BULWER LYTTON'S BRIDGE.

Great Columns i'm Midstream.


''What beautiful bridge between old age
and childhood is religion. How intuitively the
child begins with prayer and worship on enter

the old man turns back to prayer and worship,

''Strange Story"
Yes, but between its distant abutments the
bridge Of life has many high and awful arches
through which the wild waters dash and roar
In wrath and desolation., Prayer and worship
alone do not sustain these. Natures solid
art and skill must rear and solidify the struc-

in the laws He has made for the creatures
whom He has placed under their control. Mel

single grain.
Science and art first-then faith and prayer

through its agents, ond those agents are the
discoveries of man; not the vague announce

to you? Does time drag? Is your power to
cope with life's problem and duties weakened?
You are not WELL Your blood is sluggish and

What They learn In WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., August 2S.-Mr.
Wilson, Democratic member Of the House
from West Virginia, Is III the city to-day.
He expresses himself as most saDguine OF
the success OF his party in that State-nOt
Oniy in the State, but in the national cleo
ton. The Democratic candidate for Con-
gross in the Wheeling district. the only dis
trici IN the state now represented by
Republican, is. he says, very popular
man and Is making an active canvass. and
will probably be elected, as, IN addition 10
the other things in bis favor, is the fact
that the Republicans are not united and
that their candidate will not be as strong
as their last one. lie says that while the
Democrats Of bis State are enthusiastic,
the Republicans are just the reverse.

The Bartholdi Statue.

New York has milIionaireS by the score.
one Of them not long ago presented the
driver or trainer of his trOtting mare with
ten thousand dollars. Another Of them
extended a hundred thousand dollars, we
think il was, in giving one Ginner.par!y.
Another Of them owns five times as much
properly as all the people residing in this
city own, taken together. And yet
when the pltiiul sum Of $4,000 is needed
10 nut the BARTHOLDI statue in position
these New York millionaircs become beg
cars and send out circulars asking persons
everywhere TO send 10 them the small
amount Of twenty-five cents each! This Is
disgraceful TO The Empire City and state.
One hundred and twenty-five thousand
dollars is not as much for New York
as one thousand for Richmond, and
IL thousand dollars were needed
here under like circumstances it could
and would be collected in an hour.
The people of France paid for the
statue and presented it to the people OF the
United States; or rather, speaking more ac-
crately, to the people Of New York. But
the people OF New York are not liberal
enough to pay for the proper disposal OF
this grand gift. Again we say, shame on
New York's miIliOnaires.

degree cl certainty that the Republic
cans would nominate candidate Tor
President whose record was obnoxious
10 such a large mass Of the con-

fact that the scsndlnavians, who con.
sti,ute an important political factor IN

aud foot 10 the Republican Juggernaut, had
begun to think for themselves, and were
growing restless under Republican meth

the majority Of the Scandinavia votes
may be counted for the Democrats In the

affected German votes and the Independent
Republican votes. and II would appear that
the correspondent OF the Boston Herald
is fully justified in the position he taxes
while the Springfield Republican might go
further than II does. The Democrats now
have six ont Of the nine congressman from

an advantage in the fight not TO be desp'sed

Republican Conventions yesterday met
in the several congressional districts OF this
state. and nominated candidates for tae
House OF Representatives. This was a
mere empty form so far as most OF the dis
tricts are conc rned. The nomination OF
candidates and the prctence that these
nominees may possibly be elected. thus
carving Virginia for BLAINE and LOGAN,
would be reasons additional 10 those AZ
fordcd In the character OF the recent Re

lean National Committee for funds to be

Again: II BLAINE should be elected,
these defeated nominees for Congress would

have some claim upon him for fat Office.
Our forecast as 10 the result in this State
is that the Democrats will carry without a
serious contest the Third, Fifth, Sixth,
Seventh, and Eighth districts; that they
will carry after contest Of some interest.
the First, Ninth, and Tenth districts; and
that the Republicans will carry The Second
district and the Fourth unless the boilers
and indictments in these two districts set
up opposition candidates. We ought to
add that the Second district is not by any
means beyond redemption. The Demo-
Gratis havea " lighting chance" even in that.
