UNREST.

Tho farther you journey and wander
From the sweet simple faith Of your youth,
The more you peer into the Yonder
And search for the root Of all truth,
No matter what secrets uncover
Their vailed mystic brows in your quest,
Or close on your astral sight hover,
Still, still shall you walk with unrest
II you seek for strange things you shall find
them, EH
But the finding shall bring you to grief;
The dead lock the portals behind them,
And he who breaks through Is thief.
The soul with such ill-gotten plumber,
With its premature knowledge oppressed,
Shall grope In unsatisfied wonder
Away by the shores of unrest.
Though bold hands lift up the thin curtain
That hides the unknown from our sight;
Though q shadowy faith becomes certain
OF the new life that follows deaths night;
Though miracles past comprehending
Shall startle the heart in your breast,
Still, still viii your thirst be unending, :.
And your soul will be sad with unrest.
There are truths too sublime and too holy
To grasp with mortal minds touch.
We are happier far TO be lowly;
Content means not knowing too much.
Peace dwells not with hearts that are yearnine
To fathom m labyrinths unguessed,
And the soul that is bent on vast learning
Shall find with its knowledge-unrest.
-Ello Wheeler Witcor, IN Lippinc0fs.

could use them; but her thoughts were
all of the two lost children. All that
night. exhausted as she was. she
scarcely slept. o, if she had but
watched them more closely! So she re-
preached herself. while to every one
else it seemed little less than miracle
that she had been able to save so many
of her charges.
1t was nearly three days before the
wind died away, 50 that word could be
taken to poor. widowed Mrs. Wood.
She had feared the worst, yet the news
came with crushing force; for however.
much we may expect death, we are
never prepared for its actual presence.
For weeks she found herself often look
ing out of the window. half expecting
to see Mary and Willie coming home
again after school.
The whole neighborhood turned out,
as soon as the storm was over, and
worked day after day. shoveling over
the snow. But all proved in vain. and
it was not till spring that the little
bodies were found. buried under one of
the largest drifts. several rods from the
road Evidently the children had lost
their hold on the others while crossing
the little brook. and the wind had car
ried them down the bed of the run and
lodged them against steep bank in
the field. where the snow soon packed
its cold and pitiless weight upon them.
Poor little brother and sister! Their
hands were still tightly clasped. With
all their childish strength they had
striven to obey their teacher and ''keep
together" and together they had gone
home. on the wings of the wild. wintry
tempest-Mrs. L. j. Strong, in Youth's

MERE oBsTRucTloNIsTs.

rhe DecayIng and CrumblIng Condition
OF the Republican Party.
Time was when Republican party
ism stood for something. But since
the election of President Cleveland it
has become political negation. For
three years the Republicans in Con-
gress have proved the merest obstruc-
tionists. They have acclaimed in their
platform and from the stump against
the accumulation of the surplus and
the continuance Of oppressive taxation,
but in Congress they have contented
themselves with opposing the consid-
Grafton of bills brought forward by the
Democrats for the abolition Of reduc-
ton of unnecessary taxes On the
great economical question of the time
they have not attempted to formulate
any positive policy.
When the President was confronted
with vacancy on the bench Of the
United States Supreme Court and un-
dertook to fill it by an appointment
from the circuit in which the vacancy
existed, they pursued their modern
tactics of obstruction. They raised
the groundless and ridiculous objection
to the appointments Of Judge Lamar
that his sympathies are Southern. In
fact, they made sectional plea for his
rejection by the Senate when the APP
poin:ment was necessarily sectional.

mo taxation for surplus" was the
Presidents admirable message to Con-
gress and the country. In spite of the
protests of the ablest Republican think
ers and journalists Of the country, the
Republican politicians and Presiden-
tial candidates have joiued issue for
the campaign ON this point Both
Blaine and Sherman, differing widely
in other things. have agreed that tax
alton for surplus is not unconstitu-
tional; not unjust; not illegal; not ex-
tortionate; not dangerous to financial
stability; not destructive Of commerce
and trade; not onerous to the mercan-
tile classes; not burdensome to work

leaders in Congress. Although two OF
the most prominent Republican men,
beers of the Committee .on Elections
had joined the Democratic members OF
the committee in reporting to the
House that Mr. Thoebe had not made

" entitled to his seat and that there
was no groufd for a reopening OF the
case, and although these Republican
members of tbe committee addressed
the House in speeches unequivocally
and emphatically in favor of confirm

trick Of obstrdcting the adoption Of the

honor to moot congress of ten-year-old
school-boys. seized the opportunity TO
leave the House without quorum by
sitting silent in their seats when the
vote on the contested election case
was taken. When brought to book
they based their obstructive action on
the false ground that the case ought to
be reopened in order TO enable Thoebe
to take further testimony A most
transparent subterfuge. but sufficient
in the judgment Of such eminent states
men as Tom Reed and Tom Browne to
cover their deceit. Mr.. Thoebe has
had more than year to take his testi-
mony. As was proved before the COM
mlttce, his attorney had plenty Of
money to rake over the district for evil
dence. But he utterly failed in his at
tempted assault on The election re-
turns which gave Mr.. Carlisle the seat,
and two honest Republican members Of
the Committee on Elections declared
that Mr.. Thoebe had not laid any
ground for reopening Of the case.

A FUNNY EPISODE.


An Esquimau Medicine Mans Astonish-
mont and Fright.
There was another episode which
these peculiar people seemed to eonsid-
err as huge joke. which will explain
as briefly as possible, to show what the
native people consider rs funny in the
frigid zones. One of the Esquimau
men had peculiarly disfigured face.
to which he pointed SO often that one of
the party was finally led to ask him the
cause. He most cheerfully assented to
explain, amidst the grins and suppressed
laughter of the others. When he was
young boy he was one of small band
of natives that came upon the remains
of one of Sir John Franklin's unfortu-
nate parties, that had starved to death,
and they found many curious things
among the scattered material at the
site of the sad scene. One, which inn
mediately tookrhis boyish eye, was a
fiattened can that he found, full of
"black sand" as he expressedit. The
"black sand" was of no possible
use to him. and. on the first occasion he
had to utilize the can, which was one
winter evening. when he was sitting
by the lamp in his snow-house, he
poured this useless material out on
the platform of snow that held the lamp,
and in doing so some of it splashed in
the fame. There was an instantaneous
explosion, which he tried to explain by
yelling ''boom," until thought the
top of my head had been knocked of.
and when some of the shock had passed
away he found that the top of his snow
hut had disappeared in the dark night,
the stone lamp was broken into pieces,
and the kitchen utensils and parlor
furniture all mixed up. He was a medi-
cine man of the tribe-that is. one sup
posed to cure sickness by magic, incan-
tations, tc.-and at the time the pow
der-cau exploded patient was visiting
him. who disappeared in the confusion,
and his whereabouts was not known
for a month or two afterward. when he
turned up in another tribe farther south,
whose doctors, he claimed. were not
of such pyrotechnic school of medi-
cine. The medicine man said that his
own nervous system was badly shat
tered for a long time, and his hands and
face were fearfully SCARED as evidence
of his story, but If his appetite was at
all injured he had more than fully re-
covered, for he was the most enormous
