"cLEAR THE Way"

The city lies In hushed repose
The wintry night wind freshly blows,
As II to rock the cradled host
In slumber's sweet oblivion lost
But bark! o sound, and 10 q sight
That wakes the town IN dead Of night
A shrek and glare,
A cry OF despair
AT the flames In their ire,
For the one word Is "F'rel"
The people rush out
And with hurry and shout,
Press on to the light
As 1t brightens the night,
And spreads like banner unfurlcd up on high,
sign and terror against the dark sky
But hark to the clatter, than music more sweet,
Or the rolling wheels and the horses feet
Out OF the way--out Of the wayi
n They come to save-uow clear the way!"
S,tA sea OF faces upward turned
one fear by every heart inurned;
by ruddy light is clearly read
On every brow the anxious dread.

der neck tight clasped by baby hands.
And through roar and hiss
Not quite they miss
Her piteous frenzied cry;
But mounting quick on high
hero springs,
His helm star
OF hope that filings
A halo far
Mid the lurid light
For moment lost, then dimy seen
AS 1t CLEANS on the sight,

And the shining helmis hero's crown!
Yet needs not he what people say.
He only bids them 'cear the wayl'

SOME RARE COINS.
The Work of Bank-Tellers When I'll

The Work of I,ank-Tellers When Their
Days Labor Is Over.
"Do you know what good many
bank tellers and men who handle large
amounts of gold and silver coins do at
the close of the day?" quer;ed q former
bank clerk.
"Go home, probably?"
"Yes; but not until they have looked
through their metal cash forrare coins"
"Do they ever find any?"
Certainly they do sometimes, though
not so very often. 1t is a lottery. The
fact that some of the rarest of American
coins have been picked up in ordinary
circulation keeps their eyes peeled.
They know values pretty we'll, and the
sanguine cherish the hope of unearth-
ing one of the missing dollars of 1904,
which are worth 5000 each. In fact, as
high as $500 has been offered and re-
fused. The half-dollar of 1852, repre-
senting Liberty seated, is in circula-
ton. 1t is worth $l.75. The quarter
of 1858, with rays, is also occasionally
met. 1t brings so. Among silver dol
lars of recent coinage, the 1858 dollar,
representing Liberty seated. is the most
valuable. 1t is worth $l5. The dollar
of 1888 has flying eagle on the re-
verse side. A little worn it would pass
without notice. 1t is worth $l5. So is
the same coin of 1889. Both are in cir
culation. The 20-cent piece of 1877 is
worth Sl.50, and of 1873, $l.25. They
are to be met, though rarely. The valu-
able dimes and half-dimes We're aN
coined before 1916. The silver three
cent piece OF 1873, with the large star,
brings GO cents; the copper two-cent
piece of the same year is worth the
same. The tlying-eaglc cent of 1856
sells for 81. All the gold coins coined
prior to 1888 command premiums. y

TRY NOT TO COUGH.
Conquerlng Colds by the Exercise of Self.
Control ana Care.

Contr3A ana care
A physician who is connected with
an institution which contains many
children, says: "There is nothing more
irritating to a cough than to cough.
For some time have been so fully as
sured of this that recently determined
if possible. for one minute at least, to
lessen the number of coughs heard in
a certain ward in the hospital of the
institution. BY the promise of rewards
and punishments succeeded in inducing
them simply to hold their breath when
tempted to cough, and in little while
I was myself surprised to see how some
of the children recovered entirely from
their disease.
"Tonstant coughing is precisely like
scratching wound on the outside of
the body; so long rs it is done the
wound will not heal. Let q person
when tempted to cough draw q long
breath and hold it until it warns and
soothes every cell, and some benefit
will soon be received from the process.
The nitrogen which is thus retained
acts as an anodyne to the irritated mu-
Gus membrane, allaying the desire to
cough and giving the throat and lungs
q chance to heal. At the same time a
suitable medicine will aid nature in her
effort to recuperate. ''-Baltinore Nea0s.

