Set Hila UP Again,

BIZ WI. FLAGG.
Set him up again, the same old man!
Aye, set himsup again,
And see to it your yoting's not
A second time in vain.
Or be he sick or be he well,
Or be he weak or strong,
We can at least a verdict tell
Shall right hellish wrong. "a
His eye may droop, his back may bow,
His footsteps fainter fall: 4t
For time has run 'twixt then and now,
And times the lord of all.
But sin of fraud grows never old.
And justice never dies;
And righteous wrath gets never cold,
Unless the Bible lies.
His name, it was our raliying cry,
Our banner man was he, >.
And when they basely struck him down
They struck both you and me.
You, me, and all, not him alone;
Each one of us they smote;
They trampled on our right Of rights
To cast valid vote.
And each of US as well as he
May curses on them rest -
Bears insult unavenged to-day,
And wrong yet unredressed.
Their guilt is ripe for justice now,
And doubly ripe the time,
To wreak q peoples vengeance on
A brigand party's crime.
For this there is one simple thing,
One thing that we should do:
Set up the same old man again.
And this time put him through!
Go for the right, through thick and thin.
Through better and through worse.
And follow Tilden though he lead
The columndn hearsei
To vindicate our country's name,
Truth, honor, and fair play,
Burn deepersin that brand Of fraud,
And wipe nur shame away.
Better were Tflden's hat and boots,
His skeleton or ghost, 8
Than any other living man Is
OF all our noble host.
Then set him up, and Hendricks, too;
Set both up once again,
And see to it your yoting's not
A second time in vain.

Unexplered Cities.

The English are beginning IN a
vague way to relize the magnitude of
India, and to comprehend that it con-
tains some 50,000,00 more people
than all Europe west of the Nlstula.
Few, however, are quite aware of the
number of its cities, or believed that
it includes 62 with more than so, 900
people, and 22 with more than 1Oe,-
600, namely, Bombay, Calcutta,
Madras, Hydrabad, Lucknow,
Benares, Delhi, Patna, Agra, Ban
galore, Umritsur, Cawnpore, Lahore,
Allahabad, Jeypore, Rangoon, Poona,
Admedabad, Bareilly, Surat, Howra
and Baroda. We give them in order
of population, but properly speaking,
in the English way of counting,
Howra, the Southwark of Calcutta,
should be included In the capital,
which, with it, contains above $685.
900 souls, and is the greatest, as it is
by far the wealthiest, city in the En-
pire. Below the limit of so, 900 the
towns become much more numerous,
and there are hundreds with popula
tions above 10000 The majority of
the latter are quite unknown to Euro
peans, an active magistrate or two
excepted; and, so far as we are
awares there is no book in English
which gives the slightest account of
their organization, or of the life and
people in them. Yet many of them
have histories of 1000 years, and in
all flourish families which think
themselves noble and have long pedi-
prees and stirring tales to narrate.
We hear every now and then much
of Indian Princes who In India are
hardly mentioned, and of educated
natives" a scarcely perceptible class,
but of the true British India" as lit
tie is known at home as % the eastern
provinces of Peru.

How sweet to the laboring man in

line in the protected industries the

the laborers object or murmur, II

pect of u loss OF employment and

soon brings them to terlas. The moro

4 Willard Story.

Washington Letter: The meanest
thing have heard about Willard is
the betrayal of his own private secre-
tary, young Harry Spofford, son of
the librarian of Congress This young
man had all of his savings swamped
by his investments IN the Northern
Pacific, and received not the slightest
word of warning from his employer,
when the latter was unloading his
own holdings at the top of the mar
ket. The Northern Pacific people, if
reports are true, spent 4 good ceal of
money here last winter to deter ad-
verse action upon their expired land
grant. A gentleman. who is reason
ably familiar with the workings of
the third house, said the other day
that the Northern Pacific dropped in
and about the capitol $3.50, 900.

Emma Abbett's Secret.
Exchange.

