Yes, quietly with my album,
Thinking of other yearn,
.My heart is sad and lonely,
And my eyes arc full of tears.
As I turn o'er its pages.
How many names 1 Bee
Of frien.Is and school-mate, too,
Who were so dear to me!
One name—one dear, sweet name.
Is now before my eve,
I gaze at it with sadness,
Yea, how my heart clot h sigh !
In long, long years—years ago,
I had a school-mate dear.
And in my album she did write,
And left her sweet name here.
Here on this leaf so pure and while.
She penned a prayer for me—
A prayer that ever lirings a tear,
lint it I love to see.
I never more shall see her faee,
In Ihis ooldjworld of ours;
Koron a cold Autumnal day,
She drooped away with tinners.
ISnt in that home—that home above,
I hope her faee to see—
1 es, Jennie dear we'll meet again,
Meet in the"<;reat To He."
There we ran talk our school-days o'er,
Talk of the days of vore—
Unn sweet, dear .lennie,.will it he.
To meet to part no more!

As he was not Permitted to Talk Pol-itics
he told Several Jokes.
Loud calls for Senator Vance in-duced
him to make a few remarks.
He said: '• When I received your
summons to attend on this interest-in};
occasion your secretary told
me how delighted you would all be
to see me, and added that no poli-ties
were wanted. I accepted the
hard conditions. After I had got
here and went to a room my friend.
Dr. Boykin, came up and said, •Re-member,
no polities to-night.' I
had not enjoyed more than one
drink nl this table when your hon-ored
president said: -You know
no politics are wanted here. You
can speak on any other subject,
though.1
I will tell you a story. Down in
the mountains of North Carolina
an old gentleman went to visit his
brother-in-law's family. After a
night's sleep and before breakfast
he -aw one of his nephews making
some mysterious gestures. He fol-lowed
him to the shuck pit, from
which the nephew drew a bottle of
corn whiskey stopped with a corn
Coll. Said he: " Now, Uncle Jim,
you know we're all temperance and
prohibition here, but 1 keepa little
I'm- my own private use. and, think-ing
you might be in the habit of
takin' a drink before breakfast, I
would be glad to have you jine me.
Hut keep awful quiet, for they're
all temperance here." Uncle Jim
refreshed himself and on his way
back to the house he perceived his
other nephew making the same
mysterious gestures. He followed
him to the corn crib, from which
his guide pulled another bottle of
whiskey, and said: "Now, uncle
Jim. you know we are all temper-ance
and prohibition here, but I
keep a little hid for my especiul use.
and I'd be glad if you'd take a lit-tle
with me. Hut for the Lord's
sake don't tell the old folks for
.''they're powerful set against drink-ing.'"
lie had the same experi-ence
with the old man, who had
rheumatism, and the old woman,
who had neuralgia and pains in the
Btomach. When he got to break-fast
he was pretty full. Now that
is the cause with me in spite of re-peated
warnings. 1 must say a lit-

Ladies Love Tobacco.
Inquiry at a few of the principal
tobacco stores of London has re-vealed
the fact that smoking is
very fashionable among women,
especially among those of the up-per
ten. •• We are used to being
asked for ladies' cigarettes here,"
said .i salesman at one of the big
stores. " We serve ladies with
cigarettes in as matter of-fact a
way as we do gentlemen. Not only
do ladies smoke cigarettes."' he
went on, " some of them smoke
cigars. One lady comes in frequet-ly.

