without compromising their position in regard

Poker in the Legislature.

In the years gone by certain Repre-
sentative in our State Legislature was
supposed to have been "seen" ON a
certain bill, but as he kept his own
counsel no one could get any proofs
against HIM. He had been elected as
an honest, upright man, and when his
constituents heard the rumors against
his integrity they were amazed. A
delegate was appointed to go down to
Lansing and hear his side of the story,
and when this man returned home he
was invited to make known his re-
searches before an open meeting.
"My friends,' he began, 81 went to
Lansing with the determination to sift
the matter to the bottom. found that
s. was living high and dressing like
a lord"
A groan went through the meeting
and men shook their heads in solemn
way.
''He sports gold watch and cane"
continued the delegate, "and he was
talking of buying $500 horse to bring
home with him. You remember he
went away from here poor man.
"Then he sold his voter' shouted
one of the yeomen.
81 confess it looked that way to me
at first, replied the delegate, g but
when l came to tackle him personally
he explained everything as clear as day.
He had not sold his vote. He had not
forgotten that an honest constituency
was behind him and no money could
have bribed his conscience. No, my
friends, there is no stain on his reputa-
tion.n
Then how did he get his money!"
asked three or four at once.
well, l don't know as can explain
it as well as he did, and Pm. sorry
didn't write it down. 1t seems that the
members don't have anything to do
evenings. and instead of reading novels
or attending the wicked theater they
gather in little crowds around the table
and the one who has four of kind of
something or other rakes in some
thing or other called the pot. I don't
know where the money comes in, but
its somehow or other, and some how or
other our esteemed Representative al
ways has more of kind than any one
else. This is as near as can remember
and suggest vote of continued con-
fidence in our member until he himself
returns to explain what the kinds are
and what the pot has to do with it."--

inc this little patch of ground before
she rot sick. l used to expect to see
her nearly every time | passed in the
morning Just as regularly as ! expected
to see the house itself standing there.
Sometimes she was digging around the
vines and shrubs and sometimes
carving basketfuls of earth, or maybe
she would be working with her bees up
there in the hives under the trees, os
making new beds for her flowers. or
trimming off the grass with her sickle.
| used often to tell her it was too hard
work for her to be bending over that
way to cut the grass, but she never
seemed to mind it particularly; sup
pose it was just her energy and deter
mination to have things complete that
kept her up. Yes, you've got nice
place, Birney. 1t don't look much as
it did when you moved here. remem-
Der | used to think it would take a good
deal of money to fix it up and make it
salabIe, but here your wife's just gone
ahead and, without any expense, has
made it blossom as rose, and to-day it
would bring double as much as you paid
for it. / tell you, neighbor Birney, just
these little improvements that cost only
labor and care. are the best investments
a man can make, and the kind that
adds to the value of property more than
costly buildings. I'd rather have your
little home with its cheerful porch.

bald-looking house over there with its
mansard roof and colored glass, and net
a vine or q flower to be seen, and weess
as high as a mans waist. If they had
your improvements, it would be the
most desirable place in this part of the
country, but they've lived there seven
years, and so far as l can see, they
havn't much else but mustard stocks
and burdock to show for it."
Every word that tn farmer spoke in
eulogy of his property was stab to the
conscience-smitten Birney, for he real
lied, what he had never done before,
that to his stricken, suffering wife he
was indebted for it all, and as he
watched the retreating figure of Farmer
Doyle as he rode away, he made a new
resolution that if poor Kate was spared
to him he would endeavor in future not
to add to, but to save her every step he
could. Let us hope that he kept his
resolution. Country Gentleman.

b" TILL DEATH US PART"

I'VE have received permission, says the Lon
don Spectator, to print the folio wing beautiful
lines by the late Dean of Westminster, which
can hardly, we think, be read without, to some
extent, alleviating the pain which attends SC
great a loss:]
It'll Death us part"
So speaks the heart,
When each to each repeats the words of doom
Thro' blessing and thro' curse,
For better and for worse,
We will be one, till that dread hour shall come.
Life, with its myriad grasp,
Our yearning souls shall clasp,
BY ceaseless love, and still expectant wonder;
In bonds that shall endure,
Indissolubly sure,
Till God in death shall part our paths asunder.
Till death us join,
o, voice yet more divine!
That TO the broken heart breathes hope SUBJ
lime;
Thro' lonely hours
And shattered powers
We still are one, despite of change and time.
Death with his healing hand
Shall once more knit the band
Which needs but that one link which acne may
sever:
Till thro the Only Good,
Heard, felt and understood,
Our life in God shall make us one forever.

