profitable one in which the variety ac
tress ever engaged, Tor her companion
led her into a dry goods store, and with
out much began purchasing
such articles as he seemed to think she
needed. Fine hosiery and underwear,
a richly trimmed cloak and a handsome
lace collar were among the purchases
which the man from Montana made for
the object of his affections.
On the following day another walk
along the leading thoroughfare was
taken by the pair. The snow was fall
ing, and the generous miner took his
companion to a store and bought her a
gossamer cloak and a pair of rubbers.
AS they left the place lie requested the
woman to accompany him to the depot.
Arriving there the miner bestowed a
fond look upon her and said with a
pathetic smile:
You think I'm a funny Teller, now,
don't you? Well, now, I'll tell you
what I'll do. I've taken a fancy to YOU,
and if you'll marry he and 90 to Mon

To Young Men.

&A
George D.. Prentice once wrote: ITO
a young man away from home, friend
less and forlorn in a great city, the
hours of peril are those between sunset
and bedtime; for the moon and the stars
see more evil in a single hour than the
sun in his.whole days circuit. The poets
visions of evening are all composed to
tender and soothing images. 1t brings
the wanderer to his home, the child to
his mothers arms, the OK to his stall,
and the weary laborer to his rest. But
to the gentie-hearted youth who IS
thrown upon the rocks of the pltiiess
city, and stands homeless amid a thous-
and homes, the approach OF evening
brings with it an aching sense OF lone
liness and desolation which comes down
upon the spiritslike darkness upon the
earth. In this mood his best impulse be-
comes q snare to him; and he 10 LED as

Alaska News.

PORTLAND, February 5.-Advices
steamer say that the universal verdict
among the white residents is II that Com
mander Nerriman's action in shelling
an Indian village was the only proper
thing to be done and its effects are of a
most wholesome character. The Indians
acknowledge the justice of the punish
ment and do not show the least resent
ment. The report that the Indians are
suffering from want Of shelter or food is
utterly untrue. Most of the huts de-
stroyed have been rebuilt and no per-
sonal property was destroyed, as the In
dams had twenty-four hours notice to re-
move their effects.

Another Indian Raid Feared.

LoRDsBURG, n. NJ, February.-Mr.
BASS ~telegraphs from Ovens station, II
miles south of Clifton, that he saw fifty
Indians near that point this evening.
They appeared to be travelling from the
direction of Clifton and moving toward
Horseshoe Canon. The New Mexico
and Arizona telegraph line being cut be-
tween Clifton and Owens ranch makes
it impossible to say whether Clifton is
being raided or not. H. and F. Porter
telegraphs from York's ranch they saw
go Indians about II miles below York,s
to-day with so head of stock. The whole
ella valley is alarmed and settlers are
making preparations for a repetition of
last April. They are wholly unprotect-
ed. These are undoubtedly the same
Indians who have been committing dep
relations in Mexico.

thefe be a young man thus circum-
stanced within the sound of my voice,
let me say to him that books are the
friends of the friendless, and that a lib
rary is a home to the homeless. A taste
for reading will always carry you to con-
verse with men who will influence you
with their wisdom and charm YOU by
their wit, who will soothe you when
fretted, refresh you when weary, coun-
sci you when perplexed, and sympathize
with you al all times. Evil spirits in

bell, book and candle, and you want but
two OF these agents-the book and the

A Montana Lover.

A tall, broad-shouldered, g~ray-bearded
miner from Montana, while viewing the
sights about town, strolled into n of
the variety theaters on State street the
other evening, and took a seat near the
stage. During the performance he be
came deeply interested in one of a group
of scantily attired females who were dis
porting themselves on the stage. The
dark eyes and v%oluptuous form of the
siren completely captured the heart of
the rugged miner, and he lost no time
in gaining an introduction to the fair
e~nslaver. After feasting his eyes on her
manifold charms he made al engage
ment to meet her at rehearsal next day.
The miner was punctual in keeping his
appointment, and waited patiently until
the artistic had finished her rehearsal.
He then brusquely invited her to take a
walk, and she, nothing 10th, consented.
This promenade was probably the most

Mace Can Lie.

