HIS OWN BETUAYEIL
BV AS RX-FXU1.ISII UKTKCTIVK.
It is now many years ago sinco I
uml my romi'utlc .loyeo woro scut to a
village in one of the southern cotuilios
of Utiulanil to discover a certain person
who liatl roblmil the si|uire of the |'uce
of a large sum of money. Our instruc
tions were to stay tliere till we
kiiu
ucciloil and as the squire was wealthy
and orud^od no expense, we mado
our dwelling in a quiet farm house
where there was plenty to amuse us
in our lu:sure intervals. Wo were
•|iiite alone, with the oxeeptiou of an
old woman who did the domestic
work and minded the liou.se when we
were away on duty.
Wo!!, we foiuid the thief lobe a dis
charged t'oolniitn, whose knowledge
of the locality had hitherto i-avctl him
from detection, though we proved
much too sharp lor him in the end. 1
ncctl not trouble you with liis alter
fate. Ktioiigh, that am about to re
late an eveut which happened before
lie was arrested, and in which I was
accidentally cCiucurued in a very curi
ous way.
We had made two acquaintances
in the course of our walks abroad.
One was a ret.roil farmer named
Hrauwcll, who lived all by himself
about a mile oil'. lie was a bachelor,
whose relations were said to have
quarrelled with him, but nobody
seemed to know the exact truth, or to
care much about it either. 1 ascer
tained that tho first week 1 was there.
The other acquaintance was named
Cole, and had been a farrier, or Rome
thing ol tiie kind. 1 had heard of
this 'ole
»s
incurably irritable and
morose, and am free to confess that
rumor had not belied him. However,
he uuidc a point of being very civil
whenever we met him, and would
never let us pass his cottage wilhout
speaking to us. He was' a heavy
browed man, and his eyes had a
si range liliny look which always re
pelled me whc-ii I met his gaze. 1 do
not believe he liked me 1 certainly
did not like li'm.
Joyce and 1 wero sitting one even
ing s:-:ioking our pipes, when I casually
remarked that 1 had not seen Bran
well for the last fortnight.
"Neither havo I," said Joyce.
'That is odd," I remarked. "I
think I'll go to bis cottage to-night.
He may be ill, you know."
"I'll go with you, Elder."
"You had better stay here and let
me go alone," I said. "He might
fancy it an intrusion if we both went
together."
Joyce's attentive face rolaxed.
"Yes, I understand," ho answered.
"Suppose, then, 1 follow you in half
an hour, and meet you outside the cot
tage? Don't refuse nie, Elder, for I
won't have it."
So it was settled. I put on my hat
and started at a brisk pace down the
road, keeping stendily on between the
black line of hedges on one side, and
the open fields ou t'uo other. It was
an ugly night, the wan moon shone at
intervals through drifting clouds, and
the air was oppressively heavy.
1 reached the heath I mounted the
hill—and there was the cottage, its
gray roof showing dimly against the
sky. The door was unfastened, and
yielded easily to my touch.
I waited a minute and then went in.
Having no lautern, 1 struck a match
and as it ttared up saw a pieee of
candle on the window ledge beside tue.
I lit the caudle, and holding it above
my head, advanced slowly into the
middle of tho room. The light.showed
me a broken chair, an overturned
table and a bed.
On that bed lay a dead man, whom
I at once identified as Branwell.
How had he come by his death?
Judging by the gaping wound in his
throat, he had been foully murdered,
and then placed there exactly as 1 saw
him. 1 know not how it was, but the
thought of suicide never occurred to
me for a moment. No 1 was as cer
tain he had been slain as if I had wit
nessed tho deed myself. The disor
dered appearance of the furuilure. the
dark stains ou the bed and floor—all
told of a struggle, who shall say bow
fierce and cruel?
1 no longer hesitated as to the proper
course lo pursue. Before anything iu
the plaee was disturbed, it was my
duty to report, the occurrence at the
farui si ml' let others decide what 1
should do next.
As these thoughts passed through
my mind, 1 suddenly felt a breath of
cold a:r behind uie, and tho candle
was knocked out of my hand.
What it mean? I had heard no
sound but my own footstep 1 had
•een nothing but the dead tuan. The
candle was still flickering on tbe
ground where it fell. Before 1 could
reach it, a foot striding out of tho
gloom trod it liercoly down, and the
whole chamber was sunk in darkness.
