TREAsURER JoEDAE's annual report
concludes with sentence singularly
contrasting with the warning of Il
former Treasury official that no human
being could master the secrets of the
Treasury Department and retain his
reason. "1'he Treasury" says Mr..
Jordan, Should be as a house of glass
through which the sun shines to every
nool. aud Granny. There is not . busi-
ness interest in thewhole country which
may not suffer through ignorance of It's
affairs"

Germany's Strongest Man.

There was a wrestling match in New
York recently between Prof. VIM.
Hufer, a well-known scientific wrest-
Ter, and Carl Abs, champion wrestler
of Germany, who arrived q few days
ago. Abs stands six feet, weighs 23O
pounds, and is SO years old. Hefer is
an inch and a half shorter, weighs 100
pounds, and is 2S years old. Abs had
the reputation of being the strongest
man in Germany. He had thrown the
best wrestlers, lifted $50 pounds with
n hand. and carried 1900 pounds up
stairs to harness. The match was Grm-
co Roman, the best two in three. Inside
of two minutes from the first grip Abs
lifted Heller in the air twice in sue
cession as though he was a schoolboy.
In another minute Abs dropped his
man on the stage and rolled on him
and pressed his shoulders and hips to
the mattress, and the fall was awarded
to Abs. The second bout showed the
great superiority Of Abs, and in five
minutes he had his opponent fat on his
back, and was awarded the second fall
and match. 1t is said Abs is the most
powerful wrestler ever seen in America.
Plenty of sportsmen stood ready to
back him for any amount against any
conner. A challenge from the stage for
a match for $500 or 81 900 was accepted
by Sorakichi, the Japanese wrestler.

George Eliot,s Grave,

A London letter records q quaint ex-
%perience in searching for George Eliot's
grave. Entering the cemetery the
searcher came upon o gravedigger hard
at work and unmindful of the presence
of q stranger. Good morning, Mr..
Grayedigger," said the admirer Of
George Eliot. Scarcely raising his
eyes, he mumbled ont "Taornin'."
"W;ll you please direct us" we e n
tured, "to George Eliot's grave
Never card of i'm OF didn't" he lacon-i
ically responded. "Why" we hastened
to inform him, s'we mean George Eliot,
the writer" To this he paused and
leaned on his shovel, and queried: "Di6s
ee live in 'Ighgate, mum? cause there
was a printer chap as died at Michael-
mas as lived up at 'Ighgate way MY
good man. George Eliot was q woman,
not q man; she vas q great literary
character, and wrote under 9 mans
name. Why, all the world knew her.
and she is buried here somewhere

more an that, OF don't think much Of q

roe THE OLD LOVES SAX.

from the Courier-JournL
Tho way, he said, is smooth and green and
There are no thorns to wound and bruise thy
feet;
Where summer reigns, and starlike blossoms
sweet
Bend to the winds low call; thy path is there!
And mine? Alas! no dewy mornings break
Across the valley whore my way hath lain,
And yet, though youth be dead and faith be
slain,
keep thy tokens for the old loves sake.
Above the urn that holds no hidden fame
OF alter fires that long have paled away,
I yet may pause, and in the ashes gray
Read with dim eyes the old familiar name.
Md II some shadowy memory should awake,
Il once again my eyes with tears grow wet,
It in my heart should spring some vain re-
greet,
Nay, do not scorn me for the old loves sake!
As one who sees in old remembered hooks,
With eyes that have grown sad with cease
less tears,
The same glad beauty Of the long lost years,
And hears again the song Of summer brooks,
30 if from troubled dreams I could awake
And feel thy warm soft kisses on my face,
l think the sweetness Of thy winsome grace
Would touch me-only for the old loves sake!

A Young Lady'sA Advice.
From the Witness, Belfast, Ireland.

from the witness, Belfast, Ireland.
Ayoung lady at a party at lexington
the other night gave the following ad-
vice to a young man in reference to the
use of big words: In promulgating your
esoteric cogitations, or a%rticulating your
superficial sentlmentalities, and philo-
sophical, psychological observations, be-
ware Of platitudinous p~onderosity. Let
your conversational communications
possess a rarified conciseness, a compact
comprelensibleness, a coalescent con-
sistoDcy and a concatenated cogency.
Eschew oil conglomerations of fatulent
garrulity and jeiune babblements. Let
your extemporaneous descantings and
unprecedented expatiations have intel
Eligibility, psittaceous bacinity, ventrilo-
quail verbosity, and ~vaniloquent rapid
ty. Shun double entendres, pestiferous
profanity, obscurant or apparent. In
other words, talk plainly, briefly,
naturally, sensibly, Faithfully, purely.
Say what you mean, mean what you
say and don't use big words.

Personal Gossip.

