A Truthful Sketch.

Let a man fail in business, what an
effect it has on his former creditors!
Men who have taken him by the arm,
laughed and chatted with him by the
hour, shrug their shoulders and pass on
with a cold show do you dol every
trife Of bill is hunted up and present.
ed that would not have seen the light
for months to come, but for the mis-
fortune Of the debtor. fit is paid, well
and good if not the scowl OF the
sheriff, perhaps, meets him at the cor
ner. A man that has never failed
knows but little Of human nature.
In prosperity he sails along gently,
V afted by favoring smiles and kind
words from everybody. lie prides
himself on his name and spotless char
acter, and makes his boast that ne has
not an enemy in the world. Alas the
change. He looks at the world in a
different light when reverses come up
on him. he hardly knows how to move
or to do this thing or the other; there
are snies about him, writ is ready
at his back. To know what kind OF
stuff the world is made of a person must
he unfortunate and stop paying once
in his lifetime. II he has kind friends,
then they are manifest. A failure is q
moral seive, it brings out the wheat
and shows the chat. A man thus
!, learns that words and pretended
good viii are moi, and do not constitute
!, real friendship.

WRITTEN IN CHILD 3 ALBUM.
Twas sung of old in hut and hall
How once King in evil honr
Hung musing DER his castle wall,
And. lost in Idle dreams, let tall
Into the sea his ring OF power.
Then. let him sorrow as he might,
And pledge his daughter and his throne
To who restored the jewel bright,
The broken spell would meier unite;
The grim old ocean held his own.
Those awful powers no man that "alt'
On man, the beggar or the King,
TO hovel bare or hall OF state
A magic ring that masters tate
With each succee ding birthday bring.
Therein are set tour jewels rare
Pearl Winter, Summers ruby blaze,
Springs emerald, and, than all more fa'r,
Fall's pensive opal, doomed to bear
A heart OF fire bedreamed with haze.
To him the simple spell who knows
The spirits OF the ring to sway,
Fresh power with every sunrise flows,
And royal pursuivants are those
That fy his mandates to obey.
But he that with slackened will
Dreams of things past or things to be,
From him the charm is slipping still,
And drops, ere he suspects the Ill,
Into the memorable sea.

dreadful deed that had been wrought.
These only, and the dead man. told
the Mortified spect ators that the miss
inc bride and no accident had worked
the awful murder Of the night. A
maniac. as she had undoubtedly been
for weeks before; that bride, with her
veins full of the sevreal poisons she
had herself taken and vein opened
at either wrist, ran shrieklng through
the street to the waters OF the bay,
and there plunged in. A policeman,
who had followed, bravely drew her
out Of the tide, only to have her wrest
herself from his grasp, with the
strength of insanity, and fly again up
the dark street with speed mocking
pursuit. Darling for a moment into
the house of one of the friends OF the
ill-fated Josephson. and as rapidly dis
appearing again before the appalled,
family could speak to her. the mlser-
able fugitive finally crawled, like some
wild animal, under residence on Leav-
enworth street, near Pine, and there
remained in despairing covert
b rough two whole days and nights.
Living yet, after SO many combined
efforts Of self-destrectiOn, the once
| beautiful Antonio Won Apponig is a
maniac in the hands Of California JUS
tice, doomed, probably, to end IN
madhouse tragedy to which that OF
romancer or dramatist is less strange
imitation. The solution to be conjec'
tured is that the contest between nat,
ural woman-love and an exaggerated
sense of sisterly duty wrought the per
version of insanity in the girls I'm
schooled nature adding another in
stance to that already long list OF thu
sinister romances of real life, from
which the novelist can seldom borrow
literally without danger OF fiippan
; discredit to the probability of his mar
, ratiyo.

The recent great rise in oil has led

hear of a discovery of petroleum as far

Troops to be Withdrawn from the South Car
Olina State House.

A Washington Associated press tel
egram of April I'd says: At the Cab
met meeting this morning the Secre-
tarv of War was directed to prepare
an order for the removal of the troops
| from the State House in Columbia, ).
G.. to their camp. The order will not
be formally executed for four or five
DAYS as the rival Governors wish time
to reach Columbia before it is put in
force.
when Governor Hampton was in
formed in advance of official notlfica-
ton that an order would be issued Tor
the removal of the troops from the
State House he expressed himself much
gratified, but said it was no more than
he expected from the principles an
nounced in the inaugural address. He
was somewhat interested to know
whether the order was to take I'M
mediate effect, as he wished to be
present In Columbia when it was ex.
ecuted. However, as a precautionary
: measure, he would at once telegraph

est wish that there should

! such as might disturb the pub
lie peace, and he was satisfied his ad-
! vice would be respected, and on with
I drawal Of the troops from the State
r House he would direct that a guard OF
q two, unarmed, be sent there to guard
: it from improper intrusion, and he
thought such force would be suffic-
r lent for the purpose. He felt salts
fed that there would be no disturb
+ ance whatever, and that the people
" throughout the state would take cour-
n age in the effort to repair their shat
q tered industries. He called this after
n noon to take leave of the President
IS and thank him for the withdrawal OF
le the troops, repeating the assurances
a given in his recent letter that all
q should share alike in the protection Of
fe the law, and not doubling his ability
