A WAR ECHO.
EVERY HONORABLE VETERAN
DESERVES HIS PENSION.
And tho tone I4mb Is Not the Only
Beacon for a Government Re
ward Either.:
(From the Journal, Le^iston, Me.)
Samuel R. Jordan has ju»t given th«
Journal .an account of his life, which
in view Of his extremely hard ldt for the
past few years is of great interest.
"I am 48 years.old and have always
lived in New Portland. I enlisted iri
the army in 1862 as a private in Com
pany A Twenty-eighty Maine Volun-*
taers. "My army experience injured my
health to some extenti although I
worked at blacksmithing Bome'part of
the time, when suddenly, several years
ago, 1 was prostrated with what able
physicians pronounced Locomptor
Ataxia. At flrst I could £et around
fiomewhat, yet the disease progressed
quite rapidly until I had hardly any
feeling in my legs and feet, they felt
like sticks of wood, and I grew so much
Worse that I could not move for three
Jrears without help, as my neighbors
and friends could testify. I employed
several physicians in my vicinity, and
elsewhere, and they all told me that
medicines would not help me, that
they could do nothing to effect a cure
and that in time I should become en
tirely helpless. I became discouraged.
I wan a great care to my wife and
friends. Shortly after I met an old
army comrade, Mr. All. Parlin, a resi
dent of Madison, Me., and he incidently
mentioned how he had tried Dr. Will
lams' Pink Pills for a severe case of
rheumatism and a spinal and malarial
trouble, that he had suffered with con
sequent of his army life, and had been
greatly benefited by their use. By his
earnest recommendation I was induced
to try the pills. After taking them for
a time I began to feel prickly sensations
in my legs and a return of strength so
I could move them a little. After a few.
weeks I began to feel a marked im
provement in my conditon. I soon was
enabled to walk around a little with'
the help of crutches. After taking for
some time I can now walk without
crutches, my general health is much Im
proved and I have regained my old
time vigor. I can walk about and enjoy
life once more, for which I feel very
thankful, and this happy result is due
to the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills."
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale Peo
ple were flrst compounded as a
prescription and used as such in
general practice by an eminent
physician. So great was their effi
cacy that it was deemed wise to
place them within the reach of all. They
are now manufactured by the Dr. Will
iams' Medicine company, Schenectady,
N. Y., and are sold in boxes (never in
loose form by the dozen or hundred, and
the public are cautioned against num
erous imitations sold in this shape) at
50 cents a box, or six boxes for $2.50, and
ir.ay be had of all druggists or direct by
mall from Dr. Williams' Med. Co.
ABOl'T 11 LI SUING AVOMEN.
Some JPeiv of Tliwm Still Exist In
Spite of I lie Cynic*.
Some "time apro a man took it 'upon
himself to assert that the modern
woman has forgotten how to blush.
TIMS imputation was launched at fem
ininity in general with so much bitter
ness and asperity that one might gath
er therefrom mat Diusnmg is a virtue,
and that not to blush is criminal.
Whatever the connection between this
sudden heightening of color and inno
cence in the case of women, however,
the blush is considered a sign of grace
by men. Cynics have always main
tained that women can cry about any
thing. and at. a moment's notice, and
it is pretty well known that many ac
tresses can squeeze out real tears
nightly at the proper moment: but
blushing is more difficult to acquire as
an art. Klushes are evidently con
sidered as important by the generality
of men. For instance, to call a man
"an unblushing scoundrel," is a dis
tinct slur on his character, and to tell
another that you blush for him used
at one time to be a pretty common
form of insult. Even now the phrase,
"we blusli to relate" is to be found in
our dail.v newspapers. 'I he poet Young
lays it down in his "Night Thoughts"
that "the young man who blushes is
not quile a brute." Darwin's observa
tions determined the fact that blush
ing is confined to the human species.

