That very afternoon couple of riders
dashed by his steady-going gig, and one OF
them was Mr.. Irving, and one was Rosamond
upon Bellerophon.
DR.. Randolph turned about and came to
our house, ard waited there till Mr., Iryins
left Rosamond at the door, and then he mel
her, and demanded to know the meaning o.
it.
"Really, SIR" said Rosamond, ''this is sur

the gold ring from her finger and dropped ii
in his hand, and went on up stairs.
1t was fortnight after that that Maurice
met DR.. Randolph in Boston.

said, in answer to my husband. II cant

moment, there came the fire-alarm and a
rushing crowd, and they followed it, and

afterwards, he was dashing with the firemen.

A Gamblers Endurance.

The Prairie Farmer, of Chicago, says:
Stories of endurance bordering on the
incredible have been told of persons in
almost every walk in life. The miles
walked by slaves through forest and
cane-swamp to gain their liberty /; the
hours spent in watching by a
mother over the cradle of her sick
child the watch kept by sentinel at
a post of danger the outlook by dis
coverer on the deck of his vessel, have
all been the theme of the poet and
biographer. But none of these exam
Piles of endurance compare with that of
a professional gambler in this city. One
day last week he went into faro den
and sat down /" to fight the tiger" He
alternately lost and won, won and lost,
till his total losses amounted to Sl1 300
over his winnings. Several parties
joined in the game for few hours
each one man would act as dealer till
he was worn out, when another would
take his place but the gambler held
his seat at the table for fifty hours,
during which time he never tasted food
or closed his eyes IN sleep. 1t is a
question whether patriotism, affection,
or duty in any form ever-led person
to such feat of endurance.

A Blind Leader Of the Blind.

The remarkable faculty of James
Moore, man 80 years old, and blind
from his birth, is thus described by the
Cleveland Herald:
Zone year ago DR.. d. B. Smith, of
this CITY. removed the balls of his eyes
from his head, and Mr. Moore has been
employed in his office since that time
for the purpose of receiving visitors
when the doctor is absent. He appears
in every respect different in his move
ments from ordinary blind persons, and,
as he wears green glasses, few persons
who meet him are awareof his intirmlty.
When desired to go on an errand, he
finds his way without difficult, and he
has rendered himself so familiar with
the streets of Cleveland that he rarely
has to inquire. Although he carries a
cane he hardly ever permits it to touch
the sidewalk, seeming to be guided by
intuition away from contact with o.
stacles. His sense of hearing is so acute
that he is able to state whether a street
is narrow or broad by means of the
sound of the footsteps of persons pass
ing along on the opposite side. When
crossing street he manages to avoid
the vehicles, stopping and waiting IN
the middle, if necessary, until the coast
is clear, it being indicated to him by
sound. He is frequently sent to con-
duct blind patients who do not possess
his wonderful faculties to Charity Hos
pital from his employers office. Some
times he will walk, guiding their tot
tering steps, and at others will take a
street-car, stationing himself on Euclid
avenue, and inquiring before stepping
on board if it is the right one. He can
remove every speck Of dust from the
furniture of an Office or parlor, hand
ling the most fragile articles without
breaking or damaging them iii the
least"

Lincoln,s Dream As Told BY Dickens.

dined with Charles Sumner. last
Sunday, against my rule; and, as,
had stipulated for no party, Mr.. Secre-
tary Stanton was the only other guest
besides his own secretary. Stanton is a
man with very remarkable memory,
and extraordinarily familiar with my
books. He and Sumner having been
the first two public men at the dying
Presidents bedside, and having re-
NAMED with him until he breathed his
last, we fell into very interesting con-
versation after dinner, when, each of
them giving his own narrative separately,
the usual discrepancies about details of
time were observable. Then Mr.. Stan
ton told me curious little story, which
will form the remainder of this short
letter. On the afternoon of the day on
which the President was shot, there was
Cabinet council, at which he presided.
Mr.. Stanton, being at the time COM
mander-in-chief of the Northern troops
that were concentrated about here, ar
rived rather late, indeed, they were
waiting for him, and, on his entering
the room, the President broke off in
something he was saying, and re-
marked: "Let us proceed to business,
gentlemen. Mr.. Stanton then noticed,
with great surprise, that the President
sat with an air of dignity in his chair,
instead of rolling about in the most I'M
calmly attitudes, as his invariable GUS
tom was, and that instead of telling ir-
relevant or questionable stories he was
grave and calm, and quite a different
man. Mr.. Stanton, on leaving the
council with the Attorney General, said
to him "That is the most satisfac-
tory Cabinet meeting / have attended
for many long day. What an extra
ordinary change in Mr.. Lincolnl" The
Attorney General replied: "We all
saw that before YOU came in. While
we were waiting for you, he said, with
his chin down on his breast, "Gentle-
men, something very extraordinary is
going to happen, and that very soon. !"
10 which the Attorney-General had OBJ
served, Something good, sir, hope" "
When the President answered very
gravely, 81 don't know, don't know !;
but it will happen, and shortly, too"
AS they were all impressed by his man
ner, the Attorney General took him up
again: Shave you received any in
formation, sir, not yet disclosed to us ?"
"No," answered the President "but
I have had dream, and 1 have now
had the same dream three times-once
ON the night preaeeding the battle of
Bull Run ance on the night preceding
such another (naming a battle not IA
vorable to the North). His chin sunk
on his breast again, and he sat reflect
ing. "Might one ask the nature of
this dream, sir?" said the Attorney
General. "Well," replied the Presi-
dent, without lifting his head or chang
ing his attitude, q am on a great,
broad, rolling river, and am in boat
and I drift and / drift-but this is
not business" suddenly raising his face,
and looking round the table as Mr..
Stanton entered, "Let us proceed to
business, gentlemen" Mr.. Stanton
and the Attorney General said, as they
walked on together, it would be curious
to notice whether anything ensued on
this /; and they agreed to notice. He
was shot that night. Life o.

