not unlike circular saws. These wheels by revolving rapidly cut the ice into fragments and open the way through tBe most solid fields. The idea would suggest itself to the critical reader that this might, he very well, provided the j * \c* wa_8 r^Mpj^aWy thin and there could be any assurance, in case of accident, that the vessel could be gotten out of its rigid environment.' But supposing ! It were necessary to back out and the lire had frozen solid behind it, t>r if T it simply cuts a passage wTaTcndugTTto get through ahd there were an obstacle in the way of proceeding, how is the vessel to turn around asd get out?

A recent writer notes that "a good orchard" is one of the most important and attractive Improvements offered by one who has "a farm for sale." A rural nonagenarian, now dead for nearly half a century, made it a part of his chief Industry to persuade his neighbors to start nurseries of future orchards by saving and planting fruitseeds. A blessing has been pronounced on the man who, plants a tree, in the generous hope' that others will eat its fruit or sit in its shade. What a mighty debt we, who are "heirs of all the ages," owe to those who have come and gone before us! Oddly enough, we can only pay it to those who are to come and go after us. • processor in the college of the city of New York said recently that the average schoolboy in that city "has to be taught English as If he was learning a new language." This is absolutely true. The vilest "English" spoken anywhere is heard from the lips of youngsters in the streets of New York. Many children of well-to-do people learn It, and tn their play their speech Is substantially the same as that of the "young tough.' It may not be profane, obscene, or slangy, but it is characterised by a clipping and distortion of words, and by what may be termed an impudence of utterance, that make it the most offensive corruption of the English tongue to be heard anywhere in the world. No wonder tbst when these youngsters come to study correct English they have to begin at the beginningi Trusts aro not regarded as Illegal combinations In Germany, as Is evidenced by a recent decision of the Supreme Court of the empire. Economic considerations appear to have played a prominent part in the deliberations of the court, which, in its opinion, says that it Is not to the interest of the community that inadequately low prices Bhould prevail in any branch of business or industry, and points out that attempts have been repeatedly made by legislative bodies to bring about higher prices for certain products by means of protective duties. The ground is taken that if this policy be pursued by the legislature, agreement* or combinations between manufactur ere to prevent rulnft»* AQmpMtUnn •*.< check the downward tendency of prices cannot be regarded as generally arid absolutely obnoxious to the inters 11 of the community. jWf" HE first passage introduces to you Lydia, a Christian merehantess. Her business is to deal in purple cloths or silk*. She is n o t a g i g g l i n g nonentity but a practical woman, not , ashamed to work for her living. All the other women of Philippi and Thyatira have been forgotten; but God bar made immortal in our text Lydia, the Christian saleswoman. The other text shows you a man with head, and hand, and heart, and foot all busy toiling on up until he gains a princely success. "Seest thou a man diligent in his business? He shall stand before kings." Great encouragement in these two passages for men and women who will be busy, but no solace for those who ate waiting for good luck to show them, at the foot of the rainbow, a casket of buried gold. It is folly for anybody in this world to wait for something to turn up. It will turn down. The law of thrift is as inexorable as the law of the tides. Fortune, the magician, may wave her wand in that direction until castles and palaces «ome; but she will, after a while, invert the same wand, and all the splendors wjll vanish into thin air. There are certain styles of behavior which lead to usefulness, honor, and permanent success, and there are certain styles of behavior which lead to dust, dishonor and moral default. I "would like to fire the ambition pf young people. I have no sympathy with those who would prepare young folks for life by whittling down their expectations. That man or woman will be worth nothing to church or state who begins life cowed down. The business of Christianity is not to quench but to direct human ambition. Therefore it^ls that I utter words of encouragement to those who are occupied as clerks in the stores and shops and banking houses of the country. They are not an, exceptional class. They belong to a great company of tens of thousands who are in this country amid circumstances which will either make or break them for time and eternity. Many of these people have already achieved a Christian manliness and a Chrltslan womanliness which will be their passport to any position. I have seen their trials. I have watched their perplexities. There are evils abroad which need to be hunted down and dragged out into the noonday light. In the first place, I counsel clerks to remember that for the most part their clerkship is only a school from which they are to be graduated. It takes about eight years to get into one of the learned professions. It take? about eight years to get to be a merchant. Some of you will be clerks all your lives, but the vast majority of you are only in a transient position. After a while, some December day, the head men of the firm will call yoti into The total.product of American manufactures is in excess of $7,000,000,- 000 a year, whereas the total values of the combined manufactures of Great Britain in a year amount to only $4,- 100,000,000. Germany follows with |2,- 915,000,000. France comes third with 12,245,000,000, Russia fourth with SI,- 816,000,000, and then the other countries having large manufactures as follows: Austria-Hungary $1,265/)00,000, Italy $606,000,000, Belgium $510,000,000, Spain $426,000,000, and Switzerland $160,000,000. In respect to the product of manufactures by hand the United States are far in excess of all other countries. The average here is $1,888, in Great Britain $790, in France, in Belgium and Germany the same, $545; In Switzerland $438, in Russia $381, and in Italy $265. In respect to the amount of steam power used, the United States stand at the bead of all manufacturing countries, with a total of WmfiOO horse power. Great Britgin fast 12,000,000, Germany »,000,000, France 5,000,000 and Austria-Hungary and Russia 2,600,000 each.