New YORK, Feb. 3.-When Jem Mace
was on the witness stand yesterday, be
declared that men OF the highest stand
ing We're taking boxing lessons and in
obliged in friendly sparring, and when
asked for an instance he replied, " Ros-
Gee Conkling is q very good boxer, and
is very proud OF his knowledge OF the
art. Some years ago he had $ little bout
with Senator Chandler, Of Michigan, in
which be came out the best man. The
next day Chandler introduced me to
Conkling at dinner. The day after, in
the evening, after a discussion about
boxing, Conkling induced me t, put on
the gloves with him. The Senator is a
good boxer, as have said, buthe quick
~ rolled on the floor and abandoned the
lesson in good humor.n This little tale,
though interesting, IS pronounced wholly
false, and Conkling has positively de-
clared that he never saw Mace in his
life, and therefore never boxed with him,
md that he never boxed with Senator
Chandler at any time.

Cathar1ne and ThurloW.

There is a little romance connected
with the marriage Of Thurlow Weed,
told by the veteran journalist himself.
"When Twas working in COoperstoWn,'
Mr.. Weed said, II and two other young
fellows were arrested for insulting some
girls while going home from meeting.
[ never was more innocent Of anything
in my life, but [ had no friends, and was
threatened with jail. Suddenly a man
whom [ did not know stepped forward
and gave bail for me, and a lawyer
whom / had barely seen offered to serve
me as counsel. My trial came on, and
the girls exonerated me from having
anything to do with it. A year or two
after this / fell in love with Catharine
Ostrander, of Cooperstown, and married
her, and a better wife no man ever had.
1t was ten years before | found out how
[ came to be defended. Meeting the
lawyer in Albany, I asked him. "Why,
said he, "it was Catharine Ostrander's
work" She had felt rather shy and had
not told me in all that time. But the
next year the lawyer was surprised by
being nominated and elected attorney
general of the state. Not altogether be-
cause he had interceded for me, he was
just the mar for the place. | very rare
ly had a man elected or appointed to Of
flee for reasons personal to myself"

case was docketed for trial in the criminal
court to-day, shot his wife through the
head about noon in the jury room of the
court, after which he sent a bullet into
his own brain. Presley n. Jones, attor-

deputy sheriff Walters, were in the
room at the same time. 1t is thought
Mrs. Parker furnished the weapon. She

self and to the President, The probabilities are
that the Commissioner knows quite as much
of the efficiency or inefiiciency of the several
officers as do the able editors who imagine
fairs of the government. If Mr.. Evans had
been a professional "reformer," those papers
which now criticise him would have Landed
him to the skies because he was going to be
"a man of his own mind" and all that, and
would have only those men about him who
would carry out his plans and purposes.

good sense of the country and be judged by
the results of the administration Of his office.

"THERE is broad ground between protec-
ton and free trade-much more than an
inch. 1t is the ground occupied by all per-
sons holding conservative views on the sub
ject of the tariff small number of
dreamers, theorists honest but impractical
bic men, striving for what they believe to be
right and for the best interest of the people,
cry out Down with the tariff, abolish all
custom-houses give us free trade with all the
world . On the other side there are
a set of narrow-minded and small-souled
manufacturers that cry out for high pro-
tective tariff, so high as to amount to virtual
prohibition. This class is not large, nor
very popular, but very INSCRIPTIONS and
very persistent. New Albany Ledger.
The Republican party has nothing TO do
with either of these classes. Believing in
the levying of reasonable protective tariff,
it has no fellowship with free-traders.
Neither does it encourage the very few who
would have a prohibitory tariff. But the
Journal does not agree with the Ledger.
There is not an inch of available ground be-
tween free trade and protection. AS Senator
Voorhees, has said and as the Journal has
long maintained ANY tariff that is laid
must protect to some extent" To the extent
that any tariff is laid it is in that degree pro-
tective, and, this being the case, we insist
that the protection shall be honest and intel
ligent and friendly. The difficulty with the
Ledger is that, being protective paper, it
finds itself allied to free-trade party, and
as means of getting out of the dilemma,
seeks to prove that there is ground between
shown repeatedly that there is not an inch
of available space there, and the Democratic
party will not find standing room between
the two policies as represented by the two
great political parties.

