Energetic,

Many years ago, when Detroit was
much less of a city than it is at pres
ent, there came on very severe and
sudden "cold snap" early in the Win
ter. The roads leading out of the
city were almost impossible from
recent heavy rain, and wood, then
the only fuel burned in the city, rose
suddenly and enormously in price.
Mr.. II. II. Emmons, a prominent
lawyer, one evening, as he was re-
firing to his room for the night, said
to his wife that something must be
done for the poor, or many of them
would actually freeze to death. For
tunately, he was man who knew
how to act, as well as to feel.
The next morning he breaktasted
before daylight, and started out, not
to seek advice, but to do what was
needed.
The first man he hailed rhus: Are
you around notifying >"
Notifying what??"
"Why, the meeting at the United
States courtroom, to take measures
to distribute wood to the poor, 1t is
to be held at nine o'clock. Some
thing must be done at once, or the
people will be freezing
"Ihadn't heard anything about it,"
answered the citizen, shut | will
gladly do what can"
Every good. Suppose you notify
those on your street immediately,and
send everybody along to the Court
house,"
He set the next man, and the next
at the same business, till the city was
reused. At nine o'clock the court
room was filed to overlooking.
Thousands of dollars were subscribed
on the spot; the. poor were renewed
at once. Within an hour and half
from the time when the first man
was asked if he was around notifying,
proclamation had been made that
the destitute could obtain fuel at a
certain woodward.
The amount of money raised prov
ed to be twice what was needed, and
the remainder was invested for SINH
lar use in the future.
One of the pleasantest features of
the affair was the fact that nobody,
or almost nobody, knew how the
meeting came to be called. GA spon-
taneous gathering all the newspa-
pers called it, and it was commented
upon far and near

The Might of a Seed.

In the city of Hanover, in Germa-
ny is an old, neglected graveyard.
Near the entrance is a tomb in which
lie the remains of lady who belong
ed to the old nobility, and who was
buried here about the middle of last
century. The tomb is covered with
massive blocks Of stone. On one of
these stones, besides the name of the
lady, and the date of her death, there
are carved these words: "This grave,
bought for all time, must never be
opened.
But there are. mightier forces than
heavy stones and iron clamps. A lit

ice between two of the stones. 1t
took root and grew, until now there
is an immense birch-tree waving its
graceful limbs over the tomb. But
as the tree grew, its roots went
through the grave, and the trunk
lifted the great stones and broke the
iron clamps, and the little seed had
opened the grave, for its power was
greater than the stone and the iron!
1t was the power of life!

Tom S Gold Dust.

THAT boy knows how to take care
of his gold-dust," said Toms uncle
often to himself, and sometimes
aloud. Tom went to College, and
every account they heard Of him he
was going ahead, laying solid foun-
datl0n for the future.
"Certainly," said his uncle, seer
tainly; that boy, tell you, knows
how TO take of his gold-dust."
Gold-dust! Where did Tom get
gold-dust? He was poor boy. He
had not been to California. lie never
was a miner. Where did he get his
gold-dust? All! he has seconds and
minutes, and these are the gold-dust
of time-specks and particles of time
which bOys,girlsand groWn-up people
are apt to waste and throw away.
Tom knew their value. His father
had taught him that every speck and
particle of time was worth its weight
in gold;and his son took care of them
as if they were Take care Of your

1t Is no eXaggeratlOn to say, in the
light of this estimate, that for every
dollar that is spent for proper food,

and comforts of life, something like
fifty cents is spent for Rum. That is,
one-third the money that should be

Everybody everywhere cannot but re-
.joice in the patriotic sentiments expressed
by Representatives Oates and Herbert, of
Alabama, i'll congress the day Of adjourn
ment for the holiday recess, but many,
very many, are long way from sharing
their desire for a foreign war. As the
Hartford Courant pertinently remarks,
IN the event of such a calamity befall-
ing, no doubt our southern countrymen
would do their full share Of the fighting
and dying for the flag; but the Alabama
representatives are mistaken in thinking
this sort of practical test and demonstra-
ton needed to convince us of their
loyalty and devotion to the restored
union. We may and do deplore what
seems to Us their political wrong-headed-
ness, but we credit them freely aud IN
reservedly with a re-illunlined partiot-
ism as ardent as our own. The country
is not ready for war at present, how
ever, and moreover even at the best of

ways an unspeakably awful thing, full
of horror and heartache for the innocent
and the helpless. May the day be very

THAT D. M, s. A. MIDDLE.

Our dispatches Of yesterday morning
announce that Fitzgerald & Mallory
have sued Jay Gould for one and half
million dollars which amount they claim
is due them for constructing the d., NJ.
& A. Railway. As that railroad is man
aged from the general Missouri Pacific
Offices in Wichita and as the line will
cut no small figure in the future traffic
of this city its affairs become of interest.
The Denver, Memphis G Atlantic rail
way scheme originated with men who
had neither railway experience nor
money. 1t was to be a narrow guage
railway from the Rocky mountains to
the Atlantic ocean and to cost fifteen
millions of dollars It's principal pro-
iector end manager was the proprietor
of a patent country newspaper who was
going to make the headquarters for the
entire system at his town. 1t was at q
time when bond subsidies could be
had for the asking and
they were asked Fitzgerald & Mallory
railway builders saw an opportunity to
construct or partially construct small
section of the road, no doubt under the
conviction that they could unload such
partial construction on the Gulf or
Missouri Pacific systems. They were right
in their estimates. 1Ir. Gould saw that
he must take care Of it or do worse
The forcing of that line into Mr. Gould's
lines cost Wichita two very important

line was the most cheaply constructed
of any road ever built in this state so far
as we have any knowledge, and we
venture the opinion that the plaintiffs

A Virginian relates that one of the
amusing features Of the late campaign in
the Tenth district Of Virginia, where
son of ex-Congressman Randolph Tucker
was running for congress against Jacob
Yost, was the conflict of opinion between
Tucker, the father, and Tucker, the son,
in regard to the seventy million dollar
education bill of Senator Blair In con-
gress and on the stump Randolph Tucker
was one of the most resolute oponents of
the Blair bill, on the ground that it is
unconstitutional. His son, on the con-
trary. made himself solid with the peo-
pie and deprived Mr.. Yost of strong ar
gument against young fuckers election
by coming out squarely in favor of the
scheme for national aid to public schools,
which is very popular with both political
parties in Virginia. While Randolph
Tucker was stumping the district this
family difference was often thrown up
TO him in good-natured way, and his
ready Wit and facial drolleries soon had
the audience in a roar. Young Tucker
WAS elected

On Thursday the supreme court Of
Iowa, in session at Des Moines, an
nounced another decision in the pro-
tracted A. 0. L. W. controversy. This
is a reatfirmation of the one made some
years since against those adhering to the
national body. The court holds that the
A. o. L. W. is life and health insur-
ance company and as such, under the
law under which the controversy arose
could not as national organization do
business in Iowa without complying
with the insurance laws. The decision
is quite sweeping, and would affect not
only the Worknen, but the knights OF
Honor, the Modern Woodmen, the y.
Legion Of Honor and kindred organiza-
tons, and also the Odd Fellows. knights
of Pythias and all other institutions
which have provisions similar 10 that OF
the 4. o. L. W. concerning sick bene-
fits. Fortunately the law has been
changed lin 1885 since this controversy
arose, and the Workmen and all other
fraternitie5 are exempted from comply
ing with the insurance laws.
