ture, Asiatic cholera, morphine
poisoning, rapid pulse. and terrific
respi ration, and several other aw-
full things. However, an analysis
of tee cake showed that it contained
no substance absolutely poisonous
in themselves, but having been
made by the bride, to the best of
her ability and experience. the cake
was enough to kill a river and har-
Dor bill. The man was very young
or he would have known better and
would have saved the cake to kill
tarantulas with.

THEN AND NOW.

How different the "Guilds " and
"Trade Unions" of to-day and
and those of the middle ages. The
word "guild" is of Saxon origin
and signifies to pay" Original
ly, too, its Specification was actual.
The workmen Of each trade formed
themselves into a guild, and pledg-
ed themselves to protect each
other, and like unto members OF
our secret associations to minister
to fellow craftsmen in distress and
death. In those days a man could
not start ont with a smattering
knowledge of Il trade and under
bid full-hedged mechanics. lie
had to serve regular apprentice
ship and produce masterpiece of
workmanship which was passed
upon by acknowledged experts
Then he was obliged to travel for
term of years, following his
trade in different places, which
gaye him an opportunity to see
something of the world, imbibe
broad conceptions and drink in a
liberal supply of general know
ledge touching the details of his
trade. That was then.
Now, a man works a few weeks
or months at a trade or in q mine,
and goes cut into the world self
professed mechanic or miner, who
underbids skilled workmen, and
turns out work as discreditable to
mechanism us he himself is to hu-
manity. Then he joins political
cabal and helps nominate for the
Presidency as the workingman's
representative, Ben Butler or some
other man who never in his life de-
voted a day to manual labor
Worth is usually, if not always,
modcst-want of it; boastfnl and
noisy. "Worth makes the man,
want of it the fellow" and in no
country in the world are there so
many fellows in proportion to the
number OF men as in the United
States.

Worlds Exposition.

In order to give our readers an
idea Of TIE magnitude of the New
Orleans Worlds Exposition we
mention a few facts concerning the
preparations which are being made.
The main building is the largest
ever erected in the world Histo
ry fails to record the existence of
any single room OF such dimensions
and magnitude 1t is 1873 feet
long by 905 feet wide, 1t covers
33 acres of surface Every part
of this room can be seen from any
point Just imagine a building
covering three ordinary city blocks
one way by five blocks the other
way, and you will have an idea of
the extent of this grand structure.
1t is go feet high, with a tower l15
feet high. A platform on the
tower will be reached by elevators.
From the platform a grand view of
the city, the river and the sur
rounding country presents itself.
The music hall will seat 11,OOO
persons. There will be 600 musl-
clans, and $4,000 incandeseent
lights. The cost Of this great
building will be about 100000.
1t is grand enterprise and is
beng conducted on a grand scale.
The exposition will attract millions
of people, and will result in meal
culable good to the sections max
ing creditable displays.

FINANCIAL EXCITEMENT

1t is indeed strange to those not
possessed Of collosal wealth, that two
or three bank failures in New Y ork
should shake the continent to its
financial depths. And, even to
editors, whose pockets are not worn
out in the vain scraping for money,
the spectacle is enigmatical, con
founding and perplexing. And
yet, the solution seems to lis as a
simple riddle, the sequence being
but the result of gambling, and
gambling with securities and un-
planted, unharvested cereals, is
but the counterpart of gambling
with cards and visible stakes, ex-
cept perhaps, that the latter is the
most honorable. The gambling in
New York is done by bank gamb-
lers, without the prefix faro. "
But unlike faro bank gamblers the
operations of the New York bank
gamblers strike not only the pock
cts of those with whom they play,
but the pockets and stomachs Of
innocent depositors and those de-
pendent upon them. Did they
but lose their own money, the pro-
duct OF their individual industry or
skill, by the turn of their cards,
distress would centre only on the
loser and rot enter and seat itself
i'll the house, cabin or tent of trust
ing thousands near to or remote
from the scene of the gambling
tournament.
The trouble is with poor, weak
human nature. The rich labor (in
their way to become richer, and
the poor build castles, which in
their mind will one day shed gold
Ell or silver sheen which will chal-
lenge the admiration of the strug-
Cling world. Truly money is the
root of evil" for scarcely is its
possessor happy or contented. Its
accumulation is fraught with anxi-
ETY. and its possession corrodes the
heart and poisons the fountains of
the soul. Two or three years since