EvanBellot Moody Mulccn Up HI* Ser
mon* From All Sort* of Material.
Ills method of sermon-ranking Is orig
inal, s:iys McClure's Magazine, tn real
ity liis sermons are never made—they
are ahvays still in the making. Sup
pose the subject is "Paxil." He lakes
a monstrous envelope, capable of hold
ing some hundreds of slips of paper,
labels it "Paul." and slowly stocks it
with original notes, cuttings from pa
pers. extracts from books. Illustrations,
scraps of all kinds, nearly 01' remotely
referring to the subject. After accumu
lating these, it may lie for years, he
.wades through the mass, selects a num
ber of the most, striking points, ar*
ranges them, and. finally, makes a few
jottings in a large hand, and these lie
carries with him to the platform. The
process oflooking through the whole
envelope is repeated each tinle the ser
mon is preached. Partly on this ac
count and partly because in delivery
he forgets some points or dispropor
tionately amplifies others, no two ser
mons are ever exactly the same. By
this method also—a matter of imich
more importance—the delivery is al
ways fresh to himself. Thus, to make
this clearer, suppose that after a thor
ough sifting 100 eligible poinls remain
in the envelope. Every time the ser
mon is preach there hundred are ovi r
hauled. But no single sermon, by a
mere limitation of time, can contain,
say, more than seventy.
Ilence, though the general scheme is
the same, there is always novelty in the
arrangement, for the particular seventy
vary with each time of delivery. No
greater mistake could be made than to
imagine that Mr. Moody does not study
for his sermons. On the contrary, he is
always studying. YVl»en in the evan
gelistic field the batch of envelopes,
bursting with fatness, appears the mo
ment. breakfast is over, and the stran
ger who enters at almost any time of
the day, except-at. the hours of platform
work, will find him with his litter of
notes, either stuffing himself or his
portfolios with new points he has pick
ed up during the day. His search for
these "points.' and especially for light
upon texts, Bible ideas or characters,
is ceaseless, and he has an eye like an
eagle for anything really good. Pos
sessing a considerable library, he
browses over it when at home, but his
books are chiefly men. and no student,
ever read the ever-open page more dil
igently. more intelligently or to more
immediate practical purpose.'

Do Americans, as a rule, possess
more voluminous intestinal ti^cts th:.n

how far is cookery responsible for the
difference? It is, of course, notorious
that French cooking is the best in the.
world has this fact any bearing upon
the presumably «null oalibar of tli