Colonel Charles p. Goldman. the
well-known Massachusetts, Liberal Re-
publican, who supported Cleveland in
1884, made speech to the "Norfolk
Club the other evening, in which he
announced his affiliation with the DEM
ocratic party. He said:
81 confess that every day I am drawn by
bands that can not resist to range myself in
the ranks of the old Democratic party Great
applause.1 Ihad been feeling for number Of
years discontinued with my party associations;
dissatisfied with much that was going on in the
Republican party; dissatisfied more especially
with what seemed its inevitable tendency,
namely, to become the champion of the pres
ent high tariff, with which had been for years
utterly disgusted. And it only needed the NOM
ination Of Mr.. Blaine to let that discomfort ex-

cratic party to-day 1t is because believe the
Democratic party is returning to its first love.
AS l remember it In its early days. 1t was the
party that was opposed to the taxing of the
people for the benefit Of the few monopoles,
and that is, believe, the principle of the Dem
ocratc party to-day, and it is for this reason
range myself with them"
That is the way it strikes many
other sensible and patriotic Repub-
licars. The fact is that the Repub-
lican party in its inception was COM
posed largely of Democrats who were
willing for time to subordinate their
principles so far as economical ques-
tions were concerned 20 their supreme
desire to check the growth of the in
stitution of slavery. After the aboli-
ton Of slavery they no longer had
any thing in common with the Re-
publican party. The subserviency of
that party to monopoly, its reckless
and wasteful administration of the
National finances, its neglect to re-
lieve the people of unnecessary and
oppressive taxes, its gifts of vast areas
of the public domain to speculative
corporations, its theft of the Presi-
dency in 1876, and its final resolution
to oppose the reduction of the war
tariff, have operated to drive back to
their old love many of those who left
the Democracy during the anti-slavery
excitement and the war period. And
they are still coming. Besides. there
are thousands of original Republicans
who admire the integrity and man.
illness of President Cleveland, and
who will cheerfully support his re-
election. Colonel Goldman is simply a
pioneer in the movement of this class
of Republicans toward the Democracy.

While our Republican friends are
coming to blows over dispute as to
whether Blaine means 1t or whether
he does not mean 1t, and while they
are in an agonizcd frame of mind as
to what shall be done with the hundred
applicants who are rushing to the

sort of serene and smiling satisfaction
spreads itself over the countenance of
the Democratic party. beginning
retreat" they say. "1n n panic at
this early stage of the contest, and des-
perately striving to rearrange their
line of battle under fire." "The vic
tory is already practically won."
These suggestions, these expressions
of careful opinion, certainly seem justi-
fed by the situation. But overcon-
fidence is always dangerous in great
struggle. When the First Napoleon
sent word to Paris that Wellington
was "bcginning retreat he did not
know of the default of Grouchy--he
did not foresee the arrival of Blucher.
While there is present cause to smile,
we must guard all the passes, lest
there be future cause to weep. The
Republican managers die hard. They
are down now. We must keep them
down. Under the NJ. Q. rules the
round does not end with knock

and before they can gather.
The prospects of the National Dem.
ocratic party never. looked brighter
than now. Such differences of opinion
as exist among it do not go to the mer
it's of the November contest. All will
be united then. 1t is but natural tina
there should be many aspirants for

idential nomination, when there il
taken into account the almost Ger
tainty of Democratic success. But
though we may quarrel in the choic,
of delegates, and contest in the con
vention, yet there is everywhere conf
dence that good choice will be made
and that the nominee will poll not onl,
the solid party vote, but the grea
bulk of independent voters of thi
great country.
In the great contest of Novembe
we shall carry not only the South

ably certain of also carrying Ne'

even Illinois and Michigan, may b

Senator Sherman has not the ele-
ments OF popularity that would make
him strong candidate if nominated
nor the active sympathy with the COM
mon people that would make him n
good President il elected. We have
always thought MIR. Sherman to be the
type of Il sordid, selfish, avaricious pol
itician, actively identified with the
money power of Wall street, and with
out an atom of genuine feeling for the
poor or even for. the people of moder-
ate means. We have opposed his nomi-
nation to the Presidency on these
grounds, because we have realized that
his cold and calculating character is
estimated ut its true value by the peo-
pie of the United States, and therefore
that he would be about the weakest
candidate that the Republican party
could propose for the popular suffrage.
