ocean steamer, looking back on th'
great city of San Francisco, fading
away in the distance he was y0unl
man, not more than thirty.ilve, at thu
most, but over his clear-cut features
there rcigncd an expression better be-
fitting one Of twice that age, one o.
utter sadness and WEAKNESS Of life.
The mammoth steamer glided stead,
lily onward over the sparkling waters
clear and beautiful in the sunlight, theil
boisterous play tossing the great mass
of iron and wood up and down, as
though it had been but straw.
Pretty rough. Mr.. Wallace, said
CHEEKY voice behind our friend, 'at
least the passengers think so l believe
there is only one beside yourself, q
lady, who has not retired in disgust to
pay Father Neptune tribute. All and
here she comes to enjoy this splendid
breeze; you two brave ones should
know each other, especially as you
have such Il long voyage to make in
company-Mrs. Chester allow me to
present to you our new minister to
Japan, Mr.. Robert Wallace. must
ask you to excuse me now, you can en-
tertain each other.
And then the busy Captain hurried
away never stopping to notice the
strange conduct of the two whom he
had thus brought together.
The lady, scarcely more than girl
in years, turned very pale, and sank
heavily into chair, like one stricken
by sudden blow, her dark eyes fixed
intently upon that other white, slim
face looking down upon her.
There was a silence lasting several
moments, during which each seemed
10th to be the first to speak ; at length
Robert Wallace advanced impulsively
until he stood before the lady just in
troduced to him as Mrs. Chester.
'Clarice he said, huskily, He
called you Mrs. Chester! How is that ?
Can it be your faithless heart after dis
carding the one man you had sworn to
wait patiently for, and marrying his
richer rival, has SO quickly recovered
from the shock Of your husbands
death, as to take another in his place
already!'
He spoke wildly, rapidly, and she
gazed at him in silence with dilating
eyes, the look of pain and terror on
her sweet face changing as he went on,
into one of bewilderment.
answer me?' he exclaimed roughly,
Il had hoped to never more look on
your face, but now, that we have met,
l would like to know the process by
which you arrived at the point of jilting
the man who had left you so hopefully,
to win the fortune you were to share,
and marrying the man You had always
professed to despise Martin Boyd was
rich that is your answer, is it not?'
He paused, his hands clinched, his
chest heaving.
Il do not understand you, Rob-Mr.
Wallace she faltered You speak as
if l had married Mr.. Boyd
'Dare you deny it!' he exclaimed
bitterly.
Il certainly do deny it, as it is not
true
He laughed, wild, bitter laugh, as
he drew from his wallet bit of news
paper crumpled and worn, and placed
it in her hands.

The ACNE OF A DELIcACY.-A
gentleman travelling. in Virginia last
summer had occasion to take stage
ride in order to visit the natural bridge.
Riding on the seat with the driver he
fell into conversation with him, and
found that he was an old hunter, who
was veteran in killing deer, bears and
smaller game. Passing stream the
traveller inquired if it contained fish.
Lots on 'em, was the reply.
what kind?'
Mostly trout said the driver. All
these mountain streams are full of
trout
They must be fine eating was the
next remark.

The government il an Oligarchy Of
rich mon - for even whom We find man
Of.mOderate means in Office the chances
are ten to ono that he owes his election to
rich men, and that in Whatsoever he does
he will recognize, 30 far a. his creditors
demand, tho indebtedness thus created.
The evil is great, widespread and
increasing. 1t is not c0nfinod to the
federal elections, but has become
common to all elections. IL candi-
date for governor is to be soleCted-in
either party-the first question ID, "Can

