HoADLY,- of CUaI-Oil fame, judging
from the Enquirer report of the recent
Democratic conference al Columbus. is
not a irst-class success AS an "indorser.
This is a SAMPLE of the cold comfort
which he administered to the Senatorial
noodles who were seeking tonic to
steady their nerves after their trip to the
South:
"He said that when the Democratic
Senators were compelled to give up
Fourth Ward, A. in their report, great
many Democrats made up their minds
that the Hamilton county Senators were
not entitled to their seats. He would
say frankly he was OF. this opinion him
self, though he said it in all kindness
and with the greatest esteem for the
Democratic Senators, many of whom he
knew personally. He would say how
ever, that up to the time they left the
State they were indorsed in their manly,
courageous action by every Democrat
As to their leaving. there was, however,
wide diversity of opinion among the
Democrats of the State. mixed up with
a good deal of ignorance. because the sit
nation was not thoroughly understood.
He did not understand it himself They
probably had reasons for going which
were best understood by themselves, yet
if they had stood up and fought for their
places he was satisfied they would have
gone down with the sympathy of the
Democratic people.

Aren't we running about twice as
fast as usual?'

No more so than is customary. I'll

him get on and pay his fare, if | run the
wheels all off and have the cars drag

PARADISE.

o, Paradise must fairer be
Than all on earth excelling;
o, would that l, from trouble free,
We're there securely dwelling!
In Paradise. river clear
OF heavenly love is streaming,
Where every bitter earthly tear
A lucid pearl is cleaning.
In Paradise soft breezes blow
To cool the hearts hot fever;
The pangs and pains that here We know
They watt away forever.
In Paradise, in greenest glade,
The tree of Peace is planted;
The sleeper underneath its shade
By blissful dreams is haunted.
A cherub sentry at the gate
His wakeful watch is keeping,
Lest worldly din should penetrate
To rouse me, sweetly sleeping.
My heart, that shattered bark, will there
Be safe in harbor riding;
Its ever-restless infant, Care,
Be lulled to rest abiding.
For every thorn that gave wound
A rose will there be borne me;
And joy, that here no roses found,
With rosy wreathes adOrn me.
There will all pleasures breath and bloom
That here untimely withered,
And blossoms rare of rich perfume
From arid stems be gathered.
All that was here my hearts pursuit
Will grow from hour to hour,
From tender frond as golden fruit
As summers opening flower.
The blighted hopes that here were mine,
Like wreathes from many far land,
In fragrant bloom will round me twine,
My never fading garland.
Youth, that on rapid beating wing
So swiftly o'er me darted,
And Love, that on morn in spring
One nectar draught impaired,
Wingless and fightless there will be,
And TO their heart will hold me,
And, like a child on mothers knee,
In soft embraces fold me.
And that Divinity, whose light
Shone dime and fitful cleaning,
Whose lovely visage angel bright
only saw in dreaming,
Fair Poesy unveiled will show
Her eyes celestial fires,
While joyousiy my song shall flow
To sound of angel Tyres.
-Ruckert, in Temple Bar.

THE citizens of Grenville, Mich, are
talking about the remarkable fate of
Mrs. Lyons. Eight years ago Abraham
Van Horn bought a farm of her. He
doubted the clearness of the title, and
she was indignant and said: "lf am
trying to cheat you l hope God will
strike me dead" The trade was made,
and Van Horn remained on the farm
until recently, when another man laid
claim to it, saying that he had clear
title. Van Horn at once went to Mrs.
Lyons and demanded that she secure
him from loss. She heard him make his
request, attempted to speak, aud fell
dead. The neighbors say that her pray
eT has been answered.

Professor Jean Jarentski of Paris has
gone to inspect the magnetic wells Of
Michigan. The theory upon which he Is
now at work Is that at some depth there
may be found a stratum Of mineral which
tricity, which may be brought to the sur
face and utilized This theory has re-
ceived partial confirmation in the exist
ence Of magnetic wells In Europe and in
this country. As those of Michigan
are in location which could be used, in
connection with the power, to build man
ufactorios, an essential which none OF
the others possess, q syndicate OF French
men, believers In the theory, has sent
Prof Jarentski here to experiment upon
the subtitle force. The wells ara now
flowing water from the depth Of eight
hundred feet SO highly charged with cleo
tricity that a knife blade or steel bar
held in the water for q few moments be
comes highly magnetizsd The waters
have become celebrated in the vicinity for
their healing power when used for nerv-
Gus diseases or debility. In connection
with their history Is the story that while
under way the drillers were astonished to
find that the string of tools became mag
Detized, and that a steel line used in
measuring the depth became charged,
and it was with difficulty that the well
was put down to the water. The profes-
sor Is confident that at some point he can
find strata sufficiently charged to run
mills and factories independent Of steam
or other forces. Boston Transcript.
