Where the Better Glasses Rule.

CMcagO HtTaiu.
Rhode Island is the only state in
the Union that is absolutely ruled
by the "better classes"-that is, by
the people who have the most mon
ey. The property qualification there
DISTINGUISHES about One-half OF the
men over twenty one years Of age,
and thus deprives them Of voice in
the conduct OF affairs.
What Is the result? The working
people OF Rhode Island are tho most
helpless human beings on the face Of
the earth. They are governed and
employed by the rich and they take
what the rich are pleased to give
them. They live in houses provid-
ed by the rich. buy their goods with
orders at stores kept by the rich, and
find themselves ut the end OF each
year exactly where they were ut the
beginning provided they have not
sunk into still lower depths Of pow
erty. They may go down but they
cannot go up. II that il not slavery
what is? African bondage at the
South produced no more shocking
horrors than white:corpcration slave
~ produces IN Rhode Island. A
family that would live must work to
its last member, feeble grandparents
and the tender children. II they are
delivered from their bondage relief
must come from without. They
cannot get money enough together
themselves to move away from theil
oppressors, and there they live and
die.

night, q few weeks after her return, we
were startled by the drumming of O
banjo under Helenore's window, soon
joined by a lusty voice bawling out
right heartily some foolish ditty we
heard in the streets.
/ sprang up at once. "Jaok," said
I, "that is Helenore's Eloi; I know it !"
I went quickly to her room-she had
not yet retired for the highland when
I opened the door she was standing like
a STATUE by the bed. She turned as /

to come in"
"Wait, wait" she said mysteriously;
and seizing her "music"-the paper
horn-she leaned far out OF the window
and blew blast upon blast of her most
unearthly, strains, which added to the
roar of her lovers voice, produced an
effect indescribably strange and ludic-
rous.
We concluded that he had heard those
sounds before, otherwise at the first

and run away.
Elias Rodgers-for that was the
young mans name-was in truth q
Yankee man, as Helenore claimed, but
he had lived much among the Cana
dams and spoke their language like his
own.
We found that he was honestly in love
with our Helenore; and rough and
coarse as he seemed, he doubtless had a
romantic, sympathizing nature, o he
could not have understood and appre-
ciated her as he evidently did. We were
relieved to find him in every way SO
worthy of her and so suited to make her
happy.
And now my story is soon finished.
Helenore left us again, but this time
with happy smiles and the hope of see
ing us very often. In short, while /
write, she sits out on our piazza with
her own baby in her arms, aud my Ned
grown now to be quite a big boy
leaning on her lap. She is telling him
what he shall find when he comes to see
her and Eloi in the woods where they
are chopping-birds' eggs to add
to his collection. ooh, so many kinds
But they will only take 1e from each
nest, because the mothe. biri would be
sad and grieve."
Her heart is tender as of yore, but it
never aches now except for others woes.

The Cold Snap Felt Up in a Balloon

Gold? Well l should say So" SAID
Sergeant Hammond, Of the United
States Signal Service Department,
when questioned about his aerial voyage
with Professor Samuel A. King. "We
wore two suits of clothes and plenty of
o~Yercoats and fur gloves, but it was
swapping cold away up there. We
hardly expected to start, on account of
the temperature, but the balloon linz
bered up in the afternoon, and we de-.
cided to try it.
How did / stand the fight? l was o
bit rvou as we began to shoot up and
my heart was uncomfortably near my
mouth, but that wore off in a few min
utes, and / was able to take observa-
tions and look over the side. We got
up only $500 feet on account of ap-
preaching darkness, though we expect
ed to rise a distance of two miles. The
scientific result was Disappointing. We
started too late. / took readings of the
various instruments at different heights
on the way up, but was unable to see
the instruments on the descent because
of the darkness. The next trip we
make / ara going to have an electric
light along, so that it shall not matter
if we are up all night, as far as reading
the instruments goes. "-Philadelphia

Yes said Bob.
"Who was she?"
Robert hesitated, but finally blurted
out, "I thought it was Annie Warren,
but when we got to the turn of the road,
she went into Ellen Hams house."
"But / should think you might have

father.

Vanderbilt Retiring from Wall
). Street.
From the New York World.

From the New York World.
William I'll. Vanderbilt is living quiet.
". He is now leading a thoroughly
retired life, whether he keeps it up OF
not. He does not go once a month to
the Grand Central depot, where the of
fees of most Of the railroads called the
"Vanderbilts" are located. When he
does go it is not to investigate anything,
but to look around the old place. and
have little talks with some of the officers
for want of something better to do. His
son Cornelius has stepped into his shoes
and manages affairs for him so that he
does not nowadays have q care or task
of any kind to disturb the sven tenor
of his way. Cornelius gives all his
time to his duties, and is q very hard
worker. In the management of the
New York Central and Hudson River
railroad William III. Vanderbilt is now
merely q director. He does not
serve on any of the committees
even, and the affairs of the COR
poration are managed entirely without
his help. OF course, if any important
step is to be taken, he is consulted, and
Cornelius speaks for him when the time
comes. Vanderbilt is out driving or
walking every afternoon when the
weather will permit of it. He goes out
to dinner often, and evenings, when he
is at home, he spends the time talking
with friends who drop In. He does not
expect to WELD the great influence in
the stock market that he once did. A
friend said to him a day or two ago.:
"Rlr. Vanderbilt, you are not credited
with doing anything in the market now
adays. is that true? ?"
"Yes." replied Mr.. Vanderbilt. "The
boys are nos going to speculate any
more, and I have no Intention Ok setting
them q bad example"

