Vow LIyING.--A cotemporary says
that the boy is now living who will be
President ot the Republic in 1900
What his name is. or where he resides
he does not stop to inform us. He
may at this moment be gathering
pumpkins in Oregon. OF peddling pop
corn around Troy Daniel Webster
once made "a new suit ofsatinett" by
selling catfshat a shilling a string
Whenever he may he, all unconscious
81 his high destiny, he feels the divin
irv that stirs within him; and grasps
his book, thirsting for knowledge -
His parents, as they answer his end
less queries, rejoice at his developing
intellect, vet little dream that his will
be Il great name among men, known
wide as the world.
Or, perchase the hard hand OF pov-
erty, or the cold hand Of orphanage
are moulding and training him for the
patient effort, that self reliance and
Tcsolute viii. that Ht him for great
achievements, He must pass throns
the school rhat prepares him for his
high career. In his youth many u
trial and wrong must break him to the
hardness Of life. In his manhood
many hardships must be endured,
many obstacles overcome, and rivals
ont stripped in the race the voice OF
envy aud dctraction despised and ha
tired and malice dctied.
Through snchs school and training,
tho President Of 1900 will doubtless
come, and is now coming. But from
what condition in life, from what part
of our broad land no one can predict
or know, bat Providence, who presides
over the destinies Of all nations.-

House, the out and in freight depots OF the
Michigan Southern depot. and De Witt

Very fortunately there Was not breath

where it would have stopped, or what the
extent of the damage would have been.
Nearly all the grain merchants in the city
were gathered around the two large grain
warehouses which were scorcred, ready to
