why She Went Down Stairs.

"Gentlenen, of he jurv," he said,
yesterday, sit has been asked by the
opposing counsel why my client went
down stairs. That the blush of
shame did not mantle the cheek of
my learned friend while putting such
an inquiry argues a heart whose sem
sibilitles are wholly deadened. The
astonishment which is depicted up
on your countenances, gentlemen, is
sufficient to assure me that you ap-
preciate the position in which this in
jured wife and delicate woman was
placed. (The j. W. a. d. ". weighed
10 at least, and mad very red face
of uneven surface.) Why did she go
down stairs, gentlemen? The ques-
tion has been asked, and | answer.
Turn your gaze upon this beast; this
monster in the semblance Of man;
this demon in human form; this devil
who insults Gods image! Let him
speak! (The beast, etc, evinced
signs of rising wra,h.) Take his
sworn testimony. Here is the ques-
ton: why did Mrs. Bulgrady go
down stairs?' Answer-'I h'isted
her.
Gentlemen of the jury, he h'isted
her! Great heavens! he h'isted her!
He, the brute, once, perhaps, a msn,
raised his foot and applied it to the
form of her who at the holy altar, he
had sworn to love and cherish. She,
a blushing bride, standing before the
man of God, breathing timidly the
vow which bound her forever to B.l-
gruddery. Then happy mother,
holding to her breast the pledges of
love which heaven had granted.
And yet he listed her! Not only
did he hist her, gentlemen of the
Jury, but it is in evidence that he
took fat-iron from her hand, and
accompanied the kick with q blow
from that useful domestic utensil.
And yet the learned gentleman has
the audacity to ask why Mrs. Bul.
gruddery went down stairs"
At this point the excited attorney
gave a wild laugh and was ordered
to sit down. Bulgruddery was con-
victed.- Virginia, Nec.,) Chronicle.

TINE LOST BABIES

Come, my wife, put down the Bible,
Lay your glasses on the book,
Both Of US are bent and aged
Backward, mother, let us look.
There Is still the same old homestead
Where brought you long ago,
When the hair was bright with sunshine
That is now like winters snow.
Let us talk about the babies
A We cit here all alone,
Such merry troop Of youngsters;
How We lost them one by one.
Jack, the first Of all the party,
Came to me one winters night.
Jack, you said. should be parson,
Long before he saw the light.
Do you see that great cathedral,
Filled the transept and the nave,
Hear the organ grandly peAling,
Watch the silken hangings wave;
See the priest In robcs Of Office,
With the altar at his back
Would You think that gifted preacher
Could be our own little Jack!
Then girl with curly tresses.
Used to CLINT. upon my knee,
Like little fairy princess
Ruling at the age Of three.
With the years there came a wedding
How your fond heart swelled with pride
When the lord Of all the country
Chose your baby for his bride!
Watch that stately carriage coming,
And the form reclining there
Would you think that brilliant lady
Could be your own little Clares
Then the last, q blued eyed youngster-
can hear him prattling now
Such strong and sturdy fellow,
With his broad and honest brow,
How he used to love his mother!
All! see your trembling lip!
He 10 far Of on the water,
Captain Of royal ship,
See the bronze upsn his forehead,
Hear the voice Of stern command
That the boy who clung 80 fondly
To his mothers trembling hand!
All! my wife, we've lost the babies,
Ours 30 long and ours alone;
What are We to these great people,
Stately men and women growns
Seldom do We even see them;
Yes, . bitter tear-drop starts,
As We sit here in the fre-light,
Lonely hearth, and lonely hearts,
All their lives are full without us;
They'll stop long enough one day
Just to lay us in the church yard,
Then they'll each go on their way.

