THE WHITE HOUSE.

History of the Home of the Presidents.
The presidents home at Washington,
which is officially termed the Executive
mansion, commonly called the White
house, has history that runs back ninety
years. Its corner stone was laid under
the superintendent of Capt. James Ho-
bon as architect on the 18th of December,
1892. Capt. Hobon was an Irish architect,
direct from Dublin, via Charleston, who
took the award of $500 for the design.
He is buried in the Catholic cemetery at
Washington, and his descendants are still
living in that city, The British destroyed
the building in 1874 1t was afterward
rebuilt by Capt Hobon, and was first
opened for the reception of visitors on
January l, 1919. The portico OF four
lofty columns, on the north side, was ad-
ded in 1929, during the administration OF
President Jackson. 1t is lofty building,
two stories in height, having a frontage
of ITO feet and depth of eighty feet.
The vestibule within the front door is
5Ox4O In dimensions. The famous east
room, which was finished only fifty years
ago, is eighty feet long by forty feet wide
and twenty-five feet high. The presi-
dents office, which is in the second
story, is also the cabinet room, and is not
very large apartment for the
White house, although about thirty-five
or forty feet in depth, by perhaps thirty
feet wide. A long table is in the middle
of the floor, with leather-seated chairs
around it; the two windows have long
lambrequin curtains of dark blush gray
color. "A large map of the United States
is on the wall The carpet is of red tint,
with large figures. The general effect OF
the room as one enters Is that OF library
without books. Every one of our presi-
dents, except Washington, has lived in
this great house.

Speculative knowledge is, of course,
good in itself, but the line between spec
ulation and practice cannot be drawn
absolutely. A pasha who had lost an eye
ordered glass one, and had it fitted in,
showing transports of joy; but when after
a months trial he found he could not see

nadoed and banished. Here there was a
lack of speculation on the part of the
pasha, but the too we'll known case of the
Indian prince and the seidlitZ powders is
doubtful. He first took the whole of
twelve blue powders, dissolved in a
punch bowl, and then, not feeling much
refreshed, took twelve whito ones

whether speculation or practice was most

ton of both is good thing. 1t is nOto-

DR.. Aberncthy.
Literary Journal

DIR. Abernethy occasionally met his
match in abruptness, as this story testi-
fies; for which the Lancet is authority.
A chancery barrister having for long
time suffered from an ulcer on his leg,
called upon the doctor for the purpose of
obtaining his advice. The lawyer, judg-
ing of an ulcer as of brief, that it must
be seen before its nature could be ascer-
tanned, was busily occupied in removing
his bandages, when Abernethy advanced
toward him, and said in stentorian
voice: "Helloa what are you about
there Put out your tongue, man Ay,
there tits; see it. I'm satisied--quite
enough, quite enough; shut up your leg,
man, shut it up. Take one of these pills
every night on going to bed" The law
yer put the box of pills in his pocket,
handed over fee, and was leaving the
room when Abernethy accosted him,
"Why, look here, this is but shilling"
His visitor sarcastichlly replied: Gay,
there it is, see it, Pm satisfied quite
enough, man shut it up, shut it up!"
and hastily quilted the room. And it is
related of a gentleman who came some
distance to see this doctor, and who was
about to be dismissed in the usual Off
hand style, that he locked the door and
put the key in his pocket, telling Aber-
nethy as he did so that, for his part, he
was solved to keep the doctor there till
he had given him q hearing.

'Winon & St. Peter railroad, Hastings q
Dakota division, on passenger train No. II,
between Hastings and Benton, exploded about
three miles east of Shakopee at 9:25 this fore

injuring fireman Bowers, perhaps fatally The
engine was blown about 12O feet, and Is
total wreck. The engineer was blown about
100 feet, and was found alive, but died shortly
after. Fireman Bowers was blown 22O feet
into plowed field and was taken up alive,
and recovered so as to talk intelli-
gently, and stroug hopes are entertained
of his recovery. Both engineer and fireman
are married. Engineer Bradley leaves sick
wife in Hastings, who it is thought will not
recover from the shock. Both men were taken
to Hastings by special train. No blame can
be attached to the engineer, fireman or con-
ductor The train was in charge of the etf1-

No one other than the engineer and fireman
was injured. Mr.. P. w. Case arrived about
noon, with wrecking crew and force to re-
move distractions.

THE CLOSING SCENE.

The grave has received its victim. In
the beautiful Lakevlew cemetery, on the
hanks of Lake Erie, rests all that is NOR
tai of James A. Garfield. He sleeps near
his birthplace, and but few miles dis
tant from the more recent home he loved
so well. Not only towns, cities and States,
but all the civilized nations of the world
Joined on yesterday in the burial rites of
the beloved citizen. The tears of the be-
reft mother, wife and children, which
believed the casket, had countless silent
companions from eyes unused to weep.
The proceedings yesterday were fit
ting tribute to the career just ended. 1t
was fitting that his earthly race should
terminate so near the spot where it be-
gan. He rests among the friends both
of his early and later days, and the waves
of the lake which lulled him to sleep in
childhood now sound his requiem,
Though buried from sight, the lesson
of James A. Garfield's life has left its
impress with us. 1t demonstrates what
application, industry and intelligence
can accomplish for man who seeks to
make use of them.
1t demonstrates that the limit of human
attainment rests with each Individual.
The summit lies before, and those who
will may climb. His life, from its COM
mencement to his Inauguration to the
highest position in the land, was tribute
to American institutions. He was great
because our country affords the oppor-
tunity for those who will, to become so.
He was famous, because he was recog-
nized as typical, representative Amer
lean.
But while we thus consider the les
sons of his life, the great grief OF his I'M
timely taking off crowds upon us. We
no longer look towards the White house,
but we turn to that desclated home at
Mentor, and think of the lonesome agony
which must keep company with Its be-
reaved occupants while life remains. The
careless, Indifferent world will move on.
No man is so great or important that he
is given more than a passing thought
when buried from sight. He
NAV be recalled as matter
of history, but the thoughtless who
gathered. yesterday to do honor to Gar
fields memory, will practically forget, to-
morrow. that he existed. Not So with
the venerable mother to whom the Attic
ton is less poignant because her race is
50 nearly run. Not so with the widow
bereft of her guiding star, who takes up
the burden of life anew, bearing about
with her a sorrow which no human
power can relieve To these sorrowing
ones our hearts 60 out unbidden. The
public sorrow is for day--their is for all
time.
The words of sympathy and pageantry
of Yesterday are Of no avail. The care
less worldly hum proceeds, while a shady
knoll, tenderly cared for by loving hands
and aching hearts, holds in its cold en-
brace the remains of once great life.
Then take they long repose,
Beneath the shelter of the deep green SOD;
Death but a brighter halo round thee
throws;
Thy fame, thy soul alike have spurned the
clod:
Rest thee in God.

