The Unriyaled Express Rider.

In 1910 Major Houghton, proprietor
of the Boston Atlas newspaper, engaged
Mr.. Twichell to collect the votes of the
State on the day of election. so that they
could be published in his paper on the
following morning. This feat, which
was regarded by many as impossible,
Mr.. Twichell accomplished by having
the returns brought by assistants, with
reavS of horses. from every town of tho
State to central route. This was year
ly done for ten years. On one occasion,
after voting in Worcester and riding to
Greenfield, distance of tifty-five miles,
where he was to receive returns in per-
son, he found that his messengers from
Williamstown, Adams and the north
western part of the State, delayed by
the bad weather and travelling, had been
unable to leave Greenfield until two
hours after the appointed time. MIR.
Twichell rode to Worcester in the face
of an easterly storm, but arrived ten
inmates after the engine, which started
at the hour appointed, had left. He
pushed forward on horseback fOrty-tive
miles farther, and reached Boston in
season for his dispatches to appear in
the morning AtidS. Another re-
markable feat was performed by
Mr.. Twichell in 1916. The lead
ing newspapers of New York were eag-
er to secure dispatches expected to ar
rive at Boston by the foreign steamer in
January of that year. The Herald made
arrangements to carry its-own Dispatch
es from Boston to Norwich by railroad,
thence by boat to Long Island, and
across the island by mail to New York
CITY. The Tribune and other papers of
New York and Philadelphia being ex-
cluded by the Herald from participating
in its arrangements with the railroad
and steamboat companies on this route,
employed Mr.. Twichell, who was
obliged to use horses for most of the
distance. He could obtain an engine to
run from Boston to Worcester only on
condition of its being fifteen minutes be-
hind the HerdLd'S train. From Worces-
ter to Hartford, distance of sixty-six
miles, he rode on horseback through a
deep snow in the remarkably short time
of three hours and twenty minutes;
thence from Hartford to New Haven by
railroad, thirty-six miles; from New
Haven to New York, seventy-six miles,
by horse, and reached New York City
in season for the printing of the dis
patches before the arrival of those of the
Herald Mr.. Twichell's remarkable
feat of horsemanship excited so much
interest that it was commemOrated by
large and beautiful engraving entitled

-Bayard Taylor used to say that OF
all men he had ever seen Hawthorne
was the most remarkable for possessing
eyes that flashed fire, the pupils being
sometimes SO dilated as to render the

to them Queen Victoria's lack of fond
ness for that statesman. Her Majesty,
they say, has on several occasions been

.~THE DRUNKliRD'S FATE.

I saw him AT the cIOsc of day
Stand by the grog-shop door;
His eyes were sunk, his lips were parchcd.
! viewed him DER and DER.
His infant boy hung by his side,
And lispingto him said:
"tOmc, father. mothers sick at home,
And sister cries for bread
He trembling rose and staggered in,
As he had done before,
And to the landlord talteTing SAID:
Come, give us one glass more"
The host complied; his purple lips
Then pressed the venOmcd bowl:
He drinks while wife and children starve-
To ruin sinks his soul.
A year elapsed; ! passed that way;
A crowd stood round the door;
] asked the cause, when one replied:
THE drunkard is no more"
j saw his funeral pass along
No wife, no children there;
They. too. had joined their mother earth,
And left this world of care.
Reflect. We vOtarics of the bowl
Know yC tiS Heavens decree.
"Thou ne'er shall taste eternal life
Till from the bowl thou tiee.'