DIR. w. F. Poole, the Librarian Of
the Chicago Public Library, in the last
number of the Dial, reviews the Poca-
hontas story, d~issolving the sole little
spice OF romance which adorns the early
history of Virginia, and proving that
Captain John Smith was an unscrupu-
lous blowhard and little Pocahontas
was q la~scivious wanton.
When Gen. Barrios conceived the
idea of marrying, he marched, at the
head Of his soldiers, to a convent in
Guatemala, where there was q young
and beautiful girl who had taken his
fancy, and demanded of the sisters to
give her up. This was speedily done,
as it was feared that otherwise he
would take her by force and destroy
the convent. This young girl had the
reputation of being the most beautiful
woman in all Guatemala. Barrios car
ried off his prize and married her.
It is not often that the imprisonments
of the law are unsatisfactory on account
Of their shortness, but MI. Eugene
Sullivan of New York City, found his
so last week. Mr.. Sullivan appeared
before Police Justice Duffy as avagrant.

tentiary, said the Justice. This deeply
Disguised and disappointed MIR. Sulli-
van. I'm married to my second wife,"
said he, "and she's turned me ont Of
doors. I don't like to be going in and
out of the Penitentiary. Make it for
life" II can't" replied the Judge re-
gretfully. "Twelye months is the full
extent ofthe law. "I1l give you twelve
months" Mr.. Sullivan left for prison
much discontinued with the parsimony
of the law.
The sublime and the ridiculous were
very nearly connected in a recent duel
near Lyons. Two young men fought
for the sake Of affair lady, but were
such bad shots that, though neither adj
versary was touched, a stray ball killed
an unlucky COW grazing near. The
dispute of honor turned into q dispute
as to who should pay for the deceased
COW, and both combatants fed igno-
miniously from the field.

Hartford Correspondence Boston Herald.

Hartford Correspondence Boston Herald.
The Salvationists earlier in the even.
ing encountered IN angry husband, one
Barber, living in an adjacent town.
He demanded his young wife, who had
fled from home and joined the army.
Blood Washed Willie refused to ad-
NIT Barber to the private rooms Of
the barracks, whereupon he promptly
stood the Salvationist upside down,
smashed in the door, siezed his wife
and carried her away. Another hus-
band has thus far failed to secure his
wife after repeated efforts. She re.
ceiyes HIM, but firmly refuses to go out
again into the world of sin, although at
his last visit he offered to sell a horse,
aud take her on a pleasure trip to Flor
ence. The police at the depot this
week turned back two fine looking coun-
try girls, who had left home to Join the
Salvationists in Hartford. After hear
ing from the officers the character Of
the services and the personnel of the
soldiers of the army, they were fully
satisfied to return.

Thought Twas Only Preaching.

From the Buffalo Commercial
An esteemed friend, one of the cler.
gymen Of Buffalo, writes as follows:
In your Issue Of Saturday last a
sweet Titles tory is perverted into Hard
on the Ministers. The occurrence was
not in Rochester at all, but in Brooklyn,
n the story is not as related. This is
the true rendering: Brother j. Hyatt
Smith, then pastor of Lee Avenue Bap-
list church formerly pastor of Wash
lngton Street Baptist church in this
city,, preached q very impressive ser.
mon, one Sabbath morning about twelve
years ago, on The New Birth in which
he urged that it is an experience not to
be understood till actually possessed,
and then it is known Just as we
know any fact of experience. Among
many striking illustrations, he related
in his wi inimitable way ar occur
renee of his early life. He said:
When l was a child we were very poor
and lived in a little log house. My
brother James, two years older than
myself, was blind. We had no marbles
or playthings, such as other children
have; SO We got some onions and rolled
them upon the floor, while my mother
smiled and piled her needle. After u
little the spray from the bruised onions
began to i~rritate my blind brothers
sensitive eyes, and he instinctively
thrust his little fists, all covered with
onion juice, into them, and rubbed
them vigorously. The juice was fre
to his eyes. and in an agony of pain he
screamed leaping to his feet, and rush.
ing to his mother with uplifted hands
he cried out, not with pain but with Joy,
I see! l seel' The JUICE had cut the
films which had grown over his sight
and they had dropped upon his cheeks
with his tears, and his grief and blind
ness were both changed to JOY. So il
was with this birth from above
Con reaching home his little two-year-
old Nanny crept into his arms, and,
turning her large dark eyes up to her
fathers face, inquired, with peculiarly
tender tones and deep s%olicitude: PAPA.
was it a truly story you telled about
Uncle JamesY Why, yes, my darling
replied Brother Smith. With q look
of great relief she responded: %, /
thought twas only preaching and
quietly slipped from his lap and walked
away with an air Of supreme composure.t

Advantages of Weeping.

A French physician gives a long dis.
sertation on the advantages of groan-
ing and crying in general, especially
during surgical operations. He CON
tends that grooming and crying are two
grand operations by which nature allays
anguish; that those patients who give
way to their natural feelings more spe2d-
lily from accidents and opera
tions than those who suppose it I'M
worthy in a man to betray such symp-
toms of cowardice as either to groan or
cry. He tells of q man who reduced
his pulse from 126 to 60 in the course of
a few hours by giving full vent to his
emotions. If people are at all unhappy
about anything, let them go into their
rooms and comfors themselves with a
loud boo hoo, and they will feel leo per
cent better afterward. In accordance
with the above, the crying of children
should not be too greatly discouraged.
What is natural is nearly always useful,
and nothing can be more natural than
the crying of children when anything
occurs to give them either physical or
mental pain.

but nevertheless being the foolish and
weak-minded clerk he was he set of for

to go to the rooms and speculate with

sum over to his wife to keep. Devoted

March and April, go you way,
You have had your ftful day:
Mlhd and shower, and snow and sleet
MAKE wet walking far my feet
For l come %unsandaled down
FROM the hillsides bare and brown
But wherever l do tread
There l leave a little thread
OF bright emerald, softly set
Like a jewel in the wet;
And make the peach buds turn
Pink and white, until they burn
Rosy red withen their cells:
Then set the bloomy bells
OF this tiowery alder ringing.
And the apple blossoms swinging
In a shower of rosy snow,
As | come and as l go
On my gay and jocund way,
l, the merry Princess May.
