Like His Father.

Arkansas Traveller.
The other evening there were several Wis
itors at Colonel Gradson's house. The
Colonel takes great delight in showing Off
his son, and when the boy appeared at the
parlor door, the colonel said:
''Come in, Henry. Speak to the ladies
and gentlemen. All, that's man."
HE is fine little fellow" said Mrs.
Graftney, one of the visitors. "Come here,
my little man."
The boy approached her and permitted
her to lift him ON her lap.

ing commerce has not opened all our ports
the conditions of trade and commercial pur-
suits have been more satisfactory than we
had reason to anticipate at the beginning of
! the year. And in addition to all these
things broader and stronger national
| spirit dwells in the hearts of the people than
for the last quarter of century. The traces
of sectional strife and bitterness are almost
obiterated. Once more ours is a
union of hearts as well as a
union of hands. With this unified
national sentiment comes an increase
in national strength and power. More than
ever to-day as they gather around the an
nual festal board will the American people
have cause to mingle their songs of thanks
giving and praise with the rejoicings of the
family reunions.
But in the midst of all our festivities the
fact should not escape our recollection that
here and there in our midst are to be found
the conditions of poverty. The poor are
always with us. While our own hearts are
filled with gratitude for the blessings
which the year has brought to us, it is ap-
propriate that we should pay some attention
to those who are so unfortunate as not to
have shared in the general bounty. Ii 1t
is natural for generous minds to be
grateful, it is just as natural TO
expect that grateful hearts should
be generous. The sunshine which warns
our hearts and households should not make
us oblivlous to the cold and the darkness
which exist in other hearts and homes.
This above all other days should be noted
| for that touch of human kindness Whlcn
makes all the world akin. AS we have
been blessed in our basket and our store, SO
let us add to the happiness of some less
fortunate brother by contributing from our
own abundance to bless his basket and his
store. And in fulfilling this duty let us not
forget the old aphorism,
When YOU bless the poor make it your intent
To have your blessing in basket sent.

Another Flood ROCK Explosion.

NEW YORK, Nov. 25.-The Herald
this morning has the following: At the
height of the big flood yesterday the people
who live in the neighborhood of Ninety
second street on the New York SIDE and
Second and Astoria on the Long Island
side, were treated to another explosion at
Flood Rock, the noise being greater than
when the great blow-up occurred, and at
some points actual damage resulting. A
good many windows were cracked in As
toria and people on the New FORK side saw
great column of water flung into the air
and felt a very severe shock. At the gov
eminent works in Astoria. it was said that
it meant the demolition of more than an u.s.
ually large section of rock that had not
been smashed at the first bloW-up. No
other journal notes the explosion.

METEOROLOGICAL CHANGES.

In the midst of our Thanksgiving festivi-
ties to-day we should not forget our snow
bound, storm beaten friends who dwell in
the bleak regions of the East. With the
bright skies and clear sunshine of our glori-
Gus Indian summer above and around us it
Is hard to realize that down in Pennsylvania
people are wading through three feet OF
snow, and that all along the Atlantic coast
the wintry winds are bowling. The mete-
geological changes which have taken place
within the last few years are most singular.
Winter has removed his headquarters east OF
Chicago. The cold waves that used to come
down from Manitoba now start from New
York and Philadelphia, with tendency tc
gradually slide southwark. A year or two
later Minnesota will have no rival as a
winter resort. p

CHICAGO, Nov, 25.-Libbie Blew, oc-
cupying rooms in the rear of No. 543 South
Clark street, attempted suicide at $50
o'clock this morning by firing her clothes,
which she had saturated with kerosene Oil.
Her screams were heard by policeman,
who saw the flames in the house and ran
through the narrow passage. The woman,
enveloped in fire, tried to run by him into
the open air, but he threw her to the floor
and smothered the fire in bed clothing.
The furniture and carpeting had caught fire.
The officer extingulshed the blaze with a
few buckets of water, and sent the woman
to the county hospital. She was badly
burned and will die.

WASHINGTON GAMBLING.

An Old Gambler Lamenfs the De-
cline of Playing for Pelf.
Boston Traveller.
An old-time gambler was seated IN the
lobby of Wizards hotel, an evening or two
ago. He looked the perfect picture of
misery. and he said to some acquaintance:
washington isn't what it used to be, my
bovs. The law has killed gambling here,
and when say that don't mean that you
can't gamble if You want to. There are
few brace games of faro still running on
the quiet and you won't have much diff
cultv in finding pretty stiff game Of poker
going on, that is if you are looking after
that style of amusement: but what mean
is that the gamblers are giving Washington
the go-by. 1t isn't the same town that it
was ten years ago, when Johnny Chamber
lin kept one of the most elegant sporting
resorts ever opened in this country. All,
there was game for you! l saw man
lose thirteen 81, 900 notes there one evening
at roulette with as many turns of the wheel.
He made big fuss over it afterwards,
and believe they paid him back a portion

person playing was newspaper HdH WHO

quicker 1didn't know him as well them or
never would have taken my eyes off from
him. He had number of bets placed, and the
little ball was bobbing up and down. Just
as it was about to settle stopped to pick
up chip that had fallen from the table.
1 give you my word, gentlemen. that my
eye wasn't off from the board more than
second, but that was plenty of time for
the newspaper chap. When looked again
there was $50 note on the winning num-
Der. l looked at him and he looked at me.
He was as unconcerned as you please. L
said to him that l declined to pay, but he
wouldn't be bluffed, and he actually skinned
me out of S1.750. That was nerve though.
He told me afterwards that it was my busl-
ness to watch the play, and if didn't

THE NATIONAL DANGER.

1t is to be hoped that the unexpected
death of Vice President HENDRICKS will
have the effect of bringing congress to
realize the danger of longer emitting to pass
law providing for the presidential sue
cession. AS the matter now stands. and as
it is clearly stated by Secretary BAYARD in
his interview with the GLOBE this morning.
in the event of Mr.. CLEvELAND's death,
the country would be in the anomalous
condition of having a government without
an executive head. The failure of the
senate to elect a permanent presiding
officer and the expiration of Speaker
CARLIsLE's term leave the president
without constitutional successor. The
suddenness of Mr.. HENDRICKS death will
probably impress upon the next congress