1 stood helpless, like oue turned to
stone. All at once there rose, in tbe
awful silence, the weird howl of a be
nighted dog. When this ceased, the
next thing 1 remember was a knock
iug at (lie door, and the cheerful voice
of Joyce call ng tue by name.
"Corno ill, for pity's sake!" 1 cried.
"1 shall go out of my souses if I stop
here much lougcr."
"Steady, Elder—what's amiss?
Hold up a second."
He had brought his lantern with
him, and he turned its light full upon
me.
"Why, man alive, how pale you
are!" said he, clapping a bottle to my
mouth. "Try a drop of brandy, anil
you'll perhaps feel better."
I del feel mater. The brandy sent
the blood back to mv heart, strength
ened mv mind and nerves, restored
me, soul and body, to myself.
When 1 handed the bottle back to him
I saw that he had bared his head, and
wm
steadily regarding the placid face
on the pillow.
"Dead!" he said.
"Murdered, Joyce."
Hs lifted the lantern higher, and
uoroohed the bed.
"True. It's ghastly sight no
wonder it upset you."
"Ay, but that's not the worst," I
answered. "Let's go back, and I'll
tell you all."
He looked surprised, but his sur
prise was nothing to the amazomont
that overcame him when ho "got out
side, and I related what had happen
ed.
"Strange!" he remarked. "Why
didn't yo'u let me search the cottage
before we left?"
"It would havebecu useless, Joyce.
Whoever the ini-ieroant is, it is not
likely he would risU detection by stop
ping there longer than lie could help.
We must hunt for him nearer hoiue."
As I spoke, we arrived at a bend in
tho road, and I noticed alight in the
window of Cole's house.
"Look," said 1 "tbe farrier is up
late to-night."
He had heard us, and presently ap
peared at the door. His face showed
deep marks of cure, aud the lines
about bis mouth weru very noticeablo.
Perhaps lie was sutl'cring from over
fatigue, or had other mat'ers to worry
him of which we knew nothing. He
listeued quietly to to my account of
the murder, aiut mailc no remark till
1 had linishod. Then he eyed me
closely, and caine a step nearer.
"Is there any one whom you sus
poet?" he said.
"No."
"Sad—very sad. Let us hope,
Mr. Elder, that you may be fortu
nate enough to discover the crimi
nal."
We thanked him, and walked ou.
I sat up all night to write out
my rupoit of the case, ami fell
asleep al last with the sunlight of
the new moili ng pouring into the
room.
The inquest was held th rce days la
ter at a neighboring inn, known as
the Spotted Dog, and was the first
witness examined. On the whole, 1
would rather not state my opinion of
the proceedings, and if you ask mc
what country inquest means, 1 treat
the question as a d.suial conundrum
aud give it up in despair. There were
the usual villagers in creasy smock
frocks there was the usual old lady,
who always appears in her Sunday
clothes on such occasions there weru
the wheelwright, Ihe blacksmith, nud
the parish clerk, proud alike in the
onsciousness that they were public
olliciais and not ubove the honcr of
doing their duty in a noble and tlisiii
tere-ted manner bei'oro tho eyes of
their grateful countrymen. The Cor
oner was a fat, pompous man, who
loved the sound of his own voice and
worried everybody to distraction at
every stage of the inquiry. My inter
est was, however, languidly stirred
wlicu Cole stepped forward in his
turn. Being sworn, the farrier de
clared that he had lirst heard from me
of the old man's death and that he
knew absolutely nothing hut what 1
had told him. The upshot of it all was
that the jury returned a verdict of
"Willful murder against some person
or persons unknown," and so the mat
ter ended.
Nothing occurred for some weeks
afterward. The future was iiuknotvn,
the preseut was monotony so pass
ed tho weary hours. The events
of life are not evenly distributed
over the whole of its course, but
come unexpectedly as the advent of a
ghost.
The course of Time had not flowed
peacefully for Cole, eithor he was
changed In more ways than oue. Tho
strangest thing about it was, that the
cltaugo was hard to describe it show
ed itself in a hundred little siirns which
a stranger would scarcely notice, but
which 1 could not, ou my part, mis
interpret. At one period the curious
look in his eyes was more marked
than ever, and he would stalk about,
moodily silent, with his hauds crossed
behind liiiu at another he would be
come liercely irritable and grumble
in liis room for hours together.
