Mrs. Hayes recently received at the
White House the seventy three female
delegates to the Women's National
Christian Temperance Union. Two of
the ladies made speeches and the Presi-
dent cordially responded, saying that
Mrs. Hayes would show the company the
house, that they might see what kind of
8 housekeeper she was. Accordingly
Mrs. Hayes escorted them through the
mansion, presenting flowers to the two
speakers. One Of the glass globes of the

The world owes, in the form of bonded
debts, about $4,000 millions Of dollars.
'The best estimates of the amount of gold
in the world gives it at 10000 million Of
dollars. Yet the world is asked to do
all its business and to pay all its debts in
gold. A few banking houses in Europe
own most Of this gold and own most of
the mines that produce gold. The figures
and the fact tell the story these few
owners have the business Of the world at
their mercy, and can make panic like
that of 1878 whenever ey want to- do it..
About the only hope there is for the pay
ment of this enormous debt IS through
the NLillerites.

THE ToRNADo'S TRACK.

The Elements Combine to Destroy.
Augusta, Ga, Feb. 5.-About seven
O'Clock last evening the city was visit
ed with a shower of hail followed by
rain storm, accompanied by thunder
and lightning and the rumbling and
tremor of an earthquake. This was
followed, little after one O'Clock, by
cyclone, which struck the city on the
southwest, near Centre street and de-
molished the houses along its course.
The lower market house was literally
lifted and smashed into atoms. Seve-
raj brick and wooden buildings were
wholly or partially destroyed. The
cyclone travelled from southwest to
northeast and covered space about
three hundred yards wide. Several
casualties have been reported.
Augusta, Feb. s.-The Columbia
railroad depot is total wreck, and
some damage is done to the Central
road depot. Many private residences
have been injured, Charles Davis and
wife (colored) were found dead in the

From Peace to War.

London, Feb. SIN the House Of
Lords, Lord Derby, foreign secretary,
made statement similar to that of Sir
Stafford Northcote in the House. He
said he was justified in his resignation
when the fleet was first sent to Constan-
tinople, but he approved of the present
action in consequence of the altered as
pect of affairs. In the House of Com
mons Sir Stafford Northcote's an
nouncement was received with deafen-
ing cheers.
London, Feb. Sc p. m.-In the
House of Commons this afternoon, Sir
Stafford Northcote, chancellor of the
exchequer, communicated a summary
Of the terms of the armistice. He said
they disclose such a state of affairs that
the government, in view of a possible
disturbance in Constantinople, has Or
dered portion of the fleet thither, not
as departure from neutrality but
as protection of life and property.
The government has notified the other
powers of this step, asking whether they
will join in the movement. 1t has also
notified Russia.

OUR ARMY MUST BE REDUCED.

Fort Benton, NJ. T., Feb. 7.-Chas.
Buckman arrived from Fort Bleggett
last evening, with the following impor.
tant news:
On the 18th inst, the Crows and
Gros Ventres at Fort Bleggett discov.
cred the moccasin tracks of about 1OC
Sioux in the vicinity of their camp,
and pieces of tobacco tied to stick
were found, which meant that the
Sioux desired to smoke and hold a
council. The Crows and Gros Ven
tres, however, considered the tobacco a
decoy, and were afraid to venture out.
The following day, Maj. Reed, who
was at the Fort, started for his rancho
in company with one of the Crows.
When a few miles ont they discovered
a large party of Sionx, mounted, and
were compelled to turn back. That
night all the Indians camped near the
Fort tied their horses to the lodges,
but in spite Of this precaution, fifty
head Of animals were stolen, evidently
by the mounted party seen the day pre-
vious.
A party on foot is supposed to be
still prowling near the Fort.
Lame Bull, Gros Ventre, has gone
with the Crows into the Judith coun-
try, taking the lodges of his own people
with him, and advising the rest to
follow.
A Gros Ventres Indian came in from
the Marias, to-day, and reported that a
member of the Blackfeet tribe recently
came to his camp on the Marias to
learn how he and his people felt about
joining the Sioux. 1t appears that these
Sioux have held council with the Sans
Ares, at Cypress mountains, when the
Sioux stated that they wanted to form
a alliance with all the northern tribes,
to kill off the whites before the latter
became too numerous. The Sans ARCS
communicated with the Blackfeet, and
the latter sent this Indian to negotiate
with the Gros Ventres and Piegans.
Before the Gros Ventre Indian from
whom this information was got left
the Marias, a runner from the main
camp on Milk river had come in
with news to the effect that delega-
tion of nine Sioux had come to the
camp to get the Gros Ventres and As
sinaboines to join them against the
whites. The Gros Ventres profess to
have threatened the party, whereupon
the latter went outside of the camp,
dug hole and dared them to come on.
They say they would have attacked
them, but were afraid of the Assina-
BONES.

