In Silas Qulncy'8 Store..BY HABBY A.YLWIN JACOBS.

:t may ecem mighty fanny to you city folks,no doubt,

But we, out here In Perklnsvllle. know whatwe're taltlng'bout;

'or wo know just what can be done to settlethis big war,— •

We've talked. the matter over lots In SilasQulncy'8 store.

And when the trouble first begun and we allheard the news,

We held a'speclal meeting to express and airour views,

Tor we are patriotic and are loyal through,and through;

Bo that's J ust why we meet and talk, to knowwbat'fl best, to do.

An' then we write to Washington, and toMoKlnley, there,

To tell him what we think Is best and allthat would be fair.

And that Is why he's done so well to nearlyend the war;

Bo we're going to keep our meetings up atSilas Qulncy's store.

Whenever meeting night comes 'round therela life In Perklnsvllle,

Tor folks come In from miles around, thecozy room to fill;

And then enthusiasm reigns and spreads outlike wild flre

Til every soul Isjpst ablaze, each other toInspire.

And lots o' teams stand 'round outside—ofpeople there are more

To hehr all thafis going on In Silas Qulncy'sstore,

'or questions grave and otherwise, nomatterwhat they are,

Are openly discussed by all those living nearand far.

When Deacon Crowfoot made his speech, sovery brave he grew,

Ic even made a motion that we take allEurope, too;

5ut wiser beads got up and spoke and theiropinions gave.

So once again in Perklnsvllle this countrydear was caved.

And men of wisdom, so they say, as long aslasts tbe war

Will over meet In Perklnsvllle, In SilasQulncy's store:

And then when pence has been declared, tosuit those learned men.

They'll dream of war times at the store, andtalk of crops again.

JESS* In justice to our Town Marshal,we repeat a previously made remark,that he cannot be all over town at onetime. He has done more, in the shorttime, he has held the office, to abateaggravating little nuisances than anyman ever did, and without arrests. Inregard to those "don't care fellows"who rode on Central Avenue sidewalks,hey were city riders who went downklain Road to the Lake, by mistake,

and were on their way back. Whenapproaching Bellevue Ave., where theMarshal was, they were all riding inthe street.

t Story of a Waated laib.I "was about to enter one of thc dtnlng

rooms of this city for my regular after-Boon meal, when a fairly dr«ssed manapproached me, and, aftoiscoiiBlderlng,he said: "I am hungry; yOa, honestlyhungry. Can you do anything-ior me V"H4s voice had that smooth, educatedBound, which one likes to hprfr, nnd,without considering tho fact/fii;it I hudpreviously been made a/Victim of aDumber of Ms gentry, I/took him In-sid^, and, as I ordered/Jlnner f°r two>I got a first-class chajace to look himW«r. He was a young man of 24 yearser thereabouts. Hie face, thoughgrimy, had a decidedly straightforwardlook, and as he begun to eat I also ob-served that he was refined In manners.I was becoming Interested In the fellowfor some un'explalnable -reason, andwhen the contents of the dishes had dis-appeared and he announced that hisappetite was appeased, I asUed him totake a walk. Together we strolled tothe Alameda, •where after seating our-selves I ventured .to ask him what,brought hi-m to Mexico. After consid-erable hesitation he replied: "Mister,I am not used to this life, and I amhere because I have tried to get as faraway from the city that I was born andraised In as possible. I am the only sonof a man of wealth hi a large city In thenorthern part of the United States, andI was raised In what IB termed the lap•of luxury. I received tbe very beat ed-ucation that money could furnish, andiwhen three years ago I graduated fromcollege my father placed his hand uponmy head and said: 'My son, I amprottd of you.' Prom the college doorI w,ent directly In the office of my fath-er's extensive commercial house, andwhen I should have gained what the<old man' called a knowledge of thqbusiness, I would have been taken inm a partner of the firm. About this jtime I became engaged to a young lady }who was my equal In everything, so-cial)?, and the -weddtag day was set.

moro I fainted. I' did not rememberanything more until I one morningfound myself In a cheap lodging house,In a city, nnd those about me called medaft. I was In rags, and as I mechan-ically felt for my letter and ring, Ifound that they were gone. I wasstunned, but throwing all my remain-ing manhood Into action, I started outto look for employment. 1 searchedhard, but no one would give me work,nnd I came to Mexico, beating trainsand begging my food In. the .hopes thatBorne one would give me some kind ofemployment here. That Is all."—Cityof Mexico Two Republics.

KOREAN FAIRY TALE.

Reads as Cliarminjjly aa One of Motlic?GOOSC'B.

The Koreans have an interesting le>pend concerning the manner in whichTong-Pak-Suk, the Methuselah of theirmythology, got the'better of gntan.Tong lived 1,000 years and acquiredgreat wisdom. The later years ofhis. life were spent In fishing, but notwishing to diminish the stock of flshIn the river, he used a straight pieceof wire instead of a hook. Thus hewas able to enjoy the excitement andpleasure of fishing for several centu-ries without catching a single fish.

