Nobody knows OF the work it makes
To Keep the home together;
Nobody knows of the Steps it takes,
Nobody knows-but mother.
Nobody listens to childish woes,
Which kisses only smother;
Nobody's panied by naughty blows,

Nobody knows OF the sleepless caro-

The gossip going around Washington
about the alleged opposition to the re-.
election of Mr.. Carlisle as Speaker OF the
House is nothing but silly twaddle. 1t is
more than probable that he will be re-
nominated without opposition, and re-
elected without difficulty. 1t is gener-
ally recognized fact that Carlisle is the
best qualified and equipped man for the
Speakership IN the House.

1t is said that Blaine's soiourn In New
York was entirely unsuccessful, so far as
winning back any OF the Mugwump voters
is concerned. The fact is thousands of
the reform Republicans are believed 10
be gradually coming into the Dem cratic
party, and coming to stay. They don't
want to go back to rank RepublIcanism,
and they can't afford to stay out in the
cold. 1t seems that the entrance to the
Democratic wigwam stands invitingly
open, while that to the Republican lodges
requires the Mugwumps to crawl hum

that if there are not sufficient induce.

that such law would not tend to en-

About the most stubborn woman the
world ever heard of died in the Peltis
county, Mo-, poor house few DAYS ago.
Her name was Saran Anderson, and one
day about nine years ago she became al
most crazed with anger because Of some
act of the keeper of the poor farm. So
wild was she in her rage that she was
locked in her room alone and left to medi-
tate until the following morning. At
that time the keeper of the place entered
her apartment and found her in bed. She
was not i'll, but she refused to arise.
Days, weeks and months passed, but
never once did The woman leave her couch
unless dragged from il. The medical fra
ternity visited her, and without excep-
ton pronounced her perfectly we'll, but
Notwithstanding this fact she remained IN
bed. Months grew into years without
change, but last spring the woman was
actually taken i'll. She fingered until
death came. She had remained in bed
nine consecutive years because OF ii of
anger.

The Contest for the Central

1t is rather remarkable that 1T cannot
be discovered who the New York capital.
lists are who are trying to buy CONTROL
ing interest in the Central railroads
stock. Nobody who talks for the benefit
of the public seems to know whether they
nave formed a syndicate simply to get
control OF fine property, which is about
the only Southern road that is not loaded
with obligations far beyond its real value,
and to make place for their friend, Gen.
Alexander, or whether their purpose is
TO put several millions OF dollars in
their pockets by schemes we'll known
to railroad wreckers. In fact,
The whole movement in the
CentraPs stock is yet secret, known
only to those specially interested and
their friends. One report says there is no
syndicate, and that only few rich friends
of Gen. Alexander are buying the stock;
another is that the Richmond and Dan.
vile system is the buyer OF the Central's
stock, and this report is emphatlcally de
MED by another, which insists that the
East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia
road is seeking to get control OF the Cen
trails system. No one knows except
those on the inside what TO believe. There
is one thing certain, and that is that the
sock is being bought in New York for
san purpose, ana as pretty high price
is being paid for 1t the presumption is fair
that the purpose is not simply investment.
For several days the statement has been
made that the New York buyers, Gen.
Alexander's friends they are called, have
secured a controlling interest. THIS state
ment is open to doubt for the reason that
the buying continues. II a majority of
the stock had been secured the present
prices would not be paid. The buyers
would wait until they obtained control of
the road before buying any more stock, il
they want any more, when they could so
handle the road as to get the stock at
aboat their own figures.
Their are $4,000 shares OF the Centraps
stock, and 10 the great contest between
Cap. Raoul and Gen. Alexander only
&C 600 shares were voted. The inference TO
be drawn from that contest, and from the
fact that purchases continue TO be made,
is that the New York parties have not
yet obtained majority OF the stock.
The, have more than month vet, how
ever, in which TO make purchases, and
may get what they want before the cleo
ton, which occurs in January.
