An Aged Christian.
At evening time it shall be light.

AT evening time it shall be light.
Oltentlmes we look with torebod-
ing TO the time of old age, forepetful
that at eyentide it shall be light. To
many saints old age is the choicest
seasons in their lives. A balaier air
Ians the mariners cheek as he nears
the shore of immortality fewer
waves ruffie the sea quiet reigns,
deep, still, and solemn. From the
altar of age the flashes of the fire of
youth are gone, but the flame of more
earnest feeling remains.
The pilgrims have reached the land
OF Beulah, that happy country whose
days are as the days of heaven upon
earth. Angles visit it, celestial gales
blow over it, flowers of paradise grow
in it, and the air is filled with seraph-
lc music. Some dwell here for years,
and others come to it but a few hours
before their departure but it is an
Eden on earth. We may well long
for the time when we shall recline in
Its shady groves, and be satisfied
with hope until the time of fruition
comes.
The setting sun seems larger than
when aloft in the sky. and a splendor
OF glory tinges all the clouds which
surround all his going down. Pain
breaks not the sweet calm of the twi-
light of age, for strength made per-
feet in weakness bears up with pa
tlence under it all. Ripe fruits of
choice experience are gathered as the
rare repast of life's evening. and the
soul prepares itself for rest.
The Lords people shall also enjoy
light in the hour of death. Unbelief
laments, the shadows fall, the night
is coming, existence is ending. All!
no, crieth Faith, the night is far
spent, the day is at hand. Light is
come, the light of innrnortality, the
light of Fathers countenance.
Gather up thy feet in the bed /; see
the waiting bands ofspirits. Angels
watt thee away. Farewell, beloved
one, thou art gone. thou wavest thy
hand. All! now it is light. The
pearly gates arc open, the golden
streets shine in the jasper light. We
cover our eyes, but thou beholdest the
unseen; adieu, brother, thou hast
light at eventide, such as we have
not yet.
y, unexpected day, begin;
Dawn on these realms OF woe and sin!
Fain would we tread the appointed road
And sleep in death, and wake with God.

True Courage.

The bravest boys are not always
those who are ready to fight. Here
is the story of one who showed the
right spirit when provoked by his
comrades;
A poor boy was attending school
one day with a large patch on the
knee of his trousers. One of his
schoolmates made fun of him for this,
and called him "Old Patch"
"Why don't you fight him." cried
one of the boys. "I'd give it 10 him
if he called me So"
"Oh," said the boy, "you don't sup
pose Pm ashamed of my patch, do
you? For my part, Pm thankful for
a good mother to keep me out of rags.
Pm proud Of my patch for her sake"
This was noble. That boy had the
courage that would make him success
ful in the struggles of life. We must
haye courage in our struggle, if we
hope to come out right.

APoint He Had Overlooked.

known patent attorney, speaking of eccentric
inventors, "a man who came here from Wis

success, and had held letters patent on the
arrangement for six months. His model was
a perfect little beauty and worked like a

Of fixing the 'kiveTs.' As before remarked,
it worked like charm. The corncob would
roll into its little bed and fix the l1iyeIs' as
intelligently It's though endowed with life.
I expressed my satisfaction with the perform
ance, and then queried as to the result should
two persons design, as is often the case, to
occupy the same bed. The man from the
Badger state dropped his cob, stood q mo-

brought his right hand down on his thigh he

Among the many wonderful improve
our city, indicating our metropolitan ad-
vancement, none receive more admiration
and hearty praise, than Mr.. Geo. w.
Eckles' magnificent Palace saloon at the
corner of Seventh and Sibley streets. The
exceeding beauty of the place and its indi-
vidual novelty has attracted
universal interest and caused great
deal of comment ever since MIR. Eckles
threw his doors open to the public. In a
brief mention it is Impossible to detail its
superb equipments and decorations sep
arately, but for their completeness and
the exquisite harmony displayed in the
ornamentation of the different apartments
Mr.. Eckles deserves all the praise and
merits every word of hearty congratulation
that is extended to him by the multitude
of friends he has in st. Paul. He person
ally superintended every feature connected
with its construction and has certainly sue
ceeded in accomplishing the most artistic
results ever seen in the northwest. 1t is

and the hundreds of people who visit it

An EMPORIUM OF BEAUTY.

