CleveIand's Tour.

ALBANY, N. T., Oct. 2.-The depar.
ture Of Grover Cleveland for Buffalo to.
day presented o scene quite unprece.
dentod, 1t Is safe to say, In the history
of the movements of candidate for the
Presidency.
The hour for the special car to leave
had been published daily for four or
five days In the Albany papers, and
care had been taken by the Cleveland
papers to say that the run to Buffalo,
distance of nearly 800 IN lies, would
be run without a stop, In order to save
the candidate from the annoyance of
the crowds. When the Governor
passed through the depot. on the arm
Of General Lathrop, of his staff, the
two stepped briskly with eyes on the
ground ~ IL expecting to be overpow-
cred by multitude Of on-lookers. They
hurried up the steps of the cars and
sought shelter from an imaginary or
Expected outpouring of applause.
| The crush Of the populace consisted
OF ninety five persons by actual count.
among whom were dozen railroad
employees and halfa dozen policemen
and officers. AS soon as the Governor
passed through the gate 1t was closed,
In order, apparently, to keep back the
crowd which the travelling party SEEM
ed to imagine was following. At the ex-
treme moment of enthusiasm outside
the gate there were precisely nineteen
persons. including the gate keeper and
| two policemen. Thus less than l15 per.
sons gathered at the station to see the
Democratic candidate. Not n word Of
| cheer was spoken, nor was there sign
OF either respect or enthusiasm vouch-
safed. The spectacle was painful even to
the political opponents OF the Governor.
He was received here when he came
on tn be inaugurated on January /, 1888,
by five times the number of people who
witnessed his departure to day. After
sitting In silence inside the car for few
minutes, Governor Cleveland stepped
out on the rear platform as if to acknow-
ledge q cheer, but no breath ofapplause
was given. The situation was becom ing
actually embarrassing, when the train
was signaled to pull out AS 1t started,
the Governor, hat In hand, bowed seve-
raj times to the huddle of gazers, smiling
q STACEY. embarrassed smile. No one
lifted hat or gave him even the cour-
tesy OF God speed. Three or four promi.
nent local Democrats, who were present,
turned away, confused, rs the train
sped out of sight.
BUFFALO, Oct, 2.-Govelnor Cleve-
lands train made brief halts at Utica
and Syracuse,at both OF which places he
bowed his Acknowledgements Of the ap.
plause ofquite large crowds of people.
The same scenes were repeated at Ba-
tavia and Rochester. On the arrival in
Buffalo 1t was o'clsck and the rain
was falling heavily, but the streets were
.hrongtd and the city was illuminated.
Governor Cleveland was escorted to the
Genesee House by a procession and was
there presented to the people by Mr..
Henry Martin, when he made shor'
address, returning his thanks for the re-
ception given him.

Regu tar Habits

Most people are apt TO procrastinatt
and leave to da US work for to morrow
Yet habits of regularity contribute
very largely to ho ease and comfort Of
life.
A person can m u;tiply Lis efficiency
by 1t.
We know persons WHO have a n ulti.
tude of duties, and who perform vast
deal of work daily, who set apart Ger
tain hours for given duties, and are
there at Il e moment and attend rigidly
10 What IL in hand.
This is dore and other engagements
are met, each in order, and vast deal
accomplished, not by strained exertion,
but by regularity.
The mind can be 70 trained to this
that at certain tonrs in the day it will
turn to particular line of duty, and at
other hours TO other and different la
borg.
The very diversity is restful, when
attended to IN r.luar. order.
But ,et thee all run together, and the
duties mixed, and what before was
easy Is now annoying and oppressive.
And the exact difference between
many IL just AT this point.
There are those who confuse and
rush and attempt to do several things
at once ard accomplish little. while
another will quietly proceed from one
duty to another, and easily accomplish
a vast amount of work.
The difference Ia not in the capacity
Of the two, but in the regular methods
of the one as compared with the irregu.
lar and confused habits of the other.