Ralizlng that sooner or later thedevil who did death's •errands wouldbe looking him up, he changed hisname and abode1 with each generationand thus eluded him. In the meantimethe evil one disguised himself in aflowing Korean robe which covered uphis tall, concealed his horns under amourner's hat three feet In diameterand wrapped his legs in curious pad-ded stockings, so that he easily passedfor a native. He heard that Tong wasfishing in the Hau river. So he col-lected a quantity- of charcoal andwashed it In that stream. This ofcourse blackened the water, and Tong,being surprised and annoyed, went up

CHARACTfcR IN THE HAIR.

"A few days after the date of my | to discover the cause. Finding themarriage was settled, an old collegechum arrived to the city, and, what Isnatural, accepted my invitation to makeour house his headquarters while intown! He was a hail fellow well met,and In a few days we were nightly en-gaged in-taking in.the town. One morn-Ing after beiug out all night I accident-ally met my fiancee upon the street,and she, seeing my Intoxicated condi-

devil washing the charcoal, he askedwhat he was doing. The devil repliedthat he was trying to make it white, j

Old Tong in his astonishment was ithrown off his guard and said: "I have |lived in Korea hundreds of years, nudof course have met many fools, but I Inever sttw a big enough fool to try to ,wash charcoal white." ' !

The devil at once knew his man, andtlon, passed by me, and the mere sight i unfolding his tail by way of exhibit-of her sobered me completely. Thatafternoon I received a letter from her,

closing her engagement ring, and.ting that she did not care to become

a drunkard's wife, breaking the en-gagement. For hours I was as a crazyman, and, when my senses returned Imade an attempt to see her, but wasdebarred the house. I sent letters,messages, begging, entreating her toforgive me. It was useless. In a fewdays I returned to my oliice, hut couldnot put my mind on what I was doing,and I took 'the usual course, tried todrown my troubles by drink. It was

.but a step. I met boon companions,who helped me down the easy path.Prom the saloon, one more short stepand I was In the gambling house. Atfirst I used to win, and I was continual-ly during the hours of business to befound at the card tables. Ono day Ihad what they called a bad run of luck

"lost all the "money I had, amount-ing' to several thousand dollars, and Inmy deRpejntlon I wrote out a chock,and, signing my father's namo to it, 1sent one of the employes of this 'den'to the bank, which cashed the checkunhesitatingly.

- "A few hours' play followed, and oncemore I wns broke. I nrosc from thattable, a forger of a parent's mum-, andrushing out of the. house I niiide myway to the river with the Intention ofending It all. On my way I had tocross a number of railroad trnclcH, andJuHt ns I reached them a long freighttrain came along, bound whither Iknew not, and rarcd lesn. 1 hoardedthe moving rum, and crawling up thealdeH I lay on the top of one of them,ami us I lay there my whole life cameto me, and In u moment of frenzy Ijumped from tlio now fiiHt movingtrain.

ing his warrant of arrest, seized Tong ,and hurried him nlouc in the directionof that dark portal through which all jmortals must pass. '

On the wny the devil, being in good :

humor over his success, chatted pleas- :nutly with Tong, who ventured to ask :him what he most abhorred and was imost afraid of. The devil made a fa- 'till blunder—ono wh ich might tiaveboon excusable for a mortal, hut was 'most H t u p l d for a devi l—ho told the .truth. He snld thn t lie 1mted and fear- ied but four terrestrial things—u branchof a thorn tree, an empty suit bug, aworn-out straw sandal of IHI ox, nud a jparticular kind of grass that grows In |Korea—the foxtail—and that when 'these were put together he could notgo wltiiih thirty feet of thorn.

But at Uarlel were the Gerona rifle-men, a gallant battalion that receivedthe hogs at fair range.

Invcnticatlon Shows that Coarse DarkHair Hctokena Successful Pcraonft,The htilr furnishes considerable sub-

ject for study, and much more thancareless observers would suppose, saysa writer In the Washington Star. It Isan Investigation that can easily ' bemade. The hair unquestionably indi-cates temperament and feeling, fine orcoarse, and character and constitution.Black hair accompanies what Is knownus the bilious temperament, whichgives power, endurance and strength.On the other hand, or head, possibly,light hair indicates the exact opposite,delicacy, fineness, and the lighter toneof character. Notice a person withauburn hair, and you will discover,easily, that his susceptibilities arequick. By the same reasoning red hairmurks a sanguine temperament, thosewho are possessed of Intense feelings,or ardent, fiery or passionate natures.As the hair Is curly or Inclined thatway, the emotional and Impulsive is In-dicated. A perfectly straight hair-tellsIts story to all who desire to know It,

Mrs. ELIZABETH WIIEF.LOCK, Magno-lia, Iowa, in the, following1 letter de-scribes her recovery from a very criti-cal condition:

But what! There Is compensation |for everything in th is world.

