THERE COMETH RESI-.
by LUTHER c. RIGGS.

Toll on, and never cease,
% troubled brain weary with pain
with thoughts oppressed, while seeking rest,
Nor ask from toll release
Alter the pain, as after rain,
There cOmeth rest.
Keep watch, o heavy eyesl
Nor rest In sleep, but vigils keep,
Through the lone night, till day dawns bright,
Nor pine for sunny skies
Thy lone watch past, sweetly at last,
There cometh sleep.
Throb on, o aching heart,
Nor seek release till time shall cease
o weary heart $50 faint thoU art

Hope sure shall bring from pain sureease,
And sweetest peace.

Augusta, Me-, Jan. S-Both branches
assembled quietly. There was no comparl.

the police force continuing under the con.
troll of the sheriff and mayor.
Immediately on opening the senate, Sen.
atos Hobson Of Lincoln offered the follow.
ing:
Ordered that joint select committee OF
thre. on the part OF tue senate be appointed
by the cnair to investigate the Charges oil

been attempted on members of the lepisla-
ture since they received their certificates

and that the committee he instructed to
commence their investigation .O-dav on ad-
jourment Of the session, aud report as soon
10 may be.
This order was opposed by Senators
Locke, Harris, Berry and other republicans
on the ground that there was not even a
street rumor, if 20, they would gladly ap-
point it. If members of the house had heen
bribed or intimidated then the investigation
should begin there.
The order passed.

Field attended, but remained only short

having understood that to be the dinner-hour,
and, as there was no other seat, took the chair
left vacant by Justice Field, whose card
still remained by his plate AS the evening
progressed stories were circulated and con-
yersation became very free and general, as
no reporters we're present During the coll
yersation Mr.. Price stated it as his opinion
that the reconstruction measures would soon
be "smasled up" and sent to Kingdom

was overheard BY an eavesdr0pping re-

aged after dinner was over to get into the

Chicago is supplied with lake water through
two tunnels, one having capacity Of 50,
GOO 600 gallons daily and the other 10o,-
0o0, ,000 gallons, making an aggregate OF sup
ply to the wells of 150, ,000, 600 gallons per day.
The present capacity Of the Water-Works to
pump and distribute is equal to 100, ,000. GOO
gallons daily. The average quantity pumped
is o5.ooo, 900, though one day of extreme heat
the pumps were worked at the rate of 800o0,-
QUO gallons. The original plan included a1-
ditional engines at the West Side Works
which would add 25,0o0, 900 gallons to their
capacity per day.
The present pumps are located at points
distant from each other nearly four miles
in an air line. The two pumps are en-
gagged in giving force to distribution ex-
tending nearly four miles in a direct line,
and tapped BY innumerable pipes running
several miles in various directions. The con-
sequence is, that the force given by the stand
pipes is essentially weakest at the point
where these two currents meet, and that
happens to be in the heart Of the city, where
the large and high buildings are to
be found, and where the greatest pressure in
the mains is needed. Considering the con-
tinuous and large growth Of Chicago and the
wide area which it now covers and always
will cover-considering also the magnitude
OF the suburbs at present and the certainty,
If not necessity, that these suburbs will be in
corporated with the city proper, and that
their territory will have to be supplied with

come within the s' s'Egotist's" definition Of fail
ure, and unfortunately such cases are so nu-
merous that those we have been citing are
only the exceptions, unless it be in time Of
panic when one large failure may topple
down smaller concerns which may have been
perfectly honest In management. If man
has managed his business in an fmprudent,
reckless, and extravagant manner; it he has
been a drunkard or a gambler; If he has
soaandered money in fast living; if his fami-
ly have been extravagant; If they have been
running expensive eQuipages, hinging away
money at watering places and in making for
eign tours; If he has been giving
out the impression that he is mar
ing money when in reality he Is spending
other peoples money,-then his creditors
have reason to be exasperated with him.
He should never be allowed credit again.
He is not worthy of trust, and It he is
Stunned as financial leper he has no one
but himself to blame. The whole question
turns upon the exercise OF prudence, hon
esty, and economy. If these qualities have
characterized q businessman, he can recover
himself, and in ninety-nine cases out OF
hundred does recover; if they have not he
ought not to recover. But when failure IS
honest, and arises from unforeseen and una
voidable contingencies, every successful man
knows how dangerous and hard-hearted it
would be not to extend sympathy and assist
ance. The trouble with the "Egotist " IS
oyerstatement. He paints his whole picture
black, but only represents one side OF the
