Nebraska Delegates in Chicago.

The Nebraska delegation, says a
Chicago dispatch of June 1st, reached here
early this morning in special car over the
Wabash road. They organized by electing
John NJ. Thurston chairman, and agreed
upon the following distribution Of honors:
Vice president for Nebraska, E. l.. Reed;
member of committee on rules and order OF
business, Chas, p. Matthewson; for COM
mittee on credentials, W. 7. Scott; for per-
manent organization, ]. II. Maccall; for
member of the national committee, Church
Howe. No agreement has been reached as
to the vote, but it is probable that
they will divide. Governor Dawes, mem
Der of the national committee, and u. w.
Dorsey, chairman of the state committee,
are working hard to get the solid vote OF
Nebraska for Blaine, at least on the hrst
ballot, but their success is doubtful. 1t Is
certain that Blaine cannot retain more than
three votes after the first ballot. A large
number of Nebraskans arrived to-day. Inc
congressional delegation, including Messrs.
Henderson, Van Wyck and Laird, will ar
rive from Washing on tomorrow morning.

The Kinds of Life Not Worth Living.
DIR. Valmage.

II IalmaSe.
A life of mere money-getting is
always failure, because you will never
get as much as you want. The poorest
people in this country are the million
aires, and next to them those who have
S5O0,O00. There is not a scissors grind
er in New York or Brooklyn so anxious
to make money as those men who have
piled up fortunes for years. The dis
ease of accommodating has eaten into
them. That is not life worth living.
There are too many earthquakes in it,
too many shipwrecks, too many perdl-
tons. They build their castles and
open their picture galleries, and make
every inducement for happiness to
come, but she will not.
So also life that chiefly strives for
worldly approval is a failure. The two
most unfortunate men in the United
States for the next six months will be
the two presidential nominees. Two
great reservoirs of maledictiOn have
been gradually filling up, and about
midsummer they will be Drumming full,
and hose will he attached to them
and they will begin to play on the two
iioiAlHC\o3 t'Hu 1uOy VIII h"'C ~ HIIAAiH
and take 1.-THE falsehood, the carica-
ture, the venom, the filth, and they
will be rolled over in it and choked
with it. To win that privilege a hum
dred candidates are striving.
The same thing is seen on smaller
scale in the strife for social position.
Good morals and intelligence are not
necessary, but wealth, or the show OF Of
wealth, is absolutely indispensable. 1T
don't make any difference how you
get your wealth, if you only get it.
Perhaps you get it by failing four or
five times-the most rapid way of ac-
emulation in this country. If man
fails once he is not so very well off but
if he fails twice he is comfortable, and
by the time he fails three times he is
affluent. But when you really loose
your money, how quick they drop you!
High social life is constantly in a
change-insecurity dominant, wretch
edness dominant and life not worth
living.

THE MOON INHABITED.
Towns, villages and Cultivated Fields Can
be Seen.

