The OLD MAID.

The old maid sits in her chair and she rocks,
While grooming a plant of the old long ngo;
Building a dream and smoothing her locks.
As the shadows OF years Just a shade longer
grow.
Ever about her the sweep Of the tide
OF n world filed hcav'n.high with love and its
glow;
For her but heart-longings and strivings to hide
The wrath Of her hope in the lost long ago.
Who In the wide world divines her dumb PAIN
What seer who may read in the soul meath TINT

Where dolorous uth has traced lines IN vain
To conquer dcrision with pain, patient gracrr

well find this subject to be q Troublesome
puzzle. But in this puzzle one fact seems
tolerlbly clear the preservation ul peace
or the occurrence of war will turn upon
the decision OF Germany. II Russia in
vades Bulgaria and Germany says that
Austria must pcrmi, it, Austria will do so;
and if Austria does not move no other
nation will. On the other hand, If Ger
many should consent to Austrias taking
action, England. Italy and Turkey will
perhaps act with her. Thus Germany
will decide, But what has Germany to
gain by such a war Nothing whatever.
She does not care Tor Bulgaria, and does
not care To see Austria fighting in a quar-
rel likely to be more go England adyan-
tarc than To the advantage of any other
nation But She has. on the contrary,
much Ia lose by it. The emperor is old.
aud the anxietics of an impending war
would suddenly Kill him. Then the Ger
man chancellor would have to take a back
seat, and he does not care To do that. His
interests and his convictions are therefore
strongly for peace.

Since the expiration Of the Robcrts oil
well torpedo patent, which was the only
torpedo with which oil wells could be
legally shot, and out of the patent on
which DIR. Roberts made a fortune Of
several millions of dollars, manufactures
of nitro glycerinc have come into exist
cncc in great numbers in the oil regions,
and are now scattered in anything hut re-
assuring proximity to many towns and
villages. One of the most extensive
nitro glycerine factories in the world is
located between Warren and Kinzua.
At this factory they make 10000 pounds
of the deadly explosive every day, and a
score Of magazines are distributed about
the country for the storage Of the stuff,
which is ready AIMED for use in the
wells.

wagons from the factory, and while mod

ALABAMA CLAIMS COURT PAY.
MENTS.
A Bill In Equity Against Secretary
Manning and Treasurer Jordan.

A bill in equity was filed today by Col. Robert
Christy and Judge Wiltshire as solicitors for
Jerome +. Manning, against Secretary Man.
ming and Treasurer Jordan. 1t recites the SER
vices rendered by Manning in obtaining judg
ments for various parties before the late court OF
commissioners of Alabama claims, alleging
that such services were rendered under agree
ments and powers OF attorney executed with
and by such PERSONS that such agreements and
powers OF attorney have never been revoked,
and by their express terms entitle said Man.
ming TO demand and receive and give acquit-
tances tor all moneys realized such claims
respectively; that si.ch agreements aud pow
ers were made at the time when the rules and
regulations of the Treasury department recog-
ntzed the claims of attorneys TO the custody OF
all drafts issued upon claims or judgments rep
resented by them attorneys. The bill charges
that no such certified list of judgments and
provided for has ever been imrnished by the
state department, and that the Treasury de-
partment has proceeded without authority of
law in issuing and delivering the drafts repre-
senting such judgments; that the name of
said Manning does not appear on the imperfect
transcript on file in the Treasury department..
but does appear on the genuine records on file
with the State department in several hundred
cases.
Daniel Manning, as Secretary oi the Treasury,
and Conrad Jordan, as treasurer OF the United
States, refuse to recognize the attorney lien
OF complainant, or TO deliver the drafts for Gus
tOdy TO him; but, on the contrary, threaten To
deliver such drafts to certain persons unawiuliy,
as he alleges, as substituted attorneys or upon
| request to the payees; such payees being scat
tered throughout the states of the Uni led Staies
and countries beyond the seas. That most OF the
payees are pecuniariiy irresponsible. That ii
Manning be deprived Of the right to the custody
OF the drafts, and the security ter his fees and
for the large expenditures OF money made by
him resulting therefrOnl, great and irreparable
loss will be inflicted upon him. The bill prays
for a temporary restraining order or injunction,
pending the suit, and Tor a decree against the
defendants and each of them, recurring them
him to deliver the drafts to the complainant
and for general relief.