We invite you to have an Interest in onr concern." You will bow to that edict very gracefully. Getting into a street car to go home, an old comrade will meet you and say: "What makes you look so happy to tonight?" "Oh,M you will say, "nothing, nothing." But in a few days your name will blossom on the sign. Either In the store or bank where you sre now, or In some other store or bank, you will take a higher position than that which you now occupy. So I feel I am now addressing people who will yet have their hand on the helm of the world's aommerce, and yon will tum It this way or that; now clerks, but to be bankers, importers, insurance company directors, shippers, contractors, superintendents of railroads — your voiee mighty "on •Change"—standing foremost in the great financial and religious enterprises of the day. For, though we who are in the professions may, on the platform, plead for the philanthropies, after all, the merchants must come forward with their millions to sustain the movement, /Be, therefore, patient and diligent in this transient position. You are now where you can learn things you can never learn in any other place. What you consider your disadvantages are your grand opportunity. You see an afn" o*irt fafcher some day come down a prominent street with his son who has just graduated from the university, and establishing him in business, putting $50,000 capita} in the store. Well, you are envious. You say: "Oh, If I only had a chance like that young man— if I only had a fs|her to put $6040* In a business for me, then I would hate ao»e chance te the world." Be envious. You have advantages over that young man which he has not over you. As well might I come down to the docks when a vessel is about to sail tot Valparaiso, and say, "Let me pilot this ship out to as*" Why. I would sink crew and cargo before I got out of the harbor, simply because I know nothing about pilotage. Wealthy sea captains put their sons before the mast for the reason thai they know it is the only place where they can learn to be successful sailors. It la only under drill that people get to understand pilotage and navigation, and I want you to understand that it takes no more skill to conduct a vessel out of the harbor and across the sea than to steer a commercial establishment clear of the recks. You see every day the folly of people going Into a business they know nothing about. A man makes a fortune in one business; thinks there is another occupation more comfortable; goes Into it and sinks all. Many of the commercial establishments of our clUea are giving their clerks a mercantile education as thorough as Yale, or Harvard, or Princeton are giving scientific attainment to the students matriculated. The reason there are so many men foundering In business., from year to year, Is because their early mercantile education wis neglected. Ask the men in high* commercial circles, snd they will tell you they thank God for this severe discipline of their early clerkship. You can afford to endure the wilderness march, if it is going to end in the vineyards and orchards of the promised land. But you will say: "Will the womanly clerks in our stores have promotion?" Yes. Time is coming when women will be as well paid for their toll in mercantile circles as men are now paid for their toil. Time is com-' ing when a woman will be allowed to do anything she can do well. It is only a little while ago when women knew nothing of telegraphy, and they were kept out of a great many commercial circles where they are now welcome; and the time will go on until the woman who at one odunter in a store sells $5,000 worth of goods in a year, will get as high a salary as the man who at the other counter of the same store sells $5,000 worth of goods. All honor to Lydia, the Christian saleswoman. The second counsel I have to give to clerks is that you seek out what are the lawful regulations of your establishment, and then submit to them. Every well-ordered house has Its usages. In military life, on ship's deck, in commercial life, there must be order and-discipline1. Those people who do not learn how to obey will never know how to command. I will tell you what young man will make ruin, financial and moral; it is the young man who thrusts his thumb into his vest and says: "Nobody shall dictate to me, I am my own master; I will not BUbmit to the regulations of this house," Between an establishment in which all the employes are under thorough discipline and the establishment in which the employes do about as they choose, is the difference between success and failure—between rapid accumulation and utter bfifikruptey. Do not come to the store ten minutes after the time. Be there within two seconds, and let it be two seconds before instead of two seconds after. Do not think anything too insignificant to do well. Do not say, "It's only just once."