to spend or no monied friends to spend il
for him, and thereby establish lien IN
him, he is set aside, no matter what. his
qualifications may be, or even what his
availability in . partisan sense may be.
Lacking money, he has, in fact, neither
qualifications nor ability. It is the same
thing on smaller scale in the smaller
Offices. The actual candidate almost in
variably represents a mODied man, or
clique, and votes in open or secret Obcdi-
ence to his superior. That all this is
very bad need scarcely be said. It
is demOralizing, in the first place, to have
the nominal servants Of the public the
real servants of small faction. for the
rich are small faction, compared with
tho poor, and the men whose means are
too moderate to permit Of their indulgence
in the luxury of running for Office. The
open purchase of Office adds to the de-
moralization by destroying public con
fidence in the integrity, Of the Office
holders. Moreover, it is positive evil to
have the government in the hands
of the rich. It would be if they attained
control without resort to corrupt means.
II ID 80 because tho interests of the rich,
a. rule, arc opposed to those Of ftho poor;
and the poor are iu the vast majority. We
do not mean by this that there is any nec-
essary antsgOnism between capital and Ia
Dor, because there is none. Each il neoes-
sary to the other, and there can be DO true
prosperity for either unless it Is shared by
tho other. But if capital has full control
of tho government, il capital makes and
administers the laws, the government and
the laws will inevitably be in the interests
of capital, as capital understands those
interests, without any reference to labOr's
understanding of those interests, Or of its
own. Such is really the state Of affairs
to-day in the national government and
most of state and municipal governments.
MODOpOlies of all kinds arc protected and
strengthened, and in return for their pro-
lection and strengthening they furnish the
means to maintain their servants in power.

THE USE OF AMMONIA IN BAlklNl
... POWDBR0. a.tf .

It's Importance ss . Culinary Agent.
Scientific American. -
Tho recent discoveries in science and
chemistry are fast revolutionizing Our
daily domestic economies. Old methods
are giving way to the light Of modern in.
vestigation, and the habits and methods
OF our fathers and mothers arc stepping
down and out, to be succeeded by the new
ideas with marvellous rspidity. In no
department of science, however, have more
rapid strides been made than in its rela-
tions to tho preparation and preservation
of human food. Scientists. having dis
covered how to traverse space, furnish
heat, and beat time itself, by the applica.
ton of natural forces, aud to do hun.
dred other things promOtive Of the COM
fort and happiness Of human kind, are
naturally turning their attention to the
development Of other agencies and powers
that shall add to the years during which
man may enjoy the blessings set before
him.
Among the recent discoveries in this di-
rectiOn, none is more important than tho
uses to which common ammonia can be
properly put rs a leavening agent, and
which Indicates that this familiar salt is
hereafter to perform an active part in the
preparation of our daily food.
The carbonate Of ammonia is an exceed
IDgIy volatile substance. Place q small
portion Of it upon knife and hold over
flame, and it will almost Immediately be
entirely developed into gas asd pass
OIL into tho air. The gas thus formed is .
simple compensation Of nitrogen and hydro
gen. No residue is left from the ammonia.
ihis gives it its superiority as leaven-
ing power over soda and cream Of tartar
when used alone, and has induced
its use AZ supplement to these articles.
A small quntity of ammonia in the dough
is effective in producing bread that will be
lighter. swectcr, and more wholesome
than that risen by any other leavening
agent. When il is acted upon by the
heat of baking the Ieavening gas that
raises the dough is liberated. In this act
it uses itself up, as it were (; the ammonia
IL entirely diGused, leaving no trace Of
residum whatever. Tho light, fiuffy,
haky appearance, 70 desirable in biscuits,
etc., and SO sought after by professional
cooks, is said to be impaired to them only
by the use of this agent. ''.' 80
The bakers and baking powder manu.
tacturers producing tho finest goods have
been quick to avail themselves of the use
ful discovery, and the handsOmest and
best bread and cake are now largely risen
by the aid Of ammonia. combined, of
course, with other leavening material.
Ammonia is one of the best known
products Of the laboratory. II, as seems
to 10 Justly claimed for it, the application
0f iSs properties to the purposes of cooking
results in giving us lighter and more
wholesome bread, biscuit and cake, it will
prove boon to dyspeptic humanity, and
willspeedily force itself into general use
in the new field to which science has
assigned it.

Louis is apparently ~ sensible as the
average person, but that he lsersistently
refuses TO walk. He was carried to his
quarters upon q stretcher. When all the
males had been gotten out Of tho car, the
