THE WEATHER
UiLdtorlf L0rsI.s

The impatience of the parents of the
young lady over the long and fruitless
visits of the chronic caller was pictured
in comic colors some years ago by funny
writer. 1t seems that it was midnight.
The young man had farewelled himself
out and Emeline had locked the door and
was untying her shoe when her mother
came down stairs with bedquilt around
her and said:
"Wanted to creep up stairs without
my hearing you, eh? Didn't think it was
an hour after midnight, did your
The girl made no reply, and the mother
continued:
'Did he propose this timer"
"Why, mother" exclaimed the daugh-
ter.
"1o 1ou can 'why mother all you want
to, but don't L know that he has been
coming here for the last YEAR, Don't
know that you've burned up at least four
tons of coal courting around herer"'
The girl got her shoes off, and the
mother stood in the stair door and asked:
"Emeline, have you got any grit3''
81 guess So"
s'1 guess you haven't. just wish that
fellow with false teeth and mole on his
chin would come sparkling me. Do you
know what would happen, Emeline?"
"No."
"Well, I'll tell you. He'd come to
time in sixty days or he'd get out of this
mansion like goat jumping for sun
flower Seeds"
And Emeline went to bed hugging this
thought in her bosom.
Occasionally such visits become so
burdensome that the young lady talks to
the young man herself. At least they
had such girl out in Colorado. She had
been receiving the attentions of a young
man for about year, but becoming i'm
patient at his failure to bring matters to
q crisis, she resolved to ascertain his in
tentions. When he next called she took
him gently by the ear, led him to seat,
and said: ifca
"Nobby, you've been foolin' round
this claim for mighty near a year, an
hey never yit shot off your mouth on the
marryin biz. I've cottoned to you on the

LOUISVILLE, Aug. 12.-At public meeting
of merchants and manufacturers held at the
board of trade room, it was determined to
celebrate, on the 18th of September, the Open
ing OF the Chicago & Alton, and Southwestern
81 st. Louis Air Line railroads. 1t was agreed
that this should be done by an industrial
street pageant, by the exhibition of Louisville
fair association and Louisville exposition, by
decorating houses for the entire week from
the 18th to the 18th prox and by general
illumination of all houses on the night of the
18th. The industrial procession referred to
mercantile interests on floats or wagons,
which will be assigned to positions by COM
mittee and designated in position by m:mbers
as application is made. 1t is presumed that
every firm and corporation will join in the
undertaking and help to make a successful
celebration.

The London Standard says that the domin.
ant influences of the day are uniformly hostile
to copious, and not too friendly to moderate,
drinking. There are few English refreshment
rooms in places of public resort where milk
is not largely in demand. The amount oil
wine drunk at dinner parties Is much smaller
than of yore. Many drink none, and Others
largely dilute it. This arises from the action
of the teetotal societies, whose SOLDERING in.
luencss have spread upward.
The Albany Journal says, "danger is un-
doubtedly enfolded in the principle of univer-
sal suffrage, but the danger is less in the prin-
cirle itself than in the moral perversity Of
those whether native or foreign born) who,
either from ignorance or cupidity, are ready
to sell their franchise to the highest bidder.
II, therefore, movement shall ever be inau.
gurated to abridge the franchise, it will be
based upon something more substantial and
just than the nativity Of those by whom the
franchise is prostituted and debauched."
The Boston Herald has the following ques-
tions and suggestions, which many persons
might seriously reflect upon At this season of
the year. A Christian young man who went
on Sunday excursion complains that be lost
his money. Was that all he lost? Did he not
lose the approval of his conscience? Did he
not miss the privilege Of public worship?
Did he not find on his return that, instead of
the gentle rest of his usual Sabbath, he had
fatigue and depression? The Sunday excur.
sion is very expensive. The ticket is cheap,
bat the actual outlay is very heavy.

4 STOLEN GIRL.
Several months ago pool
peasant sent her daughter, a
young girl, very plain, almost deformed,
and in no way attractive, to the store for
some red earth. The child has never re-
turned. This occurred in small village
on the river Thless, that terrible river
which causes so much loss and so man V
deaths by inundation. 1t seems that the
floors in Hungarian peasants houses are
made of light yellow cement, and to
make them more attractive the peasants
usually on Saturday evening put a fresh
border all around each room of bright
red, made of q mixture Of red earth and
water. The child went with her large
colored handkerchief for the earth. as
her mother needed it for that evening.
and she is still waiting. Search was af
once commenced but no clue was found.
However, in few days Jew called on,
the poor woman and offered her $500 II
she would take child he had with him
and declare it to be the missing one. She
refused. News came first from one part
of the country, then from another, to the
effect that achild answering the descrip-
tiOn was at such place. The govern
ment took up the subject and in each case
sent detectives to see if it were really the
child. Many were brought to the poor
mother, but she each time said it is not
mine. Time went on. Suspicious began
to be whispered about, but each time
something seemed to be pointing towards
a solving of the mystery. News would
come from some remote region that either
the child was found or her clothing, and
more time was used in finding this news
to be as false as ali that had preceded
it. In the meantime two other
Jews called and offered large sums to the
mother if she would select child out of
several presented and call it hers. At
last body was found tied to a raft in the
Thiess, some twelve miles below the viii
lage. The body was dressed in the
clothes the girl wore when she left home
even the handkerchief stained with the
red earth was tied around her arm-but
the body proved to be that of prostitute
who died of consumption. The hair had
been shaved and the body badly bruised
and ill-treated in the hopes of putting it
beyond recognition, but her grave was
found empty and such proofs gwen that
could not be doubted. Then came the
question, if those were the clothes-and

Judge Deady's instruction TO the grand
Jury of the United States Circuit Court, at
Portland. Oregon, on Tuesday last, that it
was their duty to indict offenders against
the law in regard to political assessments,
will advance the cause Of the friends Of a
pure civil service one step further. 1t is
held in some quarters that the right OF the
candidate to part OF the wages Of the office
holder is established and sanctioned by the
very nature of our democratic institutions.
Judge Dcady's instruction is fatal TO this
theory. lie is by no means OF opinion that
the members OF political party who hap
pen 10 be oflice-hOidcrs are under Obliga-

dates belonging to the same party. lie

their dong so. Whether he would al-
prove a law putting a premium on Office

State to pay the election expenses OF per-
