cardinal Manning in the Contemporary Review. ]
A little while ago there might have been
seen a small girl of nine years old, who had
suffered greatly from her fathers hand be-
fore she reluctantly told the tale which got
him into prison, now standing at his prison
door. 1t is the morning of her fathers re-
lease. No one is with her; she is alone and
shivers as the cold April wind lifts her poor,
thin garments and her hair, for she is with
out any covering to her head. She has
loved and dwelt with him all her days, she
will love and dwell with him still; perhaps
nobody else will do so now, for he has been
in there. At length the door opens and she
sees him coming through. Her pale little
face lights up with a look that speaks well
come more than words-it is her father
such looks as win from true men their ten
derest caress and kindest words. AS she
steals up to him there is in her what could
have burst upon him with shouts and leaps
of joy. 1t longs to do SO, but is sorely dis
couraged; the father looks sullen. Yet,
in spite of that, she sidles up toward the
fellow as he is leaving the doorway with such
a timid, pathetic little prayer in her uplifted
silent face. For few seconds she is walk
ing by his side. Then he half turns his
mead and looks at the face SO full OF gentle
woe. which now has half born smile in it.
Is he going to let her kiss him? 'Be off"
he growls. He is thick fellow, and he
half lifts the arm next to her as if he would
slap the pleading little face with the back of
his hand if she continued another. step by
his side. The child stops instantly; the man
goes on. She stands moment and then
turns and goes meditatively and slowly back,
sits down on a stone step and-"cries," you
n al IA ary. thara rn
eyes already tired of tears. They are too old
to weep. Her heart had been silenced by a
blow for the theusandth time; that was all.
There are little children reared in hunger,
curses and blows whose hands are ever ready
to stroke the beard of the big men who have
inflicted their sores and made them sick to
death; they never waver in filial fidelity. 1t
is with but few of the deepest aches and
pains of unfortunate children that the law
can deal. The torture of sympathies, trusts
and loves-this it is which makes bodily in
juries all the more strange and hard to bear.

1t is a noteworthy fact that Chicago re-
porters have furnished the most valuable
testimony to convict the anarchists who
murdered the policemen. And yet not long
ago the Chicago police authorities issued or
ders that criminal news should be given
to reporters. The mistaken idea was that
the reporters, by premature publication of
some item, might block the efforts of the
police to make capture.

1t is said that the great glacier of Alaska
is moving at the rate of a quarter of a mile
per annum toward the sea. The front pre-
sents wall of ice some five hundred feet in
thickness, it's breadth varies from three to
ten miles, and it is about one hundred and
fifty miles long. Almost every quarter of
an hour hundreds of tons of ice in large blocks
fall into the sea, which they agitate in the
most violent manner, the waves being such
as to toss about the largest vessels that ap-
proach the glacier as if they were small boats.
The ice is extremely pure and dazzling to the
eye, and has tints of the lightest blue as we'll
as of the deepest indigo. The top is very
rough and broken, forming small hills, and
even chains of mountains in miniature.

Maurice B. Flynn, the new "boss' of New
York city, has taken full advantage of his
opportunities. He is only thirty eight years
old, and was born in this country of emf
grant Irish parents. He was farm boy,
but left work there for the city, and, after
several unsuccessful ventures, became con-
nected with concern which had city con-
tracts. He also got into Democratic politics,
and it is said that he is worth to-day about
$3,OOO,OOO.

"Capitalistic tyranny" which is SO hated
by the labor organizations is bad thing,
but a great many workmen have not better
ed themselves by becoming subject to the
tyranny of the labor unions It is recorded
Of a New York workman now 'outn that his
wife lies at the point of death, long time
dangerously sick. An infant in it's first year
and two or three other children, not yet in
their teens, are dependent on him. Rent day
is at hand. Doctors bills, drug bills, gro
GERS bills are all yawning at him. And in
the face of all this the man felt obliged to
strike when ordered to, although it is only a
fortnight ago that his own wages were in
creased and promises of a promotion made
to him. But when, few days ago, another
workman-not known to him, not in his de-
partment, and having no relations with him
was discharged, he received, along with
everybody else in the offending firms en-
ploy, an order to go out on strike. He obey
ed, unquestioning. The next day, with tears
in his eyes, begging elsewhere in the city for
new place and new chance to earn a liv
ing, he told of his family's sufferings and the
dire distress threatening his household.
The city fathers of Steubenville, Ohio,

The Curso Of The Liquor Traflc.