This alternation between gloomy
despondency aud wild excitement was
certainly remarkable, aud taken in
connection with what I had lately ob
served of him, it suggested to me one
plain explanation of the nn story—an
explanation which I scouted at lirst,
but ended by accepting a conclusion
which it was impossible to resist.
The farrier was mad.
dare not say a word to my com
rade, for it might have been danger
ous to trust him. Jovce never knew
why I persisted in kcoping tho house,
door loeked, or why, eoutrarv to my
usual habits, I carried a loaded pistol
in my pocket, aud would not trust
myself near Cole when the night was
closiug iu.
Another matter which occupied my
thoughts now and again, was the
murder of Branwell.
As regards my conduct in that mel
ancholy business, my conscience was
(dear. I had doue all mau could,
within the narrow limits assigned to
me, to discover the miscreant who had
been in the cottage on that memora
ble occasion, and had then so sudden
ly disappeared. If I accepted the
common ruuior of the village, he was
a convict from London, long sinco lost
in tho byways of villainy from which
he had emerged but I preferred to be
lieve that he was some person who
knew his victinrand had deliberately
hunted him dowu. The murderer was
a robber as well.
"Sooner or later we sliall meet
agaiu," 1 thought, -'and then
I had gone out one line evening,
and, tempted by the beauty of the
prospect, had walked some 'distance
into the country before Ihe gathering
darkness warned me it was getting
late. Heii in no hurry to return, 1
continued to stroll leisurely on when
1 suddenly discovered that 1 was iu a
strange neighborhood of which I
knew nothing, aud where there was
no person of whom 1 could ask my
way.
More vexed with my own carloss
ness than was, perhaps, altogether
reasonable, 1 stopped, aud looked
around for some familiar landmark.
There was a heavy mist prevailing
which made it dillicult to see far, but
it presently cleared around me, and
the moon shone out brightly through
a halo of fleecy clouds, iluving turned
lo the right, on the chance of reach
.ing the line, from which 1 had stray
ed, 1 found myself in a lane which
sloped away iii the distance. After
following it for about a mile, I climb
ed over a gate, and landed on the
side of a hill.
1 started iu astonishment, I was
back in my old quarters, an^ before
nie w.n the cottage of tiie dead man.
Presently I sccriied a human ligure
moving rauidly along, but wlien I
looked aga ii it lind disappeared. Al
most disposed to tliiuk that my fancy
had deceived me, 1 was hesitating
what to do next, when 1 saw the cot
tage window lit up from within.
I hurried across, and as I got near
I heard a strange noise, followed by a
sound 1 ke the chinking of iiiouey.
Then camo a shout, and a hoarse
laugh rang harsh and loud on the
damp night air.
1 crept to the window and looked
in.
The first object that met mv view
was Cole. lie was sitt'ng on tho bed.
A trap-door, of Ihe existence of which
I had been ignorant, was open at his
feet, and on the table beside him were
a number of bank notes, and a quan
tity of silver and gold. Sovereigns
and shillings were tumbled carlessly
together, aud he was thrusting liis
hands among tho coius and letting
them slip through his lingers with an
appearance of Ihe highest relish. 1
drew back in horror-silent, breath
less, my blood curdling iu my veins
as I beheld him
He had never noticed my presence
he paid no attention to anything but
the money he was gloating over—
the money*which was the price of a
crime.
I withdrew a little way off to regain
my breath and docide on my course of
action. At lirst 1 thought of summon
ing Joyce to assist me, but my dread
of what might happen to the farrier in
my absence induced me to adandon
tbe idea, and 1 ended by determin
ing to arrest him myself single
handed and unarmed. It wat a des
erate task, but there was no help
or it.
fc
Resolved on this, 1 took the pistol
from ray pocket and drow the charge.
Next 1 removed my coat and rolled up
my shirt sleeves to the elbow. Then
stoalthily raising the latch of the door
threw It open.
As tho farrier confronted mo, 1
taw an awful look of consternation
pass over his face: his complex
ion turned to the hue of lead
figure grow rigid and motionless.
At tbat momont 1 pitied him from my
soul.
"Wm. Cole," said I, calmly, "I ar
rest you in the namo of the law."
