as only question of time when one

Catlln had been drinking hard all

about the room for some time, when

succeeded in getting the pistol pointed
toward Catlin, when he fired, the ball
striking Catlin under the left arm and
shattering his shoulder blade. Cook

wounded mans head, scattering his
brains all over the room. Catlin lived
an hour in an unconscious condition.
Cook then walked out and gave him.

other roads would combine and serve
notice on the Chicago, Burlington and
Quincy that they had done so for the
protection of the business interests of
the country, as well as for the protec-
ton of their own interests. The fact
is that there is great danger to the
whole country in the present situa-
ton. If there should be general
strike every thing would be paralyzed.
and if the brotherhood should be de-
stroyed, a great danger would threaten
the country which perhaps few have

Chief Arthur is defeated in this con-
test, and either the radical element
gain permanent control, or the reor
ganization is broken into fragments

Hope.

Sweet mocking maid, she wakes and smile
When winds are hushed and skies serenel
The air grows soft beneath her tread,
And where her radiant looks are shed
The leaves are greener.
We see a tang'e OF bright hair,
A round white arm extended;
We catch the Fragrance, family sweet.
OF breezy robes about her feet,
With roses blended.
Where'er her vagrant fancy leads
We follow gladly after;
We seem to clasp her maynard charms;
She melts from our embracing arms
With airy laughter.
She weaves rainbow in the air,
And while we gaze, delighted,
She tears the fabric into shreds
And scatters far the floating threads.
No more united.
She turns away her yelled face,
In sudden mood capricious;
But while we mourn the dismal shroud,
Breaks forth, like sunlight from a cloud,
Her smile delicious.
She plays thousand teasing tricks;
Full fain we are to flOut her;
Yet, spite of all, our hearts confess
Life had not half its loneliness
Were we without her.

Ia the London Standard is an account
of German doctors Investigations as
to the size OF mems ard women's hearts.
The masculine heart weighs more an1 is
larger than that possessed by the fair
sex. A heart, it would appear, grows
most quickly during the first and Sec
ond years of life, and between the sec
ond and seventh year it doubles in size.
Until after the fftieth birthday the
heart still grows little. In childhood
the male and female heart are the same
siz,; but after manhood the masculine
heart develops much more than the fe-
male, ard ends by being two square
inches larger than the latter.
