miss Spinks, | regret exceedingly
that there should have been any mis-
understanding in this matter. Till
this moment [ have been utterly un-
conscious of any such betrayal Of
Of your secrets as you speak of, and
[ am willing now to forget them all,
if you will dry your eyes and be sensi-
ble."
She pocketed her handkerchief and
assumed an air of lofty dignity.
81 need no unconsciousness on your
part, sir; regret nothing that [ have
said; but if any word of mine has
suggested to your vanity that you are
otherwise than perfectly Indifferent
to me, the mistake is your own"

The train stopped We stepped
out, Miss Spinks ignoring my extend
ed hand.
MAY | trouble you to call cab for
me?" she said coldly.
| did so, held the door. open for her,
gave the driver his instructions, re-
ceived grand bow from the lady, re-
turned it with my best air, and saw
her start for the brown abode. Then
I walked home
When I arrived, Mrs. Darcy Dom
vile was sitting with my wife:
The former lady expressed surprise
at my tardy appearance. The latter
said nothing.
Miss Fortescue and the HawtrY
girls are back hours ago, said Mrs.
Domville, "but they did not know
what had become of you"
1 was not going to tell my story to
her, OF give her an opportunity Of
gossiping over it, so withdrew be-
yond range Of her cross examination
by going up stairs to change.
On returning [ found my wife
alone. She showed no curiosity and
gave me no encouragement, but | told
her all my adventures, only emitting
anything that could possibly compro-
mise Miss Spinks. She made no COM
ments whatever.
On the following day Mrs. Brown
called, in my absence, and was closet
ed with my wife for some hours.
When [ came home my wife
was ii tears, but she vouchsafed no
explanation, and refused utterly to
discuss the subject Of Miss Spinks.
The next morning ] called and
asked to see Mrs. Brown.
"Not at home, sir" was the maid's s
reply.
'But [ saw Mrs. Brown at the win
dow" exclaimed in astonishment.

Miss Spinks went back to London

Drunkards' Wives.

There never was time when SYM
pathy, benevolence and philanthropy
were so active as now, but life is still
full Of situations which seem incapa-
BILE of alienation. Take the case of
drunkards' wives, and especially of
those drunkards who develop ruffian-
ly brutality under the influence of
liquor. 1t would seem surprising.
when one considers the suffering Of
these poor women, that there are not
more cases Of husband murder. But
in fact the victims of wife-beaters
rarely seek revenge, and, as rule,
they encourage their tyrants by sub
missiveness which is the despair OF
magistrates and philanthropists Not
day passes but score of trampled
wives refuse to testify against their
brutal husbands, and some Of them
will even perjure themselves rather
than assist the law in Furnishing the
crimes committed against them. A
very startling instance Of this tenden-
cy is the case of the poor woman
whose eyes were deliberately put out
by her fendish husband, and yet who
evidently would not have informed
against him but for the action of
neighbors. And what food Of light
is thrown on the lives of whole class
Of women by the remark Of one of
these neighbors that she did not inter-
fere before because she thought Nc
Carron twas only giving his wife an
ordinary beating" Every policeman
and justice knows that wife-beating
is really as common in certain grade
Of society as this remark indicates,
and probably nearly all these men of
experience would say that it is hope
less to try to stop it, because the vic
Tins nearly always take the side Of
their oppressors in the end.-Neao

YOur Little Child.

The bright girl that God took? All!
you would not have been away so
many nights if you had thought she
was going so soon. Your wife has
never frightened up since then. She
has not got over it. What a pity it
is that you cannot spend more eve
nings at home consoling that great
sorrow. Oh, you cannot drown that
grief in wine cup! You cannot for
get those little arms that were thrown
around your neck while she said
Papa, do stay at home tonight, do
stay at home tonight" You cannot
wipe from your lips the dying kiss of
that little child. And yet there has
been many man so completely over
borne by the fascinations of a dissi-
pating clubhouse that he went off the
night the child was dying Of scarlet
fever. He came back about midnight
and it was all over. The eyes were
closed. The undertaken had done his
work. The wife lay unconscious in
the next room from having watched
for three weeks. He came up stairs,
and he saw the empty cradle and saw
the window was up. He said, 'What
is the matter?" In Gods Judgment
day he will find out what was the
matter. Oh, man astray, God help
you!-Dr. Talmage.
1t was during murder trial. A
witness for the defense was on the
stand. "What do you intend to prove
by this witness?" 'That the prison.
er is insane," replied the attorney.
"Does the witness know anything
about insanity? Is he an expert?''
"Expert?" repeated the lawyer Well
| should say he was. He knows all
about insanity. Why, your honor, he
has been as crazy as loon for the last
ten years"

