 The latter sprang up in a rage with: "What the devil do you mean by pouring water down ny neck! !"
 "I poured no water down your neck, sir. I deny that I poured any water down your neck '" s.--: ''It could have come from nowhere else. I'll bet you $lO that can prove it by every man in the room."

A GLIMPSE INTO FUTURITY.--lt IS 19O3
 The twenty years sthats have gust passed into history, have been uneventful ones.
 Congress has met, drawn the treasury dry and adjourned. Ohio has retained her proud distinction of being the most avail able state from which to draw presidential Humber. s Tifden is still looming up as the next presidential candidat on the demo- cratic ticket. Blaine's presidential ightn- ing rod is disconnected and hangs loosely
 from the pinnacle of fame, and rattles noisily in every political gale. It is an
 unusually busy day in Washington. There
 is hurry and hustle upon the streets that
 indicate something outside the dull rou- I tine of daily life. Gayly uniformed off cials are moving about with countenances
 indicative of minds burdened with some
 thing of importance. Carriage after car tfiagef rolls upsto the departme mentsof justice,
 and after depositing their loads of minis
 ters, senators and ambassadors, they are l driven away as though they did not expect l to be needed for some time. Stopping an
 officer as he comes up the steps, we in

 citement. Why. do men. crowd around !: I What new danger threatens? Speak, tell

NeW BI0OmneId, Mlss., Jan. Y ISSU.
 wish to say to you that have been suffer ing for the last five years with severe itch- ing all over. I have heard of Hop Bitters and have tried it. have used up four bot ties, and it has done me more good than all the doctors and medicines that they could use on or with me. I am old and poor but feel to bless you for such relief by your medi- cine and from torment of the doctors. I have had fifteen doctors at me. One gave me seven ounces of solution of arsenic another took four quarts of blood from me. All they could tell was that it was skin sickness. Now, after these four bottles of your medicine, my skin is we'll, clean and smooth as ever.

Young men of education are too apt to look upon politics as dirty business, kind of wrangle for booty i'll which the burliest or most interruptions wins. This is true in measure and "a pity 'tis true" It has been true altogether too long, and it is high time young men of culture tried, with moral earnestness, to back them to infuse little more of their own spirit into these contests. Participation in politics with sincere determination to live up to .one's mental conviction is solemn duty, albeit sometimes disagreeable one.

s DANA ON NEW YORK JoURNALIsM.-Mr. Charles A. Dana has been giving his views on New York city journalism. He says a great improvement is noticeable Better talent is now employed. "A competent
 writer of leaders will be paid from $1OO to $150 per week, and no man fit to supervise | them and perform the functions of editor
 in-chief can be had for less than $15O to
 $20O per week. The reporters are of two
 classes. Those of the regular staff are
 paid by the week at rates varying from $3O
 to $6O. These perform not only the rou-
 tine duties of reporting, but are always | prepared to be sent off upon special ser vice, in which case their railroad fares, car riage hire, hotel bills and other expenses
 are paid by the office. Then there are number of reporters who are attached to each paper who are paid according to the
 work they perform and without having any prescribed functions, and should heein readiness to do whatever may be necessa

Of these two classes of reporters first-rate paper must employ about fifty.a In Washington each news paper has need of regular correspondents of reporters, and of occasional contribu- tors, and they differ as to the respective numbers of these two classes In Albany each New York paper must have its regu- lar staff devoted to this service.

Detroit Free Press: Whalebone How ker arose in the interests of harmony. He had lately read no less than, three different predictions as to when the world was com ing to an end, and each one had date of it's own. While all were made in the in. terest of the white folks, the six million colored people in this country were more or less interested. They did not propose to hang around here after the world had come to an end and all the white folks had begged out. He wanted the club to de, eide upon and set an official date, or to call meeting of the prophets and have them agree upon some particular day next fall after the melon season was over and everybody was behind on his house rent, The subject was referred to the committee on fisheries, with instructions to bring in aspecific date most convenient to all.