The ohief argument OF the opponents o

II all mon would do right there would
be no necessity OF laws OF restraint or CO.

heuce law becomes necessary TO protect
society ngainst the wrong doer.
If liquor be not bad in itself, as bever-
age, and consequently good for those who
do not abuse 1t, then It logically follows
that If II be good for the father Of family,
1t 10 equally good for the wife and the
children.
But the theory OF fuse and abuse will
not bear the logic of Investigation. Ststis-
tics show that there are 100000 saloons ip
the United States and that they send TO
perdi,ion 100000 human beings annual
ly, throwing upon society 100000 widows
and worse than widows and orphans.
This gives to each dram shop ten vic
Tins, and as many widows and twenty

PRICE OF LIBERTY.

The kind OF liberty ordained and estsb.
lished by the Constitution Of tho United
States, could not be purchased by a small
sacrifice. For more than four thousand
years the earth has been filled with vio-
lence. Ambition and the lust of power
has cauesd an overflow Of rivers OF blood,
These notices Of antiquity have come
down to our time-"Might makes right"
ITO the victors belong the spoils,n "On
the side Of the oppressor there was power"
The men who dared to write, "All men
are created equal" were brave men. They
put on record truth that has excited the
the rage OF tyrants OF all ages. Kings and
emperors, popes, priests and prelates have
all fought for supremacy. The war Of
races and sects and political parties involv-
ed saint and sinner in one commingled and
mad melee. All men equalg Gears,
Bourbons and slave masters the world over
answered no and crushed out the spirit
of liberty in the old world. Here on this
continent tho heroes who made the decla-
ration Of Independence could not be crush
ed out. They met the enemy domestic and
foreign on a hundred battle fields and
were triumphant. You can find the
graves Of patriots who fought and bled
and died everywhere between the Gulf and
and the Lakes and the two great Oceans
The American soil has Leen consscrated
with the blood Of freemen. But our bat.
tles are not all fought. The enemies ol
liberty are importing arms from Europe
and hiding them in secret places. We
shall vet need the Union Army, the com.
bined forces OF the Grand Army Of the
Republic. Let Congress and the Ameri-
can people pay the soldiers for their pas,
services, for we shall need tLeir servIceI
again by and by. They are now the bull
work OF the nation. o. A.

"Ths most bare-faced farce we have to

required once year to select names to

succumbs. A major number OF the jurie'
drawn is made up of personal or political

The natural conclusion is that favor i,ism

More bold RObbery.-0n Thursday o
last week Nathan Carpenter, an honest farmer
who purchased the PenuywelI farm on South
Bnundry street, some three years ago, drove a
valuable horse to Bow ling Green to pay his
taxes. Aftcr paying his taxes he waited some
two hours until Sheriff Brown returned from
wstsrville, as hs had been talking to him sbrut
selling the horse and purchasing a brood mare f.
In tbs mean tins Sid Thurs!iu, 4 uslorinus
horse trader appeared at the barn with a breed
mare and wanted to trade. br. Carpenter told
him distinctly that lie did not want to trade,
but II he snld his horse IN Sheriff Brown he
would look at his mare, drive her and II she
suited him ho would buy her. Thurstin got on
the hsrss to test bis speed aud put whip to him
and spurted the horse away aud he is yet miss
ing. On Sheriff u Browns return he pronounced
II a case Of highway robbery, and proc esded
with Carpenter to Esq Case to have warrant
issued for Thurstn's arrest for horse stealing
Case was satisfied that it was 4 clear case of
horse stealing. as Thurstin had bOen guilty oI
tricks before. yet, as the Sentinel says, "tht
Squire told him he had come TO the wrong
court, on such plea, and sensibly refused to
issue." Mr.. Carpenter says the squire adsis.
ed waiting until next morning. They her
| preceded to Esq. Abbott who issued tho war
rant and Thurstin was arrested, and on Tues
day Of this week had q jury trial before Esq
Abbott and was bound over, furni shed 500
bail and was set at liberty. Mr.. Carpents
says every honest man in Bowling Green, con :
verssnt with the facts, pronounced it high
handed robbery, yet the SstGpel puts an entire
different version upon II; aud every week or two
the readers Of the Gaseite are RECALLED with tn
assertion that horse thieves and robbers give
Wood county wide birth while Sheriff Brow
is on duty.
Mr.. Carpenter Is out Sl75 horse and II will
