The newspaper in the East, which is still
engaged in that practice, sells anywhere from
five to fifteen thousand copies daily, and bor-
rows money from monopolies to keep the
press going. while the modern paper with
the same clientage is dsposing of upward of
one hundred thousand COPIES and the owners
roll in wealth. But still there are plenty of
men who know the successful newspaper y

THIS paper will give way to none in its sup
port of the right of woman to enter any field of
labor which she may choose, but it must con-
tnue to insist that she shall not at once expect
the successful results from her efforts that are
achieved by the more skillful hands of man. A
lady living in Oswego. N. Y, lost sight of this
great principle recently, and her experience
should warn others against similar errors. This
woman had repeatedly asked her husband to cut
off a large limb from apple tree which grated
harshly against the house. After the prooras-
tlnating habit of man, he promised and promised
to do 50, but failed to act. Driven to despera-
ton the lady at last took matters, which in this
case meant a saw, into her own hands, climbed
into the tree by means of a step-adder, and pro-
ceeded to remove the branch herself. The saw
worked easily, and she was arranging In her
mind the sarcastic remarks she meant to greet
the cold man" with, when the limb was severed
and fell to the ground. Unfortunately, she had
done the saving between where she was seated
and the tree, consequently she fell also and was
nearly killed. Until she gets rid of arnica and
bandages this woman will believe that there is
work to which her sex is not adapted.

PRISONER named Randolph, under a life
sentence in the Connecticut penitentary, died
the other day after confinement of twenty
seven years His death recalls a curious story
of the dis covery of the crime for which he was
punished. Randolphs wife disappeared sud-
denly and no trace of her could be found. 1t
was known that the two were quarrelsome
when together, and the husband was arrested
on suspicion, but nothing could he found to i'm
plicate him, and he was discharged. Three
months later the missing wonans father had
dream in which she appeared to him as at q
certain spot near the house where she had
lived. After a few moments the vision faded
from his sight with cry of agony Being super
stituous, the old man was so impressed by tho
dream that he had the garden dug up. and at the
point indicated in the dream the remains of the
murdered woman were found. The husband
then confessed his guilt aud received sentence

a gentleman we'll and favorabIy
known about town, on retiring for
the night, feeling unwell and nervous
was very restless in his sleep, but
seemed to himself to be wide awake
and in full control of his senses. A
vision appeared in his dream show
ing him a large flaming number
commanding him to obtain it from
the lottery and then vanished. The
dream was so startling as to fully
awaken him, and although one who
never believed i l lotteries or upheld
them, yet try as he would he could
not shake off the vision or forget the
numbers which seemed to be burned
in his brain. Finally he called at
the office of the Commonwealth Dis
tributivn Co., and paying 81, asked
for ticket with the number of his
dream on il. Fortunately the num-
Der was uns"lfl and his licke given

We are in snsae doubt as to what
either the regular military or the
volunteers who are about to go out
after Indians are going to light if
they are to be restricted from going
into Mexico where the marauders
have undoubtedly hed. The present
treaty with Mexico STIMULATES that
troops shall not cross the line in pur-
suit of Indians after the trail is five
hours old. The treaty seems trifiing
in this respect, but it is nevertheless
an opening wedge which will un-
doubleday lead to other concessions
and in the meantime il is t. be hoped
that no trail will ever be found that
is more than five hours old.