THE total beer brew of the United States
for the year ending May 1, so far as re-
ported, was 17,349, 424 barrels of thirty
zone gallons each, net increase over the
preceding year of 1888, s62 barrels, or an
increase of AL per cent. The official
figures show that the sales in Indiana in 1888
were 14,773 barrels less than in 1882. These
official figures also show that beer is not sold
in Arkansas, Florida, Maine or Vermont,
while only eight barrels were sold in Alabama
and thirty-one in North Carolina. The net
increase over 1875 is 8,965, 704 barrels, or
10609 per cent. in eight years, this increase
varying from per cent. in Massachusetts, to
20.27 per cent in Connecticut. More than
one-sixth of the entire product of the coun-
try is brewed in New York and vicinity,
Philadelphia ranking second and Milwaukee
third.

THIS is the season for testing farming ma
chinery. and, judging by the reports from
different parts of the country, the interest
manifested in the annual contests is height
ened from year to year. The capital, skill
and energy employed by the various leading
manufacturing establishments inures to the
benefit of the farmer as we'll as of the manu-
facturer America already has the best and
cheapest line of farm implements in the
world, but the yearly advancement is simply
wonderful The genius of an army of intel
ligent mechanics and machinists backed by
strong capital, is exerted to the utmost, from
harvest to harvest in constructing new and
improving the old. The competition of
rival factories is so sharp and the machines
generally of such excellent points that the
buyer can hardly be deceived or defrauded
There is no branch OF industry in the country
that has made and brought into service so
many useful and valuable inventions. We
note this fact with great pride, and call it to
the attention of those who think the eco
nomic laws OF the nation have been make
weight to industrial advancement.

THE removal of special agent cannot be
magnified into national issue. Indeed the
country would not take out its pocket
kerchief and weep if the report should prove
true that there is to be general overhauling
of the special-agent business in all the de-
partments. The sorrows of a removed gov
eminent official can scarcely be made the
theme of national mourning. The question
is, whether the motives for the removal were
honorable, and whether the new appointees
are good and worthy men. If they are, and
the interests of the government are sub
served by the change, that is the main
thing The answer can only be given by
time, and Commissioner Evans is entitled to
fair trial before he is condemned.

IT seems that Preacher Jenkins, who was
so quick on the trigger, and killed President
Borden, in Louisiana, was entirely mistaken
as to the cause which he imagined demanded
the exercise of mis- Spotless Prowess.f Miss
Butler says that the dead man never wronged
her; and BESIDES Mr.. Jenkins was in no wise
her defender had she needed one, she having
a father and two brothers to look out and
care for her honor. Jenkins was simply a
hot-blooded fool. who thought it incumbent
upon him to shoot man who, he imagined
had done all injury to young lady of his
acquaintance. 1t will be worth great deal
to society, in all respects, if Jenkins can be
sent to the penitentary for the term of his
natural life. II would he too much to hops
for that a jury could be found to hang him.
but if a start can be made by securing life
term for this particular bloody-handed fool
the next murderer may be sent to the gal
lows When one of these fellows shall be
hung human life will be worth more in those
States where Spotless Prowess now seems to
demand murder every now and then.

PEOPLE with common sense will stand by
Commissioner Evans. He took hold OF a
large and important bureau. He was per-
sonally unknown to most, if not all, of its
servants, and they were unknown to him.
II is not to be supposed that all the en-
ployes were absolutely perfect and infallible
or that, good as the service had been, it
might not possibly be improved. But, be
that as it may, Mr.. Evans is entitled to have
somebody in the bureau whom he knows
personally, and in whose judgment he can
implicitly confde. Mr.. Evans has removed
possibly three men out of the hundreds in
the revenue service, and appointed to their
places persons for whom he is willing to be
held responsible 1t is the Commissioner
who is responsible for the bureau, and if
the removals he makes are not simply dictated
by caprice or worse, he is entitled to mako
what changes he considers necessary to place