Your committee in the exercise OF
conferred discretionary powers, au-
thcrized the following donations, and
after having duly considered the ap-
peals for the same, placed the follow
ing amounts At the disposal Of the
Masters of the respective State
Oranges: Tennessee, $1,000; Mis-
souri,, $1,000; Arkansas, $500; Colo
RADIO, $500, and Iowa, 81 ,068.4,.
The committee recommend the
selection Of Louisville % the head
quarters OF the National Grange, and
the recommendation was, on ballot,
concurred in.
The Dominion Grange has con-
tinued to increase in numbers and in
fuence until it contains within its
jurisdiction $50 subordinate oranges.
The time has arrived when the Ma
tional Grange is called upon to es.
tablish some general principles in
reference to oranges in foreign coun.
tries, and your committee would re
spectfully recommend that standing
committee on Foreign Relations be
appointed to take the subject matter
under consideration, The following
is the Secretary's report:
During the past three years we
have supplied 22,620 oranges with
their outfits, and issued large
amount Of extra materials, such Is
song books, manuals, tracts, etc.
In the history of organization our
Order is the greatest schievment OF
modern times. The Masonic Order,
consisting of blne lodges, chapters,
commanderies, and other branches oi
its organization, numbers twelve
thousand nine hundred and thirty
lodges -. Aho en.irs globe. Tho Ode
Fellows number seven thousand anG
ffty-one lodges, encamnmcnts, etc.
giving total Of nineteen thousand
nine hundred aud eigh,y-one in the
whole world, and those Orders are
from thirty TO one hundred years old
while at the outside We have bu,
eight years growth, aud have issued
twen,y-four thousand two hundred
and ninety charters. confined to the
United States alone.
|, is quite reasonable to suppose
that maay Of the Grsuges organized
under the excitement Of last year
should b weak, but our records at
at this da'e show only CSC that have
been consolidated, suspended, or had
their charters revoked since the FL ST
introduction of the order.
State Secretaries his year report a
paying membership Of 762, ,263, while
the increase Of new oranges for the
past month has been 9?.
The total amount of moneys re-
ceived in the Secretary's office and
deposited in the fiscal agencies dur.
ing the past three years is, in round
numbers, about $35O,000, exceeding
the united laid up capital of all the
purely agricultural societies in the
United States for the pas, 6ftv years,
or, in Tact since they first had An ex.
istence.
We have on our books | ,247 Dep.
uties appointed by the State Masters
the present year. There have been
during the past three years 3,l's
Deputies supplied with manuals and
other documents, leaving in most ol
the States enough to supply all the
Deputies that may hereafter be ap'
pointed, as well as all new oranges
that NAV be organized.

The csiminality, rs well M stupidity, Of t1,i
business Of attempting 10 cocrco wages under
Tho penalty Of stopping work, wns illustrated
In Pittsburg. The m,lt-owncrs, ,lrsblo to

posed n reduction of wngcs. The p,,adlcrH

10 work. Tho mills stopped; this threw out
Of employment all tho miners Of orc ; it
threw out Of employment some 10000 irorl-
makers and miners Of conl this reduced tho
business of tho railways, aud reduced the
number OF their laborors Md the result was,
TINT the abor.ys effort Of the pntlllcrs put
10000 worlmen out Of work, a,l the most Of

Tho anthracite coal business Is largo one
In chicago. The country for hundreds Of
mi1cs is supplied from this city. When the
price Of hn1Nlling coal is 50 advanced in Chi
cago that It cnn be handled ut other la1;o ports
cheaper thnn here, thon the coal will GO there
for distribution instead Of coming here. So
Chicago will lose the trade and the coal
llca7ors tho work. This coal trade gives EN-
1aoy1neut 10 many hundreds Of other m en-, in
tho way of loatling bonts and cars it gives
freight business to the cannl and raiiiroatls,
nil of which employment fails with the TRIMS
.f In una1 i~r1 In IN r>{tor t1,o
lake. Every addition given to tho cost Of
hnndling coal is added with profit to. the cost
OF coal to tho consumers. Every llition to
tho price Of anthracite conf warrants cor
responding addition to the price 'af a1l other
vnriotias Of coal. So that whon the coal.
beavers add 100 per cent to the cost Of
handling anthracite coal, thereby taxing con-
snmcrs, the game nlvance follo'ss in the re-
tsil prico Of all other Goals which aro not

The conduct Of these mon can, In no aspect
Of tho case, be excused. They have p1nced
themselves beyond sympathy BY their brutal
violence towards their fellow-work,nen. They
have sought to destroy labor by refusing men
permission to work Mt what they deem liberal
and remunerative wagtH They havo at
tempted that which, il successful, would
kave driven m immense tratle from this city,