cans The Evils and How

AeSSSOAC0s
In this age of hustle and hurry, an age
devoted to great projects and enterprises,
the American people are taking the lead
il the furtherance of noble works, and in
the advancement of the sciences and arts.
In these they deserve to take high rank,
and through the united works of millions,
the American continent is fast being
transformed from its untamed state and
being placed on an equality with the older
continents beyond the ocean. The Amer.
lean people arc fast, under these Influences
developing into nervous, energetic race,
remarkable for its vim and business quali
fcations; yet there is danger that in the
course of years these very elements may
combine to the ruination of the physical
character of the people, and leave them
feeble and altogether different from their
forefathers. General debility is now much
more common than formerly, and seems
to be on the increase among the masses.
Many remedies have been extensively
advertised for this widespread complaint,
but none of these have been SO successful
or met with such general favor as the
remedy manufactured by DR.. S. B. Hart
man, and named by him PERUNA.
Mr.. S. S. Goudy, Of Massillon, Stark
county, Ohio, writes: That he has been
troubled with general debility and dyspep-
sia for several years that he was induced
to try PERUNA for his complaints, and
that after using three bottles of the medi-
cine he was greatly relieved. 1t braced
him right up and gave him energy, and
restored him to his youthful vigor. He
ascribes his cure to PERUNA, and says it
is wonderful remedy.
Adolph Bakhaus & Co, Springfield, O.,
writes "We are having good sale for
PERUNA. It sells as well as any medicine
we have, and gives the very best satisfac-
ton"
Mrs. 6. w. Needham, Newtonville.
Clermont County, Ohio, says: have
been a great sufferer for the last six or
seven years, with general debility and
change of life. was very much reduced.
Ihave taken four bottles of PERUNA, which
has restored me to perfect health and
strength. We think PERUNA safe and
grand medicine"

THE SILVER STATES.
Their Population and Voting Power I'm
the United States Senate.

The New York Times is exercised over
the inequality of representation between
the silver States and the Empire State.
IT says: wIth a popuiation of 7s6,593
Colorado and Nevada possess one-nine-
teenth of the voting power of the Senate,
while New York, with population of
5,o82,S71, has voting power of only one
thirty eighth. If representation in the
Senate were apportioned according to pop
luton, Colorado and Nevada together
would have about one-third of one vote,
and New York eight votes. AS it is, in
voting upon the silver bill or any other bill
the two silver States have as much power
in the Senate as New York and Pennsyl-
vania, with population of about 10 ooo, 900.
So far as Nevada is concerned, the vote of
a silver mine equals the vote Of the Empire
States 100000 people. The inequality is
almost as great in Presidential election.
Nevada has one electoral vote for 2o,7ss
people: New York one for 10000. These
figures point to defects in our system that
should not be forgotten when Territories
ask for admission to the Union.

A GRATIFYING EXHIBIT.
The Increase Reported i'm Railroad Earn
ings for January.

The Financial Chronicle, leading weekly
commercial paper of New York, says: A
conspicuous feature of the January exhibit
of railroad earnings is its improved char
acter over all other recent months. Not
since last May have we had showing
that can compare with it in this respect.
Instead of the decrease to which we had
become almost accustomed, the aggregate
of the roads reporting this time shows an
increase of $8,5 900. What makes the bet
ter returns especially gratifying is that the
conditions existing were by no means of a
particularly favorable nature. The change
in the earnings, therefore, is not apparently
a change which is to last for month or
two only, but one with promise that the
Improvement has degree Of permanency,
and is likely to continue unless values and
confidence are again disturbed by some un-
expected event or disclosure.

Revelation of q Religious Crank.