almost the costliest brand we keep."
Eaten by Wolves.
V'IEKKA, Feb. 11.—Horrible re-poris
of depredations by wolves
have been received from Ssandu,
Hungary. On Baron Wodiauer's
estate alone twenty peasants have
been devoured by the ravenous
beasts. The government authori-ties
me organizing a parly of hun-ters
which will undertake the ex-termination
of the wolves.
"You people are talking so much
about Indian affairs now," snid Wil-son
L. Jones, of Washington City,
at the Hotel Vendom, "that I am
reminded of a story I heard recent-ly
about a peculiar Indian agent.
"It seems that some years ago
there was a certain politician who
had been promised a 'good thing'
by a Republican Senator whom he
had helped to elect. Shortly after
the Senator went to Washington
the politician was appointed as In-dian
Agent. He was crazy with
wrath and, taking the train, hur-ried
to Washington to have it out
with the Senator. When ho arriv-ed
in Washington he drove at once
to the Senator's hotel and told him
in strong terms that $3,000 a year
in the wild West was a poor return
for his services to the Senator. He
was going to decline the officcand
the Senator could look out.
"The Senator was startled, but
anxiously inquired if he had al-ready
sent his letter declining the
appointment. 'No,' said the angry
politician, 'but,' showing a letter
which he took from his pocket,
'I'm going to mail it as soon as I
leave here.'
"The Senator felt better and
went on to tell the henchman what
a good thing the berth of an Indian
agent is. The politician sat with
open mouth and shining eyes while
the Senator showed that the appro-priation
for his particular reserva-tion
was something over $1,000,000,
the Indians did not know howmuch
they were to get, the people to be
seen were few and by giving, eay,
$.■100,000 worth of supplies to the
Indians the agent could pocket the
difference. After the Senator had
finished he smiled as the agent-elect
tore up the letter of declina-tion,
but was rather taken aback
as his pupil said :
" -Senator, don't you think $300.-
000 a heap of money to waste on a
lot of worthless Indians?'''
Bismarck "Eats Dry"
Very Smart Old People.
SCKANTOX, Feb. 11.—Mrs. Laura
Reynolds of Factoryville is a bright
and active woman of nearly 80
years of age. During 1800 Mrs.
Reynolds wove 1,000 yards of rag
carpet, pieced six bed quilts, and
did her housework besides.
Mr. Burgess Smith of Clifford
township, Susquehanna county,
can beat Mr. Gladstone at swing-ing
the axe. He is a year or so
older than the Grand Old Man,
and frequently he shoulders his
axe, marches to the woods, and
chops down and piles up two cords
of maple wood in a day. He has a
woodchopper's appetite, and he
sleeps ns soundly as n healthy
baby.
Uncle Charley Fordham, who
lives with his son William in Wind-bam
township, is a pretty long-winded
pedestrian for n man in his
110th year. One day this winter he
got it into his head that he wanted
to see his son Walter, who lives
twenty-one miles from William's
place, and, without sayinganything
to William's folks about it, he
started out on foot and paced off
the distance in a little over six
hours.
$500 iN ASHES.
Put his Money in the Stove and
Then Built a Fire.
ST. Loris, Feb. 11.—James Gaff-ney,
living with his family at No.
7304 North Broadway, is an indus-trious
I ri-Inn a ii. and has saved
considerable money. He had about
$2,800, which he placed in a small
wooden box and concc lied it in an
unused parlor stove. Last Sunday
afternoon he started a fire in the
stove. In a few minutes his wife
thought of the money, and a fran-tic
struggle began to rescue it from
the lire. About $500 was entirely
destroyed, and the balance badly
mutilated.
Powdorly on That Third Party.
DES MOIXES, Iowa, Feb. 11.—The
State convention of the Knights of
Labor began its sessions here to-day.
T. V. Powdcrly spoke. He
said the industrial classes will
make their demands effectually
heard. The farmers and indus-trial
classes of cities were practi-cality
agreed in what they wanted,
and, he believed, would work to-gether.
Whether or not these
classes will unite and form a third
party for 1892 depends upon the
position taken by the other parties.
If they agree to give the farmers
of the West and factory hands of
the Fast what they require there
will be no need for a separate poli-tical
party.
DIED TO SAVE CHILDREN.
Simon Joseph's Heroism Brings Him
to His Grave.
NEW YORK, Feb. 11.—An act of
heroism cost the life of Simon
Joseph, who died on Sunday. Two
little girls were crossing Broadway
in front of the. Herald building oil
last Thursday and run directly be-fore
a team attached to a carriage.
Mr. Joseph rushed through the
maze of vehicles and grasping the
reins of the houses stopped them
just in time to prevent the chil-dren
being run over. In stopping
the horses he strained n valve of
the heart and died on Sunday.
Passage of a Secret Ballot Measure.
LINCOLN, Neb.. Feb. 11.—In the
house to-day Porter's Australian
ballot bill was passed without a
single dissenting vote.
At luncheon I observed that
Prince Bismarck drank nothing
with his food, and asked him wheth-er
"eating dry" was a habit of his
own choice or an article in the
ilietn cetletio drawn for him by his
famous " Leibartz," Dr. Sweninger.
"The latter," he replied, "I am
only allowed to drink thrice a day
—a quarter of an hour after each
meal—and each time not more than
half a bottle of red, sparkling
Moselle of a very rtght and dry
character. Burgundy and beer, of
both of which I am extremely fond,
are strictly forbidden to me; so
are all strong Rhenish and Spanish
wines, ond even claret. For some
years past I have been a total ab-stainer
from all these generous
liquors, much to the advantage of
my health and my ' condition,' in
the sporting sense of the word.
" Formerly I used to weigh over
seventeen stone. By observing this
regimen I brought myself down to
under fourteen, and without any
loss o* strength—indeed, with gain.
My normal weight is now 185
pounds. I am weighed once every
day by my doctor's orders, and any
excess of that figure I at once set
to work to get rid of by exercise
and special regimen, I ride a good
deal, as well as walk. Cigar smok-ing
I have given up altogether, of
course, under advice. It is debil-itating
and bad for the nerves. An
inveterate smoker, such as I used
to be, probably gets through 100,-
000 cigars in his life if he reaches
a fair average age. But he would
live longer ^and feel better all his
time if he did without them. Now-a-
days I am restricted to a long
pipe, happily with a deep bowl, one
after each meal, and I smoke noth-ing
in it but Dutch Kanusler to
bacco, which is light, mild and
soothing—ITew York- Slnr.

