Too Late.

What silences we keep year after year,
With those who are most near to US and dear;
We live beside each other day by day,
And speak of myriad things, but seldom say
The full, sweet word that lies just in our reach,
Beneath the commonplace of common speech.
Then out of sight and out of reach they GO
These close familiar friends, who loved us SO;
And, sitting in the shadow they have left,>
Alone, with loneliness, and sore bereft,
We think with vain regret of some fond word
That once we might have said and they have
heard.
For weak and poor the love that we expressed
Now seems beside the vast, sweet anexpressed,
And slight the deeds we did, to those undone,
And small the service spent, to treasure won,
And undeserved the praise, for word and deed
That should have overfowed the simple need.
This is the cruel cross of life, to be
Full visioned only when the ministry :
Of death has been fulfilled and in the place
Of some dear presence is but empty space.
What recollected services can then
Give consolation for the might havc been?

A REMARKABLE CURE.-I was suffering with
cough and pain in my side for the past two years
and grew extremely weak. During that time
had several physicians attending me, but deriving
no benefit from their treatment. They pronounced
my disease consumption. I concluded to try
Schroeders Iron Tonic, not expecting 1t to cure
me, but merely using it as an appetizer and tonic
After using three bottles I was entirely cured OF
my disease and feel stronger than have for the
past eight years. F. PFAMMILLER,

To Cure a FelOn.

The following is said to be certain
cure for a felon:
Take common salt, roasted on hot
stove until all the chlorine gas is
thrown off, or it is as dry as you can
make it. To a teaspoonful, and also
teaspoonful of pulverized CASTLE soap,
add teaspoonful of Venice turpentine;
mix them well into apoultice and apply
to the felon. If you have ten felons
at once make as many poulticeS. Re-
new this poultice twice day. In four
or five days your felon will, if not open
ed before your poultice is first put on,
present a hole down to the bone, where
the pent-up matter was before your poul-
tice brought it out. If the felon has
been cut open or opened itself, or is
about to take off the finger to the first
joint, no matter, put on your poultice
it will stop right there, and in time
your fingers will get well even if one of
the first bones is gone. Of course it
will not restore the bone, but it
will get well soon.

Webster's CareIessness of Money.
On one occasion Mr.. Webster had
invited some friends to dinner. As he
left home in the morning he requested
his wife to send John down to the office
about ten O'Clock to go to the market
with him. John came down accord
ingly. Mr.. Webster was busy writing.
He asked John if he had any money.
John replied in the negative. Then
said Mr.. Webster, 'go down to Mr..
Burritt and ask him to lend me S.
(Burritt was a stationer in the lower
story.) John came back and stated that
Mr.. Burritt had not$5 but sent him $40,
which Webster took and put in his
waistcoat pocket. Pretty soon poor
woman came in on an alms-asking er-
rand. Il know all about it; you've
lost your husband and have five small
children and nothing to eat. Take
this 7 and he gave her the ten dollar
note which John had borrowed from
Mr. Burritt.
By and by he finished his work and
remarked to his servant: 'Now, John,

through Court and Washington streets
and Dock Square to the Quincy Mark

bought of the butchers at the south end
of the market what suited him, but
made no payments, as he had his ac-
counts with them. At last they reach

about to pass on as before when the
faithful John arrested him with the.

Mr.. Webster, this man is stranger

John, but you gave it to that poor

sarAn old lady over 50 years of age,
and who was once a great beauty, died
recently in Paris, leaving after her a
diary in which she endeavors to show

hours a day at her toilet, which foots
up for the period year 81 days and
6 hours employed in dressing her hair,
powdering, her cheeks, and painting
her lips. From 80 to so the toilet
labors amounted to five hours a day,
the extra hours being consecrated to
the covering of the tracks of time, in
Guiding the obliteration of crows feet

After 50, her efforts had to be redou-

A Starving Woman Commits Crime in Order
to Secure Home in Prison.

ST. LOUIS May 28.-At a late hour last night
young woman giving the name of Flora Downs
broke the show window of John Balland's jewel
ry store and abstracted several articles of silver
ware,t therefrom. She made no effort to escape,
and was Immediately arrested and taken to the
Central Police Station, where she told pitiful
story of want and desperation. She said she
was an Englishwoman from Bristol was
a newspaper writer. and had worked both in
England and Canada. She came from
Toronto to Chicago, short time
ago, but not getting employment in the latter
place, she came here a week ago. She was no

to commit crime that she might be arrested,
and thus obtain shelter and food. She first at
tempted forgery, by signing the name of prom
inent broker here to check, and presenting it
to bank, but this did not result in her arrest
She then wandered about the Streets and Just
before midnight determined to commit robbery
and perpetrated the act above mentioned
She says she wants to go to the penitentiarx
where she will obtain rest and care and her
mind seems to have become morbidly fixed upon
this idea. She was lodged in Jail to-day under
a warrant charging her with larceny She talks
nationally and is evidently woman of educa-

talked with her think her mind is unbalanced,

A NEBRASKA CLOUD-BURST.
A Party of Campers Overwhelmed by Wave
of Water and Several Drowned.

LINCOLN, Neb, May 28-A special to the State
Journal, from Indianola, gives the following par
ticulars of the bursting of water
spout, Tuesday evening. A party of
seventeen Bohemians en- route to Dandy creek,
We're camped at Richman canyon. At dark a
heavy rain set in, and about 10 o'clock water-
spout burst, coming down the canyon in a
wave fifteen feet high. The travellers were all
asleep at the time the food struck the
wagons. One man jumped up, grasped his
wagon-tongue, and attempted to pull the wagon
out of the water, when the wave struck it,
wrestling the tongue out OF his hand
and carrying the wagon out in the
raging stream. He had succeeded in get
ting four children to shore, but before
he could return to his wagon it was carried down
the canyon. Another of the party named Mace.
awoke to find himself sailing down the stream in
his wagon. He saw a tree ahead, and watching
his time, as the wagon passed beneath the
branches, he grasped limb, and, with his wife
and son clinging to him, remained suspended af-
ter the wagon hcd swept from under them. Mace
shook his wife and son off into the stream, where
they were drowned, and then clambered up into
the tree He was finally saved, together with
two others.

