summer is wonderful when we think Of

II is told Of one lady that she dressed
for church in a beautiful, but heavy''cos-
tune Of velvet and silk, and her husband
looked at her and said:
"lsnt that gown rather uncomfortable

missing manner.

Although the fashion plates do not
show it very clearly, yet there are two
reforms slowly working. and one IS IN

den to hold up their heads in the consci-

"Such record in full view, what must
be the conclusion in the minds of work
ingmen, of railroad men of Indiana, of the
whole country? What it will be may oc-
casion debate; what it ought to be does not
admit of discussion. / make no appeal to
the passions of men. IF the blouses of the
railroad men of 1877 are without rents
made by bullets and bayonets, no feeling
of gratitude is due to Benjamin Harrison;
if striker for justice escaped felon's cell,
it was not because Gen. Harrison's tongue
was silent; and if the mad passions of men
in 1877 did not glow like heated steel,
their escape from fire and slaughter is not
due to any pacific words or acts of Benia-
min Harrison. Around him, in the homes
of his neighbors, were empty dinner buck
cts and empty -four barrels. The cry was
for bread and meat, for clothes, for the
necessaries of life. Harrison did not hear
the cry. 1t was drowned by fife and drum
and the tramp of soldiers. Is it the con-
clusion that workingmen will vote for him?
Will workingmen forget, ever forget, when
the swelling veins on his brow throbbed
with the hot blood of his vengeance?
There are wrongs which to forget makes
forgetfulness crime. The vices of men
should be as monumental as their virtues.
He who ruthlessly adds poiguancy to the
pangs of poverty is monster, and he who
strikes down the humblest soldier in the
dinner bucket brigades of the world that
he may curry favor with the oppressors of
the poor should no more be forgotten than
a Nero or an Arnold, and whether dead or
alive, whether as gigantic as the Colossus
of Rhodes or as pygmean as Gen. Harri-
son, they should ever stand in front of the
fires of mems fierce indignation while right
and justice have champion on earth"

A Lady's wonderful Memory.
From the. Critic. Auaust II.

From the. Critic, 4ugust IL.
A most remarkable instance of memory
has Just come to my notice. Its possessor
is lady member of DIR. Howard Crosby's
church, in New York Without having
taken single note, she will, when she goes
home, write out every word Of her pastors
sermon, and she tells me she never makes
a mistake of s'the'' or an "and'-that
every sentence not only embodies his idea,
but gives it in his exact language. For 25
years this lady has been performing these
feats of memory, and during that time she
has written out some 1000 sermons. The
manuscripts of some of them she has had
bound and presented to DR.. Crosby. They
make 40 large volumes But this is not
all of her devoted labors; she has written
out, also from memory, all Of his lectures,
and she has classified his opinions on all
the subjects upon which he has spoken
during these years, and has made an elab-
crate series of indexes to them. Not
word is omitted. Even when the preacher
drops into Greek, Latin or Hebrew, she
follows him, for she is proficient in each
Of these languages. | doubt that Macau-
lay could have achieved more than this
with even his marvellous mnemonic powers.
Yet the lady does not seem to think she
done anything remarkable.