At the astronomical observatory of
Berlin, says u translation from Nya
Pressen Helsingfor, discovery has
lately been made which, without doubt,
will cause the greatest sensation, not
only among the adopts in science, but
even among the most learned. Prof.
Blendmann, in that city, has found,
beyond doubt, that our old friend, the
moon, is not a mere lantern which
kindly furnishes light for the loving
youth and gas companies of Our planet,
but the abode of living, Intelligent
beings, for which he is prepared to fur
rish proofs most convincing.
The question has agitated humanity
from time immemoriaI, and has been
the object Of the greatest interest. But
the opinions have always differed very
widely, and no two minds held one and
the same. Already in ancient times
the belief prevailed that the moon was
inhabited by some higher organized,
intelligent beings, somewhat resembling
man, and in order to communicate
with them the earthly enthusiasts
planted rows of trees several miles in
length, so as to form the figure of the
Pythagorean theorem. The celebrated
astronomer, Schroeder, in the beginning
Of the present century, fancled that he
could detect places on the surface of
the moon which periodically grew
lighter and darker, and from this fact
he derived the conclusion that The
phenomenon was the proof of existing
vegetation. During the last few de-
cades, however, the idea Of life on the
moon has been held up to ridicule, and
totally scorned by men of learning.
But, nevertheless, it has now been
proved to be correct.
By accident DR.. Blendmann found
that the observations of the moon gave
but very unsatisfactory results, owing
to the intensity of the light power of the
moons atmosphere, which Is so strong
that it affects the correctness of the OBJ
servations in very high degree. He
then conceived the idea to make the
object-glass of the retractor less sensa-
tive to the rays of light. and for that
purpose he darkened it with the smoke
of camphor. 1t took months of expert
menting before he succeeded in finding
his right degree of obscurity of the glass,
and when finally found he then with
the refractor took very accurate photo
of the mson's surface. This he placed
in sun microscope, which gave the
picture diameter of 554 feet. The
revelation was most startling. 1t per-
fectly overturned all hitherto enter
tanned ideas of the moons surface.
Those level plants which formerly were
held to be oceans of water proved to be
verdant fields, and what formerly were
considered mountains turned out as
deserts of sand and oceans of water.
Towns and habitations of all kinds were
plainly discernible, as well as signs OF
industry and traffic. The learned pro-
fessor's study and observations of old
Luna will be repeated every full moon
when the sky is clear, and we venture
to predict that the time is not far of
when we shall know more about the
man in the moon than as being an
agent in English politics.

HENRY CLAY'S DAUGHTER.
The Mournful History Clustering About
a Little Stone Sarcophagus in an
Old Graveyard at Lebanon.

Just to the right of the entrance to a
small, illy-kept, almost unused grave
yard at Lebanon, O.---a little city famed
the state over as being the home for
years of the most gifted orator of his
time, Thomas Corwin--is stained and
moldy sarcophagus, less than three feet
in hight and six feet in length, inclosed
by rude fence of barbed wire, stretch
ed upon clumsy, unhewn posts. The
ward bears every evidence of neglect.
The ground around it is sunken, and
the grass and briers Chamber up the
dingy stone tomb's side, and show a
disposition to cover it from view. The
poor, neglected grave is a stranger to
the attention of love-guided hands. A
cluster of sweet violets now lift their
bright faces from the grass near the
head of the tomb, but they came there
by chance. A little later on, the grave
will be showered by the blackberry's
pretty white blossoms, but the breaks
upon which they burst to bloom were
planted there by kindly nature.
And yet beneath these rough slabs
of stone lie the remains of a noble
young girl, upon whom in life was be-
slowed the extravagant love of one of
Americas grandest minded men; a
young girl whose untimely death sad
dened the life of one of the country's
broadcast and wisest statesmen. That
neglected grave contains the remains
of youthful woman, over whose rest
ing place fitting monument should be
erected by the people whom her faith
er's brilliancy so ably served. But it is
neglected, uncared for and almost I'M
known save to few outside of Leban-
on limits.
1t is unpleasant to think that the off
spring of such noble parentage is thus
permitted to suffer long years of almost
utter neglect among people who
knew the story of her birth and of her
distinguished fathers merits, but true
it is that in that humble grave lie the
remains of a daughter of Henry Clay
the man whom Kentucky honors above
all men, the man who labored so
grandly in the interests of nation, and
was within a step of the presidential
chair. Around that little grave clus-
tiers mournful, romantic history. 1t
was related to a Leader reporter few
days ago by one of the old citizens of
Lebanon, while standing beside the
stone sarcophagus, within the rusty
barbed wire Enclosure. Said the Lead
er's friend:
l'Henry Clay, you know, was one of
he four prominent presidential candi-
dates-John Quincy Adams, Jackson
and Crawford. He received thirty
seven electoral votes for the position.
Ax'The electoral college failed to make
achoice, and when the work of elect
ing a president devolved upon the
house of representatives, Clay, seeing
that he could not win himself, carried
his strength over to Adams and Sc
cured the latter's election. In March
of the following year, when Adams or
ganized his cabinet, he rendered Clay
the premler's portfolio. Clay went on
to Washington, and after he had IA

