AFTER TWENTY YEARS.
A Venerable Man who Goes to See his
 Son Married.

When 8 man is first called ''pa," by little one that he has a half interest in, says Peck, of the Milwaukee Sun, he puts his thumbs in his vest, smiles a two for. s-quarter smile, and thinks he is smart. He wonders if ever a man as young and green-looking as he is was called "pa" before, and he puts on style, and thinks that he is thoroughbred.
 But twenty years later, when the afore said infant, grown to a great strapping fellow, big enough to take his 'pa," down at wrestle 'squsre-hold, stands before a minister and promises to love, honor and obey girl for all that is out, and the girl turns and calls the old gen. tleman ''pa" then the smarty of twenty years ago begins to think that he is get ting old enough to turn out to grass and he looks at himself in the mirror and says, "Those are gray hairs, sure enough, and the clearing on that head indicates badness that is not premature" I suppose a man who has eighteen or nineteen sons getting married along at intervals, gets used to it, and does not notice it so much, but my experience is that the first time man has a son mar ried it makes him feel about ninety years old, with his teeth gone. We'll, the big kid IS married, and may God bless him and the little girl he has chosen, and may they live happily to see little ones grow up around them-Oh, gosh, can't write it. can stand it to be called "pa" by all the children in the wide world, but that "grand" word, il seems to me would make me feel like a veteran of 1872. The little seven-year- old kid of the family wanted to get mar ried, too, but he was talked out of 1t, after while. He thought he ought to have as good show in the necessaries of life as his big brother, but finally compromised on having the humps. Mumps are bad enough at home, when one can do his bowling at his family, but to have humps in A great New York hotel, where everybody wonders why you didn't wait till you got home to have them, is bad scheme, but the little boss has promised that it shall not occur again.

THE ARMY IN THE LABOR RIOTS.
When It should he Independent of the Civil
 AuthorIIies.

Tho Military Service Institution held meeting on Governors Island. A paper entitled "The Army in Connec- ton with the Labor Riots of 1S77," by Colonel EIwell $. Otis, Twentieth In- fantry, was read. The writer divided his subject iuto two parts: First, as to the action taken by the United States troops in rendering assistance to the civil authorities in queIling the riots of 1877, and, second, as to the legality of such action. The paper dwelt entirely on the first division of the subj ect, and consisted of an exhaustive review of the incidents of the riots and the disposition of the troops that assisted in putting them down. At the conclusion of the paper Gen. McCook, of the regular army, addressed the meeting, He said, substantially, that he had met great many men, and some that pretended to be lawyers too, who did not know that the army were subordinate to the civil authorities, and could not make arrests. Although the army could not make ar. rests, they could kill. There are pe- culiar people to deal with in Utah, and the Government is liable to get in trouble with them at any moment. But under the present state of the law the army could do nothing but see that the United States mail property were protected.
 Some time ago, continued Gen. Me Cook, in Lincoln County, New Mexico
 number of desperadoes instituted a reign of terror there. The officer com- manding military post in that vicinity was aware of their depredations, but un der the law he was helpless to interfere in any way with them. At length the Governor applied to the President to de clare martial law in the country. The President issued the usual proclamation commanding the rioters to disburse within 30 days. The desperadoes con- tinued their lawless acts until within a few days of the expiration of the time set, when they quietly moved into an adjoining county. It would be pro- ductive of much good, Gen. McCook thought, if the law should be so altered as to allow the troops to act in such cases as this, within the Territories, in- dependent of the civil authorities. Gen. Wales, of the Massachusetts militia, spoke of the plans, which are now being per fected, to render Boston secure from the attacks of mobs. In tine course of his remarks he said that militia officers in dealing with riots find themselves in rather awkward positions. If they quell the riot by shooting some one they are promptly tried for manslaughter; if they shoot no one and fail to put down the disturbance they are as promptly tried by court-martial for cowardice.

Building a Birds Nest.

Yesterday the Prince found a last years birds nest. There was nothing in it. And there wasn't much outside of it. I took it to pieces to show the boy how the bird might have improved the nest building had she possessed the intellect My sermon on the supremacy of the human intellect was very impress sive. The Prince appeared to be pro- foundly interested. His interest deep ened when I began to reconstruct the nest on scientific and intellectual prin- ciples. It continued to increase. It fairly boomed as my difficulties devel- oped and multiplied. But I got the st together at last and laid it on log and looked at it. The Prince only said:
 "Hoh what a nest r'
 He was correct. The most destitute, h pmeless tramp of bird that ever huntel worms would have died without posterity rather than lay an egg in such nest as I had made. It was awful. An old shoe was beautiful and graceful compared with my nest. A passing crow looked down and saw it and with 8 great "caw" of derision carried the news t. the buzzards. And the boy wanted t know why the birds could make nests so much better and prettier than We could2 And l didn't know, unless i was because Col Ingersoll taught them. do not believe myself that he did teach them, but great many people do.

 "Now's the time to s'lute the bride. Step up, gentlemen; step up and help yourselves. This is yer last chance. Ther' ain't nothin' mean about me. I kin spar a few, seein' as how m to hev th7 hull crap, after the first pickin'."

COl0red Folks in Florida.

