The Philadelphia Press well remarks,
that There j. every reason for believing
that Badeau has undertaken "A bigger job
than he will ever be able to perform in
his controversy with the Grant heirs.
The testimony of his own letters i9almost
enough to warrant non-SuIt against
him" Even more, it may he said, that
the wonder is how Grant endured Badeau
so long. It i another evidence of the
tolerant patience of the great warrior

The land Where Our Dreams Come
True.

We shall find the lost treasures we seek for
Revealed in that wonderful spberel
All the aims and the dreams of the by-gone,
All the good that eluded us here;
The innocent faiths Of our childhood,
The one fiameless friendship we knew,
Arrayed In our banished illusions,
In the land where our dreams come true.
We know In divinest fulfillment
Our vain hopes are gathered at home;
The jewels we mourn here are boarded
Where the moth and thu rust cannot
come;
And oft when the sunset is ~faintest
We catch through a rift in the blue
A far-away glimpse Of the elories
OF the land where our dreams come true.
There are garnered the prayers of our
mothers,
And the soft cradle songs that they
sung;
There they move in the mist, with white
garments,
And faces Immortality young.
And out of the mists of the river
Their sweet hands shall reach US the
dew,
That leads through the valley of shadow,
To the land where our dreams cometrue.
So, weeping, we lay down our idols,
And bury our loves ont of sight,
Though we know in our hearts we shall
find them
BY and by in the Mansion of Light;
And the salt tears that fall on their ashes,
And blossom in pansy and rue,
Over there shall be lilies immortal,
In the land where our dreams come true.

"What do you ask for steakP" asked

He had just got back from Europe.
He says he didn't have a very pleasant
time. Indeed, he declared that Europe
is a quite overrated country and not a
patch on California. The party who
went with him were OF a different
opinion all the time, and he had to
spend most of his time thinking up
contradictory arguments. Everything
they saw was lovely, graudly beautiful,
superb. immense. They were in Swift

Cunning Chinese Burglars.

The ladder of the Chinese burglar is,
in ordinary appearance, nothing more
than a bamboo pole, such as every
laborer uses in carrying burdens; but
1t is in reality hollow, as all bamboos
are, of course, and through it runs a
rope which is SC arranged that at each
joint of the bamboo it connects with
another rope, forming a loop. These
loops can be drawn taut and concealed,
so that when the thief carries this lad
der on the street it is a simple and
honest appearing pole; but when
needed it is set against the wall to be
scaled, the rope is slackened, and by
the loops thus formed the thief mounts
the wall and enters the building to be
plundered. Thus EARNED and equip
ped" tue cool adroitnoss and success
with which a thief viii! enter a house,
60 oven to the sleeping rooms of the
inmates. and steal tho very clothing
from their beds, is something mar
velous.
A. friend OF the writer, for many
years a resident of Picking, awoke one
winter night, some ten years ago,
shivering with the cold, and found all
the clothes slipping from the bed. He
replaced them and fell asleep. In an
hour he awoke again for the same rea-
son, again replaced the bedding, and
again went to sleep. In another hour
he awoke to find himself absolutely
without any covering, though the bed
stood near an open window. A thief
had come in his house, crept under his
haH nstlIaH off oil tho olpfhfnn nra1-
ually and carefully, as the bed clothes
will sometimes creep off themselves,
and OF the third trial had been sue
c%essful. and got away with his plumber.
Each time that the occupant of the
bed awoke aud replaced the bedding the
thief had been quietly enseonced under
the bed, ready to try again as soon as
the owner fell asleep. Chinese thieves
know that perseverance conquers all
things" even to bed clothes.
Another friend awoke n night and
saw in the full light of the moon shin
Ing through n window, a Chinese thief
on his knees, bending over a quantity
of clothing, busily packing ard tying it
up In a sheet. This friend, a man of
great GOODNESS and presence of mind,
tuouSut, ludt lis Without dIdIuiiDB tne
thief, he could spring from the bed
upon the back Of the intruder thus bent
over, he could hold him down and cap
lure him, So, after removing the bed
ing with the utmost Care, he spraug
upon the thief and succeeded In clasp
ing him about the waist. He then
found to his disgust, that the body of
the Chinaman was oiled, and with all
his strength he could not prevent him
from turning about In his arms.
Thinking to Improve matters, he kept
one arm about the waist OF the thief
and reached up with the other to seize
him by the cue, but he drew it away
again at once, bleeding in half a dozen
places, and the thief easily slipped FROM
the single arm that surrounded him,
and, empty handed, bounded from the
room and disappeared.