miliarized himself with the duties OF
secretary of state, he returned on a
visit to his home in Kentucky to see his
family, among whom was beautiful
and intellectual daughter, Eliza, whom
he particularly loved. Eliza, at that
time, had just turned her twelfth year,
but she was wise and womanly for her
years, and it was one of the principal
objects of Clay's long and tedious jour
ney to Kentucky to bring Eliza to
Washington with him on his return.
Travel in these days was not the easy,
luxurious affair that it is now. The
cumbrous stage coach was the only
public conveyance that traversed the
pixies, and the trip from Kentucky to
Washington city was both long and
wearying. Henry Clay and his daugh-
ter started for the capital from Lexing-
ton, Ky -, early in August. Miss Clay
was rather delicate, physically, and
found travelling by coach very dis
tressing affair. The hotel fare on the
route did not agree with her, and the
various changes and discomforts she
experienced brought on u malady that
became so alarming when Lebanon was
reached that stop was made here and
medical aid summoned to attend the
young lady at her hotel. She grew
worse instead of better, and one night,
after delirious flight, followed by a
brief period of consciousness, she died
in her fathers arms.
''It was impossible for Mr.. Clay to
return home with the remains of his
dead child, so it was determined to
bury her here temporarily. The inten-
ton was to remove her remains to
Kentucky, and place them in the fami-
ly burial place.
"Mr. Clay, sad-hearted and weighted
down by grief, completed his journey
to Washington. His busy and not I'M
troubled life at the capital, as Premier
of Adams Cabinet, is Il matter of pub
lie history. The grass over his daugh-
ter's grave, and the snow of two Win
tiers covered its meanly appearance
with spotless mantles of white, and yet
no move was made to have the remains
transferred to Kentucky. In the third
summer, l think, the rough sarcopha-
gus was erected by Mr.. Clay, who
seemed to have determined not to dis
turb his daughters rest. The inscrip-
ton upon the upper tablet tells the sad
story in BRIEF
The reporter leaned over, and af-
ter taking up with handkerchief the
water that filled up the depressed por-
tons of the lettering, made out the
following:

they say, "anything is possible with a
woman at the bottom of it."

they say, "anything is possible with a
woman at the bottom of it,
BY II o'clock that night the news
had spread like wildhre among the Sc
lect gossip circles of Nynee Tai, and
even one fair dame, more energetic
than the rest, wends her way up to
Mrs. Cleather's house to see what she
can wean out of the bearer. All he
knows is that the memsahip went off in
great hurry, and he doesn't think
she would be back till the next day.
Worse and worse! Was there ever
such d barefaced piece of scandal as
thisp And they determined tomorrow
to let everyone in the place know of
what has happened.
Morning breaks at Nynee Tai, and
the sun rises over the mountain tops in
all its oriental glory, making everything
around seem bright and happy. Lit
tie does pretty Mrs. Cleather think
there is thunderstorm of no small
proportions about to burst over her
head.
Mrs. Allison, Mrs. Barnard and Mrs.
Dawson are walking on the Mall about
II o'clock when who should they meet
but Capt. Fem himself. He stops and
talks to them, in answer TO their que
ries as to where he was the evening be-
fore, says:
"Well, I had rather a slow evening
at the club. l had intended to 60
down to Douglas Dale to meet Cleather
his wife got a telegram from him in the
afternoon telling her he would be there
at Z 80. So sent down my pony to
Ranibagh for him to ride up the hill
on. I'believe they remained there
last night. I'm rather expecting to
see them coming up the Mall now. By
Jove, there they are!'