Some of you remember when the war broke out and all merchandise went up, and - merchants were made millionaires in six months by the simple rise In the values of goods. Did the darks get advantage of that rise? Sometimes, not always. I saw estates gathered in those times over which the curse of God has hung ever since. The cry of unpaid men and women in these stores reached, the Lord of Sabaotb, and the indignation of God has been around those establishments ever since. Then, there are boys ruined by lack of compensation, In how many prosperous stores it has been for the last twenty years that boys were given just enough money to teach them how to steal!

Do not get easily disgusted. While others in the store may lounge, or fret, or complain, you go with ready hands, and cheerful face, and contented spirit to your work. When the bugle sounds, the good soldier asks no questions, but shoulders his knapsack, fills'his canteen and listens for the command of "March!" Do not get the idea that your interests and those of your employer are antagonistic. His success will be your honor. His embarrassment will/fce your dismay. Expose none of the frahties of the firm. Tell no store secrets. Do not blab. Rebuff those persons who come to find out from clerks what ought never to be known outside the store. Do not be among those young men who take on a mysterious air when something is said against the firm that employs them, as much as to say: "I could tell you something if I would, but I won't." Do not be among those who imagine they can build themselves up by pulling somebody else down. Be not ashameffTO be a subaltern. * • • Then there are all the trials which come to clerks from the treatment of inconsiderate employers. There are professed Christian men who have no more regard for their clerks than they have for the scales on which the sugars are weighed. A clerk is no more than so much store furniture. No conslderalloirHter-^ eii^-rJghtr or interests were not known. The head of the firm asked: "Where is George now?" "Oh, he isn't here any more." A lad might better starve to death on a blasted heath than take one farthing from his employer. Woe be to that .employer who unnecessarily puts a temptation in a boy's way. There have been great establishments in these cities, building marble palaces, their owners dying worth millions, and millions, and millions, who made a vast amount of their estate out of the blood, and muscle, and nerve of half-paid clerks. Such men as —well, I will not mention any nahie. But I mean men whoi have gathered up vast estates at the expense of the people who were ground under their heel. "Oh," say such merchants, "If you don't like it here, then go and get a better place." AB much as to say: "I've got you in my grip, and I mean to hold you; you can't get any other place." . Oh, what a^ contrast between those men and Christian merchants who today are sympathetic with their clerks —when they pay the salary, acting in his way: "This salary that I give you is not all my interest in you. You are an Immortal man; you are an immortal woman; I am interested in your present and your everlasting welfare; I want you to understand that, if I am a little higher up in this store, I am beside you in Christian sympathy." Go back forty or fifty years to Arthur Tappen's store in New York—a man whose worst enemies never questioned his honesty. Ever.y morning, he brought all the clerks, snd the accountants, and the weighers into a room for devotion. They sang. They prayed. They exhorted. On Monday morning the clerks were asked where they had attended church on the previous day, and what the sermonB were about. It must have sounded strangely, that voice of praise along the streets where the devotees of mammon were counting their golden beads. You Bdy, Arthur Tappen failed. Yes, he was unfortunate, like a great many good men; but I understand he met all his obligations before he left this world, and I know that he died in the peace of1 the Gospel, and that he is before the throne -of^ God today—forever blessed. If that be failing, I wish you might all fail. • * • After the last store has been closed, after the last bank has gone down, after the shuffle of the quick feet on the Custom House steps has stopped, after the long Line of merchantmen on the sea have taken sail of flame, af- ter Washlnglon, and New York, and went to the calendar. Shortly bei the Senate adjourned Mr. Allison, in charge of the tariff bill, made a strong effort to have a time fixed for the final vote on the tariff conference report. Failing in this he gave notice that the session the following day would be protracted with a view to securing a vote. HOUSE.—Two important bills were passed. The first allows a partial suspension of the discriminating duties imposed on the vessels of foreign countries which impose similar duties on our vessels. The effent of the bill is to open the way;for securing a market for American coal in Mexico, which is now supplied by English coal mines. The other bill is to create a civil government in Alaska, with an additional land office, which is made Imperative by recent gold discoveries, Rep. C. W. Stone, of Pennsylvania, in* traduced a bill to authorize the* appointment of a monetary commission and to appropriate $100,000 for. its, expenses.

