CHAPTER TX.


Six months had passed since that
fearful night, when the family are
joyfully surprised by the return of
John from his distant home.
'sIs mother alive?" was his first
salutation, before he alighted from
his horse.
elbow did you hear ?" was asked
him.
"You have not forgotten the Shaws?
They live in the same town that do.
5 They have picked UP little. l called
there one day, and Mrs. Shaw told
me that she had heard that the house
was broken into and robbed, and
mother was shot, and could not live.
She would not tell how she got her
information, but said it was reliable.
Of course Harry and could not be
easy till we knew about it. When
reached Springfield, / heard the story
again, with particulars"
1t was glad meeting between John
and his mother, and she listened to
his account of his new home and
work with untiring interest.
Sand Harry" she asked.
sob Harry is doing splendidly !
Just as much as he can do There
is no other physician within twenty
miles. He has another horse, and
we live together. 1t has been very
pleasant for us, and it does not seem
as if it had been three years since we
left home. Time flies fast
"The time has seemed long to me,

the rest of them. And you know

deferred now two months on my ac-
count"
''Do you know, mother, that Alice
Sunderland is going back 10 Darien
with me when return? Harry is
soon to be married, too; and / hear
the same of Joe. William tells me
he is going to have the Shaw farm"
''Not all of it. 1t is larger than
Thomas's, SO your father is going to
take off fifty acres and join on the
Burnap place for him. 1t will make
the farms of size, or nearly so."

Peterson's Magazine for October is
unusually brilliant, if we can say that
of magazine that is always excep-
tionally good. 1t has two colored
patterns, specially with it, no other
lady's book giving them at ALL very
fine steel engraving, "The Woodland
Bath )" beautifully colored steel
fashion-plate, with the latest styles,
among others, of wedding dresses.
There are, besides, some fifty wood
engravings of fashions, patterns in
embroidery, etc. The stories, as al
ways in Peterson, are all original and
all first rate. We note particularly
"Nan's Masquerade" by the author
"The Second Life.' But the arti-
Gle of the number, because so appro.
pirate just now, when everybody is
talking of Egypt, is one on "Cairo
and the Khedive's Harem," illustrat-
ed with numerous spirited engravings.
No magazine so completely
fulflls all the qualifications for la
dy's book; and that is the reason,
doubtless, why Peterson has had such
long and enduring popularity. The
low nrice IF this monthly is another
thing to consider. 1t is but two dol
lars year, much less than is asked
for any other of equal merit. There
is nothing "catch penny" about it.
To clubs the terms are still lower.
Now is the time to get up clubs for
1883. Specimens are sent, gratis,
for this purpose. Address, Chas. ].

Rapid steps advanced from the

The Press intimates that all the
Republican papers of the county
denounced the river and harbor bill
as steal. How that may apply to
the other Republican papers we do
not know, but it certainly misses fire
as far as The TINES is concerned.
After careful searching of our files
we do not find any sufficient ground
for the "opinion" of the Press. But
why do not our Democratic exchanges
look at home, why not denounce the
80 or 90 Democrats who voted for
this measure, why not denounce the
late Democratic convention of Indi-
ana for its action in endorsing Sena-
tor Voorhees, for voting for this same
bill ? "First pluck out the mote" etc.

The Elections.

In Ohio we are whipped. There
is no Disgusting the fact. However
we lost the State on local issue-an
issue that will not enter into the
Presidential campaign. General
Butler says that "this the Democratic
swing of the pendulum which will
. 60 the other way in two years." and
we think he is about right. Ohio
periodically once in four years goes
Democratic. But the result is not as
at first reported. The Democratic
majority is only 1900 and We have
8 Congressman instead of 4.
In West Virginia we have won,
and won decisive victory. In the
the present Congress the Democrats
have all three members, but in the
next the Republicans will have two
members. Here there were no local
issues to detract votes from the Re-
publicans and the contest was fought
on the great national questions that
divide the two parties. While our
Democratic contemporaries are howl
ing themselves hoarse over their VIC
tory in Ohio, they forget the result
in West Virginia, Oregon, Vermont
and Maine. In those states they
have lost two Governors, 8 Congress
men and a.U. S. Senator.

Protection to Laboring Men.

There is no one class of individ-
uals more interested in the adjust
ment of the great questions now en-
gaging the attention of the "Tariff
Commission, than the laborers of
America. Should any one great in
dustry be so crippled by any change
in the tariff laws as to practically
cause its extinction, the laboring
men would be first to feel keenly the
results. "The laborer" says Senator
Frye in a recent speech, "must have
good food, enough of it for himself
and family, good clothing, school
houses for his children, comforts for
homes, and fair chance to improve
his condition" Senator Hoar said
to the late Republican State conven-
ton in Massachusetts, that cit is a Sc
rious thing to close Massachusetts,
factory, or to destroy or permanently
cripple Massachusetts industry. The
capital employed, considered merely
source of profit to its owner, is
surely worthy of the fostering care
of the Legislation. But that, vast as
it is, is of trifling importance in com.
parison with the loss of the wages of
the workingmen."

Politics makes strange bed fellows.
Down at Flint is man named Be-
COLE, who has "bar'l" and some
political ambition. He is a prohi-
bitionist and wears the red ribbon, a
note giver to the State Temperance
Alliance, and subscriber for the
Prohibition Lever. His nearest neigh
Dor is Ed. B. Mcintyre, the leading
whiskey seller in Flint, President of
the Genesee County Liquor Dealers
Association, Chairman of the Demo-
cratic County Committee, &c. Be-
COLE is running as a candidate for
Governor, and was endorsed by the
State Temperance Alliance. At the
only political meeting held in Flint,
in Begole's interest, Ed. Mcintyre
presided, endorsed Begole as the
candidate of the Liquor League and
Democrats and introduced Hon. w.
B. Wells, of Detroit, who made q
strong anti-temperance Democratic
speech. The Detroit Lever, the pro.
hibition organ of Michigan is sup
porting Begole just as heartily as Ed.
Mcintyre and the Democrats because
he is strict temperance man and
prohibitionist. Now who is being
fooled, the Lever and the State Tenn
perance Alliance, or Ed. Mcintyre
and the liquor dealers. 1t don't mat
ter much perhaps, as there is no dan
ger of Begole ever being Governor,
but still it does look as if there was
a fraud being practiced upon some
body.-Saginaw Herald.

MANS FIDELITY.

ASH said goodbye at the station
In. little country town,
And kissed away the tear drops
That trickled sadly down;
And she looked at me so sweetly,
And said, "You will not forget
swore that I'd be faithful,
And called her my little pet.
Then the train bore me back to the city,
To busily toll to day;
There was scarcely time to remember
My cherub so far away;
But when the DAYS work was ended,
And sat in silence alone,
Then l thought of the little daisy
i. should some day claim for my own.
Three nights bore up bravely,
For thought of the time to come;
Three nights ] tried to be cheerful,
But was only silent and g}um;
And then, upon the fourth evening,
gave my mustache twirl,
And put on my nobbiest necktie
Anb-called on another girl.