THE COMING INDIANA FIGHT.
The Contest Among Democrats for the Sem
atorial Nomination.


atorial Nomination.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WAsHINGToN, May 28.-The recent visit of
ex-senator Mcdonald to this city has revived
interest in the coming senatorial fight in In
diana Governor Gray is said to be an aspirant,
and rumor has it that he will be backed by
Vice-president Hendricks. The latter, however,
has somehow lost favor among Indiana people.
He has, by his course in the distribution of pat
ronage, called upon himself the anathemas of
more than half of his Indiana felow-cltizens
who have been here during the past two months.
Mr. Mcdonald did not come upon political mis-
sion. He had some law business to attend to,
but he had a cordial hand-shake for
every one who called upon him, and, although
he declined to interfere in the distribution of
patronage, he won for himself more friends by
far than Hendricks lost. II is the general inn
preston, and it seems to be very we'll founded,
that the Democratic party in Indiana has SO
arranged the districts that it will be impossible
to elect Republican Legislature next year, and
it is therefore impossible to secure the election
of Republican to succeed Senator Harrison.
Mr.. Mcdonald, if the situation can be judged
from the talk of the Indiana people here, has
the inside track and will be likely to carry off
the prize, in spite of the combined opposition of
Hendricks, Gray, ct al

The scouts have been unable to find Big Bears

were imprisoned by the authorities here,
charged with melting and assisting the Indians
The feeling against them is very strong and the
evidence direct. Reed, the assistant Indian
commissioner has ordered the Indians to return
to their reserves to-day. The Indians charged
with the murder of Frank Smart have been
locked up.
General Middleton has called for non commits

here to volunteer for service in the Northwest

Possibility that the Senate May Have Some
thing to Say in the Matter.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, May 28-Under the caption
"a Political Bombshell,n the Washington Critic
prints the following editorial tonight, which is
extremely important if true:
1.-THE Critic is credibly informed that at the
last caucus held in March, by the Republican
senators, the following two rules in substance,
were adopted, in accordance with their view of
civil-servce reform:
Il. That in case of the removal of any efficient
Republican public officer on the alleged ground OF
offensive partsanshp, and the nomination of Demo-
cratic partisan in his place, that such nomination will
be not confirmed.
-. That in case any Democratic partisan causes
the removal of any efficient Republican and receives
as his reward for causing such removal the nomina
tion to the decapitated official that such
nomination will not be confirmed.
'sThe reasons assigned for the adoption
OF these rules are understood to be, in effect,
that the Senate, under the constitutional
provision of advise and consent is an
advisory body to the executive and with him is
held responsible for the character of the civil
service, and that under the laws of Congress es-
tablishing civiservice reform in the public Off
ces of the country, their duty requires some
such action as indicated in the above caucus
rules"
Very few Republican Senators are in town to-
night and those who are accessible decline to
give any information to the truth or falsty of
the above. They assert that the rules Of the
caucus prevent the divulgence of any informa-
concerning the action of Republicans in caucus,
and for that reason will neither affirm nor deny
the story. 1t is the opinion of others, generally
well posted upon caucus action, that no decisive
action was taken with reference to the course to
be pursued in the matter Of confirming PreSi-
dent Cleveland's appointments; but it was the
sentiment of a majority of those in attendance
that no man who had been in any way parties to
the attacks upon Blaine and Logan shall be con-
irmed.

ment but they are ready to enter into treaty
by which they will become loyal and contented
citizens of the confederation
Rlel talked for long time on the grievances
of the half breeds whom he calls Gods people,
He described the fight at Duck lake. where he
was present. He spoke about the fight at Ba,
toche, and said, with tears in his eyes:-sI saw
my companions killed, my wife and children
threatened with death, and felt this was bad
job"
He declared he did the best he could for his
prisoners
An interesting part of the interview is the re-
ligious creed adopted by Riels council, and given
under seven heads
stitute the true church. Believers in the Lord
Jesus Christ are Christians and all Christians
make the church holy, catholic and vital. We
thus embrace all denominations in our faith.
Second-We do not believe in the infallbility
of the Pope That infallibility dogma of Rome
has done much harm. The prophets and apos
ties were not infallible
Third-We believe in the inspiration of the
Holy Scriptures and the right of every man tt
read and learn the truths they contain.
Fourth-We believe in regularly-ordaine6
ministry We would accept ministers of all
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES Presbyterans
and egationalists-in our ministry with
out re-ordaining. We would be somewhat doubt
full about Baptists.
Fifth-We believe in a form of church govern
ment. We prefer the Episcopal form. We
would like to see a head bishop for the Dominion
or for the new world who would be independent
of Rome. We do not think that the affairs of
the church can be rightly administered so far
away. In fact, Rome has ceased to be the holy
apostolic see. She is now a great organization
of political diplomacy.
Sixth-We pray to God to Christ. to Mary, to
the saints. Three persons of trinity are in
these three first God the Father is perfect and
highest; God the Son is perfect and the Savior;
Mary is pure. but not perfect and in her dwellS
the Holy Ghost.
Seventh-We believe in the final salvation of
all men. Gods mercy will reach further than
mans sin. He will not allow things to go so far
that restoration is impossible. No injury can
be done to a soul which he cannot repair. The
agonies of hell may be endured for countless
ages, but the mercy that reached earth is not
beyond the reach of hell
