ONLY A huSk.

Tom Darcy, yet young man. had
grown to be very hard one. At heart
he might have been all right, If his
head and his viii had only been right;
but these being wrong the whole ma
chine was going to the bad very fast,
though there were times when the
heart felt something of its old truthful
warnings. Tom had lost his place AS
foreman in the great machine shop,
and what money he now earned came
from odd jobs of tinkering which he
was able 10 do. here and there, at pri-
yate houses. for Tom was 4 genius as
well as a mechanic, and when his head
was steady enough he could mend a
clock. or clean a watch, as well as he
could set up and regulate steam en-
cine-and this latter he could do better
than any man ever employed by the
Scott Falls Manufacturing Company.
One day Tom had Il job to mend a
broken moving machine and reaper
for which he received five dollars, and
ON the following morning he started
/ out for his old haunt-the village taY'
ern. He knew that his wife sadly
needed the money. and that his two III
! tie children were absolutely suffering
from want OF clothing, and that morn
| ing he held debate with the better
part of himself: but the better part hac
become very weak and shaky, and ths
demon Of appetite carried the day.
50 away to the tavern Tom went
where, for two or three hours. he Tel
the eXhilerating effects of the alcoholic
draught. and fancied himself happy
as he could sing and laugh; but, a
usual, stupefaction followed and tn
man died out. He drank while h
could stand. and then lay down i'll
corner, where his companions left him
1t was late at night, almost lnidnlgh
when the landlord S wife came into tn
bar-room to see what kept her husband
up, and she quickly saw Tom.
Peter" said she, not in pleasan
mood, why don't You send that mis-
cradle Tom Darcy home! lies bee
hanging around here long enough.
Toms stupefaction was not SCUM
sleep. The dead coma had left HI
: brain and the calling of his name stun
his senses TO keen attention. He ha
an insane love of rum. but did not 10y

) Tindar and himself had loved the sam
! sweet maiden--Ellen Goss-and h
, won her. leaving Peter 10 take up wit
the vinegar spinster who had brougf
him the tavern and he knew that latel
the tapster had gloated over the mil
f cry of the woman who had once dlscars

The Brickmakers' Strike.

HAvERsTRAw, May %.
The striking brickmskers are compelling
men at work to quit, and where they re-
fuse they are clubbsd. The militia, head
ed by the sheriff, village officers and police,
have just started to arrest the rioters.
Serious trouble is expected. When the
rioters saw the militia they threw down
their clubs and quieted. The militia re-
turned to the ba racks, and the strikers
again becam rurbu ent.
The streets are full Of people but all is
quiet. The brick manufacturers held a
meeting this aftern y in council with ex-
judge and sheriff. A res 'lutlon has been
passed unanimously and signed by all the
brickmakers that they would not advance
wages but would adhere to the wages
agreed upon in the early part Of the season.;
also that they would suspend operations
until quiet was restored. Sheriff Hutton
holds warrants for the arrest of the ring
leaders. Patrick Moran was arrested and
taken before Justice Cole, who committed
him to await ex min zion. 1t is expected
other arrests will be made tonight. Two
companies of militia are still here.
The brickmakers at Verplancks Point
struck t'-day. Trouble Is anticipated. The
Peekskill military company has been or
dered to the scene.

HOW HE GOT OUT OF TT.

The following candid statement is from
the postmaster OF North Clymer, N. y.
After reading it will any one undertake to
say that 1t would be possible to find Ian
guage wherewith to express the value of a
remedy possessed Of such capabilities for
renovatipg the human system and benefit
ting the community? Yet in point of fact,
this is only representative expression of
the grateful souls that DAY by cay volun-
tarily add their testimony. Still there is
feeling that whatever may be advertised
as proprietary medicine must have more
or less exaggeration attached to it, whereas
the exact fact is that, generally speaking,
there are no medicines in existence made
with so much care and pains and with so
little regard to expense, in order to insure
entire precision Of action and general ef-
fectiveness.