n Divorce With a Sequel.
From the indianapolis Journal


An interesting sequel to divorce suit
comes from Noblesville. Several years
ago prominent hardware merchant Of
the place married an elegant and accom-
plished young lady of Westfield. 1t was
said that the match was opposed by the
friends of the young woman on account
of the groom's inclination to be reckless,
but. despite all antagonism, the marriage
was consumated The couple lived to-
gether for few years, but drink at last
spoiled the happy home, and supplanted
the bright hopes of the young wife with
the bitterness of financial incompetency.
The contrast added to the disposition of
the husband, became unbearable, and
proceedings for divorce were instituted
by the wife. For many months the salt
was in the courts, and the delay increased
the humiliation, until friends were about
to intercede and have the complaint with
drawn. The case was finally ended last
Saturday by the divorce being granted.
Mrs. G. resolved news of the verdict at a
late hour of the day, and at an early hour
Monday morning was informed that her
former husband had died suddenly and
Unexpectedly just about the hour the di-
vorce was granted. TWAS found that he

IT is somewhat amusing to witness the
gyrations of some of the Republican
papers that have been for more than a
year past abusing Mr.. Arthur Some of
them come out fat-footed and assert that
he is a statesman of extraordinary capacity
and good judgment, and will administer
the affairs of the government with rare
discrimination. Others, however, simply
content themselves with giving him good
advice as to his future course. 1t is prob
able that President Arthur will bear in
remembrance the slurs that have been
cast upon him, and will administer the
government according to his own ideas
The coming three years cannot be worse
than others we have experienced within
the past dozen years, and there is a good
prospect of betterment in the condition
of the people.

Ar0,sing With Your Surgeons

Though the ordinary practitioner has
it pretty much his own way with the
poor, the number of more or less educat-

the whip-hand. If he decides to

posed to cut both your legs off, or
do some such trifle,) you can, indeed, say
you will not submit to the operation: but
who would dispute with HIM about the
way of performing it, The physician
does not stand on such commanding
eminence of superiority, except in cases
where the patient is Frustrated, or nearly
so. He cannot see into your ''insides, {"
and the prejudice that you know more
about it than he is not unnatural. There
is your "idiosyncrasy;;" has he really

NEVER in the history of the world has
there been such sincere and universal
mourning over the death of man as was
manifested yesterday on the occasion of
the obsequies of President Garfield. In
every city, town and hamlet in America
the people manifested their sorrow in a
becoming manner. In Europe the de-
monstrations were scarcely less universal.
For the first time in the history of Great
Britain all public buildings were draped
in mourning for the death of foreign
petentate, and bells were tolled in all
parts of the kingdom. In France, Ger
many and Italy the same tokens of re-
spect were observed, and even as far off
as Russia there were official and popular
manifestations of sorrow.

Take Care of Your Eyes

The most serious trouble with readers
and writers, is, as might be predicted
from their peculiar work, weak eyes. We
find that engravers, watchmakers, and
all others who use their eyes constantly
in their work take extra care to preserve
them by getting the best possible light
by day, and using the best artificial light
at night. The great army of readers and
writer's are careless, and most of them
sooner or later pay the penalty by being
forced to give up night work entirely
some to give up reading, except at short
intervals, under the best conditions,
and now and then one loses the eye
sight entirely, aster it is too late
to take warning. Greek, German, short
hand, or any other character differing
from the plain Roman type, make a
double danger The custom is to laugh
at all warnings till pain or weakness
makes attention imperative, and then it
is often too late to avert the mischief.
Few comprehend the vast number we
call a million, but 1t takes million let
tiers to make fair-sized volume of five
hundred pages, forty lines to the page,
fifty letters to the line. A reader makes
an easy day of reading this, but his eyes
must 90 over million letters! We
can do no better service to readers and
writers than to call attention to this great
danger of failure to take the best of care,
which is none too good, of the eyes. Ev-
ery tyro knows that he should have the
best light for reading, should shun care
fully early dawn or twilight, should al
ways stop at the first signs of pain or
WEAKNESS, ETC. Most know that the glare
from plain, white surface is very try
ing, and that the eye is relieved by tint.
Recent experiments in Germany are
reported to indicate some yellow
ish tint as the easiest for the eyes.
Dark papers, inks that show little color
on first writing, faint lead-pencil marks
that can read only by straining the eyes,
are fruitful sources of mischief. So is
bad writing The bad paper, inks and
pencils most of our readers will have too
good sense to use. The intelligent public
Should so clearly show its disgust at the
fine type, solid paper, poor paper and
poor printing, which some publishers and
most periodicals, except the best, are
guilty of offering, that no publishers
would dare attempt the experiment a
second time