VSR the frontdoor was the motto, "God BleeT~Our Hone,*; worked in red, blue and yellow silk. Close beside it, between the door and the window, was Joe Luramis' first composition. It was written in a large, uneven hand on foolscap paper, and was framed with an inch wide fancy design in varnished straw festooned with acorns. It ran in this wise: "When I get big I want a home. I want a wife and children. I want to hear their cheerful voices. I want to see the Are burn brightly, and to watch it glimmer on my wife's hair. When I come home at night I want to find supper ready, then we will be very happy," - — When Joe first had the composition framed and placed near the motto bis mother smiled half chldingly and looked upon his fondness for the crude literary effort as a bit of childish folly that ought to be shamed out of him. She even went so far once as to begin to tell him that if be wished to treasure his composition it would be better to put it In the trunk Instead of hanging It on the wall where all could see it and comment on it, perhaps unkindly, but hardly had he divined her thought when he turned toward her with such a wondering, appealing look in his large dull eyes that her tongue tripped and faltered over the words and she hastened to ohange the subject, hoping he had not clearly understood what had been in her mind. Her heart was so sorely grieved at having wounded him that to make amends she, too, began to love the faded composition, and had any one dared to attempt to take it from Its place on the wall she would have defended^/more vigorously than the most valued'art treasure. As the years passed, taking Joe through boyhood and youth and far Into manhood and each night found him sitting at the opposite side of the room, looking at the motto and the composition with a smile expressive of both hoped for happiness and realized disappointment resting on his plain face, her mother-heart read the secret of his attachment to the composition, which was the only tangible expression he had ever shown of his constant dream of a home. Sometimes she wished he would take her into his confidence and tell her whether there was any possibility of his drream coming true, but he never showed any inclination to become confidential on that subject, freely as they talked on other topics. One night her anxiety got the better of the reserve which she, too, had maintained in deference to the evident wish and hobbling across the room she sat down beside him and laid her knotted, rheumatic hand in his. "Joe," she said, half timidly, "do you think it will ever come out all right?" The rapt, entranced expression died away from his face and he flushed deeply. "What are you talking about?" he asked. "That," and she pointed to the composition. "Do yon think you will ever get a home, Joe?" "Why, mother," he said, with a short laugh, "I've got one now, haven't I?" She looked around the little room with its plain walls, cheap ingrain car- MT POOR BOY. pat and homely furniture. His eyes followed hers, and they sighed In oni- "Joe, soy poor boy, it's a bard life you've had, Isn't it?" He raised her hands to his lips and caressed it gently. That unwonted mark of affection loosened the floodgates of feeling she bad hitherto kept well under control add she broke out into a vehement, peetioaate Sow of simple etoqaeaos he had aerer leomrnl It poosfhle to hear from his mother's Ufa. "Aa, Joe, say dear.** she said, and her shriveled hand passed tenderly to and fro over his rough face as she tMnfcT-yoa can o^oeive I've known all about it far years, Joe. Ton never knew that I eaderetaoi you, bat your every has been as clear as print to rve aeea you sitting here night gating so latently at that jnoito with Its brown hpuse aud mossgrown weli aear by that I anew your invagination was busy painting pictures something akin to that with the wife and children of your epmpealtlon as central figures. No supper I can ever cook, Joe, wilt taste so good as that prepared by your wife, and s o other laughter will ever sound so sweet t e your ears as that of her and the children. But it is not in this homely old room alone that yoor mind dreamed. All through the day your mind has been intent upon the same theme, and I«have dreamed with you. In fancy I have been with you down there by that burning furnace where you are fireman, and I have seen with you the pictures that have biased and danced in the flames and glowing