He" staggered to his feet, and his
lips moved, though he said nothing,
kept my back to the door, nnd walked
»ItT
boldly up to him. There was a licrot
glitter iu his eyes as they stared into
mine. He seemed quite" passive, but
the instant he felt my hand on his
shoulder ho shook it ol£ and, with a
savage yell, sprang straight at my
throat. In unother minute wo hail
clo-ed, aud wero grappling together
in deadly conflict.
Wo were not unequally matched. In
youth and frcshii'.ss, 1 had the advan
tage over the farrier, whom the sud
denness of the surprise h.id somewhat
uuiiervcd. and who seemed reluctant
at the outset to exert his whole forcc.
But th reluctance did not last lonir,
nnd as his arms tightened tlie'r em
brace, 1 knew it would be as much as
I could do to overpower him. His Jean
frame had an elastic'ty, hisgripaliriu
ness, that would liardiy have been ex
peeled from his appearance, and tlit
fury of madness trebled his strength.
1 would not strike liini I struggled as
a wrestler to bring him down to tho
ground. We rocked, nnd strained,
and rce'ed till tho l!oor shook
under our weight, aud the door
and window rattled again. By de
grees I began to tiro liini, aud to
drive liini backward in the direction
of the bed, when, just as I was collect
ing my cucrgies for a linal effort, my
foot slipped and I fell heavily to tlic
ground.
Iu vain I tried to rise—I was held
fast nud my position gave mo no
cliauco of releasing myself. Still 1
did not realize my actual peril till,
writhing quickly round, he knelt upon
rae and saw iu his hand a long,
bright kuife.
Death. Well, even so. It was but
dying once aud I was quit of it for
ever."
Suddenly, all in a second as it were,
I heard the door creak—something
dark whirled past me like a cloud
there was the dull thud o' a blow and
Cole, hurled across the room, struck
against the table with such rudenoss
that it overturned and sent the coins
spinning iu every direction. I sot
upon tuy feet unhurt, but breathing
quicker, anil fouud myself face to face
with Joyce. 1 looked for tho farrier—
he was lying senseless in the opposite
coruer.
"A close shave indeed!" said my
comrade, with his old, easy gaycty.
"You never had such a squeak for it
in vour life, Elder."
kuew that as well as ho did, and
after thanking him warmly for his
timely aid, 1 made him acquainted
with the startling events of tho last
half hour. 1 will say nothing of the
terms in which Joyce expressed his
opinion of my conduct, almost wring
ing my hand oil' in the fervor of his
enthusiasm.
"Our duty now is to secure the far
rier aud get him away as quietly as
possible," I said. "And the sooner
the better."
We searched the cupboard till we
found a coil of rope, with which we
bound Cole hand and foot before he
was conscious of what was being done
lo liiiu. Before daybreak it was known
all over the couutry that tho murderer
of Branwell hud been discovered and
was safe in our custody. He was,
however, acquitted at las tr al—tho
medical evidence proving, beyond the
possibility of doubt, that he was then
insane and had been insano for a long
time. He died a month later, having
never once spoken a slnglo word to
anyone after the verdict, which con
signed him to a mad house for the re
mainder of his days.
How Husted Used tile Gavel.
Syracuse
(N.Y.)
Stamford:
"I make
no secret of acknowledging just when,
I learned to use the gavel," Geer
Husted went on to say. "It was in
the Masonic lodge. I divulge no un
revealed mystery of the order when I
say that the gavel is nowhere so su
preme as iu the tirand lodge. It is
supremacy itself. To it tbe delegates
bend as quickly as privates in a great
army, as the members of every par
liamentary or deliberative body
should. 1 remember an incident iu
my career at Albany which is timely
here. It is customary when the
exigencies of business—as iu the case
of tho election of regents of the uni
versity of the state of New York or
United States senators—call the senate
and assembly into joint session, for
the lower to receive the upper house
iu its chamber. Tho courtesies and
customs of these sessions demand that
on the entrance of the senate the as
sembly shall rise. Ou several occas
ions before 1 lirst became speaker ol
the assembly, I had witnessed those
ceremonies. 1 recalled the fact that
iu each case the speaker, when tho
senate was at the door, requested the
assembly to rise. To my notion this
was exceedingly undi nilied and re
flected on the deportment of the
assembly, who ought to kuow its duty
as well as its presiding otliccr. Think
how a gentleman would feel walking
into »drawing-room to be told that
he must spit on the floor. I resolved
that if ever I became speaker, and I
am free to confess 1 had uo doubt of it,
things would be differently done.
