The Weaver of Brugcs.

The strange old streets of Bru2cs town
Lay white with Gus and summer sun,
The tinkiug gO.t els slowly passed
At mi.king-time ere day was done.
An ancient weaver at his loom
with trembling hands h shuttle piled,
While roses grew beneath MS touch
And slowly hucs were multiplied.
The slant sun. THROUGH the open door,
Fell bright, ana REDEEMED warp and woof,
When with a cry If pain little bird,
A nesting stOrk, from oil the ROOF.
Sore wounded, fluitcrcd in AMI sat
Upon the Old mans Ouisjrctcbed hand:
"Dnar Lord" he murmured under breath,
Hast thou sent me this Lite iriendF
And 10 this lonely heart he pressed
The little one, and vowed 10 harm
Should reach II there. So DAY by day,
Care:sed and sheltered by his arm.
The Young stork grew aVacc, and from
The loom high beans .OOkcd down with
Ofsilent love upon his Gnc cnt fiend,
AstWo lone ones mic 1T syinpathZe.
At last the Dom was hushrd; no more
The deft y-haudlcd shuttle flew;
No more the westcring sunlight fell
Where b.ushing slkcn roses grew.
As through the streets Of Brugcs town
BY strange hands cared for TO his last
And lonely rest, meath darkcnlng skies
The ancient weaver slowly passed;
Then stran"e sights met the gaze Of all
A great white stork, with wing-beats SOW,
Too sad to leave the irlcn h loved,
With dropping head, few cic.ing low.
And ere the 'ramping feet had left
Tine new-made mound. drDpt slowly down
And casped the grave in lbs white wings,
His pure breast on the Garth 80 brown.
Nor food, nor drink, could ,u-c him thence,
Sunrise nor fading sunsets red;
When little children came to see,
The great whi,c stork-w ccad.

Yellow Jack.

CHICAGO, August 18.-A special
telegram from Hermosilla, Mexico, to
this city, says the yellow fever has
made its appearance here, and at
several other places within the state
of Sonora, including the cities of
Pesjira, Torres, Crefema, CahO0rs and
Ortiz. Sixteen deaths at HermOsilla
have been officially reported since
first a knowledge of the fever was
made public. The authorities are at
tempting to suppress all information
regarding the extent of the fever.
A number of deaths are
known to have occurred. At other cit
les many are down with the fever.
The most alarming circumstance in
connection with the outbreak is the
fact that the fever cannot be traced
to Guaymas nor any other place on
the gulf of California, showing that
the germs of the disease have re-
manned dormant since last year. It
is possible that the fever was COM
municated to Ortiz from Guaymas,
but at the other points mentioned it's
origin is believed by old physicians
to be primitively germinal, and un-
less some governmental measure is
taken at an early date, the physicians
believe the epidemic will return an
nually with such increased violence
as will render the country uninhab-
liable in after years. Consabino Mar
mol, a regular army officer, stationed
there, was among the first victims of
the fever.

The Mexican CONSPIRACY.

ST. LOUIS, August ia special
correspondent of the Gzcbe-D emocro!
makes the following statement re.
garding the condition of affairs in the
City of Mexico, his account giving the
latest accessible facts in the case: It
wss rumOred here on Saturday last
that four prisoners in the conspiracy
case had been shot, but the rumOr is
unfounded. After interviewing
prominent government officials this
afternoon, all of whom deny the said
report, your representative is con-
WINGED it is untrue. Your cOrresp0n-
dent saw General Chavarria's son a
few minutes. He reports that he
saw his father this morning, who had
been brought back to his former
place of imprisonment, the barracks
IN this city. General Chavarria sent
yesterday a protest to the government,
the paper declaring he had never had
the slightest connection with. the
conspiracy and knew nothing of it
before his arrest. He says, moreover,
"Why would l conspire against Gen.
Diaz and his party, when 1 fought on
their side at the time of the over
throw of the Lerdo government by
the Tuxtepec revolutionary party?'
p. Francisco Meja, the most eminent
among the alleged conspirators, is
confined in the barracks of this
city with several others of the
accused conspirators, all guarded by
the second regiment of infantry.
A man saw Meja yesterday, who
assures me he is still alive, though he
was reported by certain c%Orrespon-
dents here to have been shot last
Saturday. 1t is generally believed by
the citizens here that some of the
prisoners will be shot, but nobody
when. yet.

A NOTAB BE FACT,

One of the leading Republican Or
gans says "Mr. Blaine offends Eng
land by protecting American labor"
Indeed! When and where was that
protection extended? Since Mr..
Blaine entered public life, and since
his party took control of the gov
ment, the proportion of Americans
employed in the factories of New
England has steadily decreased.
Twenty-Five years ago the daughters
of New England farmers filled the
cotton mills of that section ssof the
Union. They have been superseded
by cheaper labor imported from
Canada and Great Britain. In all
other branches of manufactures inn
ported labor has been used to break
down the wages of Americans. There
is no friend of Mr.. Blaine who dares
assert that he did not support q bill,
which became a law, establishing q
bureau for the importation of labor.
Quite recently the country has been
edited with the history of MI.
Blaine's proceedings as a coal mine
operator, when he protected Amer
can labor" by locking it out and
putting in q cheap imported article.
In view of these facts the less his
friends talk ofhim Is a protector of
labor, the better for his hopes. The
one is as doubtful as the others are

Our coast and harbor defences are

Ing the canvass. It is true our coast
defences are not our strong point, but
Uncle Sam has a terribly big coast to
defend, and all things considered,
there is not much good to be had in
worrying about 1t. A foreign foe
might land his warriors on our
shores, but those warriors should
make their will before they touch

What is English cholera? is a cues.
ton asked, but not definitely an.
swered by an exchange. 1t says: Is
it English because it has appeared in
England, or is it English because 1t is
neither French nor Asiatic? We
presume the meaning intended to be
con veyed is that the epidemic is not
cholera asphyxia. But even English
cholera is not to be encouraged. Its
presence in England is evidence that
1t has received too much encourage
ment. It is an epidemic due to poy-
erty, squaler and dirt. And 50 per-
haps the definition of English caol-
era is, after all, the plague which at
tacks q working population that Ia
