Hon. Joseph Pulitzer made an address
at the monster German DemocJatic ratih
crtiou meeting in New York on Monday
night. lie opened his address by sayiug
''Ths real coufiiot is not between the
Democratic party and the Republican
party, bat between the Republican party
and the epublio. The real question is not
whether change of administration il DO
litic, but whether it is possible. The real
issue is not whether you will change the
government, but whether you can change it,
The real struggle by those now in power
is not to ascertain aud obey the will of the
majority, but to obstruct oppose, humbng
aud hOodwin the we'll known will OF the
majority. Shall the people control the
government or shall the government
control the people. After quarter
OF century of power the Repub
iican party puts up branded candi-
date"
The speaker closed by urging the
necessity OF change Of oSadministration.
Speeches were also made by Oswald Ottea-
dorier, who presided, General Franz SigeI

Lives Lost Ia . Cyciouo.

At O'Clock Sunday evening the little
village Of ShOnRo, N. Y, lying eight
miles south cf WsllsvilIe, ON the banks of
the Geuesee river, was struck by Cyclone,
the most terrific ever known in that section
IL came over the hills from the west,
sweeping everything before it, and struck
the town in the centre. In two minutes
the work of destruction was complete. The
eastern half of the town was utterly de-
molished: Two persons were killed in
stsntly, fifteen seriously injured and fifty
rendered homeless and destitute. The
scene beggars description. The largest
trees were snapped like pipe stems, the
strongest buildings were torn to pieces aud
scattered 10 all directions and roads and
fields for half mile are covered with
fragments Of buildings and household
goods. Willis Gardner and Mrs. Edward
Pratt were killed. The following were,
seriously, some it is feared, fatally, injured I:
Mr.. and Mrs. Edgar Peet, DR.. A. A.

An Incident of The War.

In the early part of 1864 short but
spirited fight occurred at place in East
Tennessee called cambridge, between a
part of Longstreet's crops and consid-
cradle force of Federal cavalry. Many
were killed on both sides. Among the
Confederate dead was man named Sea
ford, from North Carolina, who had been
a professor of mathematics in one of the
colleges of that State, and who was one
OF the finest looking men we ever saw.
He was private in the Washington
Light Infantry, from Charleston, S. c.,
snd would not accept commission,
though it was rendered him several
times. He was buried on the spot
where he was killed, and his comrades
returned to their quarters miles
away About two weeks after the fight
a letter came to his address. The cap
tain of the company opened it, and it
proved to be from young lady to whom
Seaford was engaged to be married. 1t
was written on the very day the fight
occurred at cambridge, related to dream
the writer had just had, in which she saw
Seaford lying dead on the battlefield,
shot throuh the left breast describing
the death wound exactly as it was and even
the to Biography of the field, though she
had never seen it, and in all probability
knew nothing of the battle. She begged
him to send her lock of his hair as a
sacred memento should anything happen
to him.-Petersburg (Va.) Hder-1p-

A CITY On Wheels.

arrived at Bartlett, D. T., about the
middle of the afternoon of a beautiful
day. | found some stir and activity
among the people of the city, but it
seemed to be the excitement incident to
the emigration of city on wheels. The
people generally had abandoned all hope
of the city, and moved their houses
bodily to Devils Lake and other places.
The houses were first lifted on to large
timbers of sufficient size and strength to
bear the weight of the house. These
timbers were then suspended under two
monstrous freight wagons on either side
of the building; four large horses or oxen
were then hitched to the wagon on each
side, and the road to Devils Lake being
across smooth prairie, the teams were
able to move along easily with fair
sized building Some of them, with the
teams attached, presented to my mind
sights most magnificent. 1t was the
first that | had ever seen a city on wheels
| had seen people moving on a large
scale in their so-called prairie schoon-
ers, but the sight was tame compared
with this | thought of remark / once
heard to the effect that 1.-The approach
of a train of cars drawn by powerful
engine was a magnificent sight to be-
hold, and | thought to myself road
lined with two-story houses, moving to
the music of the steady tread of teams
of eight powerful oxen, was sight
equally magnificent And such was the
fate of the once proud city of Bartlett

Floating Gardens.

Among the most remarkable illus
trations of human energy are certainly
the floating gardens in Kashmir, in
Eastern Asia, the more so that they are
the work of an essentially INDECENT pop
ulation. For their creation an expanse
of water about nine miles in circum-
ference has been utilized on which
masses Of weed, grasses and aquatic
plants grow and become intertwined and
entangled These form the soil as it
were. on which cultivation is carried on.
Divisions are made in them. they are cut
level with the surface of the water and
then banked over with river mud Prop
erly prepared for this purpose, this soil
is sown with melons and cucumber
plants, and crop is raised which is un-
equalled in any country in quantity and
quality. These melons and cucumbers
are sold in good season at the rate of
ten or twenty for two cents; in dear sea-
sons they bring two cents apiece. Float
ing gardens in Mexico are upon much
the same plan, but are usually devoted
to the culture of flowers.

How Watch Cases are Made.

In 1875, thirteen men comprised the
entire working force used in the manu-
facture of the james Boss Gold Watch Case.
Now over IRE hundred are employed, and the
number is constantly increasing. The rea-
son of this increase is this: In the james
Boss Gold Watch Case all the metal in sight
and subject to wear is solid COLA, while the re-
mainder, which only lends strength to the
case, is Of stronger metal than gold,
giving gold where gold is needed, and
strong, elastic metal where strength and
elasticity are needed, combination pro-
ducing watch case better than solid gold
and at oNE-HALF the cost. ~ ..,v

have been sold, and every jeweler in the

was young man of about 22-the
other man Of about 60 years old. One

the other in the southern. Fate had
brought them together. There was
nothing cordial in the greeting. They
didn't cry out: Put it thar and

man grew red in the face and breathed
hard and stammered out

minute the fun was raging. The young
man rushed upon him with warwhoop
but his nose struck something and he
fell down. He gotup and rushed again.
and this time he was flung down. rolled
over, stepped on and left with number

came to hunt for the old man he was

Give Him q Lift.

Give him lift Don't kneel in prayer,
Nor moralze with his despair;
The man 10 down, and his great need.
IL ready help, net prayer and creed.
It's time when wounds are washed and healed
That the inward motive be revealed;
But now, whate'er the spirit be-
Mere words are shallow mockery
One grain of aid just now is more
To him than tones OF sanity lore;
Pray, II you must. within your heart,
But give him lift. give him start.
The world is fun Of good advice,
OF prayer and praise and preaching nice;
But generous souls who aid mankind
Are like to diamonds, hard to End.
Give like Christian, speak in deeds;
A noble LIES the best of creeds;
And he shall wear royal crown
Who gives lift when men are down.
