Touched An q Tender Spot.

One Of the most pathetic sights have
seen in long time saw the other after
noon. An oldish man stood on the cor
ner of street, with eyes cast down and a
look of agony on his face. lie was slghing
heavily as he poked thick stick into cracks
and breaks In the asphaltum, which was
terribly open to such poking. He seemed
picture when a friend came up.
"What's the matter ~
"Look at that poor old fellow" | said.

block, and he's got to put down a new

Tom Scott's Fate.

Washington Cor. Cleveland Leader.
A friend OF Tom Scott, the noted
President of the Pennsylvania Rail
road, told me recently how Scott's.
choosing of railroading as a profess
sion hung on the Tipping OF a penny.
Said he: .'Tom Scott told me the
story himself. He was the toll col
lector on the Pennsylvania Canal at
Columbia, when the railroad authori-
ties, hearing that he was bright
young man, offered him the position
of station agent at Altoona. Scott
was popular, and when he told his
friends OF his offer they urged him to
refuse it and stay on the canal. He
resisted their opportunities, but
finally taking big red copper in his
fingers, said: Boys, l will let the
fates decide. Heads is Altoona and
tails Columbia He then threw the
copper into the air with a twist which
sent it into dozen somersaults, but
it fell and the head was uppermost.
The boys then said that one trial was
not enough. 1t must be the best two
out of three. Scott consented to this,
and threw once more. His next throw
was heads, and SO the railroad won.
Had the copper fallen on the other
side, who can tell what the future
would have been?"

WHITE AS SNOW.
Geo7ge Weatherly, in the Culver.

ieosge Weatherly, in the Culver.
From morning until evening
I he 80 sought for peace and rest
Rest for a weary spirit,
Peace for a troubled breast.
But vain was all his seeking
From dawn till set OF sun;
His sins lay heavy on him,
And comfort there was none.
Then, in the gathering twilight.
He knelt him down in prayer.
And the stars shone in upon him.
And smiled upon him there;
And while he told his Father
VI sin as black as night,
The pure white snow fell softly
And hid the earth from sight.
And vixen, in bitter sorrow,
He 10 oked into the night,
Behosd, the earth shone brightly,
Wrapped in it's robe OF white!
And the promise came to cheer him,
And bring him peace: although
Your sins may be as scarlet
They shall be white as snow"

An Alabama Romance.

In the spring of 1865 several ladies
of Cahaba, Ala, collected their, silver
and jewelry together and buried it
NEAR the town. Among the ladies
were Mrs. General E. w. Pettus, Mrs.
Sal1ie A. Thorn and Mrs. M. NJ.
Roberts. The ladies took the yalua
ble;package late one afternoon in Feb
ruary and with their own hands dug a
hole and hYt:s .their possessions to
the Union soldiers,
az 9. ATT time passing through
the state. When the ladies were bury
ing the box they little suspected they
were being watchedby alparty of ne
groes, who waited awhile until they
were out Of sight and resurrected the
box The valuabies were scattered
on the ground and a division made.
After the excitement of the war had
passed the ladies decided to unearth
their longed- for treasures. When the
spot was reached the box was found
empty. Allefforts to recover the prop
,erty were in vain, and the owners be-
came reconciled to their losses. Time,
with it's changes, rolled on, and the
families became scattered through the
states of Louisiana and Texas. A few
days since some members of the Pettus
family were dining with Mrs. General
.Pettus at her home in Selma. The
party included Mrs. General Pettus,
Mrs. Anthony Jones and Mrs. Frank
Pettus. During the conversation the
ladies began tss discuss the war, and
how hard it ,iWsss to save the silver
ware. Mrs. Anthony Jones said:
st'That reminds me of some silver
spoons and Turks left by a Union Of
a4icer with the S, ,guson family that
think nEse .haEe!|lad history The
silver had the. initials j. "A. Z. on
them. y have heard that the officer
made every effort to find the owner Of
the sllverwaee, and when he could not
he lett it vita the FergusOns, stating
that 1t was not his and would leave it
tor the owners. He left for the north
and the Fergusons went to Brazil. On
their return the silverware also re-
turned TO Selma. Theladies grew very
interested and identified the silver
from the description given as that
buried by them twenty years ago. The
silver was i'd ssntified and returned to
THE oxner ef.ssaa Ala Times.

"Just think" said Mrs. Hunter, 1--WE
will have our home paid for in a few
years and we are now paying out on
it only a little more than we used to
pay in rent"
"When did you say we would get
through paying?' inquired Mr.. Hun
ter displaying a little curiosity.
Eat the end of eight years from the
time first took out the shares re-
piled his wife, and then adding, $50

Week after week and month after
month Mrs. Hunter continued her reg
ular visits to the Office OF the associa-
ton, and at last the flowers bloomed
for the spring Of 1885, and the end of
the period of probation and trial for
the homesteaders was but q few
months away. But during the sum-
mer Henry fell sick and had to leave
his desk for several weary months.
There was a doctors bill to pay, and
lots OF expenses, and only half of an.
income to meet them with, for the Lake
street firm generously continued him
on the pay roll at half pay. By the
aid Of this $40 a week, and the little
roll in the bureau drawer, Mrs. Hun
ter managed to pay most of the bills
and keep up the interest and the dues.
But it was weary struggle, and the
doctors bill and at last the drug bill
and other bills began 70 mount up at
an alarming rate.
Along in November Henry resumed
his work, and $50 a week came in

JEFFERSON DAVIS attacks Gen. Sher>
man in public letter. 1t is a good deal
too late. He had all the opportunity
be wanted to attack Sherman 81 year:
ago, when William Tecumseh was mov+
ing about in the Carolinas. He failed
to attack at that time to any purpose, and
had to run away, and was caught inef-
fectively disguised in Woman's petit
coat, and was finally spared cOntemptu~
ously by the Nation he had tried to de-
stroy. Nothing that this unhung traitor
can say at this late day is of particular

IT seems from the discovery thus far
made in the investigation of Democrat
ic rascality in connection with the man
agement of the Ohio Penitentiary. that
pretty much everybody connected with
that institution was con the make
Contracts for supplies were made in
blank, and vouchers therefor filled up to
suit the pockets of the thrifty officials,
and all sorts of methods resorted to rob
the State. Plenty of evidence has been
received as to the skinning of dead con-
victs, so that the officials are known to
have been guilty of inhumanity as well
as rascality. The Democracy are in fa-
vor of reform and honesty in Office only
so long as the other party is in power,
and never miss an opportunity to make
rake" when they control things.

A WASHINGTON CITY Sunday newspa-
per, speaking as one having authority
gives the world to understand that the
relations of President Cleveland and
Gov. Hill are of the most cordially
friendly kind; that the latter has no am.
bition to be President, but wants to har-
monize the many conflicting factions
among the New York Democrats, hold
the State firmly in the Bourbon column,
and be his own successor in 1898, leav-
ing the Presidential field free to Mr.
Cleveland. Notwithstanding the state
ment of this paper. it is apparent that
Gov. Hill has the Presidential bee in his
bonnet, and will knock his "Heaviness'
out if he gets half chance.