The Most stupendous Work of Human
Hands.

THE Great Wall of China was measured
in many places by Mr.. Unthank, an Ameri-
can engineer lately engaged on a survey for
Chinese railway. His measurements
give the height at 1S feet, and a width on
top of Is feet. Every few hundred yards
there is tower "a feet square and from 20
to As feet high. The foundation of the
wall is solid granite. Mr. Unthank brought
with him brick from the wall, which is
supposed to have been made 200 years be-
fore the time of Christ. In building this
immense stone fence to keep out the Tar
tars, the builders never attempted to avoid
mountains or chasms to save expense. For
1900 miles the wall goes over plain and
mountain, and every foot of the foundation
is in solid granite and the rest of the struc-
ture solid masonry. In some places the
wall is built smooth up against the bank or
canyons or precipices, where there is u sheer
descent of 1000 feet. Small streams are
arched over, but in the larger streams the
wall runs to the waters edge and a tower
is built on each side. On the top of the
wall there are breastworks or defences fac
ing in and out so the defending force can
pass from one tower to the other without
being exposed to any enemy from either
side. To calculate the time of building or
cost of this wall is beyond human skill. So
far as the magnitude Of the work is con-
cerned, it surpasses everything in ancient
or modern times of which there is any trace.
The pyramids Of Egypt are nothing COM
pared to it.

THE DEPARTED POPE.
Preparations for His Funeral and the
Election of His Successor.

GACNb0h VI E1lS ouGCCSsCt.
Rome, Feb. S.-Forty-three Cardi.
mails are now here and ten more have
sent notice by telegraph of their inten.
tion to come.
The public lying-in-state of the Pope's
remains is anticipated.
The Ultramontane candidates for the
Papacy are Cardinals Luigi Bilio and
Antonio Panebianco. The Liberal
candidates, Cardinals Innocente Fer
rieri and Camilla DE Pietro.
The congregation of Cardinals to-
day heard the Pope's last wishes rela-
tive to the conclave and his funeral.
Cardinals Bilio, Pecca and Di Pietro
will govern the church pending the
election of Pontiff.
All the church bells in Rome are
tolling.
Prince Amadeus has arrived here to
assume his place at the head of the
army corps of Rome.
The official Gazette of the Italian
government pays tribute and eulogy to
Plus TX, and promulgates orders for
the suspension of all public amuse-
ments while the remains are lying in
state. The official declaration of the
physicians who attended the Pope dur
ing his last illness is published. 1t
states that the immediate cause of
death was paralysis of the lungs.
The Italio says the congregation of
Cardinals decided only by majority of
three to hold their conclave in Rome.
1t will await the arrival of the foreign
Cardinals before taking any final reso-
luton. All the Cardinals here except
Amat and Panebianco, who are sick,
attended the preliminary congregation
in the hall of the Consistery to-day.
They decide that the Pope should lie
in state three days in the Basilica of
st. Peter. The ceremonies will last
altogether nine days, after which the
conclave will meet.
The italian court and ministry has
notified Cardinal Vicar that they will
attend the funeral if proper places are
allotted them.
In Spain the churches will be draped
in black for ten days.
The Portuguese government, which
enjoys a right of veto in the Papal
election, is endeavoring, in accord, with
other Catholic powers, to obtain the
election of a Pope who will put an end
to the conflict between Church and
State.
The Pope's funeral will be conducted
according to ancient usage.