coals. Whether you were looking1 jnjp" the fiercest fire or upon banks ef (Unit eold cinders, it has always been the same; the home you long for has been ever before you. Oh, how I wish you had it, Joe, how I wish you had it. "Joe," she resumed, after a short sllence, "the girls are marrlad nnw and off your bands. I am the only one left It isn't right that you should waste more precious years of your life on me. You are past 30. It Is time for your dreaming to end and the reality to begin. I am old and crippled and worthless. Don't let me be a burden to you any longer. Put me away some place and let the home making commence." "Mother." The reproach in his voice thrilled and startled her, and she turned her face away. "Why, mother, how can you talk like that to me? Put you away? Don't hurt me by suggesting such a thing. I wouldn't give you up for all the women in the world. Who said you were a burden to me? Let's brush the old picture of hqme away, mother, and paint another." "No, no, Joe; not yet," and she nestled closer to his side; "is there—anybody— in particular?" Joe's face turned a deeper crimson and he looked around in affright as if he would fain seek refuge in flight "Is there?" she persisted. He nodded. "Who is she? Tell me. I have a right to know, haven't I, Joe?" Oh, how his heart throbbed and how his great, strong hands trembled. "The alto singer in the church choir,** he said, weakly.

Will you go, tomorrow?" "Yes, tomorrow. Please God the dream may come true." He drew his couch around so he could see the firelight from the open stove falling fitfully on the motto and the composition, and his dreams that night had an added significance. The next day when attending the furnace his ideal home seemed very near. The fantastic figures in the flames took on the semblance of his beloved family, and the hissing of the tongues was resolved into the merry cries of children. His mother watched him proudly that night, when, attired la bis new black suit—the first tailor made suit he had ever owned—he tipped and tilted the little mirror In the vela endeavor to catch a full length view of his tall figure. "You look handsome, Joe," she said, with a quavering laugh.

The boxes were 16 and $10 each. The president occupied one on the northern side of the theater, just above and upon the stag*. The bouse was crowd- Laura Keene was standing behind the rcanes on the side of the theater fertheet from the presidential box, near what is called the "tormentor," awaiting her cue. Of right she should not have been eo near the prompter's desk, but he had gone to call some of the actors. B6 she placed herself at band, hoping to be of service. Her part was that of Florence Trenchard. The time had come for the entrance of Mr. G. O. Spear as Binney. He had a drunken scene to go through, and Mies Keene, was expecting to give hdm a push as he went by her. to aid in the effect as he oame within view of Che audience. Instead she felt herself pushed in the other direction—from the stage, toward which she was not just at that moment looking. As she felt hersetf struck on the hand by the hand of another she glanced up and neeosmised John Wilkes Booth and saw, loo, the dagger be was clutching* At that very moment the appallina cry ranc out through the house: "The president is shot?" It was echoed spontaneously from among the audience, and, ea Miss Keene eime forward she could see many men on their feet, some of them evidently making for the stage, from which they had seen the assassin disappear. Women were crying aloud, men cursing and children weeping, aH in an indeterminate panic, much se if the alarm of fire had been raised. M2es Keene came down to the footlights forthwith and said: "For God's sake, have presence of mind and keep your Pisces, and all will be well." Meanwhile Booth had made his escape through the stage door, fleeing on the horse which had been provided for him. He had been followed by a Mr. Stewart, one of the audience, down on the stage" after his leap from the president's box, but had avoided him by dodging about the scenery, and had gotten away from the stage carpenter, who had attempted to detain him, by jtrlasng at him with the dagger. No eae except Mr. Stewart tried to purawe tee fugitive, though everybody willing to aid.

"Bosh!" returned the doctor, "you owe that to yourself." "It must have cost you trouble and expense, and I want to make It good," Alger urged.