During my lirst term a joint session
became necessary. The looked-for
opportunity was at hand. Ou the day
lixed and al the hour the sergeant-at
arius announced the arrival of the
senate in tlio usual form. During the
pause which followed I raised my
gavel, and looking calmly at the house
brought it down three times iu suc
cession. Tho next moment seventv
tive men were on their feet, nnd natur
ally those who did not respond at once
aroM) liy inspiration. A siugle blow
later ou, when tho senate was receiv
ed, brought tho whole assembly to a
sitting posture. After adjournment
au ex-speaker camo to me to find out
how it happened that the assembly
arose without, the usual request. 'I
asked the members to rise,' 1 said.
'No,' my inquisitive predecessor said,
'you didn't, for not a word was said.'
'But,' I added, '1 mado the usual re
quest with my gavel. You heard tho
three blows?' 'Is that a Masonic sign?'
he asked curiously. 'I did no say so,'
was my response? The gavel at any
rate had dono the talking."
"I was neve cxaitly burried olive," aaid an
old clerk, recounting bis experiences, "but 1
once worked a week In a store tbat did not
advertise. Wlieu came out my bead was al
most as white as you now see It Solitary
coudneiaeut did it."

In almost any village of the country
can be found at least one person who
may be designated as a •'character
which rather uncertain title usually
describes one who is distinguished
from his neighbors by some striking
peculiarity of disposition, manner oi
occupation—in fact,one who Is "a little
odd!" Irwin is no exception to tlu
rule. Upou a steep bluff, 800 feet
above the red water of Brush' Creek,
nnd commanding a most extensive and
charming view, stands a small two
story frame stable. Part of this was
once used by its owner as a harness
room and office, and is lighted bv a
small wiudow. In this, through the
courtesy of the proprietor, has resided
for several years an aged man who
has spent the greater part of bis life in
a valu oiVoit to demonstrate an idea,
which lias before received the attention
of many auother, and, unfortunately,
often wrecked both means and miuit.
An idea that always mocks its fol
lowers with a seeming promise of suc
cess, only to flit and leave them in tbe
conditiou referred to by tbe poet,
lit- by a friar's lantern ledl
This man began to work upon his
pet idea when a mere boy, and seems
to have followed it up closely at inter
vals until a number of years ago,
since which time his entire attent.on
has beeu giveu to it. He eats and
sleeps in his rude work-room, and a
curtain across the window shuts ofl
the interior from the gase of tho curi
ous. Yet he is willing to show his
model lo most persons, and the visitor
is kiudly received and entertained. In
tho half light of the room, as one looks
at the too
h,
and wheels and balls, and
sees lies
looping ligure aud the face
almost hidden by a beard, which is un
shorn aud hangs over his bosom in a
mass of gray,a while the eyes gleam
with a new light as the certainty of
success is told, "as soou as one more
wheel is added." one can almost fancy
himself in tho presence of an alchem
ist of o!d, and that he is treading the
threshold of uutold mystery. But that
one wheel has beeu lacking these manv
years. Ofteu do we see the old man
liovering about fouuderies and shops,
Dr walking up the steep street to nis
room with wheels and rods in his
or walking up the steep street to
hands, but he "lias not quite linish
l." Five years ago he was so certain
tbat he had attained his object that he
sought out a young man who had but
a while before relumed from an
European tour, and desired him to go
over again in tho interest of his in
vention. He said he had no monev to
pay any expenses, but the invention
would bring countless millions of
dollars to both. It is needless to say
tbat although the young man would
do much for "sweet charity's sake."
yet he declined this request, and the
old mau went away wondering why
guv
one would throw away such an
opnortunity.
i'hus he works away in his retreat
through winter's snows and summer's
8iiiisUne, apparrently regardless of
the beautiful things which Nature in
her onward march is scattering so
lavishly about him, knowing but the
daytime for work and the uight for
rest rarely meotiug his fellow men,
and seeking but few, and then only
when ho sallies forth to purchase
material for his machine or food for
his body taking no recreation now,
but ever lookiug forward to that time
when in the completion of his wonder
ful work—
The night shall he filled with music,
And the carcs that lufest tbe day
Shxli fold up their tents like the Arabs,
Aud sllcn:ly steal away.
