Strength for To-Day.


Strength for to day is all that we need,
As there never will be a tomorrow,
For tomorrow will prove but another to-day,
With its measure of joy and sorrow.
Then why forecast the trials of life,
With much sad and grave persistence,
And wait and watch for a crowd of ills
That as yet have no existence?
Strength for to-day what precious boon
For earnest souls who labor!
For the willing hands that minister
To the needy friend or neighbor.
Strength for to-day that the weary hearts
In the battle of right may quail not;
And the eyes bedimmed by bitter tears
In their search for light may fail not.
Strength for day on the down-hill track
For the travellers near the valley;
That up, far on the upper side
Ere long they may safely rally.
Strength tor to-day that our precious youth
May happily shun temptations;
And build from the rise to the set of the sun
On strong and sure foundation.
Strength for to-day, in house and home
To practice fOrbearance sweatly:
To scatter KIND words and loving deeds
Still trusting in God completely.
Strength for to-day is all that we need,
And there never viii be tomorrow;
For tomorrow will prove but another to-day,
With its measure of joy and sorrow.

The Constantinople correspondent Of
the New York Tribune gives very in
! teresting account ofthe way that the rev.
olution in Eastern Roumelia was carried
out. 1t does not appear that any Of the
nationswhich have designs upon Turkey
! suggested the revolution or had any
hand in it. The idea, as far as now known,
was purely local, and this view seems to
be sustained by what took place.
Those who had in charge the work Of
deposing the Governor, Gabriel Pasha,
do not seem to have taken thought
about what was necessary to be done
toward inaugurating new government
or of defending it after it was inaugu-
rated. They appear TO have acted as il
all that was necessary TO be done was to
get rid OF their Governor.
In accordance with an ancient tradi-
ton, which requires that Bulgarian rulers
shall be deposed by a woman, a pretty
girl Of is was selected to depose Gabriel
Pasha. She was dressed in fantastic
costume, such as would answer for a
masked ball, and in one hand carried a
revolver and in the other a sword. At 5
O'Clock in the morning she appeared at
the Governors bedside. The Governor
was awakened from his dreams by the
silvery voice Of the maiden, W no told him
that she had come to relieve her
country OF tyrant, and that
he must arise, get into
his clothes as quickly as possible, and fol-
low her. If the Governor thought
he was dreaming, he was quickly
undeceived by the little revolver
that was pointed threateningly at his
head and by the CLINT OF arms and the
bearded faces that met his startled gaze
in the doorway.
Doubtless the eyes Of united Bulgaria,
as represented in the ripe-lipped, queerly-
costumed maiden, had a far-away look in
them while the Governor changed his
night costume for one better suited for
the emergencies which had suddenly risen
IN his affairs.
When the Governor was ready he dis
creetly and obedlently followed the guard
to carriage, and was driven with the
maiden, who sat beside him with drawn
sword, from the city. The people along
the street who saw the strange procession
did not understand what it meant, and
thought it was fantastic show gotten up
by the Governor for his own amusemet.
The booming OF cannon soon after, how
ever, announced to the people that ty-
rant had been carried from Bulgarian
soil.
What will be the ending of a revolution
that had such a curious beginning?

BLAINE AND HATTON.
The Ex-Assistant POstmaRter's Joke at
the Maine Statesman's Expense.
From the Chicago Herald.

From the Chicogo Herald.
LET me tell you little story about Jim
Blaine and Frank Hatton," said a passenger
from Burlington. "a few years ago Blaine
was out in Iowa making speeches and Hatton
was then chairman OF our state committee,
and Of course went along with as big man
as Elaine to the various meetings They were
on the cars one day going to a country town
to speak at meeting, when Blaine turned to
HattOn and said:

there's man named Chris Schlagle, isn't

Blaine. point him out to me. / used to know
him down in Washington county, Pa
AFTER Blame and Hatton had got upon the
stand, and while some local orator was speak
ing III ton spoke to Blaine and told him
where Schlagle was standing. Blame got up
and marched straight for the man pointed out
to him.
"'HOw are you, Chris?' he exclaimed, hold
ing out his hand. i remember you well.
fou nave changed very little since knew you
down IN Washington county. never forget
race. How is Mrs. Schlaglep
but my name ain Schlagle,' replied
the astonished farmer; my name is Scheiln-
erhorn, and never was in Pennsylvania In my
life.'
Blaine walked back to the platform quite
discounted. Hatton said he had made
mistake, but Blaine looked at him in a queer
sort of way. as If to say: IN get even with
you yet Hatton never shed tear when the
news came last fan that Blaine was defeated"

The ConkIing Interview.

An alleged interview with ex-senator
Conkling was published In the New York
Sun and Brooklyn Eagle last Sunday. 1t
was very interesting interview, and
created a great deal Of gossip, not only
because 1t was calculated TO lessen the
chances OF the election OF Mr.. Davenport,
the Republican candidate fm Governor OF
New York, but also because ft was rather
severe on several Of the most prominent
Of the Republican leaders, notably Mr..
Levi P. Morton and Mr.. James G.. Blaine.
The Republican papers were quick to
inquire Of Mr.. Conkling, VINO, on the day
the interview appeared, was in Washing
ton, whether he had authorized it. He
declared that he had not, but admitted that
a great deal that it contained had been
uttered by him, at one time and another,
in private conversations.
or course, if Mr. Conkling did not wish
any of the opinions expressed in the inter-
vew to appear in print some one betrayed
his confidence; but is it not probable that
he was not as much put out about the
matter az he pretended 10 be? May it not
DO that he was rather anxious 20 have the
interview published without being in any
way responsible for it? 1t is fact that he
bears Mr.. Davenport no good will, and II
he had the power would doubtless gladly
defeat him. Mr.. Davenport spent money
freely and used all the influence he had to
prevent Mr.. Conkling's reelection TO the
Senate when Mr.. Conkling was seeking
reelection as a vindication OF his course
in resigning in such haste. MIR. Conkling
has a great many friends in New York,
and by means OF this interview, which he
repudiates, but which he admits contains
his sentiments. so far at least as Mr. DAY.
export and Mr.. Blaine are concerned, he
informs those who are likely to be influ-
eneed by him that he would like to see
Mr.. Davenport beaten.
II would be pretty safe TO assume that
the writer Of the interview, who signed
himself "Veteran," is not unknown TO
Mr.. Conkling, and that when they meet
there will be no exhibition OF displeasure
on Mr.. Conkling's part. In fact, ii is
probable that neither the Sun nor the
Eagle would have printed the interview
unless they had been pretty we'll satisfied
that it contained MIR. COnkllng's senti-
ments, and that he was not wholly with
out information about the possibility OF
its being published. II is a good political
document, and will have as much weight
with the stalwart Republicans as II Mr..
Conkling had not denied that he author

A curious little story, whose truth is vouch-

told OF Helen Hunt jackson. 1t seems that
before her death friend told her Of poor
woman whose husband had left her with an
infant child to care for, and Mrs. Jackson di-
rected that some articles of her own ward
robe should be given to the object of their
sympathy. The woman in her gratitude
gave her daughter Mrs. Jackson's name.
After her death the poor woman took up her
child one day and calling it by name SAID:
''Oh. my little girl, the lady who was so good
to you never saw your sweet face. and she
never knew how loved her " At that mo-
ment, the woman related. a hand was laid on
hers, a sweet, mOtherly face bent over her
and said: 81 am not dead, l am here" The
woman had never seen Mrs. jackson. but she
described her perfectly in feature, voice and
