These divers and contradic-
tory demands of the period call
for a great deal of attention. 1t
seems a paradox that much cur

be divided between the things
for midsummer and midwinter.

Herman Haines, a resident OF Utica,
Minnesota, has slept almost continually
for seven years. He has been treated In u
dozen different ways, but no one has been
able to break his protracted slumber. Pow
erful electric batteries have been applied
to his body, the only effect being con-
| traction OF the muscles. Haines is now
forty y-nine years old, and ten years ago was
a prosperous farmer in st. Clair county,
Ill. At that tire he was hale and hearty,
his weight being 1870 pounds.
In 1877 be was stricken with fever and
ague, and in the Spring Of 1880 moved to
st. Charles, Winona county, whence he
was brought to Utica. A few months af.
ter his arrival In the State he fell asleep.
and he has lived in this strange condition
for more than seven years.
In the summer of 1884 he swoke one
morning, arose from his bed, put on his
clothes and went about his work. When
told that he had slumbered four years he
grew indignant and would not believe that
he had slept more than a night, until led
hair and beard and sunken cheeks and
eyes. For month his health and habits
semeed perfect. He went to bed at the
usual hour, slept through the night and
arose with the lark.
| In August, 1884, his wife became very
i'll, and Haines was obliged TO deprive him.
self Of needed rest. One night, while tax.
ing her cup Of tea, he suddenly fell
asleep, dropped the cup, sank to the fiooi
and had to be taken to his bed, from which
he mas never since risen. He lies on his
back, breathes naturally, and suffers little
pain, but is wasting away. His weight is
now less than ninety pounds, and he is nc
longer able to move himself in bed.
About eleven o'clock every evening he
awakes for five or six minutes, during
which time he is hurriedly given sof
boiled egg, little soup and a swallow o,
two Of coffee, his only daily nourishment
He is extremely nervous during his brie
waking intervals, but his conversation in
dicates that his mind is not beclouded

Few events in history are more wonder
fui and more agreeable to contemplate
than the complete appeasement of the
mortal eumity Of the American Civil War.
1t is highly satisfactory when populations
consent to forget Or be silent about dis

Communities which have suffered Or in
f1lcted Injuries, OK both, may discover new
interests. Which supelsede bYgone grudges.
The remarkable feature of the existing
relations between the North and South III
the United States.is the presence of very
vivid memory of the past conflict, with
an entire, or ali but entire absence of the
rancor it might have been supposed to
perpetuate. The American people at large
has agreed to regard the exploits of the
great civil war as common nation i
treasure. The pOrtent ,us scale on which
Federals and Confedera tns were VI llir

their respective views has grown to be

kindly volunteered to do SO. The first
returns received from the Stanton pre-
cincts were greeted with much cheering
by Mr.. Yost's friends, but they soon
quoted down under the favorable Tucker
news from the county. The doubtful char
acter of the early returns from the North
prevented any marked demonstration from
either party, though there were at least
thousand men and women gathered around
the VlNDICAToR headquarters watching
the stereopticon thowIug out its news and
presenting views. The pony express run
by Mr.. Alex. Hartman, brought the news
to the press from the county precincts,
with promptness, and by midnight the
vote CT the county was known. The
absence. Of decisive news fron elsewhere,
however. dulled the ardor OF those who
were waiting. and by O'Clock everybody