Miss Abbott told Detroit reporter
how she manages to retain her fresh
complexion and smooth skin. This is
how it is done: IN the first place,
off the stage, use nothing on my
face but rice powder to remove the
shiny effect which generous use of
soap always produces. When prepar-
ing my face for the stage you, of
course, know that the most beautiful
complexion passes for nothing behind
the footlights-I first bathe in cold
water and rub briskly with flesh
brush; then annolnt the skin plentl-
fully with glycerine and rub dry with
a coarse towel, after which apply the
cosmetics for the evening. After the
performance | hasten to remove my
war paint with vasellne, and then re-
peat the process of bathing in cold
water, scrubbing with flesh brush
as before the performance. By this
process all the delteterious effects of
cosmetics are avoided. / am very
careful to use preparations that con-
tain no lead, as that kind would
ruin the skin in spite of the best of
care

Ben Buffers Vitality.

Boston letter in Detroit Times
Ben Butler is not a high liver He
can do justice to a full-course dinner,
or he can content himself with a
plate of soup. When he is down in
his Pemberton square office he often
dimes at 25 cent. dinner restaurant,
and l have seen him make his midday
lunch of ham sandwich and bottle
of ginger ale. He never has known
what indigestion was. A republican
statesman once said: ''The devil take
the ogre; he can dine on a bone.

can. When he eats he is very likely
to be silent. He sits down to square

A New Palliative for Murder,

Many a man has been hung for an
act prompted b. passion he could
not control. A bodily condition that
sends the blood to the head unduly
may cause passionate outburst that
cannot be controlled. Dyspepsia is a
prime cause of irratability, and lndl-
gestion is responsible for many if not
most crimes of violence. The jury in
criminal cases has a very delicate
duty to perform, if it would perform
it properly. 1t is roughly done under
our present methods, and really right
eous judgments are rare enough.
The courts are not much more intelll-
gent than the juries in reaching them
The Pennsylvania law ma kes cool de-
liberation a necessary element IN
murder in the first degree, but Judges
instruct the juries that a minute or SO
of cooling time is enough to make the
crime deliberate, and have never
stopped to ask whether dyspepsia or
indigestion stood in the way of such
speedy frigeration.

Washington.

/ WASHINGTON, Jan. 15.-At meet.
ing OF the house committee ON public
lands this morning, considerable time
was given TO the arguments of PRYOR
made yesterday, in favor of the trans.
fer of the Texas Pacific land to the
Southern Pacific.
The subcommittee in charge of the
/ forfeiture of land grants to railroads.
directed that the report declaring the
land grant forfeited be made to the
full committee tomorrow. 1t is based
on the grounds that the Texas Pacific
i company did not comply with any
requirements of the act granting land
TO the Southern Pacific had defeated
the building OF the Texas Pacific for
the parpoSe of preventing competi-
ton line with the Central Pacific.
The object of congress in making the
grant, the committee SAYS, was 10 Sc,

the east.

THE DEPARTMENT OF INJUS


The testimony of Brewster Gamer
on, the general agent Of the depart
ment of justice before Springer's com,
mittee, on the expenditures of that
department, is a story of fraud and
corruption which is Sickening indeed.
He relates with great frauknesS that
the Pittsburgh marshal owes the gov
ernmsnt $3.50, 900, and that he snaps
his fingers coolly AZ the de-
partment in their endeavors to
force him to diSgorge. This
marshal he said had recently resigned
because one of his deputies had threat
ened him with exposure. He tells OF
two marshals in Alabama who were
indicted for frauds. One of them has
since been nominated for federal ap.
pointment rs receiver of public mon
eys for that state. Another, indicted
for the same cauee, has recently been
nominated for collector of internal
revenue. Robert Douglass. the mar
shal for the western district of
North Carolina, is short in his
accounts. and defes the depart
ment. He will let no one
examine his books. He was re-
moved, but took his books with him.
The marshal of the western district
of Texas has swindled the govern
ment. This man has been sent tC
the penitentiary. A deputy marsha
of the western district of Missouri
swindled the government out of 81,
50s. The marshal of South Carolins
has resigned to escape investigation
Two or three have been sentenced
and confined in the penitentiary but
they are smaller fry and not so infiu
ential in a political way. He naively
told of a clerk in Illinois who had re
lieved the surplus in the treasury oi
$50, 900. Another clesk is short IL
his accounts S113,21S. He is a south
ern clerk. and as he is delegat,
fixer, he has not been worried to keer
his plunder. He tells of a number o
removals of marshals and deputies
bat confesses that but a small par
of this unfathomable sea of corrup
ton has yet been explored.
