HE e-,nn..
son..

What would we do were it not
for the cranbs? How slowly the
tired old world would move, did
not the cranks keep it rushing
alongl Columbus was a crank on
the subject of American discovery
and circumnayigation, and at last
he met the fate of most cranks, was
thrown into prison and died in
poverty and disgrace. Greatly ven
Grated nowl Oh, yes, Tclemachus,
we usually esteem n crank most
profoundly after we starve him to
death. Harvey was a crank on the
circulation Of blood; Calico was ain
astronomical crank; Fulton was
cranl. on the subject of steam nav
igation; Morse was q telegraph
crank. All the old a5olitionists
were cranks; John Bunyan was Il
crank any man who doesn't think
as you do, my son, is a crank And
by and By the crank you dispise
will have his name in every mans
mouth, and a half completed mon
ument to his memory crumbling
down in dozen cities, while nobody
outside of your native village
viii know that you ever lived.
Deal gently with the crank, my
boy. OF course some cranks are
crankier than others, bat do you be
very slow to snecr at a man because
he knows only one thing and
you can't understand him. A
crank, Telcmachus, is q thing that
turns something, it makes the
wheels 90 around, it insures pro-
gress. True, it turns the same
wheel all the time, AMI it can't do
anything else, but that's what
keeps the ship going ahead. The
thing that goes in for variety, ver-
satility, that changes It's position a
hundred times a day, that is no
crank; that is the weather-vane,
my son. What? You neverthc-
less thank heaven you are not a
crank? Don't do that, my son.
Maybe you couldn't be a crank if
YOU would. Heaven is not very
particular when it wants weather
vane; almost any man will do for
that. But when it wants q crank,
my boy, it looks very carefully for
the best man in the community.
Before you thank heaven that you
are not a crank, examine yourself
carefully, and see what is the great
that debars you from such
an clcctiOn.-Bob Burdettc.

The book buyer, in these DAYS of books
without number, finds the closest discrImi-
nation necessary if he would make profitable
purchases. Much tnat is written is utterly
worthless. More Is fat, stale and unprofit-
Dle Among the leaps of rubbish that come
every week to the critics for review how
ever, few are deserving of lasting praise
and that can be heartily recommended on
account OF their intrinsic value The best
representative OF this select class of liteTa-
tuTe IT has been our pleasure to review for
a long time, is a book entitled Wealth by
the Wayside, or Secrets of Success. 8" It's
author, Mrs. ID. G. Haight, Of OsweRo, has
done vast amount of psinstaking work in
selecting the best that has been written on
the subjects the book covers. and has Dre
sented Is to the reader in a remarkably clear
style. The work Of winnowing is complete.
aud the man who has but little time Tor
reading may here find the best i'm the most
compact and iDteligibe shape A wide
range OF subjects are treated in short ESSAYS
OF about the right length to be read at ore
sitting. Life and death, man, childhood
youth and manhood, woman, love- home
life, boys, associates, sowing wild oats, So
clety, beauty, business, success, and a hun
dred other topics OF like nature are taken
up. Many of these treatises are from on
scure writers, but are hone the less valuable

Judge Horny white Arrested,

The bitter and unseemly controversy
which has been going on for several months
st Indiana, before a Commissioner appoint
ed by the Court, between Judge Harry
White and his brother. A. NJ. White, in re-
gard to the validity Of the will of their
mother, the widow OF the late Judge Thos.
White, eliminated on Yesterday week by
the arrest of Judge Harry White for forgery
on the information of Thomas White, a son
Of A. NJ. White. The information charges
Judge White with altering, changing and
falsifving a certain paper on file in the Or
Dhan's Court OF Indiana county. Judge
White appeared before the Justice and de-
manded a preliminary hearing. which was
granted, and the time fixed for to morrow
We know nothing about the facts in the
case and therefore express DO opinion. The
controversy throughout is a NEST disgraceful
one to all the parties engaged in it, and with
the exercise OF ordinary prudence and dis
cretiOn could easily have been avoided. At
least that is our opinion.

Mr.. George p. Seng, proprietor Of the
Franklin House, on Seventeenth street, Al

pTOvements in that popular hOstlerie since
he took charge OF it. He first put every part
of the house in first class order. insuriu9 the
comfort of bis guests, and now he has just
erected in the rear of the hotel a fine large
stable, in which twenty-four horses can be
provided with comfortable quarters. Huck-
sters and farmers will find at this excellent
hotel every convenience they could wish for.
Parties taking loaded wagons to the Frank
lin House need not unload them at night, as
there is large closed up yard to drive into.
Mr.. Seng's facilities should result in making
his hostlerie very popular with farmers and