And in exchange the sailors who havoto handle these guna are persons ofvery little range.

So one th ing makes up for the other.Taking thin Into account, It Is easy to

explain why In the bombardment ofMatanzns, now celebrated In the annalsof modern history, no projectile felloven by mistake within the circuit of

hair who was not of a mild and tamonature? Those who have fine, lighthair, It will be noticed, while they cando almost any amount of Indoor work,are not to be depended on for heavy1

work. Here again they are the oppo-site of the black-haired people, whocan endure the heaviest and hardestkind of labor. Sandow, the strong moo,has light hair, but I don't think hewould be as reliable for heavy, con-tinued work as a black-hatred man ofhalf his strength.'

Here IB another thing to study. Thecoarser the hair the more the owner ofIt Is marked with Individuality Inthought, feeling, manner and action. Ido not think that any man or womanwhose hair Is fine can, by any possi-bility, ever make a great mark In pub-lic life. Fine hair may do well for thestudent, scientist or artist In a general

j way, but when you notice those who! have made the greatest marks in theseJ lines, you will discover that their hairj is coarse. The same rule holds good

with man and woman. The personwho has coarse, brittle hair—It mattersnot what color, though the darker ItIs the more strength of character'andpersistence there Is likely to be—has acareful mind generally, and is of a veryobserving nature. They also remem-ber what they see er hear for a longtime, nnd have, besides, the faculty ofrecalling what they have observed or

"I was growing worse all tho time,until I took your medicine.

"After taking three boxes of LydiaE. Pinkham's Vegetable CompoundLozenges, the tumor passed from me.

"My health has been better eversince, can now ftalk quite a distanceand am troubled no more with palpita-tion of the heart or bloating. I rec-ommend your medicine to all sufferersfrom female troubles." *

It is hardly reasonable to supposethat any one can doubt the efficiencyof Mrs., Pinkham's methods and medi-cine in the face of the tremendous vol-ume of testimony.

Suli.lect: "A Olorlonn Rpst"—This World'iWcnltli Can OIvo No Ponnnnont Sat-iH/nctlon—It ia Only In Heaven ThatSurcease From Sorrow Comes.

TEXT: "Arise yo, nnrt dopnrt; lor this lamot your rost."—Hlonli 2: 10.

Thb wns tho drum-bent of n prophet. who wnntod to rouso his people from tholroppressed nnd sinful condition; but It mayjust ns properly bo uttered now as then.Hells, hy Ions exposure nnd much rlnalng,lose their clearness of tone; hut this roii9-Ini? hell of tho Gospol strikes in as clear atone us when It first rang on the air.

As fnr ns I can see, your grent want andmine i? rest. From the time wo enter life,n grout mnuy voxntions nnd annoyancestnke nftor us. \Vo have our. holidays andour wneons of rocrentfon and qulot, but'whore is the mnn in this world who hasfound entire rest? The fnct Is that Goddid not nfhko this world to rest In. A shipmlgbf as wall go doivn off Cape Hntterns toflnd smooth water us a mnn. In this worldto flnd quiet. Prom the wny that God hasstrewn tho thorns, nnd hung tho clouds,nud stmrponed the tusks; from the ooldsthnt distress us, nnd tho heats that smite'MS, nnd tho pleurisies that stnb us, and thefovers that consume us, I know that He I<ltd not make this world as a place to loiter ]in. God does everything successfully; undthis world would he very different If It•were intended for us to lounge lu. It does ,light well for a few yenrs. Indeed, It Is jmagnlllcont! Nothing but Infinite wisdom !and goodness could have mixed thls-bev- |orneo of wnter, or hung up these brnckots-of stars, or tnUnod these voices of rill,nnd bird, nnd ocenn—flo that God has butto lilt His hand , and the whole worldbrenks forth into orchestra. But after all, |It Is only the splendors of a king's high-jv/ny,'1 over which wo are to march on to i•eternal conquests. .

You nnd I have soon men who tried to irest liero. They bulldod theniselves.greatstores. Thoy gathered around thorn the Ipatronage oi merchant princes. The voice-of their bid shook tho money markets.They had stock In the most successful rail-roads, nnd in safe-deposit ynults great rollsof Government securities. They had•emblazoned carriages, high-mettled steeds,footmen, pinto that confounded lords andsenators who snt at their tnblo, tnpestry onwhich flouted tho richest designs of foreignlooms, splendor o( cnuvns .on the walls, ex-•qulsiteness of music rising among pedestalsof.bronze, nnd dropping, soft ns light, ensnow of sculpture. Hero lot them rest.Tut bnck the embroidered curtain, andshako up the pillow of down. Turn outthe lights. It Is eleven o'clock at night.lot slumber drop upon the eyelids, and thenlr float through tlio half-opened lattice.<lrow»y with mid-suramor perfume. Standbank, all cure, anxiety and trouble! But jnol tbev will not stand back. They rattle |the lattice. They look under the canopy.\VIth rough touch they startle bis pulses.*l'h«y cry out at twelve o'clock nt night,"'Awake, man; how can you sleep whonthlnge arena uncertain? What about thosestocks?