The Pure in Heart.

Who are the pure in heart? Not those
whose outward lives wear the semblance of
extreme sanctity-not those whose voices
are loudest in the songs Of praise, and whose
good deeds are blazoned forth to the world.
The truly pure in heart are sensitive, shy,
unobtrusive men and women, who traverse
their appointed way as modestly as some
hidden rivulet flows through q quiet vale.
There is no fretting or foaming, or dashing
impetuously onward. Their course is
marked only by the fertility and beauty
which attend it.
The poet, if he be truly gifted with "the
vision and faculty divine" should, above
all men, belong to that privileged order Of
beings, who, in their exalted moments,
stand face to face with Divinity itself His
studies, his solitary musings, his close OBJ
servations of the changing aspects of earth
and sky, all tend to elevate his thoughts
and purify his heart When. after long
and intimate communion with the spirit of
Nature, he enters her solemn temples, the
veil that hid the mysteries of the universe
Ia drawn aside, and he feels himself in the
presence Of the Infinite. Then, in winds
and waves, and whispering leaves, he hears
melody, which is, to his exalted sense, the
voice of God.
But those who, by their innocent purity
Of heart, most truly realize the meaning Of
the phrase, are little children. Watch a
little child in some of those light troubles
which pass, like a summer cloud, over the
pure mirror of its thoughts Is it not evil
dent some seraph hand dries the tears ere
they have time to leave one stain on the rosy
cheek? Watch that little child in its
moments of happiness, mark its radiant eye,
listen to its accents of Joy, and you will be
sure that some spirit-voice is whispering
ecstatic promises to its soul Talk to a
little child Of heaven, and straightway
heaven is mirrored in its face Watch an
active healthy boy in his outdoor pastimes !;
he is always daring, always reckless, always
in peril of life or limb, yet always upheld
and saved by some angel hand.

Sitting Bull Not Wanted There.
Ottawa, Feb. s.-The Dominion Par
lament opened with speech from the
throne by the Governor General. He
alluded with satisfaction to the settle
ment of the fishery question, and re-
ferred in the following language to the
American Indians now on Canadian
soil.
early in the past summer a large
body of Indians under Sitting Bull, from
the United States, crossed into British
Territory to escape from United States
troops, and have since remained on the
Canadian side. The U. S. Government
made friendly but unsuccessful at
tempt to induce the Indians to return
to their reservations. 1t is to be hoped
that such arrangement may yet be
madelas may lead to their permanent
peaceful settlement, and thus relieve
Canada of a source of uneasiness and
heavy expenditure.

A BILL was introduced in the New
York Assembly yesterday to prevent
the use of incendiary language. 1t is
the same as the California law to pro-
hibit the use of language calculated to
incite riots, framed and passed at the
request of wealthy citizens of San Fran
cisco who feared the power displayed
by the working masses of that city. 1t
is styled the ''gag law' by the latter
class, and is used to disperse meetings
of workingmen and to prevent any Or
ganized effort on their part to redress
real or imaginary grievances.

Peace or War?

London, Feb. S.-The gravest I'M
certainty and alarm pervade England.
Whatever may be the facts regarding
the Russian advance, one thing be-
comes clearly evident in England: The
war party is fully as strong as the peace
party and every day seems to add to the
former some strength. All interest in
the conference is forgotten, and if il
should be found that Russia has out
witted England again, even the Liberal
party would not venture to oppose de-
cided action.

THE Vienna correspondent of the
London Times, commenting on the
Russian occupation of the defensive
lines Of Constantinople, says: "The
mystery which still envelops the con-
ditions of the armistice leaves plenty of
room for further surprises. Thus it
looks very much as if the evacuation
of the Danube fortresses by the Turks
will turn out to mean occupation by the
Russians. These surprises seem to be
bad preparations for conference.