-
six Thousand Feet from the Light Of
Day.
What words are to be used, unaided
oy pencil or brush, when one seeks to
describe what the canon of the Colorado
river really is? It's magnitude, its
solemnity, the awful depth, the rushing
waters, the towering cliffs, all speak to
us, but we can not speak of them. Man
is dwarfed by nature, abashed by her
grandeur, silenced by the exhibition of
her powers. Imagine the scene A
yellow-hued stream, rushing like q gust
Of angered wind along a rock-strewn!
bed and between a line of dark-hued
cliffs. Look upward a thousand feet,
and rocks look angrily down; gaze up
another Thousand feet, another, and
still another, and there are the same
dark browed monsters glaring down
upon you and upon the river. Look up
again and now gaze for 5000 feet into
the air toward the heavens, and you can
still see rough-edged rocks, all outlined
against the sky, oyer O mile in height
away, throwing up pinnacles and towers.
and domes and isolated peaks, Clipped
and SCARED, and dark, massive and
irregular. The light of day is iimmed,
the place is full of loud, hoarse roars,
the air is chilled, and the river, dashed
into foaming fury, leaps madly along
its course. Here are shadows that
Rembrandt would have gloried in; here
Dore might have copied nature and
Dante's sombre halls. One stands
within the very bowels of the earth,
with all light and brightness lost to
view. He sees the work Of ages, the
result of a mighty power. The earth is
cleft in twain; it is as though a noun
tain, tall and strong, had been halyed by
some sharpened sword. Six thousand
feet of stony depth Six thousand feet
beneath the light of day There are no
pleasant smiles of nature to he seen.
No flowers grow, no shrubs appear, no
birds are visible. Dark are the tower
ing walls, and darker still their shadows,
while the towers take on most uncouth
shapes, and the river runs out OF black.
ness to MS and into darkness from us. q
puny monster in comparison with it's
prison, q hayward child held in stern
rebuke.
From the tops of the cliffs which
form the Colorado's canon the river
winding at their base is like a strand
of gold. But it needs strong nerve to
look from the great height into the
depths below. Drop a stone and the
splash it would make upon striking the
water could not be seen. Even the
noise the river makes is not audible,
and the stream seems to flow noiselessly
along its dark and rugged course.
Turning from gaze into the canon, and
looking about the country, the deep
rent is seen stretching far away to the
east and west, while in the distance are
tall trees and rocks and bare brown
hills. One questions why the canon
was made and how-whether worn by
the river or formed by volcanic action.
But whatever the cause, it is q strange
freak of nature, rivalling, with It's
grandeurs, all other sights, inviting
comparisons but challenging compe-
tition. All other canons of the wild
Southwest, where rivers delight to wind
in darkened places, sink into insignii-
canoe when compared to this OF the Rio
Colorado.

Money for Wedding Presents.
From the London Truth,

From the London truth.
Among the wedding presents scnt to
the Rev. Stephen Gladstone I notice a
couple of checks for 9100, given by the
Duke of Westminster and Sir Andrew
Clark, respectively. / cannot help
thinking that the example Of the duke
and Sir Andrew ought to be widely fol-
lowed. especially when the bride and
bridegroom are not too we'll endowed
with this worlds goods. When a COM
paratively poor man marries he is gene
rally overwhelmed with all sorts Of
elaborate and useless articles but very
few people have the common sense to
contribute in cash instead OF in kind.
Surely even a ive-pound note is an in
definitely more servieeable present Than
a piece Of plate which requires constant
cleaning, or q china vase which IL cer-
tain to be smashed by q careless house
maid.

and she always received their applause
with much dignity and as a matter of
course. But there was one thing about
thls instrument, very remarkable and

IL seemed to be solely for the sake of
giving vent to some powerful emotion

q no high tones. I think she con-
sidered them too light and frivolous to
convey the feelings OF her soul.

answered, laying her hand upon her
heart; and | was glad to believe that in
those low, deep tones of hers, SO tremu-
lous and 80 solemnly sweet, the strange
poetic Soul of this poor untaught crea-
ture found full expression and was
satisfied.
She sang her w words generally,
and they were without connection
senseless iumble-and yet as she sang
them they often possessed a weird and
startling significance. Here is one OF
her songs:

they were the same persons we had in

think that il any case We were well rid

But we missed her and we mourned