flower."Napoleon wanted to make all Europe trem-ble at his power; made It tremble, thondied, his entire military achievementsdwindling down to a pair of military bootswhich he Insisted on having on his footwhen dying. At Versailles I saw a pletnreof Napoleon In his trluniphs. I went Intoanother room and saw a bust of Napoleonas ho appeared at St. Helena; but oh, whatgrlof and anguish in the face of tho latterlXho flrst was Napoleon in triumph, the last

Howthev laughoil and cried whan silver-tongued3he.ridan, In tho mid-day of prosperity,harangued the people ot Britain; and howthny howled at and execrated him whon,outside of thi> room where his corpso lay,h Is creditors tried to get his miserable bonesand sell thorn. >

This world for rest? "Aha!" cry thowatora, "no rest hore—we plunge to thesea-." "Aim!" cry tho mountains, "no resthern—wo crumble to the plain." "Aha!"cry tho towers, "no rost hore—wo followBabylon, and Thebes, and Nineveh Into thodust." No rest for the flowers; they fade,No rest for the stars; they die. No rest forman; he must work, toll, suffer, and slave.

Now, for what havo I said all this? Justto prepare you for the text: "Arise ye anddepart; for this Is not your rest." I amgoing to make you a grand offer. Sotno ofyou remember that when gold was discov-ered In California, largo companies weremade up and started off to got their for-tune, and n year ago for the same purposehundreds dared the cold of Alaska. To-day I want to make up a party for the landof God. I hold In my hand a deed from, theProprietor of the estate, in which He offersto all who will join the company ten thou-sand shares of infinite value, In a citywhose streets aro sold, whose hnrps aregold, whose crowns are gold. You haveread of the Crusaders—how that manythousands of them went to conauer theHoly Sepulchre. I ask you to join a grand-er crusade—not for the purpose of conquer-ing the sepulchre of n dead Christ, but fortho purpose of reaching the throne of aliving Jesus. When an army Is to be madeup, the recruiting officer examines tho vol-unteers; ho tests their eyesight; he soundstheir lungs; he measures their stature; theymust bo just right, or they are rejected.But there shall bs no partiality In makingup this army of Christ. Whatever yourmoral or physical stature, whatever your.dissipations, whatever your crimes, what-ever your weaknesses, I have a commis-sion from thc Lord Almighty to make upthis regiment of redeemed souls, and Icry, "Arise ye, and depart; for thisIs not your rest." Many of you haveIn'ely joined this company, and my desireIs that you all may join It. Why not? Youknow In your own hearts' experience thatwhat I havo said about this world Is true—that It Is no place to rest In, There ar»hundreds here weary—oh, how weary-weary with sin; weary with trouble; wearywith bereavement. Some of yon have beenpierced through and through. You carrythe scars of a score of conflicts, In •wblohyou have bled at every pore; nnd you sigh,"Oh, that I had tho wings of a dove, that Imight fly away and be at restl" You havetaken the cup of this world's pleasures anddrunk It to the dregs, and still tho thirstclaws at your tongue, nnd the fever strikesto your brain. You havo chased Pleasurethrough every valley, by overy stream,amid every brightness, and under everyshadow; but just at the moment whon youwort nil ready to put your hand upon therosy, laughing sylph of tho wood, sh»turned upon you with tho glaro of a lloudaud tho eyo of a satyr, her looks adders,ami her breath tho chill damp of a grave.Out of Jesus Christ no rest. No volou tosllcncn tho storm. No light to klndlo thodarkness. No dry dock to repair tho splitbulwark.

Thank God, 1 cna toll you somethingbettor. I f t ho ro l s no rost on earth, thoroIs rest In Heaven. Oh, yo who aro wornout with 'work, your hands calloused, yourhacks bent, your oyos half nut out, yourlingers worn wi th tho noodle, that In thisworld vou may never lay down; yo dla-couragod onus, who have been waging aband-to-hand f ight for broad; yo to whomthe night brings l l t t lo rent nnd tho m o r n i n gmore drudgery—oh, ye of the weury liiind,nnd the woary ?ld«, and the weary loot,beam me t a l k about r e ^ t l

v .— -- - '. - . . _„ .BATTLE OF THE ALAMa

i It Waa One of the Moat ThrillingFight* in American -Hiatory*

HE battle of th«Alamo, T e x a s ,was one of tagmost t n r i 11 i n afights In Ameri-can history, says ac o r r e s pondentThe M e x i c a nbombardment o Jthe place had last-ed eight days and

nights, almost without cessation.On the evening of the eighth day—It

was March 3, 1836—about two hourflbefore sunset. It suddenly ceased.

