Hon. GeOrle I. Stevens.

The Hon. George II. Stevens, fo,
 the co Incil, IS the flvorite, and the
 Ie lrns vii show an almost unanimous
 vJ.e cast for him. The holI he has
 on the regard and respect of his friends ali acquaintances is strong aid no
 manner of slafderous allegations against him has the faintpst imprec- sion on them. Any rff,rt to mar this gool will and thorough regard for him lasts about as long as speck of humidity on au arid desert. One of h S psrson1i adherents was asked the q leston, "How is it that Little Stev,' retains his personal and political fol bwing when he is talked about so much in his districtP' The reply was, "If you ask him to do anything for you he will not t,ll you d-d lie, but will say yes or mo-, which set ties it." At this another spoke up and said, "that's right, and if he can do you the service yoa can bet your sweet life it will be done." An old then said: "Apart from his generous qualities, Steve is a man above the average in many ways and has no mean record as legislator M lrk my words, Steve will have re medied many evils that prospectors are complaining of now, such as passing . law controlling the purchase of ores ny smelling and other companies and have extortionate freight rates sto D. ped. ."-Clifton Clarion.

BECK; OF KENTUCKY.
A Romantic Story of HIS sympathy ios
Poor Girl.

Colonel Alexander Roteller, Pardon
Clerk in the Department OF Justice,
tells this story TO Washington corres'
poudent:
GA young man Of good family con.
ncction not long since became involved
in ielonious transaction, and notning
but a pardon could save him from the
peuitentiary. His sister, a sweet and
pretty young girl, probably htteen
yeas old, came here to plead for her
brother and save her family from dis
grace. She made pitiabie plea In his
defense, beseeching me TO intercede for
him. 1t was very painful scene, and
while the poor girl was speaking Sena>
tor Beck entered. The Senator listened
attentively to her story, and when sne
had finished he said that he would tax
to the President and see what coulo %
done, and requested her to call at my
Office the next day, where there wouio
be an answer, favorable or otherwise.
The following day the young woman, !,
who was nothing more than schoo1-
girl, was promptly on hand, and per-
ceive d that she labored under a terrible
state of nervous excitement, anu
feared that the news, good or Dau
would be too much for her to stand,
and / was on the point OF calling q
lady to render any assistance II neces-
sary. When Senator Beck put In IN
Importance he handed the papers &c
me. 1 noticed at glance that the par
don had been granted, but dreaded te
saw any thing, as the young lady seemed
about to faint. /, however, turned u
lher and said as composedly as J could
.Allow me TO congratulate you.' hat
hardly concluded my sentence whe'
she threw up her arms and fell in
dead sw oon to the floor. When con
sciousuess returned che started Wit
open arms toward Senator Beck, "h
gently led her to seat, patted her
the head, aud with his eyes ove'no"
: ing with tears, rushed from the room
AS the door closed the young girl eA
claimed: sGod bless that big mar
and may he never in all his life nav
any trouble
MBut the sweet, earnest prayer of ~
= young girl was not answered, ior

The Gift of WhistIinr.

Whistling has become to be quite as great if not a greater nuisance than cigarette smoking. Indeed, notice than number of brokers offices on Wall street have signs con- spicuously displayed above the cashiers win dow, politely requesting the young men who deliver stock not to whistle while they are waiting for their checks. Exactly why the sibilant gift has been endowed in the human race is not altogether apparent If it were limited alone to men who own dogs we might still, with the exception of mosquitoes and a few other annoyances, justly contend that Nature had made nothing that was utterly useless. But when the whistle-I allude to the intransitive verb and not to the nickel plated instrumSnt--is made to do service to Gilbert and Sullivan operettas, popular marches or sentimental ballads, It is, if not used with the greatest judgment and control, positively fatal. If there was such thing, for instance, as getting out an injunction against this counterfeit on music, or even if it were possible to corner the market, the benefit that would accrue from such a state of affairs is quite incalculable.-Joh Preston Beecher in New York News.

New York's .'organized, Charities.

Our organized charities are so much ''or- ganized' that individual relief is next to an imposSibility. I have now and then taken the liberty of sending family with card to relief association, and that relief asso- citation, after investigation, has sent them a half ton of coal. On one occasion they sent half ton of coal to a family which had pawned its stove. its bed, its table, it's chairs, everything except a pallet of straw and two candlesticks! In the hurry scurry of my work simply took in the idea that there was poor family who needed help, and gave my card, indorsing the application, and turned to my work, and a week after was in- tensely chagrined-the chagrjn somewhat tinged by the irony of the amusing fact, l must say, that the relief was half ton of coal, which they had no stove to burn in and no place to keep if they had had a stove.-Joe Howard in Chicago News