The Wonderful Display and Advantages
Which John Matheis, the Carpet King
Presents to the Public.
As st. Panl advances in wealth and
social position the tastes and ability OF
her citizens increase, and what was once
satisfactory dwarfs into insignifcance,
No better evidence of this fact can be
found than in the wonderful advancement
which John Matheis, the Carpet King, has
made in the stock which he presents for
the benefit OF the community. A few years
ago the demand was for sub
stantial fabrics only rather than orna-
mentation while at present both are called
into requisition. Mr. Matheis was quick
to see this demand and he has met it in a
most royal manner. His stosk comprises
the most elegant and choice lace curtains
as well as lower grades, superb hangings,
embroidered and gilt trimmings, until the
inspector of his stock can but exclaim ga
thing of beauty is a joy forever"
Mr.. Matheis has made arrangements by
which he secures the first patterns (corre-
spending to artists proofs of choice pic
tures) from the famous houses OF Sloan d
20, and Arnold, Constable & Co., of New
York, and Marshall Field & Co., of Chica-
go. This gives him absolutely the first
styles IN carpet patterns the moment they
are made public. His line of novelties in
goods for house decorations is simply
too immense to attempt to describe.
In wall papers and window shades all
that the heart or eye can desire is suppli-
ed. The elegant display in his show win
dows presents some of the attractions
which he has in stock. He has recently
fitted up the elegant residences of VIM.
Lindeke and Reuben Warner, and is con-
stantly executing orders for the entire
furnishings of costly mansions.
IL this connection it should not be for
gotten that Mr.. Matheis begins tomorrow
great carpet remnant sale, at which great
bargains are offered both in price and
quality.

THE SOCIALISTS,
Meeting of the Internatic nal Society-An
Address from Herr Most.

Meeting of the Internatic nal Society-An
Address from Herr Most,
PITTsBURG, Oct. 13.-The Internal ional
Socialistic Workmen's association con.
vened here tonight, and will continue in
session several days. Nineteen delegates
are present and it is expected that by
Monday when the real work OF the con-
gress will begin, the number will
be increased to sixty. Among the
most prominent socialists present are
Herr Most, Spiese and Drury of New York.
No business was transacted tonight, the
session being devoted to singing, speech
making and PRONUNCIATION OF socialistic
views. Herr Most stated that the special
business of the convention would be to
harmonic the differences which exist be-
tween conservatives and radical mem
bers, and the PRONUNCIATION of an inter
national constitution by proclamation to
all groups" of the western
hemis phere. Fittsburg was selected
as the place of meeting to show the fslla-
cies of the tariff. A declaration of principles
prepared by Herr Most, which has been
presented for adoption recites at great
length that government, church, school and
all other institutions are controlled by cap
italists; declares that conflict is inevita-
BILE, that the aristoeratic class
must be destroyed by relentless
revolutionary activity; that free commu-
nifty or property must be established; that
wealth in the hands of one person must be
limited to 100000; that free commerce
between nations and individuals must be
universal, and that all other doctrines of
socialism must be carried into effect at any
sacrifice of life or property.

scarcely known to the majority of your Eng
Esh readers, and yet IL is Z. fact which a resi-
dence in the country or . perusal of the daily

was shot dead on the spot; the other fled"

When any German officer Is challenged the
question goes before the court of honor of
his regiment, composed generally of the

suit is real, fight he must or leave the service.

matters not True, the decisions OF the said
court form some kind of protection against
the attacks of mere duelling DULLES, upon
whose heads their challenges may recoil with
dangerous severity; but the value of indi-

or any such considerations are, of course,
utterly unregarded. Every man for himself.
And the result-if two workingmen were
to quarrel, and one in the hot blood of the
momentary struggle struck the other on the

would be well for him if he escaped with his

honor as a man and a soldier.