Col. Barrett Travers, taking advan-tage of the lull, Immediately collectedhis little army of patriots In single die,aud delivered to them one of the moststirring and portentous addresses ofhistory. Among other things he said:

"Our fate Is sealed. Within a fewdays—perhaps a few hours—we shallbe In eternity. • • « Our businessis not to jnalie fruitless efforts to saveour ilVea,"but"{o choose the manner ofour death. • • • Let us resolve towithstand our enemies to the last, andat each advance to kill as many of themas possible. Kill them as they scaleour walls! Kill them as they leapwithin! Kill them as they raise theirweapons and as they use thorn! Killtlicni as they kill our companions, andcontinue to kill them as long ae one ofus remains nllvel

"But I leave every man to hla choice.Should any man prefer to surrender orattempt to escape, he Is at liberty to doto. My own choice Is to stay In thofort as long us breath shall remain Inmy body nud die lighting! This will Ido even If you leave, me alone! Do anyou t h i n k best, but no man can mowith mo without affording mo comfortIn tlio hour of death!"

Col. Travers thon drew his sword,and with the point traced a line upontbe ground a few feet In front of hismen; then, resuming him position, homild:

"I now want every man who Is de-termined to wtuy and die, with mo toform upon that line."

With one exception thla order wasImmediately obeyed. Kvery nick manwho could walk aroue and tottered tohlH pluco. Col. Bowie, who wan dyingof typhoid fovnr, nuked that hl:i colmight bo carried to the line. The onoexception, u man mimed Itoae, couldnot 'nuiater milUclunt courage to rtMichtho mark. IIo WIIH allowed to attemptto escape and by u miracle succeededIn gutting through tho Mexican forces.Whon It was all over ho Wan thu onlynuui of tho gnrrlnou who wnn allvo.

SATURDAY. JULY 9, 1808.

The Spanish Fleet Destroyed!

Gen. Shatter continued his successfulfk'ht until close to the city of Santiago

e Cuba ; then it became evident that,ith the Spaniel fleet in the harbor,

he great Morro Fortress, and manymailer but strong forts all around, theLmerican army was not sufficientlytrong to capture the city by storm.)ur siege guns were not yet in positiono do effective work, and Gen. Shatterent word to Washington that, whilee was master of the situation, andould bold permanently all be had won,e considered it unwise to attempt anyurther forward movement until roin-orcements arrived.

So matters stood on Sunday morning,>nd everything seemed quiet after theerrible struggle ot the paat two or threeays. Admiral Sampson, in his flag-hip New York, steamed leisurely east-

ward several miles, to consult withSen. Shatter. About nine o'clock,iVithout warning, a vessel was seenoming out of Santiago harbor at fallpeed, headed toward the open sea. It

was the .Spanish Admiral Cevera's flag-hip, the magnificent Cristobal Colon,losely followed by his entire fleet, the

Vizcaya, Almiraute Oquendo, InfantaMaria Teresa, and the torpedo boatiestroyers Furor and .Pluton. Ourlett were suon in motion, under ordersf Commodore Schley, and closed in onbe Spaniards, and for two hours thereaged the most lurious combat evereen on the water. Commodore Schley,

CID bis flugbhip Brooklyn, the Masuachu-eius, Oregon, Indiana, Iowa, Texas,

and the little cruiser Gloucester, eachdid its pail well. The Spaniards hadmude a bold dash for liberty, knowingthat only destruction awaited them inthe trap which they had occupied forsis weeks. They fought bravely, show-

no indication of surrender, uutileach vetiBel, oue after another, piercediy American' bbot and shell, aud onfire, were driven onto the rocks orseach, and are now worthless hulks.Then they yielded, showed white Hugs,and bouts from our ships rescued ihosuwho survived the battle. AdmiralCeryera and nearly two thousand of hisofficers and men are prisoners of war.Our loss was ouo man killed aud twowounded. Not oue of our vessels wuadamaged.

This is the news that camo to us onMonday, aud added new zest to liiocelebration of our national holiduy.

On Sunday, Gen. Shatter sent wordto the Spanibh commander In Santiagothat unless the city surrendered by tuno'clock Monday, bo should begin bom-bardiuunt. Tho reply was a refusal.Hut foreign consuls requested untilTuesday noon to remove women andchildren. Of course this was grantedMonday's events caused a change ofplans, uud matters remained us theywore, up to Wednesday.

Monday night, the Iloina Mcrccdea,Ihu last o|i<) of Cervora's>ul ot [Santiago, mid soonlute of the others.

It i« reported thivt the Spanish war-ship Alfon/.o XII , which ban long beenIn Havana harbor, uttiiniptetl to encape,but was destroyed by sonic of our block-ading pqundroi).

