That's What's the Matter With Han
nah

What is the matter with Hannah?
The clock has just sounded eight.
And she fingers with stalwart Aleck
At the little garden gate
The milk in the pail is waiting:
She should be at her labor now,
But she's idling there in the twilight
Meath the apple trees dropping bough.
What is the matter with Hannah?
The shadows are growing deep;
There is WORK for her nimble fingers
The children are half asleep.
There's a minghng of all their voices
In a restless. fretful hum;
There's a call from the open window
For the maiden who doesn't come.
What is the matter with Hannah?
All she runs up the path at last,
And she comes with pretty flutter-
1t is not that she cauie so fast
Sweet Hannah, meath apples russell,
Where you fingered so very late,
Came the pleasant trouble that's on YOU
You were kissed at the garden gatel

The State Convention.

The state convention at Atlanta yester-
day got through with its business very
quickly. There was no reason why it
should have remained in session more than
few hours There was no contest for the
nominations for the different state offices.
The whole state agreed long ago that the
present officers should be reelected. They
have discharged their duties faithfully and
satisfactorily, and the people therefore
have no fault to find with them. OF course
they will be elected, and the people should
see to it that they receive a very large
vote. As this is a presidential year, the
voters will cast their ballots without a great
deal of urging
The presidential electors are all well
known men of high character and ability.
and their popularity will add strength to
the national democratic ticket Some, IL
not all, of them will take part in the can
vass this fall, doubtless, and will be active
in getting out large vote. There is no
doubt, of course, how Georgia will go, but
the empire state of the south should give
Cleveland and Thurman rousing ma jority.
Every democrat should feel as great an
obligation to cast his ballot as il the result
of the election depended upon this state.

Union With Canada Pronosed.

There is no probability that Senator Blair
of New Hampshire will permit himself to
be forgotten. He lies awake at night
doubtless devising schemes to keep himself
before the public. Judged by the number
of bills and resolutions he introduces, he
is very voluminous statesman The
small percentage of his productions which
receive serious consideration from the
senate would seem to indicate that his
efforts are not always appreciated at his
estimate of their worth.
The resolution he introduced a day or
two ago requesting the President to open ne
gotiations with the government of her Bri-
fannie majesty, with the view of not only
settling the differences between this coun-
try and Canada, but, also. to arrange the
terms of a political union between the
United States and the dominion, or any of
its provinces whose people may desire to
become citizens of this country, will attract
some attention in Canada, and perhaps in
England. In this country very little atten-
ton will be paid to it. About everybody
knows Senator Blair, and also knows that
his resolution will not be given second
thought by the senate.
In view Of the fact that all the republi-
can senators are now condemning the Presi-
dent for negotiating the fisheries treaty,
after the senate had declared in favor of
retaliation, it is rather strange that SEN
ator Blair should request him to go into the
treaty making business upon a much
grander scale than he has yet attempted.
England has not expressed any desire to
| loose her hold upon Canada, or any part of
| it, and the members of the English govern
| ment opened their eyes with surprise, doubt
less, when they heard of the proposition Of
the New Hampshire senator
But what makes the senator think that
the President would likely negotiate a
treaty of the kind which he proposes that
would be at all satisfactory to the republi-
can senates The President undertook to
settle the fisheries dispute, and he thought
that he had succeeded very well, but the
republican senators are, it seems, unani-
nous in the opinion that he did not.
MIR. Blair ought not to press his new and
startling schemes upon the senate during
this hot summer weather. He can afford
to wait until congress meets next winter,
and, in the meantime, he can get great
mass Of matter explaining his resolution
ready for the senate. He should give his
colleague, Mr.. Chandler, a chance to in
crease his reputation by working the out
rage mill in the senate. Messrs. Blair and
Chandler are very interesting pair of
senators. They have many good points,
and their state may be proud of them, but
it is doubtful If the country is.

TWO $1,000 CoFFINs.
Artistic Caskets of the Costliest De-
scrlption Awaiting Two Bostonians.
From, the Boston BUDGET.

From the boston budget.
In Boston nothing is held to be too good for
genteel corpse. Two collins just now in process
of construction by local manufacturers be
used some day by granddaughter of the
baron Of wurtemhurg and her husbaud-will
not cost less than $1,000 piece. They are made
of mahogany seven inches thick, carved in bold
relief with the most elaborate designs. All of
these are in some manner emblematic of death
On the panel spider-itself symbolic of the
grim destroyer-has caught the fly at last in a
web so delicately executed that you fear
TO breathe upon it, lest it blow away In an
other place griffin's claw supports human
skull, from fracture in which lizard is crawl

act OF capturing a mouse, and so on. the inten-
ton being 10 express the idea that death comes
soon OF late to every living thing. On the top
OF each coffin is carved coat OF arms, and
every available inch of the interior is beautified
by the cutting tools Inside these superb
caskets are swung two silken hammocks for the
eventful reception of the barons granddaughter
and her spouse. They are not dead yet, be it
understood. Quite otherwise. But, having no
end of money, they wish TO die regardless of
expense. A $4,000 mausoleum in local
cemetery will serve as receptacle for the
costly boxes

THE TRADE.

TNHE coming season promises to be a pros
l. porous one. notwithstanding it being q
campaign year and universally supposed to be
q bad one for business.
1t may may not be so, but there is one
thing we do know, and that is, the season now
quickly passing has been more than good with
us, and we owe it entirely to the manner of con-
Quoting our business
We do not trouble ourselves as to the ques-
ton of free trade or protection We leave that
for wiser heads than ours But we have little
platform of our own, in which you will find one
PET PLANK which we never change, and that
is THOUGHTFULNESS and CONSIDERATION
for the interest our customers and BIG BAR
GAINS for LITTLE MONEY. And how do we
accomplish it? you naturally ask. Our answer
is this In the first place, our method of con-
Quoting business is such that we cannot help
but succeed in our efforts to please and benefit
our customers. In the second place, the pleas
ure to each and every customer to know that
they are not paying

ministration of a President who has aimed
TO be the executive Of nation in the inter

her TO America. These willy fellows should

quite impatient because Mr.. Cleveland de-

that the letter will be sensible and states

Why do not the republican senators permit

anything TO offer in its place: They are keep
