Character in Handwriting.

A certain number of men are calm, even
lived, sensible and practical. Men Of that
class are almost certain to write plain, round
handstn which every letter is distinctly leGi-
BILE; neither very much slanted forward, nor
tilted backward; no letter very much bigger
than its neighbor nor with heads much above
or tails much below the letters not SO distin-
guished; the letters all having the same gen.
eral uprightness and the lines true to the
edges of the paper, neither tending upward
nor downward Exact, business like people
will have an exact handwriting Fantastic
minds revel in quirls and streamers, particu-
larly for the capital letters, and this quality
is not infrequent in certain business hands,
as il the writers found a relief from the pro-
sale nature Of their work in giving foTishes
to certain letters Firm, decided, downright
men are apt to bear on the pen while writing,
and to make their strokes hard and thick.
On tire contrary, people who are not sure Of
themselves, and are lacking self control,
press unevt1ly, and with anxious looking,
scratchy hands. Ambitious people are apt
to be overworked; they are always in haste

RESIGNATION
Of Rev. t. W. Resolutions T

| At meeting of the members of the
Mayfower Congregational church. held
November l. 1885, the following resolu-
tions were adopted:
Whereas, The Rev. Thomas w. MINIS
| having labored among US acceptably for
| the past year and five months as our be-
| loved pastor now tenders his resignation
on account of pressing call from sister
in which he recognizes the voice of God,
therefore be it
Resolved, BY the Mayfower branch of
| the Congregational church of Wichita,
! Kan, that we grant the request and ac-
cept his resignation. regrettiDg the loss
which we feel az we shall sustain by this
REIMBURSEMENT,
Resolved, That in him we found one
whose every interest seemed centered in
our spiritual growth, teaching us the
value of faith in our secular as well as our
spiritual life. Neither has he neglected to
instruct US in the use of the other virtues.
Resolved, That those III distress and at
fiction with whom it was possible for him
to come in contact found him more than
an ordinary sympathizer, who would deny
himself much beyond our knowledge to
minister to them in meekness.
Resolved, That he has manifested a deep
interest in the spiritual welfare of the
children who with all others to whom he
has ministered in both temporal and spir-
itual things, will remember HIM with
gratitude and tender solicituder.
Resolved, That we hereby tender him
our heartfelt thanks for his efficient work
and cordially commend him as an able,
earnest and faithful christian minister to
the confidence of people wherever he may
go. II. Blu ICHfSQN,

/ Judge Thomas-It was Waterloo for
4 the Democratic party sure enough; the
tickets seem to have swept everything be-
fore it, national, state and county; the Re-
publican ticket has carried in this county
from 500 TO l 800.
Judge Barrett-The result is as / ex
peeted: the Republicans have made gains
everywhere all over the country.
Frank Smith still have hope that
Democracy will carry New York: the re-
ports tonight are no more discouraging
than they were four years ago at this time.
Coleman 1ogers-I think everything
looks bright enough; l am not going to
give up New York to the Republicans yet.
Fred Bentley-The Republicans have
without doubt carried New York and we
are left.
j. II. Waddil-H srrison is elected and l
am glad OF it; l am not saying, however,
that l would net have been gladder still
ii Cleveland had won.
T. T. Hoffman, urrah for Harrison,
our next president
E. c. Beattie-The situation tonight is
much the same as it was this time four
years ago, and | have not yet given up
New York.
VIII Beatty was down to the Demo-
cratic headquarters this afternoon and they
looked pretty blue. | heard a voice say:
"Well, guess about the best thing we can
DO is TO go hang ourselves up as chromos
in the Republican headquarters" An
other fellow, who had evidently bet on his
political faith, said; well. have my
summer pants still and stand pretty good
. I ha
lieve if l could get them half-soled would
like to have some active, energetic RepUb-
lican 10 kick me all over the town"
Edward Vail am inclined to think
that Harrison has defeated Cleveland and
that Democracy is downed
Abe Wright am well satisfied with the
result and believed all along that Harrison
would be elected.
Fan Cotter-I expected that Cleveland
would be defeated from the time that the
fight for the mayor commenced in New
York CITY Tammany wanted control of
offices aud money: and there was more to
be obtained by the election of their mayor
than the election of President Cleveland.
Frank Cooper-That's all right; don't
care if you do smash my plug, the Demo
Gratis owe me five more. Give you one if
this one amt enough to sacrifice.
Arthur Carpenter-The Republicans en-
JOY this hugely; have not beenso happy for
years. Let the good news keep coming
c. l. Adams-This is the year for the
boys 20 vote the ticket straight. It's time
70 he doing that way and the boys did.
Dad Burnett-Oh had a dream SUM-.
day night that we would be defeated and
that Harrison would be elected.
Chairman DowniBg-Had never contegn-
plated such q victory in the
county. Always thought We would
elect the whole ticket, but this majority
ranging from one to two thousand is
simply more than most of US ever expected.
This was the year fer Republicans to vote
straight"
There are quite number of prominent
young Republicans who did hard and af-
fective county campaign work in the way
of speech making. They are receiving
compliments from the members of the
party and are quite glad to see such favor
able returns.

L must be remembered that the tendencies
Of the age, while leading people toward
towns, do not lead them to concentrate in any
single center, but rather TO the creation of q
series Of detached points Railways and
telegraphs make it easier TO live il cities, but
they also make it easier to so away from
them and create new cities. New York IS
far less Of metropolis on the American con-
tinent than was the case forty years ago. l
can remember when in travelling at the west
any intelligent person would buy New ork
daily paper twentyfour hours old in prefer
ence to any western paper of that very morn
ing The telegraph instantly changed all that:
the Omaha or Kansas City paper coataias
substantially the same Geographic news with
the New York dailies and the latter havo
shrunk to mainly local circulation. The
same process goes through everything, and
no matter how the self styled metropolis
grows, it is checked and limited By all other
cities. The same thing is true, to smaller
extent, in England itself; the American visi-
tor is surprised to find that to know eTen the
political currents of the nation one must
pow leol1 outside of London; Edinburgh is
reasserting itself, while Manchester and Bir-
mingham have emphatically their own opin-

William E. e,adstone.s Marvellous Memory.

Speakiss of William E Gladstone q re-
cent observer says: There is no subject on
which he will not talk. His memory is tho
marvel Of everybody WHO has been his asso-
ciate or acquaintance. Scare topic can DO
started on which he has not a store Of facts
He takes little thought Of his audience or Of
what may be supposed to interest them. His
subject interests him. and it never occurs to
him that it may rot interest Others. And he
is quite right. In his hands whatever it be
is entertaining. He has been known to dis
course to his neighbor through the greater
part of long dinner on the doctrine of
copyright and international copyright. His
neighbor was beautiful woman, who cared
60 more for copyright than for tie Chero-
KEGS. She listened TO him throughout with
unfailing delight. New York Wor!d.
