o YE SWEET HEAvENSi

c ye sweet heavensl your silence is t, me More than all music. With what full delight come down to my dwelling blythe sea And look out from the lattice on the nighti There the same glories burn serene and brighs AS in my boyhood; and if I am old Are they not alsos Thus my spirit is bold To think perhaps we are coeval. Who Can tell when first my faculty began Of thought? Who knows but was there with
 you
 When first your Makers mind, celestial spheres, Contrived your motion ere was Q manY Else, wherefore do mine eyes thus fill with tears As I, o Pleiadesi your beauty scans

THAT the staff of the DEMocRAT-editors reporters, type-stickers, carrier boys and all-may eat their Thanksgiving turkey at peace with themselves, with no thought of toll or travail to sit like spectre at the festive board, we will take vacation to morrow. The DEMOCRAT will not be pub lishsd on Thanksgiving day.

THERE is more wind than wisdom in this talk of going behind the returns in Virginia. Going behind the returns would prove pretty awkward business for Matt Quay and hislieutenants. Their methods wouldn't look we'll with the electcir light turned on.

THE tramp need not be without an oc- cupation in America, There is said to be over ninety-three million gallons of whfskey in the country awaiting consumption. And a acertain plank in the republican platform ought'to be encouraging to the tramp.

THE great loss of life off the New Eng land coast in Sundays gale will tinge with melancholy the joys of Thanksgiving, While most of us will rejoice in the bless ings that shed their brightness upon us let us drop a tear and prayer for the stricken ones whose hearts are bowed under their heavy affiiction.

THE RED BANDANA


 We believe in thaa part of Belva's plat form published in the DEMOCRAT referring to education, the lack of which is shown by her grammar. But the demand that every husband buy Shoninger Piano or Organ for his wife entirely destroys her chances. Oh, Belva, would you destroy family ties throughout our land? No The Red Bandana will be used for the next four years in dusting such Fine Pianos as Mason & Hamlin, Boardman & Gray, Baus, and Wilcox & White and New Eng land Organs. A company with business stability is preferred to the hireling of a manufacturer who sells Pianos for new ones and few months later claims they were manufactured long years ago.

NEW YORK, April 23.-The banquet at

but one regular toast, "rhe Day We

responded, referring to Grant, his life
and times in a touching manner. Gen.
w. 7. Sherman presided, and on either
side of him sat Mayor Hewitt and Mr..
Depew.
When the orator oc the evening finished
his address and the applause had sub

gentlemen to speak, and among those
who responded were Bob Ingersoll, E. S.

BIG METHODIST CONFERENCE
LARGEST EVER HELD in THIS COUN-
TRY BEGINS IN NEW YORK.
EILLGATES ARE EPEE%F Mt FROM ALL
POINTS OF THE WORLD.

The Body Mec"s I:ut Once in -Four Years,
Women Occupy Seats in the Confer
ence. and Their Eight Thereto will BE
Brought Up and Passed Upon.
NEW York, May. 2.-The general con
ference of the Methodist church opened
at the Metropolitan opera house with a
vast attendance. Bishop Bowan pre-
sided and conducted exercises, bishops
Fows, Foster, Wallar and Warren, DR..
Quinn and Chaplain McCabe assisting.
This body meets but once in four years,
and the present is the largest conference
that has ever been held in this country by
the Methodist denomination. Four hum
dred and fifty delegates are in attend
ance from all parts of the United States.
Among them are several women, who oc-
cupy for the first time seats in the con-
ference of the Methodist church.
A large amount of important business
will be transacted during the session,
and at the outset there is likely to be an
interesting controversy relative to the
ii ,ht Cf women to SIT as delegates. The
conferences represented by the fair sex
are those from Minnesota, Nebraska,
Pittsburg ard Rock River.
All the bishops are in attendance at
the conference, including Missionary
Bishop Taylor, who has done such won
derful work in Africa and other foreign
fields. He will probably be made q resi-
dent bishop: as a recognition Of his ser
vices. OF the delegates some come from
Norway. Sweden, India, Germany,
China, Japan and Africa. The ses-
sion will occupy month, and sew
eral new bishops will be elected. The
question Of establishing bishoprics III IN
dia, China and Japan will be considered
and the colored Methodists will renew
their demand for II bishop of their own
race. The most picturesque delegate is
STA Sex Ong, OF China, Il man of COM
manding presence and great eloquence,
appearing in full oriental costume.
