TEMPERANCE TOPICS.

The New York Tribune we'll denomin
a,es the question Of dealing with the traffic
in Intoxicating liquor 1.-THE question of the
age" and says: 1t is impossible to exam
inc any subject connected with the progress
he civilization, the physical we'll being, the
religious condition OF the masses, without
cncountering the monstrous evil. II lies al
the center of all political and social mis-
chief: 1t paralyzes energies in every direc'
ton. 1t neutralizes educational agencies
Il silences the voice Of religion. 1t battles
penal reform. Il obstructs political reform
Judge Mcconnell, Of the Fifth Judicial
District Of Tennessee, says he has eight
counties and 10000 people in his district
without single dram shop or place where
YOU can buy drink of liquor. There is
not an habitual drunkard among the $4,000
people. Crime has been reduced sixty per
cent. Grand juries which had sixty indict.
nrnts formerly now have but two. No
town marshals are needed. Prohibition has
changed the entire face Of the community.
In MARYLAND nine counties under prOhibi-
ton, with population Of 17o,I34, had but
lh) commitments, while fourteen counties,
with 4,,,4o6 inhabitants, had 3,222 COM
mitments.
The Woman's Christian Temperance
Unions are everywhere active and aggres.
sive. Good Templars, Sons Of Temper
ance, and other organizations increase and
ayitate, while open societies, amendment
associations, etc, everywhere abound in good
words and works. Politicians stand aghast
and dumbfounded, not knowing when or
where the movement will strike them and
find their occupation gone. The liquor
irat.r nity are every VII re organizing % &C.
fvnd their trade and bid defiance to law
and order all over the land. The saloon
has not one redeeming quality. The PEG.

Licensed to make strong man weak;
Licensed to lay the wise man low;
Licensed wife's fond heart to break;
And lake her childrens tears to flow.
Licensed to do thy neighbor harm;
Licensed to kindle hate and strife,
Licensed to nerve the robbers arm;
Licensed to whet the nurderer's knife.
Licensed thy neighbours purse to drain,
And rob him of his very last;
Licensed to heat his feverish brain,
Till madness crowns thy work at last.

TO spread thy nets for man, thy prey,
To mock his struggles! suck him dry;

.. lost, lost days. o, dear, dead days,
With light ard song and blooms so
sweet,
Your smiles come not TO barren ways
Where now we tread with aching feet;
While slanting shadows swiftly grow
To mark life's waning afternoon.
And chill winds whispering sad and
low
Tell Of night that falls too soon.
o, lost, lost days, through which we
toiled
With faltering step and weary brow
For prizes that are lightly held;
Dear God, we do not want them now
SO cold has grown the world and wide
They could not hush our dismal fears,
While tireless wait, our hearths beside,
The phantoms Of those wasted years.
But Turing CLEAN Of radiant hope,
Floats backward from liie's morning
land
TO gid again the fading slope.
While lone and desolatt we stand,
So near, so near that rivers brink
Whose frozen breath has chilled the
flowers.
NO more in fevered dreams to drink
The incense of diviner hours.

II tried to reform for the sake
of my little blue-eyed child; but
God was kind, and in a few weeks
she passed away to her mother.
Then / had no one to love me and
| deliberately gavem my life to vice
and proffiigacy. Who does not
know "Grogshop Frank, the old
drunkard ? Why, even the chill
dren scott at me, and the men
who took my money and gave me
liquor, spurn me like dog. /
am old, my body is weak and
worn-out, and death is a welcome.
God forgive me!'
A rush,---a splash,--a beating
of the waves upon the shore--a
white face---a gasping sound
and--stillness again.
One more unfortunate,
Weary of life;
Rashly importunate--
Gone to his death.
The river flowed on, it murky
surface mdisturbed; the stars
shone just as steadily in the far
off dome; the sleeping city was
just as quiet and still; but the
weary life was o'er--the pilgri-
mage ended. The next morning
a body was found on one of the
low banks, and the papers said it
was only told Grogshop Frank. "
Yes, it was only that poor mans
body, cast ashore in the night
but who can say, as he sank be-
meath the water, that the spark
ling heights above were not crown
ed with angels, and maybe the
lost wife and daughter smiled
down upon him as he disappeared
in watery grave.
Let the river tell the story to
the sea; and may my friends be-
ware Of the demon that kills the
soul and heart, and be saved from
a suicides grave. God grant that
we may be sensible,and that both
young and old may abhor the cup
that "stingeth like an adder and
biteth like serpent!"- Grant

dark and the wind mourned sor-
rowfully. The streets were de.
serted, and the river ran swiftly
and murmuringly onward to the
sea. 1t was one of those nights
generally given to meditation and
thought. The clock in the pub
lie hall beat the hour of mid
night. It's muffled tones scarcely
ceased to vibrate on the still air,
when a figure turned q corner and
walked slowly towards the roll
ing river. 1t was man known
as "Grogshop Frank At length
he stood alone upon the bank.
Worn and dirty and featureless
was his face, and wild and blood
shot the eyes that gazed fixedly
at empty space. His clothes were
a bundle of rags; his hat greasy
and dusty, and his form crouch
ed close by the bank, resembled
that Of a beast more than of hui
man being. What were his
thoughts, where was his home,
and why stood he there at mid
night alone? Was the man pray
ing? 1t appeared so,for his form
was almost motionless. OF sud-
den he arose and walked restless
ly along the bank. 1t seemed as
if his peace was disturbed by his
thoughts. But he is communing
with himself as he walks:
Courses upon me! Why need
/ longer live, when death willkill
all my pains and end my sorrows?
The river will end my weary life
forever. | am wretched, money

her from starvation and death.
And / cursed her. My God, will
/ never forget that night How
my little four-year-old Jennie put
her arms tenderly around my neck
and how i hurled her from me
and rushed down to the saloon

HUMAN SKELETON reUsD IN GROVE
Supposed to be that or Clark who WAS
Hung for Murder.

Yesterday box was discovered in the
brush near the road leading from Boze-
man street across to the main road to
Story's mill, and quite an excitement
was created upon the supposition that
someone had been murdered, but an in
vestlgation by the coroners jury has led
to the conclusion that the skeleton was
that of Clark who was hung here this
spring. 1t has been generally known
that the body OF Clark was exhumed
and it has been an open secret that some
Of the medical fraternity had it in poss-
cssion for anatomical purposes; in fact it
has not been attempted to disguise the
Fact, and many persons have been heard
to say that they had seen Clark's body a
long time after he was hung. The skele-
ton, minus the head. was enclosed in a
beer case and deposited as above stated
i'm the grove near by Common ,lecency