On Thurmlay came the jrrntlf 'yinKnews that Lieutenant llotmnn and tinBtiv'ui) brave men who mink tho steamerMerrlmuc to block Huiilinjjo Imrbor, arn>m:o more (tun men, having been ox-•.liungcd for u Spanish lieutenant andlourtoun men. The party wore greeted'>y our ooldlors and Hullorn with wildiiitliushiHin. They uro well, and reportgood trunlniunl.

J86f If it had not been for the thoughtof the old maxim, "It's an ill wind thatblows nobody good," the EpworthLeague would have been greatly disap-pointed because of the storm on the 4th.As it was, bills were gotlen out post-poning the lawn social to Tuesday eve.,at Union Hall. The sky waS-ijustcloudy enough to enable the Japaneselanterns and the fireworks to show theirbest. Every available chair and benchwas taken up In the grove, and as manypeople were standing up. The greatfeature, of the program was a fl*g drillby about twenty girls; they were re-peatedly applauded. Our band, asusual, added much to the success of theaffair. Refreshments, including . icocream, cake, candy, pea' nuts and fruitwere on sale during the evening. Butthe most enjoyable part came with thefireworks, being a fine display, moreshowy than noisy,—a good selection.

Things did not go so smoothly on theFourth. The Clinton A. C. were kick-ers from way-back, and several timesstarted to leave the field. It's a pitythey didn't.

O YOU youngsters wanta war story," sighedGrancipa Sawyer, gl..nc-ing'fondly over the merry

' group of children and1 grandchildren that hadassembled to celebratehis sixtieth birthday; andwoudering what he couldpossibly say on this au-gust ocins.on that hadnot been repeated at leasta score of times.

"You might tell themabout the time you faint-

od dend away," suggested grandma,with her tender, pensive saille, as shjbent .caressingly over his latest name-sake fast nsleep In net arms.

Yielding to the clamorous, entreatiesof more than a dozen young voices, theveteran slow.ly proceeded: "Yon see,I was Just out of Andersonvllle, and aJlttle shaky even on an ordinary occa-sion, and this was a most extraordinaryoccasion, being the day your grandmagraduated at Holyoke.

"I first enlisted for three months, full.of right aud sure of victory, and I look-ed so flue and tall In my blue uniform,I thought I'd go and say good-by toDr. Miller's daughter. 1 was only acommon farmer, and she had anotherbeau, a student at Amherst, but 1 re-membered once at a party, when shehad to choose a partner, she selectedme Instead of dim; HO I thought I'd goand tell her 1 was off for Dixie In themorning. 1 thought maybe she'd cry alittle ns my mother did, or say some-thing line about my laying down myprecious life for the dear old flag; butshe didn't say much, and I didn't staylong, for Jim was there. /

"Martha went with me out j to thegate. I reached out my big, sunburnedhand, and she took It In both her ownand held It quite a bit, and she said:'Bennle, I'm sorry you're going to thuwar: you'ns too young a man, and toogood n man to stand up and be shot at.'Then Jim appeared on the HCCIIC, and 1went away half curHlng my hoiicHt•band for being so big and so brown,whllo Jim':.

"That .was too good a house to hi'long unoccupied, and Dr. Miller hadrented It to a needy family of lorelgn-ern, requesting that my room should bt.left Just as. my mother had last ar-ranged It.

"Oh! how I h.id cheered myself witha picture of that v.-;tltlng tea tahl.-!But I didn't drop down Into rjy accus-tomed place, for evt n the table hadbeen moycd into the l i t t le , overcrowded

How deliciounly softnnd clean the bed seemed, and 1 criedmyself to sloop like a tired, homesickbaby.

"The first thing I heard In the morn-ing waa, not the chirping of the robiua,as in the olden time, but the loud biuvl-iug of that steer calft under my win-dow. I covered ray head with the b?d-clotlies, .and was the poo;', weak babyover again. When I awoke later in tlieday good Dr. Miller was sitting by uiybedside. He helped me dress, IIIH! tookme home to breakfast, v.-heie the talk-ing, .as we!! as the cooking, \v:is allUnited States, but somehow I wasn'thungry, nnd longed to ask what hadbecome of Martha.

".I soon fount! out. Her father wasgoing to Holyoke tl:e very nest t'.ny tohear her valet'.ictory. and he took mealong with hi::i. It was a long drive,but we took It s:o';.v aad easy, arid Ihud my fill of ftu.sh air, and recoveredmy appetite. We were a little late tothe exhibition, and found the chapelalready crowded, but the good doctorfinally succeeded In getting a seat well«l> in front, and there, right before us.was Amherst Jim, Just as slim andwhite as ever. Ha fingered his walcnchain and petted bis mustache andmade his diamond glisten and devour-ed the platform with his eyes, just ashe used to In the old red scboolhouseirhen Martha was going to speak herpiece. Now he was a full-fledged phy-sician, and Dr. Miller's partner. Wehad a long time to wait. The essayswere lengthy and learned, and Martha'swas the very last. The other graduateswore white, but she was all in black,with a crape collar. 1 looked queation-Ingly Into Her father's face. He pijthis arm around me, nnd whispered:'She wears mourning for your mother—and for you.'

