Of course If he lmd como into this world at that ronioto period he would not be alive to-day, but there are people who could not bocome reconciled to Johns absence without much difficulty.

Had Jobn been the contemporary of Perseus of Achilles the Greeks would have defied him, and groat men would have sot lip nights to write groat lines about him. He might have had a stellar constellation named after him instead of being forced to content himself with seeing his name carved upon the stern of an occasional canal boat, or a blear-eyed bull-dog respond to it. When clubs were trumps men like John L. bocame kings, and had their busts in the cupitol instead of a subcellar saloon. But David, the sweet singer of Israel, inauguiatod a now era in which brain is boss.

Goliath, of Gath, was much bigger than our John. Ho was five feet taller and put up accordingly. He traveled exclusively on his shape, and for forty days bluffed a whole army. Then David went forth to see about it. David was not very big and had never taken boxing lessons nor had his general health certified to by a physician who was figuring to get a little advertising without fracturing the medical code of ethics.

But he had a sling in his hip pocket. The sling was to David what the six-shooter was to the erstwhile Jesse of the tribe of James. David loaded his ling with rock, slang it, and Col. Goliath was knocked over the ropes in the first round. That wound up the undisputed rule of the big uns.

The lay of their destiny was over, and the star of their fate had crawled down to the leyel of other people. The six-shooter makes nil men equally tall." Globe-Democrat. AN ESSAY ON MAN.

Ho returncth at eventide and mocteth a whcolbarrow in his path, and the wheelbarrow riseth up and smitheth him to the earth, and falleth upon him and runneth one of its legs into his oar. Ho layctli up riches in the bank and the president speculateth in margins and then gocth to Canada for his health, In tho autumn he putteth on his winter trousers, and a wasp that abideth within them filleth him with intense excitement. He starteth down-cellar with an oleander, and goeth first hastily, and the oleander commeth after him and sit-teth upon him.

Quite a number of foreign yachts are likely to bo in Chicago at the time of the world's fair. Robert S. McCormick, representative of the exposition in' England, makes announcement to that effect.

All depends on how favorable are the faeilitics for getting through the Canadian canals and for safe anchorage in Chicago. At his request full particulars on these points will be furnished. Rotting tree stumps may be easily removed in this way: With a one-and-a-quarter inch auger bore a hole In the center of the stump about eighteen inches deep, and put In twenty ounces of saltpeter, fill the hole with water, and plug It tight. In the spring take out the plug, pour into the hole a halfpint of crude petroleum, and set it on fire. The stump will burn and smolder to the end of the roots, leaving nothing but ashes.

A short time ago, whilo the Northwestern Shingle association was in session, it was announced to that body that the Washington State world's fair building would require 837,000 shingles for its roof. Thereupon the association promptly instructed its secretary to buy that number of shingles and to donate them to the world's fair board for the state. The quarrymen, lumbermen and loggers of Washington have been equally generous, and almost ull the building material that is required has been donated. Daniel Potter, an old resident ol Gloucester, once called the attention of his guests to an old clock, a great favorite of his. He told his friends of his great attachment to this ancient time-piece, and said, in a voice full of emotion: Gentlemen, I have wound up that clock every night for more than forty years.

He had evidently made an impression on his visitors, when one guest, who had been carefully examining the clock, turned the tide of feeling evoked by the story by saying, dryly: Well, I always did think you were something of an idiotl Thats an eight-day clock! There is probably nowhere in the United States an odder people than the mountaineers in the remote districts of West Virginia. These people welcomed the civil war less from sympathy with secession than from a feeling that the disordered state of the country made it easier to manufacture moonshine whisky. The stone boat of the quarry is often substituted for a wheeled vehicle in drawing loads down the mountains, and the people are so unfamiliar with the amenities of civilized life as to be ignorant of many words in common use among better educated country folks. Mr. Rossers critter compny was the mountaineers phrase for Gen.

Rossers cavalry. A beautiful marble palace, much resembling the White House at Washington in its architectural effect, will, when completed, be the summer home of Mr. W. K. Vanderbilt and family at Newport The house has been three years in building, and the utmost secrecy regarding its plan and ornamentation has been observed.

The interior is of Numidian marble and Mexican onyx, and thirty skilled Frenchmen have been steadily working for three months carving it in the most elaborate manner. The magnificent entrance gates, modeled after the entrance of the palace of Versailles, butfarsur- Eassing them in magnificence, are two undredand fifty feet wide, sixteen feet high and weigh fifteen tons. The Puritan fathers were greatly addicted to smoking. Indeed, the practice became so common thut even these straight-laced observers of times and seasons actually smoked in church. This oustom soon caused very considerable annoyance, as the religious exercises were greatly disturbed by the clinking of flints and steels to light their pipes, and by the clouds of smoke in church.

Hence, in the year 1609, the colony passed this law: It is enacted that any person or persons that shall be found smoking of tobacco on the Lord's day, going to or coming from the meetings, within two miles of meeting-house, shall pay twelve pence for every such default Under this law several persons were actually fined, but the punishment failed to secure the carrying out of the arbitrary second portion of the enactment Two of a Kind. That was a good article you published that one of Wolseleys on Gen. Sherman. Glad you Uked it Im going to have another of the same kind next month. What is it to be?