CHAPTER XVI-(Contlrtned).
As the outer door was forced this
daring man blew out the light, and
easily and quickly found his way
again to the back room saying to him
self, with a mocking smile:
"You will'arrive too late, Mtawtcr
Noel Harrington."
And was dropping from the window
there at the very moment that Noel
and Doctor Forrester hud driven open
the door of the front room.
It was. then, not Nicksey himself,
but Nicksey's assassin before whom
•Emmeline had fallen senseless and it
would have gone hard with our poor
heroine but. that the man was well as
sured that.she had not seen his face,
and was, moreover, in too great peril
theu himself to stay for that which
otherwise, perhaps, lie had been very
willing to accomplish.
Doctor Forrester applied restoratives
and Emmeline presently revived.
Recovering consciousness and recog
nizing tluist some one was supporting
her, she aakl faintly, yet eagerly, 'Is
it you, Mr. Barrington?"
And with rage Edwin was about to
thrust her from him. but remembered
that she was still feeble, his arms still
necessary for her support.
So Forrester replied, tremulously,
"No. Miss Redmond, it is not—"
Before he had proceeded further:
"Edwin!" eclaimed Emmeline, free
ing herself from .his hold, and confront
ing liim. continued, excitedly, "How
came you hither? By wha,t means have
yOu attained to the knowledge of—"
and stopped abruptly.
Edwin replied not to these questions,
but said:
"Are you sufficiently recovered to
re turn into tho house? Mr. Barring
ton has arrived." lie continued with
bitter emphasis.
"Oh, thank heaven!" cried Emme
line.
Edwin muttered something and
ground his teeth together yet tendered
his arm to Emmeline, nevertlielebs
but she rejected his offered support
and tottered forward urwiided.
As these two reached the passage of
the house they were met by Barrington
and Jarvis, who had entered by the
front door, the latter carrying in his
hand one of the lanterns of his coach.
A few almost whispered words and
all ascended the stairs, Barrington,
who liad snatched flhe lantern from
Jarvis, leading the way.
About to enter the room all suddenly
stopped, and for a moment breathed
not, for all liad distinctly heard a
heavy groan.
Noel threw around the room the light
of his lantern, and Nicksey was seen
lying on the floor almost beneath.the
table and weltering in his blood.
"A murder!" exiclalmed Edwin.
Nicksey nodded «nd pointed with his
finger toward the way by which the
assassin had escaped.
While the other two men raised Nick
sey and laid him ori his miserable be^
Jarvis lighted the candle on the chim
ney piece and with it made his way to
the back room the window was open,
and, looking forth, Jarvis perceived
how easy flight had been to the mur
derer.
"Oh, help me! help me!" groaned
Nicksey. "Do not let me die I must
live to"lie avenged!"
"Know you your assassin?" ques
tioned Noel.
"The 'master' of One Tree Square,"
moaned Nicksey.
"He—he has lieen here!" cried Em
meline. with difficulty holding herself
erect, and pale almost as was the man
then dying near her.
"But have you learned the name of
that man?" demanded Noel.
Nicksey feebly shook his head.
"And wlierefor this new crime?"
"The better to conceal the former
one in order to secure the silence of
his accomplice—"
"You—his accomplice!" exclaimed
Noel.
"Yes I am Nicholas Shearman!"
Emmeline had been standing beside
!he dying rufiiain's bed the horror she
fell conquered by the eagerness to ob
tain tlie proofs which she had hope
would clear her father's name but
now she shrank far from liiin, shud
dered and was appalled.
But. her terrified looks were still
fixed on tlio face of Nicholas Shear
man—of him who had been an accom
plice in the crime for which her father
had so unjustly perished on the scaf
fold.
"Oh! is this man indeed about to
die?" cried Barrington, appealing to
Forrester.
"jS'o. no!" gasped Nicksey, groaning
Mid writhing.
v'IIe
.struck hard and
deep, but I—I know the wound is not a
fatal one."
Doctor Forrester probed the wound.
A stillness as of the grave was in lhat
room while ah were awaiting his de
cision. Nicksey glared wildly into Ed
win's face. The stricken man's doom
was about to be pronounced.
A few moments of terrime suspense,
and then, again concealiug Nicksey's
wound from view Forresiter. address
ing the miserable, unprepared wretch,
said solemnly: "Pray that heaven may
have mercy on your soul."
"What! must I die?" and Nicksey
trembled and clasped his hands.,,.."Not
even a day?"
"Not even an hour." was the reply.
"But lliat hour I must have!" Nick
sey said, with great energy, and half
raising himself on the bed. "I will
have it that I may give to Justice the
man who killed me."
Conquering her repugnance, Emme
line again approached and said to
Nicksey:
"Say. where are those letters wh'ch
I hare been unable to discover they
will aid us to avenge you."
"They are not here now—he his
stolen them from me."
And tho groan which Nick.-e.v utter
ed as lie said this was echoed by Eui
nieline. who felt that now the last
hops* was wrested from her.
Barrington. bending over the doomed
man. said:
"Before you go hence to render an
account, to heaven of all your crimes
remember that which happened twenty
years ago. We are here to receive
your testimony and to report, it te, jus
tice."
"But who then are you?" Nicksey
murmured.
"Speak, Nicholas Shearman, and for
get nothing, for now with you is our
only hope to avenge tho memory of
an 'innocent man. who was condemned
and perished for your crime."
An innocent man condemned for his
crime!
"That could not be true." Nicksey
said. "He knew nothing of that—noth
ing."
And Nicksey was indeed unaware
that ho had to reproach himself with
ihe death of more than one victim.
As he lay poisoned and groaning
with his agony in the copse to which
he had reeled, he had been heard by
some men who were passing on tlie
road: they bore liim to the nearest
doctor's, who. having done the best he
could for him, sent him on to a hos­

pital some fow miles oil the way to
ward London.
Escaping by almost a- miracle with
his life, when sent from the hospital
about six months after he had first
been admitted, he made his way di
rectly to London, and had never heard
more, indeed, had never inquired con
cerning the crime in which he had
assisted—only he took good care never
again to roturn to tflie neighborhood of
One Tree Square.
And now, when told how Arno'd
Lindsay had perished, Nicholas Shear
man trembled more than ever that he
himself had but so short a time to
live.
"Oh. mercy on me! mercy on me!"
he moaned. "If I must indeed die,
who will pray for me, that I may be
pardoned?" &^
"I Will!" exclaimed Emmeline.
"You!" gasped Nicksey, fixing upon
her his now fast glazing eyes. "Yes,
I know you—you are the young 'tin."
"I am Emmeline Lindsay."
Tlie dying man now extended his
hand and she gave him her own, Which
he feebly pressed and so held.
"Before your voice is forever stilled,"
continued Emmeline, "relate to us all
that your memory can recall respect
ing the sad fate of the child."
"Yes, yes," and Nicksey spoke now
but in the faintest of whispers. "The
Fifth of February—One Tree Square—
I struck him on the road—the mail
coach—I was poisoned—the copse." All
this was said disjointedly and with
long intervals between each broken
sentence.
"My accomplices—punish them—the
real assassins—I was but a miserable
instrument—pity me!"
"May heaven pardon you," prayed
Emmeline.
Now remembering, Barrington said:
"Can you describe the man who has
dealt you your death blow and who
has stolen those letters?"
There was no reply. -•.