The writer saw him a few evenings
sinco returuing from his purchase of
food. The air was cool, the sky was
filled with great masses of gray clouds,
and darkness was gathering fast. Un
der the shadow of a long une of arch
ing maples he came with stealthy,
catlike steps, and disappeared in the
gloom. Thoughts camo of the lonely
life, the all-engrossing idea, and the
resulting separation which rose like a
wail between him and other men and
it was wondered whether, after all,
there were not some who aspired to
the position of leaders among men
who allowod love of wealth and houor
and power to shut them out of the
hearts of their fellows, as well as the
old man who has devoted his life to
unraveling the mystery of perpetual
motion.—Pittsburg

The Bottom Drawer.
1 saw my wife pull out the bottom
drawer of the old family bureau this
evening, and 1 went softlv out and
wandered up and down uutil I knew
she had gone to her sewing. We havo
some things laid away in that drawer
which the gold of kings could not buy,
and yet they are relics which greive
us both until both our hearts are sore.
1 haven't looked at them for a year,
but I remember each article. There
are two worn shoes, a little chip hat
with part ot the rim gone, some stock
ings, trousers, and a coat, twoor throe
spools, bits of broken crockery, a
whip and several toys. Wife—poor
thing—goes to the drawer evrey day
of her lffc, and prays over it, and lets
her tears fall upon the precious arti
cles but I dare not go.
Sometimes we speak of little Jack,
but not often. It has been a long
I time, but somehow we can't get over
grieving. He was a burst of sunshine
into our lives and his going away has
been like covering our everyday ex
istenco with a pall. Sometimes when
I wo sit alone of evenings, I writing and
she sewing, a child ou the street will
call out as our boy used to, and wo
will both start up with beating hearts
and a wild hope, ouly to lind the dark-
Hess more of a burden thau ever. It
is so still and so quiet now. I look up
at the window where his blue eyes
used to sparkle at my coming, but he
is not there. 1 listen for his pattering
feet, his merry shout, and his ringing
laugh, but there is no sound. There
is no one to climb over my knees, no
one lo search
my
pockets and tease
for presents and I never lind the chair
turned over, the broom down, or the
rope tied to the kuobs.
want some one to lease mo for mv
knife to r.de on my shoulders to lose
my axe to follow me to the gate when
1 go, and to be there when I come
home lo call "good night" from the
little bed now empty and wife, she
misses him still more. There are no
little feet to wash, no prayers to say,
no voice teasing for lumps of sugar,
or sobbing with pain of a hurt toe aQd
she would give her own life, almost,
to awake at midnight and look across
to the crib nnd see our boy as he used
to be. So we preserve our rolics and
when we aro dead wo hope that
strangers will handle tltem tenderly,
uvea if they shed no tears over them,

A Short Homily ou Childhood.
I "Now, Bobby," waruod tho old gen
(.Ionian, as the family sat down to din
aer, "you musn bother Mr. Feath
erly with foolish questions. In the
presence of older people little boys
should bo seen, not heard."
"I was only goiu' to ask him one?"
said Bobby, with an injured air.
"All,right, Bobby," laughed Feath
srly, very much amused, "go ahead,
You musn't be too hard on Bobby, Mr,
Hendricks," he continued, turning to
lhat gentleman, "little boys are all
iliko the world to them is full of the
ttrango and inexplicable! And after
ill, what are wo but. children of a
larger growth? Er-what is it, Bob

Politic* Too MtichFor Himi
A lady on Fi'th Avenue, New York,
quickly summoned a doctor
"Oh, doctor, my husband is nearly
lend. He attended
a
caucus last night,
lis made four speeches and promise ',
lo be with liis fellow citizens again to
lay. But 'oh, doctor, he looks nearly
dead
"Has he been in.politics long?"
"No, only last. year. He worked
liard forMamesMcCaulay's election."
"He will get well, madam! He has
a stomach for any disease, if he
worked for him!"
Political life, of short or long dura
tion, is very exhausting, as it is ovi
dent from the great mortality which
inwails among public men. Ex. U. S.
Senator B. K. Bruce, who litis been
long in public life, says:
"The other day, wiiett stepping into
oar at a crossing. I founil Dr.
within, who eyed me up and down in a
surprised way. remarking:
Why Senator,how well you look!'
'Well, I feel pretty well,' I an
swered."
The doctor uttered an incredulous
reply, when the Senator frankly told
him. in answer to an inquiry, that it
tvas Warner's safe cure which accom
plished for him what the profession
had failed to do. Senator Bruce says
his triends are verv much ast ouished at
this revelation ot power.—The Globe.