The Cholera In Tins Valley is 1807. Wm. Matbewson, the original Buffalo Bill, is home from the Black Range in New Mexico. We had a pleasant talk with him yesterday, in which he told ns about killing three bears and a deer on September 4th sear his stage line station, This seemed to be an ordinary affair with William, wbo Las hunted and trapped and scouted from British Columbia to the Gulf of Mexico. We remarked: You people up in the Black Range arc not afraid of the spread of cholera? No; and Im not afraid of it down here.

Were you here when the cholera raged in 1867? Yes; I was freighting. My headquarters were where the Woodman residence now stands. I was also in the employ of the Interir Department making treaties with the Indians. The cholera came along in the latter part of August and it slaw the Indians by Hundreds of dead bodies lay along Little River bloated in the sun. I went among the tribes Wiebitas, Delawares and Otoes and scattered them to the higher ground, for their huddling together along the river was simply a a clean swine out.

I took a train of provisions to the troops on the Wash-ta; all along the trail we saw dead Indians, left by the tribes where they died, and tho bodies were especially numerous around springs and along creeks. The colored troopB suffered terribly at the fort. How did you manage to escape the plague?" "I bad a chest of medicine and I kept myself and my men in good condition, and clean externally. No grey back was carried in our outfit: and I would not allow a man to eat a particle of vegetables not even the wild goose plums so abundant along the valleys. A BAD DEATH.

The sudden death of Mr. C. A. Tracy casts a gloom over the vicinity in which he once lived. A mother and son, beside a host of friends, are left to mourn the loss of a devoted husband, a kind father and a good and upright, peaceful citizen.

Mr. Tracy was an employee of the Santa Fe railroad, as car-repair, and at the time of his death was fulfilling his duties in that position. It seems that a switch had been misplaced, and while Mr. Tracy was standing between two cars at work, the engine shoved a car, which took the wrong track and coming in contact with the unrepaired cars, caught him between them, causing instant death. The deceased was a Mason and had an insurance in that organization of $2,000.

A CHOLERA CURE. Professor Schwenninger, of Munich, Bavaria, physician in ordinary to Prince Bismarck, says i The plague this year, follows the march of the great epidemics it attacks Europe by the north, not by the south.

It was bound thon to reach Hamburg, since tho authorities of Rnssta in Europe took no steps to stop it. The English officials in India took proper precautionary measures, There ought to be an international hygienic commission established. That is the way to kill cholera. It must be strangled out on the spot other measures are useless. In Hamburg about thirty thousand persons dwell in cellars and livo on fish.

An epidemic is inevitable and it is almost impossible to prevent it from running right through Germany. It is only in healthy places, clean towns and among the well-nourished that the malady will amount to little. In that case there may be ten or only one case, according to the size of population, but not tlmusauds as in Hamburg. If you become ill, drink as hot as ever you can, grog, camomile tea. no matter what, provided it is hot.

Then if your Jjmbs become cold plungo into a steaming hot hath. Should these produce no effect then put yourself in the hands of God, for those are the only remedies known to be efficient, The doctors can do nothing. But dont be afraid of cholera. Those only are afraid who live in dirty towns and who have not tried to ameliorate the condition of the poor, and having neglected to do what they ought to have done, they have prepared the way for epidemics.

That rally of the Demo-Populists on the 13th was a full and fair showing of the combined strength of the allied hosts, arrayed against the Republican party. It was full because they turned out in full force, men, women, children, toot, horse and dragoon. It was fair in size because the procession occupied over two hours time in passing a giving point. It was also a fair illustration of the extremes of inconsistency. Following a leadership that proclaims hard times and hungry women and children were about 800 1,400 women and children, hale and hearty, fat teams, good vehicles, 27 loads of fine wheat to be sold to secure, (not food for the alleged hungry children) but for campaign axle grease.

Soon following the wheat wagons was a team and vehicle with three honey horses tethered behind, and the calnmityite driving howled at intervals, pointing to the poor, neglected horses, Heres yer living Republican bat-racks! The Alliance people held a big powwow Tuesday. They came in to take the town. They brought their teams, buggfes and wagons, they brought banners, they brought corn, wheat and oat displays, they brought the children and the dogs, but they didnt bring any money into town, oh, yes, they brought their dinners and consequently the hotels were not rushed, Cook (to hotel proprietor) Don't yon want me to get up an extraordinary laige dinner The Alliance people will be into day. Proprietor No, just cook the average dinner, but tell the porter to make a tub of red lemonade and sell it for five cents a glass. You were a prize fighter once, I believe Yes, and 1 was remarkably successful.

I whipped every man I met, and at one time intended to challenge the champion. Why didnt you Well, just about that time I got married and the conceit was taken out of nie. It is said that one of the banners in the Alliance parade bore the following: PaSN toWnShlP. But we are not going to cast any reflections. Probably the "farm boy" was just using np some of the white-wash that was left in the hen-coop since last spring.

This talk of Sullivan receiving $100, 000 for letting Corbett whip him is all bosh The fact is, Sullivan was whipped and whipped badly, too. The best think Sullivan can do is to go to sawing wood. Chicago, the great moral city, the modern Jerusalem, has prohibited horse-racing. Now if the good people could stop rushing the growler" on Sunday, oh, how nice it would be.