Reduced in
Judges' Salaries.
It is not the purpose, if we un-derstand
the matter, of the Farm-ers'
Alliance, to dole out niggardly
salaries to public servants. The
Alliance demands the selection of
the very best talent for the places
of honor and trust which society
has created for its own protection.
If the very best talent for public
ollices is to be secured, it goes with-out
argument that good and suf-ficient
salaries must be paid. We
think this position is prescribed,
not by patriotism alone, but by
simple justice and common sense
as well. How can the State usk a
man to take an office for the well-being
and protection of its interest
at a clear loss to him of several
thousand dollars per year? And
yet this is just what is doing is
doing in North Carolina to-day.
There is not, we suppose, a man on
the bench in North Carolina at the
present time who did not go upon
it at a clear loss to himself and
family. Now, is this right? Is it
just and fair? Is it good policy.
We are not in favor of extravagant
salaries for any class of public
officers. But we are in favor of
such salaries as are just and fair
both to officers and to the people.
We think the salaries of the Judges
in North Carolina should be in-creased,
and such a mileage should
be given them as will cover their
necessary expenses while traveling
in dischurge of their duties, and
then they ought to be forbidden to
accept of passes or favors of any
kind from corporations who are
liable at any time to become suit-ors
in their courts. In adequate
pay to public officials is very
poor economy indeed.—Progreuiee

The Tramp Could Fiddle.
A down town music store in
Lewiston was surprised on Friday
at the entrance of a tram))—a rng-ged,
vetran tramp, who said that
he was not vicious, but only unfor-tunate.
" What made you come
into a music store?" asked the
proprietor. The thin cheeks of
the tramp Hushed as-ie said. " I'm
a musician."
Having said that he played the
violin they handed him, and he
laid a loving cheek against the
fiddle and drew a bow of finished
jiower across the trembling strings.
For half an hour he played to a
rapt audience, preluding with the
skill of the improvisator and weav-ing
the theme into many an airy
fancy of the strings. Sometimes
he marched up and down the Boor
playing and talking. A new light
was borne in his eye. His rags
were forgotten by all who saw him.
His cheeks were flushed and his
gray hair was tossed back by an
impetuous wave of his head. In
the imagery of the strings were
palaces of delight and strange
visions of wasted hopes and years.
In the pleading voice of the violin
one heard a voice of long ago, a
mother's tone, and a baby's cry.
"That's all right," said he as he
laid it down, and a silence fell upon
all around broken by the querulous
voice of the tramp.—lleralil.
RAILROAD COMMISSION BILL.
address the meeting as you request,
but I am glad that the business in
terests of New York are at least to j more and li
be heard on the subject. It surely
cannot be necessary for me to make
a formal expression of my agree-ment
with those who believe that
the greatest perils would be intima-ted
by the adoption of the scheme
embraced in the measure now
pending in Congress for an unlim-ited
coinage of silver at our mints.
If we have developed an unexpect-ed
capacity for the assimilation of
a largely increased volume of the
currency, and even if we have de-monstrated
the usefulness of such
an increase, these conditions fall
far short of insuring us against
disaster, if in the present situation
we enter upon the dangerous and
reckless experiment of free, un-limited
and independent silver
coinage. Yours very truly,

the Editor to the Governor.
ALBANY, Feb. 12.—Gov. Hill this
afternoon, when shown the letter
purporting to be from Henry Wat-terson,
published in the Baltimore
Sun this morning, said:
"I never received any such letter.
It is the first I have heard of it. It
must be a forgery. Mr. Watterson
is a good Democrat and a gentle-man,
and I believe him incapable
of addressing such an insulting
ond impertinent communication to
me."
Watterson's alleged letter was
dated Washington, Nov. 12,*lS90.
It advises Hill, in- the interest of
Democratic harmony, and success,
to make peace with Cleveland, sta-ting
that even though New York
sent a solid delegation, to the Na-tional
convention in 1S02 against
Cleveland the balance of the coun-try
would be for him. He said:
'•There are Democrats in every part
of the United States who believe
you defeated the national ticket in
1888. I know that to he false. I
have steadily defended you in pub-lic
and in private. • • These
are true words, and I have no rela-tions
with you which give me the
right to offer you counsel. They
may be disagreeable words, and I
have no desire to obtrude upon
privacy. But they are true words,
and I claim the right of a Demo-crat
who has some knowledge of
the country at large, and has given
some proof of intelligent devotion
to party interests, to ignore cere-mony
and send them to you."
