A Warm Place to Sleep.

Perhaps you never stopped TO think that in
a city like Chicago live good many people
of various sorts who are able to enjoy no
greater comfort, no more delicious luxury,
than warm place to sleep. Thinking the
matter over You will doubtless perceive that
anything like happiness or contentment
without snug, warm place TO sleep o. nights
is impossible Given fine raiment, rich food,
good health, wealth and all of the pleasures,
delicacies and luxuries which money can buy
or youth and yigor can enjoy-all would be a
mockery without warm place to sleep. The
prisoner in solitary confinement, the con-
demned man in his cell, the pauper in a
charity bed the hopeless invalid on couch
that is never to be left save in death, is
favored by fortune compared with him who
possesses no warm retreat at night, who has
almost forgotten what it is to sleep without
an accompanying nightmare made up of
cramps, chills and icy specters. If any living
mortal deserves the pity and charity of his
fellows it is the one whom night makes home
less, who has door after door shut in his face,
who is cast out from the habitations of man
to shift for himself like a wild beast. All
this is what a policeman meant to say when
he thus chatted at the west end of Madison
street bridge:
@What are those chaps doing there on the
sidewalk next the -four millf Gittin' warm
Some of ems tramps who haint got no money,
some's newsboys and bootblacks who'd rather
spend their money goin' to the theaytres than
for lodgin's, and sSmes fellers in tough luck
No matter who they be an what brought 'em
here, haint got the heart to drive 'em away.
You see, there's big steam boilers right under
the sidewalk there, and those CRATES are regular
hot air registers. Go stand over there AM see
how warm it Is. Some of 'em sleeps there all
night, an mighty glad Of the chance, too.
Them cold nights we had 'em piled up there
two OF three deep. When it's real cold man
can't warm but one side O hisself at a time
there, but the boys took turns actin as

--. o -.
Recently the Government of the
United Kingdom made up It's mind to
put down the National League. 1t be-
gan proceedings towards carrying out
this design by arresting John Dillon,
the most loved, perhaps, of all the Irish
Parliamentary leaders. His case has
been called in court, and adjourned,
the reason of this being, as is rumored,
that eminent lawyers have instructed
the Government that there is no law
existing under which he can be con-
victed.
Dillon has been exceedingly busy of
late, melting tenants to stand firm for
''fair rents and free homes. He is an
eloquent man, and his words have
great weight with the Irish people, who
reverence his superior ability and adore
his amiable character. Unlike most
of his colleagues in the work of politi-
cal agitation, he is wealthy man. He
is the son of a rebel of 1S4s, John
Blake Dillon, who practice1 law sub
sequently in New York, and afterwards
was a country gentleman IN ireland,
and sat in the Parliament House at
Westminster. John was a quiet and
studious lad, delicate IN health, as IN
deed he is vet. His father gave him q
superior education. After the compile
ton of his academic course, he studied
medicine and holds diploma. Hav-
ing no need to earn money as a practic-
ing doctor, he spends his time in writ
ing, speaking and attending the sessions
of the House of Commons, always as
the interchangeable servant of his coun-
try. John Dillon has twice undergone
imprisonment at the hands of the Gov
eminent authorities. His health was
greatly injured by the confinement and
he was obliged in consequence to dee
cline for while seat In Parliament.
He is now comparatively strong again.
Mr.. Dillons black hair and beard
frame a face which, as one of his adj
mirers remarks, suggests In It's outlines
and expression that given to the sacred
person whose true lineaments have
probably never been portrayed.

THE GOOSE BONES PROPHECY.
A Farmer Says 1t Promises an Open
Winter and a Good Wheat Year.

A Farmer Says 1t Promises an Open
Winter and n Good Wheat Year.
You may depend upon il, i" said Rock
land county farmer to reporter last week,
1--WE viii have an open winter and good
wheat year. the goose bone says SOL The
goose bone is accepted by many Rockland
county people as better authority than Wig
gins, or their Hackensack friend, De Voc.
In many farm houses it will soon be found
hanging in the hall, and upon its predictions
some men place the fullest reliance.
The real prophetic bone, it is claimed, can
only be obtained from goose that was
Matched out In the spring, and the goose must
not be killed until the Indian summer has
passed away. A bone taken from q goose
hatched in May last year has row of dots
around the keel Of it, indicating the tenn
perature; and the darker the spots the
colder the weather 1t is claimed that
the marks dividing the bone IN
dicate the three winter months, De-
cember beginning at the front. Those
who have read this years bone carefully say
it indicates more regular weather than that
OF last year, and not 50 severe There win
win not be many days during which running
water win freeze. The coolest weather win
occur during the first half Of January. and
in that time there win be several DAYS az
freezing It win be the severest part Of the
whole season Near the point Of the bona the
discoloration is q little heavy, thus showing
that the first day Of winter win give proof of
the seasons change This win be followed
BY rising temperature ard falling weather
Tor Christmas
january win Be ushered in with cold and
the cold win strengthen As the days lengthen,
the coolest day Of the winter being Jan 4