"For my mother and for me—oh! thepain of It! oh. the Joy of It! aud wheth-er it was the pain or the joy, or thecrowded room, or the way Jim lookedat Mirtha, I cannot tell, but somehoweverything clipped away Into nothing-ness.

"When I came back to consciousnessthe folks were nil gone, all but Dr.Miller and his daughter, and Marthawas holding me as handy as she Is hold-ing that blessed baby now, and I waajust aa quiet and submissive.

"I don't know much of anything butsubmission for a long time nfter that.,1 didn' t 'know I was helpless In bed inthe Miller mansion, with J im for nightwidth, mix ing the medicine to suit him-self, and always te l l ing Martha I wasslowly Improving, and I coultl not see jt'je nolseliKH hand t ha t was stretching ,a poiitnon bridge over the hint r)ver,but when my ha ml was wot with thecold surf.

ludicrous Incidents will creep in attimes of tragic events, and after thearfit shock of a tragedy la over, onelii'iirs of these little side Issues, andsomehow oi- other they seem to softenthe harshness of even a fatal occur-rence. says the Atlanta Journal. OnSatuiday evealn;;, whon the fatal col-lision tool: placi1 batwenn two cars onthe Traction ll'.ie. one of these little In-cidents cropped out. People were hur-i-ying hither and thither, looking afterthe wounded and dying, when an em-ploye of che street railway companycame upon a young man rushing to andfro In Jlie most frantic manner.

"Oh, I've lost my hat! .I've lost myhat!" moaned the young man, in seem-ing anguish, while his eyes roamedsearchlngly over the wreck.

"Oh. If that Is all," Said the streetcar employe, seemingly relieved thatanother fatality was not suspected."don't worry; the company will giveyou another hat."

"That's all right enough," said theexcited young fellow, "but your blam-ed company -can't give me back that'int," mid he rushed excitedly on, insearch of his missing tile. ~_^s>

I was In a railroad wreck once In theludlnn Territory. A passenger trainand a freight tried to pasa on the sametrack, and there was a fearful smash-up.

In the vicinity of one of the sleepers,I, found a gray-haired man walkinghither and thither rapidly, peeling withsearching eyes here and there into thedebris.

The conductor of the Pullman coachsaw him, and, rushing up, grabbed theman by the arm.

"It's all right, sir!" he exclaimed, Inthe tones of one who brings good tid-ings. ''Your wife nnd little girl areover there, and they are all right!'

"Ah, _yes," said the gray-haired pas-senger, jyltli ""seeming Indifference."Much obliged, but you haven't seenanything ol a Masonic watch charmanywhere, have you?" and his fingerstoyed with the end of a watch chainfrom which a pendant had evidentlybuns.

A half hour later tho man was In thefirst rank of the Indefatigable workerswho were engaged In rescuing Uiowounded from the wreck.

TOM BELL'S EXPLOITS.

The Caused New EiiglandcraI-ota of Trouble.

Throu'gliout tlioeeuth century the

'colonies were constantly vic'timized bya clever rogue named Tom Bell. He

hated and feared by, all good citizensand by hla fcllow-crinilr^ils also..

In the jear 1744 there was a marked, revival of religion in the middle colo- i

nies, nnd two ministers named JohnRowland nnd William Tennent n.liepastor of tlie Presbyterian Chiirch at 'Freehold, N. J.) were most prominentin tills spiritual awakening, and farand wide were universally beloved Midrespected. :

At tills time Tom Bell, garbed In a jcoat of s-ober. clerical cut, was. travel-Ing through New Jersey, nnd he chanc-ed to meet In a tavern at Princeton aMr. John Stockton, who addressed Bellns Mr. Rowland. Bell told him his mis-take, and Mr. Stockton then commentedupon the extraordinary resemblancethe stranger bore to the clergyman.This hint was enough for Totn Bell.The next day he promptly went to nneighboring town In Hunterdon, whereMr. Rowland had preached once ortwice, but was not Intimately acquaint-ed, and Introduced himself as the min-ister. He was warmly welcomed and

HOW TO SHAKE HANDS.

and Decidedly Novel Way— LeftHands Now Extended*.

There Is consternation In society andill on account of a handshake. It Isnew and so decidedly novel that- It Iscausing any amount of embarrassmentnmong the uninitiated. It is no longercorrect form for the modern girl ofswelldom to extend In greeting herdaintily glovecl right hand. It Is herleft hand she must offer; for the new-est society handshake Is entirely a left-handed affair. Not to be prepared forthis sudden eccentricity of fashion Ismost embarrassing. To look perplexedwhen the left hand Is outstretched toyou In welcome or to grasp It with yourright hand now Is an unpardonablebreach of etiquette, and in addition tothfa, not to be familiar with the newhand shake stamps you at once as out-side society's exclusive circles.

