and perhs.s convey one 10 your readers, by
explaining how row that witnessed many
years ago in Donnybrook fair, of immortal
memory, did begin.
1t was late in the afternoon, and the fair
had preserved an unwonted air of quiet
during the day, when there came staggering
along, close to where WAS standing, an
lrishman who was evidently "spoiling for a
fight" Close by stood a dancing booth, one
Of the ordinary canvas tents one sees at every
fair, or race course for that matter, with a
platform in the middle and bench running
all round, on which the spectators sat. On
the outside, As they sat could be clearly seen,
under the thin covering Of the tents, the out
lines Of their figures as they leaned against
the canvas
-Four O'Clock an no foight yet," muttered
the new arrival, regretfully, as he steadied
himself to look round for a possible antago-
mist. Suddenly his eye caught the booth, and
rested approvingly upon il, when the canvas

spectators within Without a moments hesi-
tation he gave a "haroosh,r p waved his shille-
lah round his head, and brought it down
with all his force upon the projection nearest

The great Scotch author, suffered all his
life with dyspepsia, which ma.ie his own
life miserable and caused his best and truest
friends not little pain because of his fret
fulness. Dyspepsia generally arises from
disease of the liver, and as DR.. Pierce's

eases of this great gland, it follows that
while all cannot be Carlyles, even with dys-
pepsia, all can be free from the malady,

A prominent Indiana republican says in
an interview: Il feel safe in predicting that
we shall have good majority of the In
diana delegation in the next congress.
There are now eight democrats and five re-
publicans. A gain of two would place us
in the majority, but we expect more than
that. Never in the history of Indiana has
a party been so thoroughly broken up into
factions as the democrats are there today"

THE WlNDs

The north winds bowling iers~
sweep down from boreaI regions,
'.oiii the paiiid zone where winters
throne
was wrought in the wide waste. wan and
lone,
Innumbered years ago;
lhey come on wings whose futterings
bestrew the world with snow,
And their icy breath is bitter death,
Their football only woe
The east wind comes with sadness
And pain, an midnight madness.
from solitude where curses brood
And poisoned dews on the dales ara
strewed,
And sorrow throttles gladness;
II comes like a ghost from spectral coast
Where cypress branches wave,
And out Of its plumes fall ghastly glooms
Like those that encircle the grave.
Inc south wind comes assigning,
10 ouds and blooms replying.
ne comes In quest of love and rest,
anu presently on roses breast,
In rapture lies a-dying;
ne comes like dreams, and only seems,
His cradle is his tomb;
his llte is a song TO murmuring streams,
His death-a rich perfume.
The zephyr, fragrance laden,
brings balm to man and maiden
brings dove-eyed rest TO the troubled
breast
FROM The mystical regions Of the west
FROM loves enchanted Aideen;
~ comes with news as fresh as the dews
That gather in starry hours.
With wonderful store of tender lore
From the sweet book Of the flowers.

The Guerrero (Mcx.) Periodic0 Official
prints the following report of the dis
covery of q queer phenomenon on the
property of Senor Felex Villamer. In
quest of drinking-water, a well had been
dug TO the depth of seven meters, when
work was suspended over Sunday. On
the Monday morning. May 10, the peon
who uncovered the we'll descended to
begin his work, and when short dis
tance down he experienced n sensation
of discomfort. which increased as he
neared the bottom. Thinking himself
dying, he shouted for help, clinging TO
rope which hung in the well, but un-
able, so weakened was he, to make the
effort to climb out by its aid. By the
time assistance was at hand the peon
was purple in the face and ejecting
bloody foam, SO that his mates halted
at the curb. not daring to confront the
invisible, unknown peril that produced
such frightful effects. At last one
nerved himself to descend to the res
cue, and barely succeeded in fastening
a rope to the almost lifeless body, when
be, too, became asphyxiated, and the
two were drawn out more dead than
alive, but were revived. The owner of
the premises summoned friends, who
applied tests, which proved conclusive
ly that fountain or reservoir of car
bonic acid gas had been tapped; cam
dies were extinguished when lowered
into the well, and the usual phenomena
responded to other tests. Within six
hours the jet of gas had spread for thir-
ty feet around the well, and it is feared
that if the discharge continue the inn
mediate premises, if not a greater area,
will be rendered unlnhabiiablc by the
curious find.

The President and Pat sanders.

Representative Frank Lawler, OF Chi
cago. takes more queer constituents to
see the president than any other MEN,
ber of congress. The president has
come to appreciate this fact A few
days ago Mr.. Lawler took up TO the
white house ex-Alderman Patrick San
ders, of Chicago, who has made a for
tune shaving notes at cent per cent
Sanders, who is very conceited, said to
Lawler just as they were going into the
white house: Tell him that I'm
millionaire. " So. when Lawler pre-
sented him, he said: ''Mr. President,
let me present ex-Aldcrman Sanders, Of
Chicago, one of our millionaires. 1t
did not take many minutes converse
ton to show the president just what
sort of man the ex-alderman was.
'Mr. Sanders" said the president,
somewhat suddenly, while his eyes
twinkled, "do you ever loan money!"
'sOh, yes, Mr.. President" responded
Sanders. adding cautiously, ION good
security 81
.'Well," said the president. in a jocu-
lar way, II have just begun housckeep-
ing, and it is possible that may want
to borrow some money. / haven't
much property for security. There's
my country place. which is worth $780,
900. and have some property in Buffa-
10 that may be worth $4,000 more
say $4,000 in all. Now, If / should
want to borrow 100000. do you think
you could loan itp"
Sanders took it quito seriously, and
began to perspirc with conflicting
emotion. .'Well. sir,' he said, after
some hesitation, I'D like to accommo-
date you, but 100000 is big discrep-
ancy."
''Then, said Lawler, who tells the
story, she suddenly caught my arm
didn't breathe free again until he was
out of doors.
