life was great. Many persons were in-

ladders and by jumping into cloths held
below. The greatest efforts were made
to save life. The scene was terrible, the
flames shooting up through the roof

Forgetting the Password.

Numberless amusing instances might
be related of the fix officers occasionally
find themselves in by forgetting the
password. Two sentries were mounting
guard inside the walls Of the prison Mt
F, one tn each angle, with strict or
ders to detain any one attempting to
pass without giving the sign. The Lieu
tenant on his round of inspection passed
tn efirst sentry, giving the word cor
rectly enough. When half way between
the sentries sound ON the outside of
the wall attracted his attention, and,
while endeav1r:ng to investigate the
matter, the word quite slipped his men,
DRY. Finding his suspicion groundless
he approached the second sentry and
was again challenged, but, in spite OF
his utmost endeavors, he could not re-
member the word. Cant pass with
ont the word" was all the reply given
him. Returning to the first sentry he
was challenged as before, but, as he
could not give the word, was not allowed
to pass him either. No entreaties could
prevail. The sentries, not knowing but
that he was testing them, and rather en-
ioying the joke, il the truth must be
told, proved obdurate to ali persuasion.
Here, then, he was kept all night be-
tween the two, shivering and cold, till
the gray dawn appeared, when he was
relieved by the change of guard. -

LincoIn,s gettysburg Grafton.

Four score and seven years ego our
fathers brought forth ON this continent
new nation, conceived in liberty and
dedicated to the proposition that all men
are created equal.
Now we are engaged in great civil
war, testing whether that nation, or any
nation so conceived and so dedicated,
can long endure. We have met on a
great battlefield of that war. We have
come to dedicate portion of that field
as final resting place for those who
gave their lives that that nation might
live. 1t is altogether fitting and proper
that we should do this.
But, in a larger sense, we cannot dedi-
cate-we cannot conservative cannot
hallow-this ground. The brave men,
living and dead, who struggled here have
consecrated it far above our poor power
to add or detract. The world will little
note nor long remember what we say
here, bnt it can never forget what they
did here. It is for us, the living, rather,
to be dedicated here to the unfinished
work which they who fought here have
thus nobly advanced. 1t is rather for
us to be here dedicated to the great task
remaining before us-that from these
honored dead we take increased devo-
ton to that cause for which they gave us
the last full measure of devotion-that
we here highly resolve that these dead
shall not have died in vain-that this
nation, under God, shall have new
birth of freedom-and that govern
ment of the people, by the people, for
the people, shall not perish from the
earth

Advice to a Young Man.

We don't know much about it, of
course, but we should think, after man
has been Secretary of the Treasury for
three or four years, and had occasionally
dumped fifty millions of dollars into
Wall street to relieve the money market,
and had called in twenty million skies
at one time, and bought two millions of
bonds every week. and discussed eleven
millions one week and eighteen millions
the next, we should think it would gravel
him awfully to go back into his law
Office when the Administration changed,
and make out an abstract of n farm
away out in Buckshaw County, and sell
it for an old woman down in Kickapoo
Township to an old fellow out in
Waukindaw Settlement, and only get a
fee of thirty-two dollars, and have to
wait four months for that, and then
have to take n sorrel colt for it. Per-
haps the ex-Secretaries of the Treasury
don't mind it; but we just say we don't
believe we should like to get used to it.
And what's more, we don't believe we
would ike TO be President of the United
States four years, and then, about three
days after the other President was
inaugurated, have citizen point at us
on the street and say to his neighbor:
"That's DID," and hear the second
citizensay, "Who in thunder is ODD"
These things, my boy, do Desdemona
seriously incline TO keep out of politics.
And do You keep ont of 'em, also, my
son. Don't be the fool who is imbecile
enough, and has little enough self
respect and pride OF country, to boast
that he hasn't cast vote for twenty
years. Vote every time there is an
election; always think about and have
something TO say about the important
political questions of the day. But if
you want to be happy, don't run for
President. just gather an armful of
bricks and make it lively for the fellow
who does run. Then you will do your
duty by your country, and loving and
grateful people will forget you when
you are gone.-BUrdettc.

