Bingham would be by all odds the strongest
and best man they could nominate for
Mayor.

a snI,r 10 lsriNr.

The foreman says he needsa long joke to
fill down this column with. This IL very
unfortunate; We haven't any joke, but the
foreman comes Ia like the aut.crat OF Rus
sia, and, in ghoulish glee, cries for jokes,
jokes, when there are no jokes. Funny that
the foreman should always come in hungry
for jokes just as we are writing up the pa
tEetic part of an obituary or deep In some
poetic rhapsody on the beautiful snow.
But then, that's just the way foremen always
do. When you feel as gloomy as hemlock
in graveyard, they come In and want you to
be funny another stickful. D, worthy fore
man, 1t is better to fill down column with
patent medicine puff than with a joke that
is made to order, or one wrought out In
trembling beneath your wlthering eye. OF
hOl hal ha! ye cruel foreman! here is the
column filled down, and you didn't get
your joke after all.--[Lynn Union.

GIVING AND LIVING.

Forever the sun Is pouring its gold
On hundred worlds that beg and borrow;
His warmth he squanders on SUBMITS cold
His wealth on the homes OF waat and sor-
row,
To withhold his largess OF precious light
Is to bury himself IN eternal night
no give
l. 10 live.
The flower shlnos not for itselfat all,
Its joy Is the Joy IL freely difuses.
OF beauty and baln II is prodgl1,
And II lives In the light II freely loses.
No choice for the rose bus glory or doom,
10 eXhale or smother, TO wither or bloom.
TO deny
Is TO die.
The seas lend silvery rains 10 the land,
The land It's sapphire streams to the ocean;
The heart sends blood to the brain Of com
mand,
The brain to the heart its lightning motion;
And over and over we yield our breath,
iii the mirror is dry and images death.
To live
Is TO give.
He Is dead whose hand Il not open wide
To help the need Of human brother:
He doubles the length Of his liloluls ride
Who gives his fortunate place TO another;
And thousand million lives are his
Who carries the world In his sympathles.
10 deny
is todie.

She was a bright, attractive-looking
widow, and tho stiffness had not yet de-

A NOVEL WILL.
Curious Manner of Determining
Children's Professions.

Curious Manner of Determining
Children's Professions.
PHILADELPHIA, June 13.-The question
of determining the validity of the will
Of A. ID. Ditmars, wealthy widOwer of
Lancaster, who died in June, 1888, came
before Judge Butler IN the United States
Circuit Court yesterday. The will, which
was peculiarly wOrded, after providing
for the payment OF several legacies, dis
posed Of the residue Of the estate, amount
ing to about SS0,0O0, under the following
singularly wOrded clause: 1.-The remain
der of my estate bequeath to be used in
means TO ascertain what children were
created to do, that the child may be
directed TO and Instructed in what he or
she Is best adapted to do"
MIR. Ditmar's idea was to found an insti-
tuition for the instruction of children. One
or It's features was room containing
musical instruments, tools used IN the va
rIOus trades and other appliances. When
a child was brought to be entered into the
institution it was TO be taken into this
room and its actions observed, If the
little ones inclination led it to the musi-
cal instruments IL was to be educated as
a musician. II its desires tended toward
the plane and the saw a carpenters trade
would be taught II, and so on through the
list OF occupations.
The testatOr's ideas were very novel,
but it was claimed that the instrument
faded TO show what his actual Intentions
We're. The paper had been admitted TO
probate In Lancaster county, and DR..
William Compton, who was named as eX-
ecutOr in it, had assumed his duties, but
Harriet Rappelye, Of New York, a sister
OF the decedeut, took au appeal.
The litigation then took the form Of a
suit, in which the doctor was the plain
tiff and Harriet Rappelye the defendant.
Counsel for DR.. Compton stated 10 the
court that they might call some witnesses
to raise the question Of the dccedent's
SANITY, still the uncertainty of the terms
OF he bequest probably rendered it void.
Judge Butler said that they were correct
in this, aud in charging the jury said that
the bequest, though prompted by a chari-
table aud benevolent purpose, was
cOuched in terms that we're IN themselves
evidence OF an unsOund mind, and their
uncertainty would prevent the executor
from carrying out the bequest, as no court
could direct him how 10 do so. The jury
then, under instructions of the court, rem
dered "a verdict against the Will.
