On the evening Of the 18th there
was a Third Party meeting held at the
Liberty School house, TO be addressed
by Messrs. York and Brown; as they
were otherwise engaged, their APP
pOintments were filled by DOctof
Gillespie. The evening being cool
and pleasant, the house was
well filled by an attentive audience
Of men and women. After the
opening exercises, with pray
and music. they were addressed by
DR.. Gillespie in a concise speech ,prin-
eipally to show the corruption and in
ability Of the Republican party to give
to the nation the much needed re-
forms, etc. And with unwavering f.
deity to the Third Party, lie attempt
ed to show the great necessity Of total
ly destroying the old Republican par
ty, which has withstOod the ceaseless
gatherings Of all parties-both old
or new-for the last twenty-five years;
the party that has given to the PEG
pie the best free school system ever
known, and liberated over 4,OOO, 900
slaves, and gave to the cOlOred man
his human rights, liberty, and protec-
ton by the ballot. He wanted to
make it understood that a Prohibi- |
ton Representative would not be so
likely to get on a drunk during ses-
sion If sent by Prohibition party, as
he would, if sent by the Republican
party. AS it was quite late when he |
began to speak, his address was short, |
and the discussion OF its merits much |
shorter. There was a few Republi-
cans present that seemed unwilling to |
endorse all the Third Party doctrine,
As was evidenced by stirring speech
by one TO the voters, after the dismiss |
sal Of the meeting. While the DR.. |
was delivering his interesting speech,
his minor major accompaniment took
a quiet siesta which afforded an ex-
eellent opportunity to take him in
tout ensemble, also gave an interesting |
study on repOse, which was not lost |
on the audienee,as 1t was largely com
posed Of ladies.

from London TRUTH

From London TRUTH
Prince Bismarck, like Frederick, has
converted his ministers and ambas
sailors into mere clerks, and once b
is gone the whole machinery of his
government and policy will fall into
utter and hopeless confusion. The
crown prince is a mere "dud," and
Prince Herbert Bismarck is simply the
puppet of his sire, who gets on well
enough when he is dancing to his piper;
but he would come to woful grief if he
were himself the director of the foreign
policy of the empire. The military
despotism under which Germany has
groaned for the last twenty years can
not possibly last much longer, and it
would not not have lasted till thepres-
ent day but for the veneration which
is universally felt for the aged Kaiser
There will be a crash in Russia before
long, and, as in 1913, the infection will
at once spread to Germany, which has
been ripening for revolution.

Jones Versus Smith,
from the San Francisco Chronicle.

From the San Francisco Chronicle.1
There is a man in town who is
known as the most interminable of
takers and the biggest of bores Well
call him Smith, meaning no offense to
Mr.. Smith. You can't get rid of him
if he once gets into the habit of seeking
your society. Neither time nor tide is
any consideration to him. He once
fastened himself to Ned Fry, the most
genial soul who ever lived and the
most warm-hearted of men. One day
Ned said to friend when Smith was
freezing on to him:
"I'd give $40 to get rid of that fell
low"
"Will you, honest ?"
II will; $40 in gold"
FrIll find you a man who will rid
you Of him for that amount
"Send him along"
Next day as Smith was filling a
chair in Ned F'ry's office and wearying
Ned's life out, in walked maxwell
call him Jones-and presented a card.
Jones froze to Smith, talked into his
ears and his eyes and his nose, but
ton-holed him, held on to him until
Smith fed. Jones followed him to the
door, talked at him, held on to him
up a dozen blocks, and Smith never
came back to F'ry's office, or bothered
him again. A few days after FRY sent
a little note to his obliging friend;
"For Gods sake take away Jones

A Marriage Fair.
From Donahue's Magazine. ]

from DOnanue,S Magazine.
We have had baby shows and bar
maid shows, but what shall we say to
an annual fair for manageable young
girls? Such a show is of immemOrial
custom among the Roumanians. AS
the time for the fair approaches, the
fathers, whose children are marriagea-
BILE, collect what they can afford as a
dowry. Whatever this consists of, it
is packed, if possible, into a cart or
carriage, and on the appointed day
they all-fathers, children, and chat
tels-start for some trysting- place, gen
orally chosen among the western
mountains of Pennsylvania. When
the fair is opened, the fathers climb to
the top of their carriages and shout
with the whole power Of their lungs.
''I have a daughter to marry. Who
wants wife?' The call is answered
by some other parent who has a son
he is anxious to pair off. The two
parents compare notes, and, if the
marriage portion is satisfactory, the
treaty is then and there concluded.
The young man takes possession of his
wife and all her goods and chattels,
and drives off merrily. If, onthe 9TH
er hand, the match is not equal, or
for some other reason unsatisfactory,
then the parents begin to cry their live
merchandise once more.

THE OLD SONG.
BY OLIVER WENDELL HoLME.

The minstrel OF the classic lay
OF love and wine who sings,
Still found the fingers run aStray
That touched the rebel strings.
OF Cadmus he would fain have sung,
OF Aureus and his line; : ~ --
But all the iocund echoes rung
OF songs of love and wine.
All. brothers! would fain. have caught
Some freSher fancyS gleam
My truant accents find, unsought,
The old familiar theme.
Love Love! but not the sportive child
With shaft and twanging bow,
Whose random arrows drove us WIZ
Some threescore years ago.
Not Eros, with his Joyous laugh,
The urchin blind and bare: {.
But Love, with spectacles and stall u
And scanty, silvered hair.
Our heads with frosted locks are white,
Our roofs are matched with Snow; 80
But red. in chilling winters spite,
Our hearts and hearthstones glow.
Our old acquaintance, Time, drops in,
And, while the running sands
Their golden thread unheeded spin,
He warns his frozen hands.
Stay, winged hours, too swift, too sweet,
And wait this message o er
To all we miss from all we meet
On life's fast crumbling shore:
Say that, to old affection true,
We hug the narrowing chain
That binds our heartS-alaS, how few
The links that yet remainl
The fata touch awaits them all
That t. rnsthe rocks to dust;
From yea ITO year they break and fall
They b. cak, butneveIArust.
Say if on note of happier strain
This WORKOUT harp afford,
One throb that trem bles not in Yaln,' s# 4
Their memory lent its chord.
Say that, when fancy closed her wings
And Passion quenched his fire,
Love, Love, Still echoed from the strings
AS from Anachreon'S Tyre!