SANTIAGO SURRENDERED!

/ On Thursday morning, the Spanishtroops still occupied Santiago. Verylittle fighting had been done op to thattime. Gen. Shatter received reinforce-ments, and reported bis lines completeall around the enemy's position, withartillery well posted. He sent word toGen. Toral, Spanish commander, de-manding immediate surrender. Thisbeing refused, bombardment was begun,but a white flag stopped it, and Gen.Toral offered to surrender tbe city andharbor and fortifications, provided thearmy be allowed to march out unmo-lested, 'and have twenty miles startwithout pursuit. Of course this wasnot accepted, but an "unconditionalsurrender" insisted on. The Spaniardsaid he had no authority to accept theterms, and nfust fight to a finish. Bat,at bis request, tbe armistice was con-tinued until Thursday noon. Up toWednesday night, nothing definite hadresulted, the Madrid authorities decli-ning to further modify their orders, andFresident M'Kinley insisted that longerdelay should not be allowed. It wasfeared that during tbe cessation of- hos-tilities, and before our lines had beenextended, the bulk of the Spanish armyhad evacuated Santiago and marchedtoward the interior by a road leadingwestward. Tbe latest offer from ourauthorities was, in case of immediatesurrender, onr government would trans-port the prisoners, except officers, toSpain, chartering vessels of a neutralpower for the purpose. Certainly anovel proposition, and a wise one.

It is evident that' if the Spanish offi-cials at Madrid could be transported toCuba, the war would be ended in a fewhoars. There are now rumors of peacepropositions, — even stating that onrFresident and Cabinet have been con-sidering the mattter; but Spain's offeris nowhere near our demands, and shewill not yet accept ours. So tbe matterstands, and we'll have to accept Toral'aInvitation, — "It you want Santiago,come and get It."

At Manila, German warships seerndisposed to court trouble by petty Inter-ferences. The insurgents attempted tocapture Isla Grande, In Sable Bay, butwere told by the German cruiser Irenethat they would not bo allowed to doso. They reported the matter at onceto Admiral Dewey. He quietly senttho Raleigh and Concord around there,with Instructions to capture tbo island.Do thulr appearance, the German sailedout of the bay. One shot induced theSpaniards to surrender, with 1800 menand considerable other stuff.

Tho men of bis fleet are said to"worship Dewey," and who can blamethem ?

Admiral Cervora and his fellow cap-tives are now on American soil,—atPortsmouth, N. H. Tho old gentWaais naturally vary despondent, but hlamen, with good quarters, plentyJ<o eat,and nothing to do, oocm happy.

Just after noon on Thursday, wordwas received at Washington, Irom Gen.Slmfler, that during a personal inter-view Qon. Toral had agreed to an un-conditional surrender of Santiago andall tbe troops under hla command,—estimated variously by our authoritiesaa Irom 10,000 to 87,000 men. Undertho offer made by Uuclo Barn, theae areall to bo transported to Spain. This lamuch bettor than to bring them to thoStates, provide, quarters, food, clothing,medicine and guards, and tako tho riskof spreading contagious disease.

IXitalle of tho surrender wore notcompleted wben Gen. rjbaftur reported,wico liavo not buon published up toour tlmo for utolng to press. Tito barefaet ol unconditional surrender, withouturthor bloodshed, Is glorious news, utid

wo publish It thankfully.It Booms probable that military opera-

tions la Cuba will bo discontinued untilho rainy aoaeoa has passed.—eoMlerswing moved to a more healthful camp

among the bills.Unless Bpuln novr rcada the writing i

on tbo nail, and sues for peace, It la

proposed to immediately dispatch shipsand troops to Porto Rico, and a fleet ofour best warships to Spain.

Those " economical" Congressmenwho have fought every step m the devel-opment of the Country's modern navyare now in position to see what thesuccess of their j policy would havemeant. It would bave meant nationalhumiliation' so deep and bitter as tohave made pariotic Americans ashamedof their country. It is to be hopedthat the lesson has sunk deep into theirhearts, and that there will be no morepicayune politics injected into the navaland military appropriations.

Millions Given Away.It is certainly gratifying to the public

to know of one concern in the land whoare not afraid to be generous to the needyand suffering. The proprietors of Dr.Sing's Kew Discovery for Consumption,Coughs and Colds, have given away overten million trial bottles of- this greatmedicine ; and have the satisfaction ofknowing it bos absolutely cured thous-ands of hopeless cases. Asthma, Bron-chitis, Hoarseness and all diseases of theThroat, Chest and Longs are surelycured by it. Call on Dr. GK M. Crowell,Druggist, and get a trial bottle free.Regular size 60o. and $1. Every bottleguaranteed, or price refunded.