"Too late!" said pjinmeline. who had
felt. Nicksey's lingers relax their hold
upon her hand.
"He will never speak more," said
Forrester.
And so, after twenty years, had per
ished the first of the .three assassius of
One Tree Square. 7
CHAPTER XVII.-
il
A Lnat Hope.
The first thing which had now to be
done was to give information to the
proper authorities of the murder which
had that night been committed and to
engage the agents of justice in an at
tempt to discover the perpetrator of
the crime.
That success would attend the pur
suit no one of those now, with such
various feelings and emotions sur
rounding Nicksey's lifeless body, could
for one moment believe.
Barrington turned toward Jarvis, re
questing that he would immediately
mount his box and drive in search of
the nearest officers, whom he was to
inform of what had occurred.
Jarvis was seated in the chair that
had so lately been occupied by the
man who would soon be laid within
his last resting place, and it was with
much difficulty that Edwin's uncle was
made-to comprehend that which was
now required of him.
He appeared bewildered, his mental
faculties for the time almost annihi
huted by the words-to which he had
listened, the sight he had beheld.
And when he rose from his chair he
staggered like a drunken man but his
strange manner was unnoticed by the
others, who were too greatly absorbed
with their own thoughts and feelings.
Gazing vacantly about, him his eyes
presently rested on Emmeline, and
then, fairly aroused. Jonas hastily ty
proached her, and seizing and tenderly
pressing her hand, said, tears rushing
into his eyes:,
"I beg your pardon, poor dear young
lady—I beg your pardon."
And blubbered right out as he blun
dered down stairs and from the house.
And then, supplicalingly, almost rev
erentially. Edwin sank back upon his
knee before the good and noble girl
he had so cruelly doubted and mis
judged.
And he accused and hated himself,
he said, for his vile suspicions was,
ho knew, unworthy of the forgiveness
which yet he dared to implore.
It scarcely needs for us to say that
he was very readily and gladly par
doned.
When Emmeline had somewhat rec
onciled her lover to himself by an as
surance of her forgiveness, she said
to him:
"Yes. I am not Emiheline Itedmond,
but Emmeline Lindsay, the daughter
of an unjustly executed man: and
with the hope of acquiring proofs of
my father's innocence resigned myself
to the shame of unceasingly following
the steps of him who now lies yon
der."
And Emmeline, averting her face,
pointed toward the corner of the room
where Nicksey was again sleeping—
but this time his last, long slumber.
"Most difficult of all was it to resign

so little merited." Emmeline added,
and fixed on Edwin a look which had
in it far more of love than of re
proach.
The devotion of all his life. Forres
ter said, would but poorly atone the
cowardly lack of faith lie had evinced,
his ungenerous doubts of Em incline's
purity and truth.
And then the repentant young man
asked and received his pardon from
Noel Barrington.
"I told you, doctor, that, you were
mad." Noel smilingly said, "and 1
think you will own now that you were
not perfectly in your senses."
Jonas returned with officers of jus
tice. and soon, and with feelings of
great relief, our friends quitted that
wretched den.
All three seated within Jarvis' coach
—and Jonas, poor man. his intellects
still in a dreadfully confused state,
was constantly driving down a wrong
street, and of course as constantly
driving back again, so that the jour
ney was very much the reverse of
shortened—were deeply and earnestly
conversing concerning the steps which
could now be taken.
Alas! they were now like Jarvis
himself, and knew not which way to
proceed.
On Nicksey and on the letters of
which he had possessed himself had
been Emmeline and Barrington's en
tire reliance.
Nicksey was dead—and the letters
had fallen into the power of a man
who would not have lost a moment in
reducicg them to ashes.
And that man himself it would be
impossible to discover.
Nor could they now venture to ac
cuse Mrs. Chesterton.
"All hope of justice for my father's
memory is gone," wept Emmeline,
"and nothing is for his daughter left,
save only a vain despair."
"No. no. do not weep. Emmeline,"
said Forrester, suddenly and hastily.
"All hope is not yet lost. I have a
true and earnest friend, a barrister of
great talent and with powerful influ
ence and if to unravel all these hor
rors be not indeed an impossibility, he
will accomplish it."
"I think I know." said, Barrington.
with considerable animation, "you al