A Rows Luck.

The Norristown (Pa.) Herald in a re-
cent issue referred among others, to the
following cases of special interest. They
are their own commentary. Mr.. Samuel
G. Nyce, resides at 3OS Marahall street.
and holds the responsible position of
journal clerk in the Pennsylvania Legis-
lature, at Harrisburg. While Mr..
Nyce and family were in the country
recently, his boy, aged three years, fell
and broke his leg. He recovered. but a
very troublesome stiffness set in and he
conld scarcely use the leg. The injured
limb was rubbed several times with ST.
Jacobs Oil, and the Stiffness was so
much reduced that the boy was able TO
use his leg freely. DIR. Knipe said it
was the use of st. Jacobs Oil that cured
the stiffness. Mr. Nyce himself used
the Great German Remedy for tooth
ache with good effect, and also for a
sprain and pains of rheumatic nature,
and always with good effect. Mrs.
Nyce also gays she thinks the Oil is a
splendid thing, and she always keeps it
on hand.

The 4" BOSso Jockey i'm England.

Archer, the chief jockey in England,
has a larger income than the Queens
Prime Minister. His regular fees are
S25 for the mount if he wins, So if he
loses, and SO for trial. These fees
are the smallest part of his income, not
withstanding that he rides in q vast num-
Der of races every year. In 1876, he
won 172 races; in 1876, he won 207: in
1877 and in 1880, 100. He has net rid
den so many horses during the last two
years on account Of savage bite which
disabled ole arm for several months.
The fees for races are, however, insig-
nificant compared to the presents made
to him by owners of the horses he has
ridden. Gold watches. diamond rings,
riding harses, dog carts, yachts, suits of
clothes, hats, cases of champagne, etc.,
are quite common. Money gifts accom-
pany these smaller testimonials of graft
tude. Hegot So, 900 from Mr.. Lorillard
for winning the Derby, and Mr.. Keene
gave Foroham 81, 500 for winning the
Grand Prix of Paris. Still larger sums
than those have been given. The jockey
who won the Derby ten years ago with
Hermit was presented with SIS, eco.
The policy OF paying such sums to
jockeys has been much criticised, but
the amount of money at Stake is so large
that it is thought wise to protect the
jockeys against corrupt offers. Archer
has only TO ride his appointed horse.
He keeps a valet to assist in
changing his dress. he trav-
els from one race meeting to an
other in first-class carriage, probably
the companion of the nobleman by
whom he is employed. In winter he
rides to his hounds, or goes to town. In
1876 he is reported to have earned
$50 900.

written by the late John Henry Hoppe
to an adopted daughter. He left no will,
and his estate has been settled. Suit is

on the back of letter from him adj

claim the postscript and his signature to
it to be forgeries. It reads in part:
"Don't worry yourself, but take things
easy and do the best you can for the

accumulated a great deal of money

Fair Play for the Hog.

If our forefathers had studied the hog
with any closeness. we would have been
spared the sayings of: "Selfsh as
hog" hungry as pig and " lie eats
like regular hog" etc. TO begin with,
the hog is not selfish creature. Two
hogs will agree about as well rs two men,
and q hog who was taken along ON a
steamboat excursion would have cause to
say to his porkers: "You act like men
and women" The hog is not hungry
animal. Give him three square meals Il
day, and he is content. while mos. mer
must chew, smoke and nibble between
meals and have lunch at bedtime. To
"act like hog" would be to mind ones
business, go to bed early, and be salts
fed with the situation. The hog is not
liar, hypocrite or dead-beat. He acts
on the square, is always as represented,
and in disposition he has few equals in
the human race. He has been misun-
derstood and abused, and it is time that
his friends rallied to give him fair play.