George CAESAR, who belongs to church
in Girard, Ohio, called the "Followers of
Christ" claims that he had vision and
communication from Christ, in which the
latter directed him to offer his fourteen
year-old son as a sacrifice. On the 14th
inst. he he choked the boy, and but for in
reference, would have killed him. Then
he bought hatchet, and dug grave in
the back yard, and when the lad reached
home his father jumped at him with the
hatchet raised, and inflicted a horrible cash
on his head. A fearful stuggle followed,
and the boy finally escaped. Seven gashes
were cut in his body, and it is doubtful if
he can recover. Grassar barred his door,
and walked his room al night spouting
poetry and verses from the Bible. He was
taken out Of the house by force, and lodged
in Jail.

The National Park Bill.

A Washington dispatch Of the 18th inst
says: The bill relative to jurisdiction
over the Yellowstone Park, which passed
the House to-day, is one introduced in the

amendment providing that jurisdiction
over the Park be transferred from Montana
to Wyoming was offered BY Delegate Post
after the bill had passed the Senate, and
was incorporated In It as it passed the
House to-day.

BIG SNOW SLIDE.
The Alta, Utah, Mining Camp Buried and
Destroyed.

The startling news was brought to Salt
Lake City on the night Of the 18th inst.
that the town Of Alta has been wiped out
by an avalanche. 1t has been showing for
week twelve feet deep on the level, and

store are the only buildings which entirely
escaped.
A large portion Of the lost were in the

the City Of Rocks mine and the Ever

Great excitement was occasioned in Lon.
don on the 10Th by the riotous conduct of
a large number of unemployed workmen.
Three thousand paraded the streets, with
banners bearing notices of their griev-
ances. Several bands of music accom-
panied the procession, which marched to
the building occupied by the Local Gov.
ernment Board. The committee broke
ranks, entered the Office and demanded re-
lief for the people they represented. They
demanded immediate employment on the
construction of municipal works, which
they said were needed for the public good.
Officials of the Board refused the commit
tee, al the crowd became bowling mob.
The police attempted to interfere, but
were soon overpowered. The paraders
then invaded Denning street, and stopped
in front of the official residence of Glad
stone. They howled and hissed invectives
against the Government, Cabinet council
was held at the time. The mob attempted
to force their way into the room where the
council sat. The police at this point re-
ceived reinforcements, and elected the in
truders. The mob then attempted to storm
the Admiralty and Home Office, but were
driven off and finally dispersed by the
police.

WYOMING MURDERS.
Graphic Account Given by = COTrespon
-@r" dent,

A correspondent at Yampa, Colo, gives
the Rawlins, Wyo., Ty16nne the following
account of two murders:
A man named Baker and another George
Smith, en- route from Montana, stopped al
Meeteetse postoffice, Fremont county
Wyoming. There Smith got drunk, and
abused his wife, who was Bakers daugh'
ter. Mrs. Baker said to Smith: "George
come and move US out of the sun; it's SC
hot, and the child can't live" He replied:
"If you was my wife I'd lick you, and
will anyway" A Mr.. McWallace, who
stood by, exclaimed: "What brute!
whereupon Smith slapped him, kicked him
and spat upon him. He then turned, and
kicked and cuffed Mrs: Baker. McWal-
lace said to Baker, who was present: 81
wouldn't see my wife abused like that by
any son Of a b." Smith then started
for McWallace, who pulled his gun, and
shot Smith dead, mounted his horse and
lit out. He came to Browns Park, in
Colorado.
Baker, his wife and the widow came to
Rawlins, and started to Meeker, when they
met N. B. Kinnear, who piloted them II

gun. Baker knew the pistol, it having a
steers head engraved on an ivory handle'
and he learned ne was in Browns Park
The dead Smith had brother in Meeker
who went to visit the Bakers, taking Ira
Hamilton and Mr.. Kelly with him. They
learned what had been done, and they
went for McWallace. They found him at
A. H. Bassett's; went into the house, and
sat around the fireplace half an hour, talk
ing to McWallace, who was in his shirt
sleeves. He went out to attend to his
horse, and the three men followed him.
Tim Smith shot him in the back, Ira Ham,
il2on in the breast, and Kelly in the ankle.
The three men then left, and have not been
caught. McWallace died. Ira Hamilton
was foreman for Arnold, and is known in
Wyoming, where $1,000 reward is now Of:
fered for him.
