PARKERsBUEG, July 25.-The Fourth
District Democratic Congressional Conven-
ton has finished its work, and Jadge j.
M. Jackson is the nominee. The coaven-
ton will be memorable. II was enthusi-

harmonious. No political battle was ever
wsged more warmly in Fourth district
nominating convention. As it had been
predicted it was the field against Jackson
aud the dual combination from the south
ern end of the district was all but strong
enough to compass his defeat. The dele

The land Where Our Dreams Come
True

W. shall find the lost treasures we seek for
Revealed In that wonderful snhsrat '
All the aims and the dreams of the bv-,opa
All the good that eluded us here:
1he Innocent faiths of our childhood
lhe one hameless friendship we knaw
Arrayed In our banished illusions
IN the land where our dreams come true
We know in divinest fulfiIlment
Our vain hopes are gathered at home:
Inc jewels we moarn here are boarded
Where the moth and tina rust cannot
come;
Aud Oft when the sunset is faintest
We catch through rift in the blue
a far-away glimpse Of the glories
VI the land where our dreams come true.
There are garnered the prayers Of our
mothers,
And the soft, cradle songs that they
sung;
There they move in the mist. with white
garments
And faces Immortality young.
Aud out of the mists Of the river
dew,
That leads through the valley of shadow.
To the land where our dreams come true.
SO, weeping. we lay down our idols.
And bury our loves out of sight
Though we know in our hearts we shall
hud them
by and by il the Mansion of Light.
ANA The salt tears that fall on their ashes
And blossom in pansy and rue,
over there shall be lilies immortal,
In the land where our dreams come true.

A Far-oT Glimpse of Jenny Li.id.

"What L remember was In my bib
and-tucker days, and at the house of
an Irish bishop where l was visitor.
Jenny Lind had come to spend the
| Sunday, and had been to church twice
before q O'Clock dinner. 1 did not see
her until dessert, and thought. when L
| first saw her head across table orna-
ment, that she was a lazy of about 20.
| She looked very like those itInerant
musicians who give open-air concerts
| in summer at watering places, and had
the kind of fair hair in which there is
little or no gold. There was something
very staid, composed and strong minded
In her mien and general appearance
and she was entirely different IN char
acter from all other members of the
company. Her manners were distant
at least SO L thought-but they did
not repel, and L remember watching
her at distance in the hope of CATCH
ing her eye and being asked to go and
stand beside her; but did not succeed.
Her dress was of brown silk, of hue
then called London SMOKE and plain
in the skirt, but made with a gathered
body. From what | Tecollect of her
demeanor, she must have been con-
centrated, and, though she talked with
ease, she did not show conye Tsational
disposition. | heard 1t said that she
was very earnest, and had deep religious
feeling, and now fancy that the remark
be justified.
After dinner she was TO sing from
the "Melodia Sacra." Some young
ladies and a few male yocalists, who
belonged to the Organ-lOft of cathe-
dral, improvlsed a concert with her.
Sha did NOT rt N "a snraScad I Waa
too young to be an analyst of a voice,
or to know why one pleased me. But
this L remember, that Jenny Lind af-
forded me new and delicious sensation
Her singing SO affected me that l burst
out crying, and as it was thought that
| cried because l was sleepy. L was
| lbeing too shamefaced to explain my
feelings) sent to bed,
There was so little sleepineSs in me,
and l was so veXed at the summary
! judgment passed upon me, that l went
| on crying when i was IN my cot. Jenny
Lind, at the hour when the company
| was to 60 away, came into the room
where was. She saw me wide awake,
and asked me If / was the little sleepy
child; then came over TO me and whis-
pered, "Why do you cryp" 1 put my
arms around her neck and answered, +,
Because your voice is so NICE" She
laughed and said, THAT can't be. We
only cry when things are ugly and un-
pleasant" l, thinking she considered
me little fbster, cried again and then
was able to get out: 1.-the Babes in
the Wood is very nice to read, yet It
makes me cry so fearfully that grand
mamma mas taken it from me and
locked 1t up" Jenny Lind said:
you're dear child. When l come
back I'll bring you such pretty toy
and sing on purpose for you" She
never did come back, and SO 1 never
got the toy. 1 heard her years after at
a concert. The earnestpess and con.
centration had hardened into severity.
But there was beautiful emotion be-
hind the voice. 1t had lost note here
and there, but where it was intact il
was silyery beyond expression.

Cunning Chinese Burglars

The ladder OF the Chinese burglar Is,
In ordinary appearance. nothing more
than a bamboo pole, such as every
laborer uses in carrying burdens; but
1t is in reality hollow, as all bamboos
are, OF course, and through it runs a
rope which is so arranged that at each
joint of the bamboo IL connects with
another rope, forming a loop. These
loops can be drawn taut and concealed,
so that when the thief carries this lad
der on the street it is d simple and
honest appearing pole; but when
needed II Is set against the wall TO be
scaled, the rope is slackened, and by
the loops thus formed the thief mounts
the wall and enters the building TO be
plundered. Thus EARNED and equip

\ friend OF the writer, for many
years resident of Peking, awoke one
winter night, some ten years ago,
shivering with the cold, and found al
the clothes slipping from the bed. He
replaced them and fell asleep. In an
hour he awoke again for tue same rea-
son, again replaced the bedding, and
again went to sleep. In another hour
he awoke to find himself absolutely
without any covering, though the bed

Each time that the occupant of the

great GOODNESS aud presence of mind

thief, he could spring from the bee
upon the back of the intruder thus BEN

upon the thief and succeeded in clasp

A Pointer for street Car Men.

The gripmen and conductors of cable

their feet and legs warm during the

sack, open at both ends, is shipped up
to the knees, next to the skim.

A Little Too Smart,

quick, a splendid..manager and all that.
He had an exalted opinion of himself.
and frequently made himself disagree
able by remarking to his associates that
the concern could not possibly ge,
along without him. This came to the
ear of the senior partner, and the old
gentleman called the clerk into the pr.
vate Office and said: "Mr. jenkins, you
have been very efficient and we appre-
ciaDe your services, but we hear that
you have repeatedly asserted that if
you were to die the concern couldn't
possible survive 1t, and this has wor-
ried both myself and partner very
much, fer you, like all men, are liable
to die very unexpectedly. We have,
therefore, concluded to experiment
while we are in health and See if the
concern Will survive your absence"