"Yes," interrupted Forrester, "to

Alexander Benham, of Butte City,
Mont., was ait the Grand Pacific Hotel
last evening having come east, to
look up his mining interests. He is one
of the men who started the now fa
mous "pony express" across the plains
and the Rocky Mountains. That was
back in 18G0.
In speaking of the old-time business
he said: "The first, express ever run
across the plains was started by a man
named Butterfield in 18r8. It started
nt Little Rock, Ark., and followed a
southern route through Kansas, New
Mexico, Arizona, and then to Los An
geles. Cal. About two years later, in
18GO, our company was formed for the
j)u rpose of carrying the una Us totflie Pa
cific coast. It was known as the Cen
tral Overland, California and Pike's
Peak Express Company. I was chosen
manager and had my office in Denver.
"The Southern route run by Butter
field did not have as much prominence
as ours, which for years was known as
tho 'pony express' route. It started in
at St. Joseph. Mo., running through Ne
braska to Fort Kearney, to Fort Lara
mie, Wy., thence to Denver, to Salt
Lake city, to Placerville, New, and to
Sacramento, Cal.
The while tr'ip. extending liaLf across
the continent. wa« made in .seventeen
days, when no accident befell, and acci
dents were not so numerous as some
people have imagined. From St. Jos
eph to Denver the trip took seven days,
and from Denver to Sacramento was a
journey of ten days. That, was, of
course, by regular stage route, and lit
tle time was lost, in making it.
"To accommodate our business we
had about 150 coaches, most of which
were running aill the time. To haul
them we had 1,500 horses scattered
along the route from St. Joseph to
Sacramento. In addition we had 0.000
or 7,000 head of cattle, which were
used in handling heavy freight and
t,ran?porting feed for the horses and
provisions for our men. You can see
that he business
Avas
not by any means
a small one, and it continued to grow
as long as there was any use for such
means of transportation.
"This was until the completion of tho
Union Pacific Railway to California
in 1870. Tlu-n overland traffic and mail
service could be managed to better pur
poses by tihe railroad, and our pony ex
press went out of existence. But up
to that time, from the day that the
route was first, opened in 1800. its busi
ness had steadily increased. Even the
building of Mie railroad assisted us. for
our line was the best adapted for carry
ing to Western stations employees and
provisions."—Chicago Journal.

.• Tlif (irtiMN Widow.
According to went researches the
pliras^ "grass widow" is a corruption
of "grace widow," which is a term fc-r
one who becomes a widow by grace or
favor, not of necessity, as by dieath. It
originated in tne earlier days of Euro
pean civilization, when divorces were
but seldom gramted. and then only by
authority of tne church. When such
a decree was granted a woman the re
script stated: "Yiduca de gratia,"
which interpreted is "widow of grace."
A woman receiving such a divorce was
conniTMly ca.lled "a grace widow,"
and the transition to "grass widow"
was easy. This la titer term is in tlie
United Statics applied to a woman
whose husband has been away from
'ier for considerable length of time, or
who has deserted her. In England it,
is applied to an unmarried woman
who has borne it child.—San Francisco

In the "Meteorologisehe Zeitsclirift"

gives a very Interesting account of the
invention of the baiometer, which has
now been in use 250 years. Torri
celli. who died at the early age of 39
years, was too busily engaged in
mathematical studies to publish an ac
count of his discovery, but on June 11,
1044, he wrote a description of it to
his friend Ricci. This letter, and
Ricei's objections to the experiment,
were published in 1G63 by"C. Dati, a
friend of Torricelli, and, as this work
is now exceedingly scarce. Prof. Hell
man has reprinted the correspondence
in the original Italian, In the above
mentioned journal. Some of the
paragraphs, says "Nature," are note
worthy, especially those in which Tor

a question of producing a vacuum,
but of making an instrument which
would indicate the changes of the at

Expnnwlon of Water in Freezing.
Mr. Prompt read a paper before the
French Academy of Sciences concern
ing the augmentation of the volume
of water at the moment of its trans
formation into ice. His experiments
were made with a view to ascertain
the cause of this phenomenon. To this
end he caused water to freeze in a
transparent bulb. According to Mr.
Trompt, first a clear and transparent
layer of ice formed, then another layer
traversed by streaks at the points of
which gaseous bubbles appear. These
bubbles compressed more and more by
the formation of the Ice, eventually
break the vessel in which freezing wa
ter is confined. By using distilled wa
ter, from which all gases had been set
free, and protecting the water by cov
ering it with oil, Prompt claims to
have frozen the water without obtain
ing any dilation of -the volume orig
