Remarkable Faith Cure.

A Pittsburg dispatch to the Phil,
adelphia Press says: Miss Mary
Moorehead, eldest daughter Of the
late General J.K. Moorehead, and
a lady of finest culture, processes
to have been cured by prayer and
faith of a disease from which she
had suffered for thirty years, and
which, many years ago, was pro-
nounced incurable by some of the
best physicians Of the country.
Miss Moorehead has frequently
been confined to her bed for months
at a time. Last summer she was
taken to the mountains, unusually
weak, where lady friend induced
her to try the faith cure. She ac>
cepted the suggestion, refused even
the simple preparations that had
been prescribed to relieve the in
tense pain which she sometimes suf-
fered, and prayed literally almost
without ceasing. She said Monday
that she believed implicitly from the
beginning in Gods power to make
her we'll and good, and her prayers
were answered. Miss Moorehead
grew better soon after she began to
pray. The Improvement was gradu~
al at first, but it is now several
monts since she has felt pain, and
she says she is stronger than she
has ever been before. She regards
herself completely cured. She has
decided to remain at home each
Monday to receive persons who may
call to learn Of her case and adyise
with her as to faith cure. She has
been doing this for more than a
month, but it is not until Monday
evening that she consented that the
facts lin her case should be made
public"

He is in Trouble.

The Arizona editor has got into
trouble. He explains it thus: "We
edit our paper this week from the
jail, where we are are living for the
present. We have been put IN the
jug for a month because We resent.
ed an insult offered us by the pina
feather journalist who tries to run
an opposition paper in this town.
But if he thinks he will muzzle the
press in that way he is mistaken.
Like Edmund Yates, we shall come
out of Jail stronger than ever, and
shall take our place In the world
with renewed vigor and strength
A month is not a long to man
with a good conscience, which is
our case. We would request our
friends to turn in all items of news
to the gentlemanly iailor, who will
give them to US.

A Practical Joker.

A San Antonio, Tex, special
says: Mrs. Jesusita, a wife Of only
two months standing, fell in love
desperately with the clown of the
Mexican Circus, perfosmlng in this
city, and eloped this morning in the
direction of Mexico. The husband
thinks it good joke ON the circus,
which has temporarily suspended
on account of the loss of the clown.
This is possibly the best joke the
clown ever perpetrated.

The arrangements for the es-
tablishment Of an Irish colony in
Utah are now complete. A tract Of
one hundred thousand acres has
been secured. Mr.. John Dillon,
the late member of Parliament for
Tipperary, who accompanied Mr..
Parnell through the country, has
thrown himself into the scheme
with great yigor. At first it was in
tended that the settlement should be
exclusively devoted to Irish immi>

be allowed to pay for the land they
occupy as soon as they can.--Chica>

A DAKOTA BOARD OF TRADE.

a member of the Cleveland Board of
Trade, who was in Dakota last fall, hap
pened in town on the line of railroad,
which only had one wheat elevator. In
conversation with the owner of the
elevator, he inquired
WHO makes the price on wheat
here?"
Our Board of Trade was The re-
ply.
$50 you have Board of Trade. ch?"
well, good enough one for such a
town as this"
'How many membersP'
only two-myself and clerk; I'm
the bear and he's the bull, and between
us the market is kept pretty lively"
But suppose the farmer doesn't want
to sell at your figures"
That never happens. Being as we
are the Board of Trade, and own the
only elevator, and being as he is head
over heels in debt, and must have mon
ey, the market may be quoted as
steady."

A GRAND DEED.

"Did YOU ever accomplish anything
in your life that might be called grand
or noble-somc action that would dis
tinguish you from your fellow men and
TO which you can now look back with
pleasurable emotions?" was the rather
clumsy question put by visitor 10 a
state-prisOn convict.
The poor convict muscd for a moment
and then replied:
"Yes, / have. ! once did a grand
deed that gave me distinction of a GER
tain sort, butt he added bitterly, 81
cannot say that look back upon II with
any pleasureable emotions. "
II am very sorry" returned the Wis
itor, who was a good man, that you
cannot find pleasure in its contempla-
tion. II might afford you blessed con-
ISOLATION in this your hour Of trial and
darkness. May | ask what this grand
deed VASE
YES, you may" replied tho poor
prisoner, while his voice became chokrd
with emotion. 1T was grand larceny"

'Why, you silly fellow, it means that

before they made this discovery, and
that you loved me in spite of what peo-

only manage to say:
why, did you know what they said?'

height, and looked him proudly In the

He began to realize it then, but still
you can imagine that he felt rather
awkward.

terrupted him.
"No, Con, I'm not. | don't want the

And then she stopped, the violet eyes
dropped, and Con was himself again as
he stopped toward her saying:

you, too, for security"

MY SAILOR LOVE.
BY BRAD CoURTLAND.


As I stood alone by the old sea wall.
A memory came TO me; l u44
sighing in the sea-bird's call.
And the shadows dank and dree.
a memory dream of wlnsome lad,
, My lad with the sun-spun hair;
And my love was like sailor clad,
And bonny and brave his air
For he was going beyond the sea,
To sail meath foreign sky,
TO leave his love and his "ain countree,"
And this was his last goodbye
II shall sail me far under many moons,
And many a day will pass,
AS drift about in the fierce monsoons,
Ere we meet again, my lass.
81 shall sail me far and sail me fast.
With many a clustering wind.
But naught to me will be storm or blast,
For the lass leave behind
"Will be looking seaward from morn til
night,
And maybe prayer will go
A drifting out in the dew mists white,
That diamond the alter-glow."
Then he drew me close and closer still,
And pressed his lips on mine;
Then was alone. save the song-bird's trill-
Alone in the still starshine.
And away far down the harbor bar,
Where the night mlsts fell so dree,
There came CLEAN like fallen star
From the lght-sbip out at sea.
I strain my eyes o'tr the crumrled foam,
Where the light-ship. faint and far,
Glimmers anon in the twilight gloam.
Like the sparks of broken star.
But that was years and years agone,
And many amber moons
Have drlftcd adown the sky, but none
Have lulled the fierce monsoons.
For my dear brave love with his sun-gol
hair,
All, hush! so the sailors say,
Under the amber moons still flare,
Driited far away!
And am alone on the sca-walk old,
With the shadows dank and dree,
And my brave sweet love lies still and cold
Under the frozen seal
