Yesterday afternoon two of Hattie McBrides
sirens took advantage of election day to adver-
tise themselves. In one horse livery rig they
took up line of narcotic and by every voting
precinct in the city. Their approach in state
for time distracted the attention of
the most eager voter in the
discharge Of his great duty. At the
polling place, corner of Twelfth and Robert
strs cts, the demoiselles created quite sensa-
ton. In having their attention engaged in re-
turning the glances of the voters, the girls
drove over Mrs. Clark, who resides on Cooper.
Mrs. Clark was crossing the street when struck
and knocked down. The buggy passed over
her, but fortunately did no immediate great
danger, but owing to the lady's condition, it
may be that the after ults may be serious.
The sports were arrested and taken to the 20
lice station. There they explained the cause of
the accident and were released, to be called in
case they We're wanted.

company obtained a stay Of proceedings in the
United States courts, and then went hunting for
a live husband for the self-confessed widow.
They found him in San Francisco, brought him
to Carver. All the neighborhood recognized
him the veritable husband, who, like Rip
Van Wrinkle, had gone from home and the hear

wouldn't recognize him; doesn't yet, and de-
clares he's not part of her. She carries a
photo of the present applicant for marital

Steeple Climbing.
Cincinnati Enauirer.1

Joseph r. Weston, the celebrated
steeple-climber, assisted by Sam. A..
Hall and Charles Perrin, a few DAYS
since, removed the big hand from the
top of the steeple of the First Presby-
terrain Church, on Fourth-street, near
Main, Cincinnati, to the ground be-
meath, for the purpose of regilding it.
Owing to the fact that the hand, which
is made of copper, is over seven feet
high, and weighs one hundred and
seventy-fve pounds, had, during the
twenty-seven years it has been in posi-
ton, rustcd fast to the boiler-iroh shaft
which supports it On the steeple, con-
siderable difficulty was experienced in
getting it loose, and it took the three
daring men full half day to dislodge
it. To get to it they fastened ladders
to the side of the steeple, and when they
reached the hand two ladders were run
up above it, derrick fashion, and from
these block and tackle was swung, with
the aid of which, and the assistance of a
cold chisel and hammer. the work was
accomplished. The steeple is to be re-
painted from the brick work up, and
when the hand, newly gilded, isreplaced,
it will present very attractive appear
ance. While the work was going on
hundreds of spectators thronged the
streets watching its progress, and many
were observed viewing it blocks away
by the aid of telescopes. Mr.. Weston
has been a climber ever since his youth,
and now feels as much at home on q
steeple three hundred feet high as or
binary mortals do on terra firma. He
informed us that several years ago while
working on steeple in the West End
with several others, he took a man up
with him to aid him who thought he had
never enough to make climber. After
getting up pretty high the man was at
tackled with nausea and vomiting, and
finally became almost blind. His COM
panions would not take him down, how
ever, but fastened him securely, and
after half hour or so he got better and
his nausea passed away. He is now an
expert climber and engaged in business
in Indiana. A similar experience was
that of builder in Maine not long since
While working on steeple one hun
dred and fifty feet above ground, with
nc. one near him, he suddenly felt him
self growing sick and faint. Forum
ately he was working on a narrow scat
fold, and on this he lay on his back for
fully half an hour until his sickness left
him and the swimming in his head ceased
He then resumed his work, and when he
returned to earth he declared it was an
experience he never wished to repeat.

"NOt at HOme.o

A sign on house on Croghan-street,
Detroit, we learn from the Free Press,

The Gold Ofthe World.

The bulk of gold in the world steadily
increases, though the amount is but
roughly Appropriated. Ten years ago
it was estimated at about SIS, $50, 900, 900
in value. Unjust be gretlv larger now,
though we have no fixed data for approx
mating the amount. But it may be of
interest to see what the bulk of the
smaller sum ten years ago would be if it
were all melted and run together. Pure
gold is no more than nineteen times as
heavy as water, and cubic foot of water
weighs thousand ounces avoirdupois
A cubic foot of gold would weigh then
over nineteen thousand ounces avoirdu-
pois and every such ounce of fine gold is
worth according to our coinage) some
what more than $3.50 that the whole
cubic foot of gold would be worth lit,
tie more than third of million dollars.
A cubic yard of solid gold would be
worth twenty times as much as that, or
over nine million dollars; and six hun
dred and sixty cubic yards would con-
tain somewhat more than the SIS, $50, 900,
000gold in the world ten years ago. These
six hundred and sixty cubic yards would
be contained within room about fifteen
feet high, twenty-four feet wide and
forty-eight feet long; say a good-sized
parlor, or store of moderate size. "But,"
says some one, "gold is so very malleable
that even this small bulk of it would
gid over the whole earth" But he
either overestimates the malleabiIity of
gold, or, more likely, underestimate the
size of the earth. 1t takes 1890, 600
leaves of the thinnest gold foil to make
and inch in thickness, or about 1888,
600 to make a foot. or 46,000,00O to a
yard. A cubic yard of gold, then, could
be beaten out so as to cover $4,000, 900
square yards, somewhat less than ten
thousand acres, for there are 1910
square yards to the acre. Then, as there
are six hundred and forty acres to the
square mile, the whole six hundred and
sixty cubic yards of gold could be beaten
out so as to cover ten thousand square
miles; that is track only one hundred
miles-less than the extent of Vermont,
and little more than fifth of either
New York or Pennsylvania.

When evening shadows fall,
Alone, | watch with dreaming eyes
The freight on the well;
Alone, listen to the feet,
That in continuous stream
Pursue each other on the street,
And mingle with my dream.
None of them stop, with swift desire,
To enter at my door;
trim my lamp and stir my IRE
For homewaid feet no more.
Yet, with a trick OF listening,
Caught long and long ago,
] seem to hear the welcome ring
OF some / used 10 know.
Where are they wandering tonight?
What breadth OF land and sea
Lies dim and empty of delight
Betwixt my love and me7
Perchance, with green earth overspread,
He sleeps dreamless sleep,
Or tossing waves above his head
Their ceaseless murmur keep.
Never an echo from his heart
Has found its way to mine;
Yet, as the red Goals drop apart,
With shifting gloom and shine,
His face looks through the dancing FIRE,
Wild dreams dance through my brain,
He comes with all the old desire
And clasps me close again
Oh vision sweet, that day dispels!
Ii it could truly be,
No creature on the round earth dwells
That might not envy me.
Sometimes l think-but why recall
A thought too vain to last7
The freight fiickers on the wall,
The footsteps have gone past.