In an interesting article upon Florida, published in the current number of Our Continent, Mary A. Denison says: : The element of color here is a distinct study in itself, and differs widely from the same phase of humanity in the Middle and Northern States. Most of the blacks I have seen are much like Bret Harte's "Heathen Chinee" of the childhke and bland type, indicated in the poem. They have the appearance of utter innocence and the most blissful ig. norance. They "d'no" this and "d'no" that, but they do know how to draw the dimes from your pocket to theirs, and their varied devices indicate that they make it the study of their lives to se- cure the greatest possible returns for the smallest possible favors. They are lazy and contented. Their log cabins redden, morning and night, with fires of pitch-pine with which the woods abound; their small patches of land yield them cotton, corn and bananas. Some of them are the fortunate possessors of a few ten or twenty-year- orange trees, and, in such case, they will work for no one. The pig that roots round the cabin door, and is, indeed, one of the family, will, in time, supply them with pork and bacon and few roasts. There are 'possums in the woods, wild duck and truck to be had at the lakes, and what little silver they gather from their aid to household labor among the whites, clothes them decently. Why, indeed, should they take thought of the mor- row?

A Prize Winner,

The most interesting competition which has taken place in the New York Dog Show occurred Wednesday, when eight champion pointers were pitted against each other. One was from Or tario, the others from St. Louis, Bradford, Eng. Pitisburg, New Jersey and New York city. Beaufort, the English entry, and Meteor, owned by MT J. W. Munson, of St. Louis, were superior to the other competitors, but it was almost impos- sible to tell which was the better of the two. Five thousand dollars had been wagered by the admirers of these dogs on the question of which would take the blue ribbon. The judges spent three quarters of an hour in canvassing the merits of the two fine animals, submit ting them to various tests and going over their points again and again. At last the blue ribbon was tied on the American dog. The Garden applauded. The prize-winner is valued at SIG, ,000.- Journal,

The Wide, Wide World.

LIMA, REPUBLIC OF PERU.-Senor A. de La E. Delgado, l.. l.. D. and Coun- sellor, Tribunal of Justice, Lima, Re- public of Peru, says One single appli- cation of St. Jacobs Oil cured me com pletely of rheumatic pains in my left arm. I recommended it to two of my friends, the Mrs. Dona Juana Garcia, widow, and Mir. D. Herman Decker, 8 German gentleman. Madam Garcia was relieved entirely by the pain-cure from terrible neuralgia pains of ten months standing. Mir. Decker was cured of in applicable pains by a single application of the cure. My brother used the great remedy for species of paralysis of the arm. He was entirely relieved from his ailment by one or two applications, after having tried numberless other remedies without effect.

I:rnnt x Mnrh.

General U. $. Grant, T. $. Grant, Jr., Ferdinand Ward and James D. Fish are con sidered general partners of the firm of Grant X Ward, which su pended immediately after the suspension of the Marine Bank. Their business was commenced m July, 1880, and in November, 1850, General Grant became a partner The capital of the firm was claimed at S40O,000 of which each of the four partners then contributed $l00,000 U. s. Grant, Jr, married the only daughter of Senator Chaffee, whom, it is said, gave hrr S40O, 900 in United States bonds as a wedding gift. Ferdinand Ward is the son of Presby- terian clergyman, and formerly lived at Gen eseo, N. I. He was 8 nephew of Hon. James Freeman Clarke, ex-Secretary of the United States Treasury.
 It was stated very circumstantially that if the firm went under Gen. Grant would lose S250,000 fund raised for him some time since The fund which was raised for him by sub scription four years ago is safe in the hands of Trustees, the interest only being paid to it's beneficiary.
 Grant < Ward have made an assignment for the benefit Of their creditors. Colonel Fred erick Grant also made an assignment, as did his brothers, Ulysses $. Grant Jr., and Jesse Grant. President Fish. of the bank, ma ie an assignment, and LII, sses Ga t. Jr con veytd real estate in East 73d sreet, New York city, to his fdther-in-law, Jerome E. Chatiee, which is valued in the transfer at S30n, ,Oau.
 The failure grows blacker as it is developed, and indications point to liabilities of enormous proportions. Ferdinand Wards dwelling house was seized by the Sheriff and a receiver was appointed for the firm. Bank Examiner Serbia is still hard at work at the Marine Ma tional Banks books, aud until his report is made public depositors will not be able to know definitely what their chances are. On Satur- day, the belief was general, that the Marine nk-Grant- Ward failure wilt prove the worst ever known in Walt street.
 The New York World said Saturday: Col. Fred Grant says that all that he was worth was in the hands of this firm, and that he was open to an engagement ill any business. Through out all the clamor against this firm not one harsh or unkind word has yet been heard against Gen. Grant. It seems to be generally understood that he has from the first been en- tirely ignorant of the peculiar methods of his partner Mir. Ward, and that he had not a sus- picion of the latter's dishonesty.

A Monster Iceberg.
A WARNING TO MARINERS FROM RE
 sPoNsIBLE sEAFARIEG MAN.

Late arrivals at St. Johns, N. F., bring intelligence of the presence of a large number of icebergs drifting around between the northeast coast of New foundland, and the Newfoundland Banks. The steamship Hector, Captain White, of the Newfoundland sailing fleet, ar- rived and made the following report which is of the utmost importance to seamen generally:
 "On April 27, in latitude 51 deg. IS min. north, longitude B deg. 25 min. west, I saw an iceberg about three miles in length and as nearly as I could judge about seventy feet in height. Around the sides of this huge island of ice were many harbors and creeks. During the whole of my experience I have never seen berg approach this one in size, nor had the oldest sealer on my ship. It wIs surrounded by drift ice and num- Der of small bergs and had not been positive of the position of my ship, should have taken it for an island.