One of the Tracks Of an Avalanche.

Lee Rainey, one of the oldest and
best known professional prospectors in
this part of the country, has just re-
turned from a trip to the head of the
Eagle River, above Breckenridge. His
journey was replete with exciting Incl
dents, and none more interesting and
thrilling than that he passed through on
the divide above Middle Park, on or
near Park View Mountain. He had
been for some ten days prospecting in
this little-known portion of the State,
and succeeded in discovering some very
fine veins of decomposed quartz, rich
in free gold. He staked off several of
the claims that seemed to him especially
valuable, and pushed his Investigations
up several of the smaller creeks in hopes
of finding placer diggings. In this he
was disappointed, and started across
spur of the range to returnto the fertile
and level Middle Park. On the south.
ern side his route lay down so steep
and PERCEPTIONS an incline that several
times he meditated turning around and
going back, but finally decided to push
OH. In one place the mountain side de.
scended in almost smooth plane some
500 yards wide, and apparently the
water course of some dried up stream.
In this he descended, but when about
midway down happened to look around
and witnessed a spectacle that made his
blood run cold and every limb stiffen
with terror. High up above, nearly at
the summit, a gigantic mass ofrock had
become detached and started on ter
rife descent toward the valley. With
every bound it gathered a mass of dirt,
smaller boulders and debris, and from
one mass OF granite it became, in the
twinkling of an eye, hundred, and
then vast avalanche sweeping down
the natural channel. Recovering HIM
self on the instant, and realizing his
dreadful peril, Rainey saw that his only
chance for life lay in his getting out OF
the track before the avalanche reached
him, and darted toward the nearest
side. There was but an instant of time,
and, although he seemed for the instant
given wings, he despaired of ever reach
ing place of safety. In second he
reached the side of the channel, clam
bering frantically up ragged heap OF
rocks. A pinone shrub was Just above,
and jseizing it in a desperate clutch he
dragged himself up the side. Small
boulders were already flying down be-
low him, the ground trembled and the
gigantic rocks shook to their foundation,
hurting him off his feet. With roar
that reverberated to the heavens, the
avalanche swept past. 1t was wild,
strange sight-one that filled the pros
pector with awe as he lay prone on the
ground, scarcely daring to breathe. For
an instant the channel was filed with a
rushing river, but river of stone and
earth, roaring, Kissing and surging like
living water, Huge rocks, masses of
earth and great pine trees would rise to
the surface and then disappear again
in the surging torrent. The mote that
poor humanity would have been in such
a stream the miner could well realize,
and it is needless to say that in the re.
mainder of the trip he avoided the
channel, and preferred a rough scramble
over the rocks to the mourning of any
such risk again. -LeGdUille Courier.

In a certain aristocratic Galveston
family there is a young lady, and she
has a beau, and the presumption is he
IS not particularly bashful when he and
the apple barrel of his affection are
alone, or think they are. What strength
ened this view of the case is the fact
that the lady has small brother named
Tommy, and the other night there was
a tea-party at the family mansion and
the supper table was very much crowd
ed; SO much so that Tommy's youngest
sister was crowded up very close to. him,
whereupon he made the remark out
loud: MAMMA, sis trowds me so close

A Washington dispatch to the Hart
many graphic public sketches of the
Inauguration ball, bu: in none of them
have l noticed anything but a general
reference to the presence of colored
people. There were in all fifteen col
ored persons present, among them ex-
Senator Bruce, Ex-Governor and
would be Senator Pinchback, Robert
Elliott, once Il member of the House
from Louisiana, Robert Harlan, of
Cincinnati, who follows running
racing meetings for living, and is
known to all hOrsemen, and three or
four other colored men who are less
known, employees of the Government
in this city. Each was accompanied
by his lady friends. AS it appeared to
them that they were not being
treated as well as they should be, they
formed a little party OF their own and
made up set for the first dance, n
lancers, about twenty feet from where
the Presidential set would have danced
and Mr.. Garfield consented to take
part. There they remained all the
evening, taking part in every square
dance that was on the programme.
Some of the younger of the party-all
of whom were mulattoes except FL
liott and his wife and one little black
barber named Ellsworth, who works in
one of the hotels here-es5ayed to
dance the racquet, but somehow they
did not seem to grab the notion and
could not make a success of 1t. Pinch
back busted himself escorting his wife
around. She is nearly white, and,
like Mrs. Bruce, is remarkably fine
looking woman. Both are well edu.
Gated and have an intense weak ness
for diamonds, as does Pinchback, who
wore a $1,000 spark in his shirt
'front.'
