Presidential Preferences In massacnu,

setts.
A canvass ofthe Massachusetts Leg
islature has disclosed the tact that
most OF its members are unwilling TO
give their presidential preferences for
publication. The canvass last year
brought out replies from 20 per cent.
OF the membership, bu this year less
than 20 per cent. are willing TO state
their views. Only 90 Democrats give
their preferences, and these are all for
Cleveland, whereas last year Governor
Hill had number of supporters, The
unAnimity in favor of Cleveland is the
most striking fact brought out in the
psesent canvass. Blaine is still first,
with Sherman far behind in the sec.
ond place and Hawley right after him
There are many Republican member:
OF the upper branch who have not ye
made up their minds.
One Senator put Blaine first with
Sherman second, with the proviso tina
he may change his mind. Anothe
man puts Blair ahead of Sherman
while still another thinks Sherman
and Sheridan would sweep the coun

Somebody ought to write a novel
about people with these black OF dark
blue eyes which arc transparent as
so many Swiss pebbles. They are eyes
Of intensely passionate natures, strong
for good or evil, but with. tendencies the
wrong way, the eyes of born devils in
human shape. When such dull dark
eyes show the red light that comes OF
caution insanity in its first stages is at
work on the brain, and such man or
woman needs care life long, or some
crisis Of trouble may lead to an outbreak
of madness. Ii is the eve of one likely
in frenzy - commit manslaughter.
The most beautiful eyes in the world
are the clear gray, with large pupils,
and iris which changes and darkens with
feeling as from the shadow Of cloud.
The steadiness. brilliance and suscepti-
billy Of such eyes are index to the rarest
Intelligence. quick and accurate, and tho
high romantic sentiments which in such
characters become passions. Truth, lib
crafty, loyalty, are the vital breath Of
such spirits, but alas! those eyes are not
Of the long lived. Dust is over them al
most before we can say We have known
them for our own. The blush white of
the eye betokens consumption before its
hectic brightness alarms with unearthly
beauty, and the loss Of color in the pupil,
turning brown instead Of black, is caused
by heart disease. Shirley Dare's Letter.

amazed T. fad that she could not re-

She was calm and sane except upon
this point; her memory Of persons seemed
t. be suddenly and wholly obliterated.
She hastily descended to the room
where the family was gathered for
dinner. and found that she could
not remember 4 single name or
face, except ,hat Of her mother. Her
father. sisters and bnothcrs appeared TO
her a3 strangers. nor was il possible 10
recall them 10 her. The faculty Of mem
DRY Of persons appeared to be paralyzed.
1t WAS found by the physicians that this
singular effect was produced by the l0dg-
mcnt Of q clot Of blood upon a certain
