For Sober Thought.

When sickness, troubles, lay US low
And hold us there,
Can we define whence comes the blow,
Or do we care?
We rise or sink through lack of force
To stem the tide,
And drift along the rivers course
To waters wide.
Perhaps we sink, as surely lost
As vessel frail
BY cruel ocean pillows tossed
In heartless gale
And should we rise by some decree
OF wondrous fate,
From sickness, troubles, well and free,
With mind sedate,
five but pause, give sober thought
To natures laws,
We may discern in troubles wrought
The real cause.
That we have been too negligent,
Had no regard
For laws as fixed as armament;
Hence the reward.

The SARCASTIC WOMAN.-Have
you ever met the sarcastic young wo-
man? No! Well, she is a pest. Ehr
giddy girl, the gushing girl, the lack
adaisical miss are not ornaments
whose loss would cause the world
grief, but they can he tolerated. The
sarcastic maiden should be suppress
ed hy law The school is growing.
Nobody likes the sarcastic girl; ev-
eryhody fears, and many hate her.
Her stock in trade may originally
have been satire, but has long ago
degenerated into impudence, and
with the degeneration has slipped
away her ability to see the difference
between what was and what is-be-
tween satire and impudehce. She
has been fostered in the family cir
Gle and generally stays there. She be-
gan with mild criticisms of hel
friends and ends with lampooning
them. Now she has none, and carl
catnres her acquaintances. Her par
ents applauded her early efforts, and
she retaliates by staying on Their
hands. The family think her brill
liant, young men avoid her, and what
the world knows as sour old maid
is generally thus created. Vdleit3

Since Southern market gardener

Close Up as the Law REQUIRES,

EDS. RECORD UNION am not Prohib-
Zionist, that I am impelled to make these
remarks. l do it simply for the good of the
city and the respect due to the law of the
State. On our statute books there is a pro-
vision which forbids the selling of intoxi-
eating liquors on election day. This provi-
sion is almost universally disregarded in
this city. In fact at the last election
made a tour of J and K streets, and found
every saloon open and conducting business,
with but a single exception. Now, for the
sake of seeing the laws observed, and what
is the need of laws if we do not heed them,
! wish to call the attention OF Chief of
Police Dillman to this provision, in order
that he may instruct his officers TO see that
each and every saloon is closed on election
day, as is required by the law. If this
works g hardship on my Democratic
friends, let them reflect that everything
should succumb to the majesty of the law
If we do not respect it ourselves, how can
we expect our children TO grow up law
abiding? BLACKSTONE.

Clever Trick.

A Sacramentan who has been spending a
day or two in San Francisco, explains the
" true inwardness of the American party
meeting at San Francisco Friday night
which has been spoken of as such spon-
taneous and significant demonstration. 1t
has been generally conceded that the Wig
CLINTON ticket, notwithstanding the " Sc
cesh" procligities of that gentleman, would
draw more largely from the Republican
than from the Democratic strength. That
gave the Democratic leaders an idea: If it
could be made to appear that the new party
had good membership, many more who
hesitated to do so, would join it. The idea
was worked up splendidly. The machinery
of the party was set in motion, and before
night hundreds of Democrats had been
quietly notified TO attend the meeting, to
take with them all they could persuade to
go, and to be sure and be enthusiastic
The boys" did as directed There
were over 5000 people at the meet
ing and the Democratic contingent fairly
reveled in enthusiasm over Know Nothing
sentiments that they would have felt like
knocking man down for if they were ut
tered under other Circumstances. The
whole scheme was 50 neatly worked up that
it was not detected for some time