Adjntant-General Drum'* Report.
Adjt. Gen. Drum, in his annual report to
the secretary of war, invites attention to
the subject of the obsolete arms and
ammunition in the hands of the
state militia or stored in the several arm
ories.
"It would," he says, "seem a most wise
measure, if at tla» approaching session of
congress, a genera! act were passed provid*
ihg for tiie immediate exchange, when re
quested, of till obsolete arms now in tho
hands of the state militia of the several
states for improved Sprin^lield rifle's, cali
lcr 45, and appropriate ammunition
thereof." He recommends that proof bo
required with the application for the de
tail of a military professor at any military
school that at least 150 pupils above
the age of fifteen years are actually pres
ent. He finds thatinsomeenses the num
ber runs as low as sixty. He rccominends
that non-commissioned olficera and pri
vates on the retired listbepaida groKg sum
of money in lii of the present pay aud
commutations of allowances, and hn sub
mits a table embodying a proposition to
pay thein at a rate varying from $30.40
per month for chief musicians to $23.00
for artificers. He also calls attention to
the difficulty of securing clerks acquainted
with army forms and recommends reme
dies. He calls special attention to tho
value of work done by the prisoners in mili
tary prisons.

thinly populntod territory into one ot the
most prosperous and progressive States of
the Union are fast passinj away. Every
tew days are printed account* ot the death
of some villaio patriarch, what* tale* of
lights with the Indians and ot hardship*
endured and overcome in earlior day* have
soomed to tho rising generation Ilk* chap
ter* In ancient hhtorjr. To thnae who still
remain all honor due. They wilt not
be with us long, but while they yet tarry
their experience and advice should be
heeded. Samuel Barstow, ot Lancaster,
Wis,, is one ot those old resident* and i*
well known, not only in the State, but be
yond its borders as well. In recounting
some ol his experiences recently he said:
"I have suffered mo! or less from rheu
matism and general debility tor a number
of years. For the last year the trouble
has constantly increased and for a month
I could not dress myself or get. up from my
chair without help. From my head to my
feet every cord and musclo was stilt and
sore. During tiiis time I used various reme
dies, but all to no purpose, and continued
to get worse. Sly attention was called to
Atldophoros. I procured a bottle and on
the 22d of .Ianmiry, 1SN4, began to use it.
1 took live doses nnd then slept easily un
til eight o'clock in tho morning. Ithen
got up nnd dressed myself und walked out
without a cane. 1 was astonished at the
resujt and could hardly realize that the
medicine had produced such nn effect. I
am getting to be nn old man—I nm now
seventy-two years old—nnd I don't sup-
inset ll lt it will make mo a young man,
it will help the lamp of lifo to burn
down calmly.
Mrs. K. F. Bowers, of Racine, Wis., is
well known in that city as one of the old
residents, bhe having lived there thirty-sev
en years. Her present address is 902
State Street. She has this to sny:
"I have been troubled with rheumatism
lor the last three years. I did notBuffer a*
much pain as some do with the same com
plaint, my difficulty being principally stiff
ness of tho joints. The trouble was most
ly in my knee joints, und it was with much
difficulty that I could bend them, especially
in going up ui'.d down stnirs. During the
time 1 was troubled in this way I tried
many medicines without any good effects,
Athlophoros came to my notice, and being
anxious to get some relief I thought I
would try It. After using it lor a short
time I was able to bend my knees easily
and could g' up or down stairs."
Mrs. T. ii. Neff, of Calamine, Wis., who
lias herself been benefited by taking Atldo
phoros for her rheumatism, tells an inter
esting stor.v of tlu' improvement wrought
in tier brother-in-law, Mr. John W. N' ff, of
Calamine, an old gentleman ofseveiity-five
yea rs. She says:
"When lie got the first bottle of Athlo
phoros, which I sent for for him, he was so
badly off with rheumatism and liud been
for nearly a year tliat he could not step
without two crutches. It took two or
three men to help liini out of a wagon or
sleigh, and he euiiM not- drcNs or undress
alone. He had paid out a grcatmany dol
lars for remedies. He took eighteen bot
tles of Athiophores, aud now he can walk
three-quarters of a mile witli just one cane,
and can hoe iu the garden and chop wood."
