The World is Round and Small.

You are from Bridgeport" said he,
to his lips, while he drew his chair
closer to mine. ''Well, want to know
if you ever knew Miss who left
your city in 1877. and who married a
man in Omaha the same year? l met
her under very strange circumstances
in princely Western city just eight
years ago this month. A party of us
had been making night of it in
fashionable restaurant of the city, and
it must have been after two O'Clock in
the morning, when from my position ut
the table, sitting almost as now sit, /
saw through the hall mirror side door
carefully open. and in the room an in
slant later tall, queenly form, clad in
velvet and seaiskin, with blazing
light in the eyes that rivaled the dia-
monds she wore. saw her distinctly
as her glance swept the room from end
to end, and held my glass to my lips
as now am doing. while she raised
glittering pistol slowly from the folds
of her cloak. You may believe that
every instant was an age until l saw
the direction that pistol was pointed,
and give you my word that l could
not have lowered that champagne nor
made a sign to warn the party at the
table behind us, although there was
sure death in the steady grasp of her
white fingers on that murderous weap-
on. Shoot? why, of course she did, and
the confusion that reigned for a few
enabled the cause of it all to
slip from the room as quietly as she
had come in. We found an ugly shoul-
der wound the extent of the damage,
but were never enlightened as to the
inner cause of the revengeful act, and
I believe that the injured party and
myself alone of that assembly knew the
party thereafter. Eight years ago this
happened, and now, for the first time,
am looking straight into the eyes of
that woman, while my glass is to my
lips. and she knows me, l feel sure!
Turn your head slowly and see herr
Just the same stately beauty, with
robes and diamonds fit for a princess,
but attended by husband well known
in Washington lobbies. Yes, that is

A Destructive 1'hreshing
Machine Accident.
AMan Hurt and a Barn Burn
ed
MIILVLLE ITEMS.

On last Sunday morning the citizens
of this place were startled by mes
senger running his horse in from the
ridge, rbout four miles from
town, and stating that Matthias
Brillman. while threshing at Mr..
j. Shultzs, had got his foot in the
machine. and at; the same time
the barn catching on fire. Later
we learned that the straw at the
side of the machine caught fire
by some cause, and Mr. Brill
man saw it first, and in his ef
fort to extinguish it with some
coats. he slipped and his right
foot caught in the cylinder and
tore off three of his toes. The
flames spread so rapidly, that
when he was released, nothing
more could be done towards saw
ing the barn, and it with its con-
tents. consisting of wheat, rye,
clover seed and hay burned.
Mr.. Shultz is poor man and
we hope his friends and neigh
bors will help him. Drs. Rut-
ter, Sharpe and Brown were call
ed, and are making an effort to
save part of his foot. We hope
they may succeed. j. G.

FrOmise and Performance

A correspondent in last Mon
days Enquirer, describes the situa-
tion in the Hooking Valley ex
actly:
"In glowing, red hot, reckless
language the Republican platform
tells the country and its people how
happy and prosperous they are!
But hasty run down the beautiful
and once busy Hooking Valley pre-
sents a picture of distress that doe )
not CONSIST with the Republican
platform. The men who penDed
that instrument doubtless thought
because they are Congressman and
office holders were drawing the
same pay and pickings that they
have enjoyed for years honest peo-
pie were DONG the same, bu; they
are not. Coming over the Hooking
Valley Railroad l did not notice a
single coal train whe:e formerly
one was waiting on every switch.
Hundreds of miners are idle, and
thousands of cars, miles in length,
stand idle on the side tracks The
fires are out in all the fu naces
which a few moths ago lighted up
the midnight skies IN almost a con
tinuous blaze from Logan to the
Ohio River. Wheat is on 77cts a
bushel here, and the Republican n
platform could not even bring
rain at the right time, ST. the corn
crop is "A failure, and in Vinton and
Gailia counties the corn in many
places, has tasse'ed when only
pest high, and there is not enough |
corn in the field to make cake. nor
fodder enough to make bouquet !
These are only some of the ills
that lave overtaken the people |
of this district. God only knows
what may happen to them if Gros
venor is elected 10 Congress-

not-but let each one busy HIM
self in cleansing his own con-
science of the poluIing stains,
and when he has become so pure
that his conscience cannot dete"t
tIace of sin, he may then par
ade the short comings of lis
neighbor before the world.
Until that time let meddling
cease and SANDER die, knowing
that he who knoweth the minds
of men AID the impulses of the
heart, doeth all things well, and
hath commanded that, "He that
is without sin among you, let
him first cast stone"

Caeyeiand'S Letter Of Accent
anCe.

Gov. Cleveland's Letter of Ac-
ceptance appeared yesterday
1t is a model, statesmanlike doc
ument-short and TO the point.
He places himself squarely up
on the Democratic platform and
pledges that if elected he will
make Reform in all the depart
ments of government, the ruling
idea of his administration.
He advocates the highest wages
TO workingmen and denOuaces
the importation of pauper labor,
He opposes veXatious legisla
tion attempting to interfere with
the quiet and established habits
of the people.
He favors protection to Ameri-
can industry, and to American
commerce, and insists on cheap
and accommodating tranrporta-
-iion in the interests of the pro
ducer as we'll as the consumer.
One paragraph which is espe-
cially applicable to our Valley
is this, and should command the
attention of our working men.
II is this:
s'The labor.ng classes constitute
the main part of our population.
They should be protected in their
effort peacefully to assert their
rights when endangered by ag-
gregated capital, and all statutes
on this subject should recognize
the care Of the state for honest
toll. and be framed with a view
to improving the condition of the
workingman."
The lettor will be published in
full next week.
