The Tenth Districts Gain.

The Ledger and the Knoxville
Journal might have mentioned
Hardeman and Upton also. They
did something at any rate in the
late election.
Ii may nos have occurred to all
our democratic readers that tour
counties, two OF them in the Tenth
Congress- Jnal District. saved Ten
nessee from going republican. TO
demonstrate this, we will use for
convenience sake, some figures
made up by the Knoxville Journal
a repA blican paper. The returns
show that Taylor ran behind
Cleveland in the state 2O07 votes,
and that Hawkins received seventy
1--WE votes more than were cast for
Harrison.
The net democratic gains were in
four counties-Snelby, Fayette,
Haywood and Madison. The total
vote In Shelby county was 70, 252,
aud the net democratic gain $500.
The total vote in Fayette was A.
1893, and the net democratic gain
S,74l. The total vote in Haywood
was 3,746, and the net democratic
gain 1868. The total vote Of
Madison was 4,74T, and the net
democratic gain 1884.
The total vote of the four cOun-
ties named was 33,47S, and the
net democratic gain 1883, or a
little more than thirty three and one
third per cent. Had the same ra-
ito of gain prevailed throughout the
state, the net democratic gain would
have been 97,915.
Had these four conntles voted as
they did IN the Presidential election
four years ago, Harrison's plurality
in the State would have been over
$500.
The Journal, of course, thinks
there WAS rAscality. aud says that but
for the change in these counties Ten
nessee would have gone repubIica I

Triumph of Innocence.

In history as well as fiction the assassin
commissioned to take some innocent per-
son into lonely place for execution often
becomes so attracted to his victim that he
refuses to commit the deed. Such cases
find an amusing but also somewhat pathetic
parallel in an account TO be found in Serb
neT's Magazine, of lambs influence over
his would-be betrayer:
/ was i'll that summer, and the doctor
had ordered me to go into the woods, but
on no account to go without plenty of
fresh meat, which was essential to my re-
covery.
So we set out into the Wild country
north of Georgian Bay, taking live lamb
with us, in order to be sure that the doc
tors prescription should be faithfully fol-
lowed. 1t was a gentle and confiding little
beast, curling itself up at my feet in the
canoe and following me about on the
shore like dog. l gathered grass every
day to feed it, and carried it in my arms
over the rough portages. 1t ate out of my
hand, and rubbed its woolly head against
my leggings.
To my disnlay, found that | was be-
ginning to love it for its own sake, and
without any Interior motives. The thought
of killing and eating it became more and
more painful to me, until at length the
fatal fascination was complete, and my trip
became practically an exercise Of devotion
to that lamb. carried it everywhere,
and ministered fondly to its wants. Not
for the world would l have alluded to NUT
ton in its presence.
When we returned to civilization, /
parted from the creature with sincere re,
greet, and the consciousness that / had hui
mored my affections at the expense of my
digestion.

LEAP YEAk,s LAST NOTCH.

Young Lionel, the truth to tell,
Called somewhat oft on Isabel
Twas hard to say, from day TO day,
With what precise intent he went
Mid persifiage and badinage,
Sped on the hours, and not sign
There was of motive or design,
Nor any trace of sentiment.
Now Isabel, who liked him well,
Was fain to hasten Lionel
In proper way, to plainly say
Exactly what intent he meant.
For persifage and badinage
Amuse one, but they give no sign
OF matrimonial design,
If unalloyed with sentiment.
So Lionel, it soon befell,
Observed change in Isabel.
She turned away from trifies gay,
Her manner, coy but gentle, lent
To persifage and badinage
A subtle meaning. and sign
OF something-if 'twere not design
Decidedly like sentiment.
Thus Isabel contrived so well
That, pleased and fiattered, Lionel
Became one day her willing prey;
For, knowing not her bent, he went
Left persinage and badinage-
And plumply said to her. q Be mine %
Since then, 'twere fair TO state, III fine,
No lack there is of sentiment

THE PILGRIMAGE.

