Poetry.
The Minister'S Wife.

Sermons unwritten and unsaid
Her quiet life is preaching:
Fresh texts from loves own Gospel read
Her daily lips are teaching.
No loud mouthed Pharisaic prayers,
No lengthy exhortation;
But in her cup of many cares
l. mingled consolation.
II one she loves can break the bread
AT Jesus blessed table.
She can eNclaim with bowed head,
Lord that he may be able"
She may not pour the holy wine
Al any glad communion;
Her mission is no less divine
To be a loving woman.
To hold the hand which breaks the bread
That ii may give the brothers.
To soothc betimes the aching head
That thinks the thought for others.
To sing the song Of JOY and peace
For him Who tries to speak il.
To make sweet charity increase
Where other hearts will seek il,
Sometimes in low-voiced baritone,
Sometimes in treble sweetness.
The old. old story. better known
Shall give each life completeness.
80 though no ordination vows
Nav con>ecrate her life,
Nv heart 10 her in reverence bows.
The quiet preachers wife.
Golden Rule.

The tobacco trade association, OF Phil-
adeIpbia. held a meeting last evening at
tho rooms of the board of trade, to take
action in tho matter OF recovering from
the government the rebate allowed to to
bacco dealers by the act Of Congress-,
March 3, 1888 This act Is to the effect
that ON all original and unbroken pack
ages of smoking tobacco aud on cigars,
cigarettes and snuff upon which tax has
already been paid rebate shall be allowed,
amounting TO fifty per cent. Of the former
tax. After passing this act Congress pre-
vided that the manufacturers should be
paid this rebate In revenue stamps, but no
provision was made for the payment OF IL Q
rebate to dealers In tobacco. The number
of dealers claims which have been pre-
sented IL 46, ,0l3, for an aggregated amount
Of 90, ,5SS, 1881. .03. OF these 90 have been
rejected and 3, 014 returned for amendment,
amounting to s190, 959.27, aud the number
of claims, including those returned Tor
amendment, which will finally be ac
cepted, will make 80, 5S6, 540 % due the
dealers throughout the country.
The dealers OF Philadelphia should
receive from s150, 600 to Sl75, 900. A com
mittee of three were appointed by the
chairman, to draw mp resolutions calling
the attention of the United States seua-
tors and representatives from Pennsyl
vania to the peculiar position OF the tobacco
dealers of Philadelphia aud urge the ne
cessity of further national legislation fOl
relief Such resolutions were adopted aud
will be sent to the chairman of the com
mittee of ways and means at Washington
according TO Mr.. Randalps advice, and tC
all the representatives to Congress from
Pennsylvania.

Mr.. EuWln Booth Is now In new GOrk

forded TO an observer one evening, who
walked near him from Sixth avenue.

Of Madison Square Mr.. Booth was with
two larger and more commanding look
ing men, yet he attracted all the atten-
ton even from those who did not seem.
to recognize him. His fine face with its
deep lines and sad y ct, firm expression,
and his long, wavy lron-gray hair made
him cousp .Cuous. In dress anu bearing

wore a black derby hist, black neck-tie,
and long brown frock overcoat. Twen-
ty-.hird street was we'll filled with pee
pie at the time, and MIR. Booth was
walking on the less crowded side. The
first TO notice him was a young clerk
walking with o comnanion. He q lickly
turned and said, There is Booth" and
then passed on.
Many intelligent looking men and
women passed him by but a modest nurse
girl, leading two children with only a
view from a top gallery to remember
him Ivy, recognized the lace ano deier-
entially said: "Childrep, there is Mr..
Booth" At the corner Of Twenty-third
Street and Fifth Avenue, where the
crowd was thickest, a richly dressed girl
in her teens suddenly clasped her hands
and ra~pturously said: '.Oh, there is
Booth-oh dearl" and she followed him
with her eyes until he disappeared in
the crowd in front Of the Fifth Avenue
Hotel. AS he walked through the vast
moving throng about n person in ev
cry six seemed to be attracted by his
face. About one in every ten gave signs
of recognition either by the expression
of their -countenances or some brief
word t otheir companions. The tragedian
lodged through the lines OF hacks and

ner, and seeking an untreqlented spot

oRDwAY ON THE ANTI oRDwAT PETITION.
WAsHINGToN, Special Telegram. Dec. 2S.-
Gov. N. q Ordway OF Dakota arrived here this
evening from his old home in New Hampshire,
with an invalid daughter, whom he expects to
take to the Hot Springs in Arkansas, for a very
acute case of nervous paralysis or sciatica.
In response TO an inqu ny as to whether he had
seen reports that a memorisl against his re-
appointment was being sigded in Southern
Dakota, the governor, said he saw q state
ment to that effect in the Critic pnsportiDg 10
come from Huron, OAK. As that was the point
selected by e~x-Judge Campbell & Co. for
Matching their revolutionary State scheme.
He would not be at all surprised If
some movement of the KIDD were on
foot Petitions bearing any number of sigma
tures could easily be procursd, ~ the persons
copying them usually put as many names to
them as were needed. The governor said it was
DOT an uncommon occurrence for him TO receive
sworn petitions for the organization of new
counties purporting to hare been signed by Ave
or ten times the number OF actual settlers in
the county. The governor says he courts the
~strictest Investigations OF all his Official acts. and
thinks il would be more manly for his assail-
ants to present sworn charges TO the president
that he may have a chance to sindIcate himself
and make his traducers answer before the
courts at the capital for perjury and criminal
libel As to his reappointment or continuance
In Office, it docs not give him the least concern,
since he would gladly have resigned long ago
but for the indecent andconstant warfare which
the Sioux Falls aud Yankton rings have waged
against Eim. "A citizen of Huron writes that
ne most thorough canvass possible lis being
made of the Territory for the purpose of recelv-
ing signers to petit ms to the president against
the reappointment Of Gov. Ordway. He thinks
10000 names will be placed to the petitions,
and that there can be no good grounds for the
reappointment or the executive.