The Lion.

DR.. Livingstone is said to have ex-
pressed the utmost contempt for lions.
You talk about the majesty of the
hon," said he, chatting one day at a
party in London with Sir Edmund
Landseer, "but you do not know the
beast. There is no more majesty about
him In the forest thap there is about
that poodle. 1t is ali poetry. Lions
are arrant towards cowardly, sneaklng
beasts. You can bsrdly tell lion from
a donkey when you come upon him In
the forest; and if YOU come upon lion
suddenly, his first impulse is to tuck
his tail between his legs and bolt. He

THE MYSTERY OF THE HUMAN
HEART
By OWEN MEREDITH.

Midnight past. Not round of aught
Through the silent house but the wind at his
sat by the dying fire and thought
OF the dear, dead woman upstairs.
A night of tears; for the gusty rain
Had ceased, but the caves were dripping YETI
And the moon looked forth, as though in pain
With her face all white and wet.
Nobody with me my watch TO keep.
But the friend of my bosom, the man love;
And grief has sent him fast asleep
In the chamber up above.
Nobody else, in the country-place
All round, that knew of my loss beside,
But the good young priest with the Raphael-face,
VINO confessed her when she died.
That good young priest is of gentle nerve,
And my grief had moved him beyond control;
For his lips grew white, as / could observe,
When speeded her parting soul
sat by the dreary hearth alone;
thought of the pleasant days of yore;
said. =" The staff OF my life is gone;
The woman love is no more.
Which next TO her heart she used 70 wear,
Haunting it DER with her tender eyes
When my face was not there.

And pearls which a Peri might have kept
For each ruby there my heart hath bled-
For each pearl my eyes have wept.'
And said, "The thing is precious to me-;

1t lies on her heart, and lost must be
If do not take il away

And crept up the stairs that cracked fol fright,
Till into the chamber of death came
Where she lay in al her white

1t had warmed that heart to life with love;
For the thing touched was warm, swear,
And could feel it move.
Twas the hand of a man, that was moving slow
Ger the heart OF the dead-from the other side !;
And at once the sweat broke over my brow
'swho is robbing the corpse? 2" cried.
Opposite me, by the taper's light,
The friend of my bosom, the man loved,
Stood over the corpse, and all as white
And neither of us moved.
"what do you here, my friendev The man
Looked first at me, and then a. tine dead

We found the portrait there. in its place;

Twelve Children i'm Twenty Months.

The Sharpsville PENN Advertiser
quotes the following statement from
another paper: 1--WE have before us a
clipping from a copy Of Liberty Hall,
published in this city in 1916, where a
most marvellous phenomenon is related
the name of the physician being given
of Mrs. John Kelly, of Mercer county,
Pennsylvania, who had just given birth
to five children, that being the second
effort of the kind within twelve months,
or ten children born within the year" "
And the Advertiser adds this: :" Mrs.
Kelly, referred to above, resided in
Lackawannock township. Mrs. Wal
lace, now residing in this place, remem-
bers the circumstances of the birth of
the ten children very well, having been
present on both occasions. DR.. Magof-
fin, OF Mercer, was the physician. Mrs.
Kelly died about year after this event,
but in the meantime had twins, having
given birth to twelve children within
twenty months. Mr.. Kelly is still liv-
ing, and now resides at Sharon"