Long years ago the heart of a King
Was carried in state like a royal thing
To the Holy Land, where he longed to go.
Did living desires round his dead heart cling;
And could they be satisfied so?
How strange it seems that Kings in their pride
Have lived thwarted lives like ours, and have
died
With the thing that they longed TO do undone,
Till, uuconquered, some from the grave have
cried
For their hearts to be carried on
Yet never King had such a stake
AS |, in the journey long to make
To a land. alas where may not go;
But my heirt must be carried there or break
Whether living or dead, know.
Come, yellow haired little boy of mine
Let me see your face, where your young hopes
shine
You're loving, my darling. and strong and
true;
You II journey, while l vainly long and pine,
So my heart will send with you.
For yearn to follow your life, my sweet;
lis 4 long, hard way for your eager feet,
And can go only a little part;
But. dear, till your pilgrimage is complete,
VIII you carry your mothers heart?

sunstrOkc and Its Treatment-sOmcthiu
Every Ono Should Learn by Heart.
The usual symptoms indicating an attack
of sunstroke are described as full heavy
feeling In the head, dizziness, ringing in the
ears, deranged vision, faintness and difficult
breathing; but sometimes the patient falls
unconscious without any Of these symptoms
being present and without the slightest warn
ing. In severe cases death may ensue In a
few hours. Those who recover do SO slowly
and continue to be greatly Frustrated for
some time after, dizziness and faintness COM
ing on after the slightest mental effort,
while the full, distressed feeling in the head
continues for months afterward
Sunstroke is best avoided by Immediately
ceasing all mental and physical effort as
soon as the first symptoms of pros
tration are felt, and, above all, by
avoiding the drinking of ice water when
overheated. The head should be pro-
tected by sunshade, and care should be
taken to keep the digestive organs healthy
by using light food. When the attack occurs
the patient should be removed to a cool place
and placed in recumbent position; cold
water or ice bags should be applied to the
head, and mustard paste, capsicum or other
stimulants to the extremities and over the
stomach. Hartshorn should be held to the
nose, and as soon as the patient can swall
an ounce Of brandy, with ten drops OF es-
sence of ginger, should be swallowed. When
begins the patient must be
kept as quiet as possible and all exposure to

The Story of HOrntius.

The cities of Rome and Alba being at war
1t was agreed that the three Roman brothers,
Horatii, and the three Alban brothers, Curl.
atii, should decide the quarrel by q combat
in sight of the two armies. Two Of the Ho-
ratii were soon slain and the three Curl
atii wounded. The last one Of the Horatii
pretended to fly and the three Curiatii fol-
lowed as each was able. When Horatius
saw that they were pursuing apart from each
other he turned upon them and slew them
one by one. Horatius marched back to
Rome at the head of the army, and when his
sister, who was the betrothed of one of the
Curiatii, saw the latter's cloak upon her
brothers shoulder she wept at his death.
Horatius, in anger, drew his sword and
stabbed her to the heart, saying: $50 perish
the Roman maiden who shall weep for her
countrys enemy!" For this he was con-
demned to death, but was afterward par
doned on account Of the service he had rem.
dered to Rome.

Women are said to be best dressed when it
is most difficult to describe what they wear,
and a gown which has created a sensation at
recent ball may not assert its singular
grace of arrangement in description. The
bodice and skirt were entirely white MORE,
the skirt wide and full, draped with soft fall
ing crepe de Chine, blended and softened by
tulle and punches of May blooms, all caught
up with bows of tender green ribbon. A
married woman, who is celebrated for her
toilettes, appeared in a gown Of the richest
faille nouvelle, which almost stands by itself
The gown has elbow sleeves, and a pointed
bodice, the skirt was yelled with Chantilly
lace, which incased the bust, and was carried
down the back of the bodice, meeting the
braces on the skirt. As the wearer advanced
you noticed that the front of the gown was
bordered with heavy garniture of tulle, on
which the lace rested. 1t SO exactly suited
its owner that every line in it seemed to orig
mate in some trait of figure, and to develop
some latent grace.

SOCIAL ETIQUETTE.

The Bright and Pretty Finale That May
Conclude the Solemn Church Wedding.
Among bright and pleasant variations to
the solemn pomp of church wedding, social
etiquette of New York heartily approves Of,
though it does not prescribe, the strewing of
flowers in the path of a young couple as they
go away from the altar. Little girls cos
TUNED in white, with baskets of blossoms,
rise up like unsupported fairies while the
clergyman is congratulating the bride. and
slowly drop roses down the aisle to the car
riage. Sometimes garlands of flowers that
have been hidden somewhere are suddenly
seen stretched across the aisle at brief inter-
walls by little maidens who stand Oh the seats
at the end of the pews, and lift their pretty
arms high in air to swing their roses over the
pathway of the bridal party.
Sometimes. instead of garlands. they toss
rose leaves in crimson, gold and white, from
the same high positions, all over the out
going procession Many other devices, fam
ciful and charming, may be added to the
brief brightness of the moment.
