To Drain Chicago.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, December 1S.-Last
week an election was held in this city
at which nine drainage trustees were
chosen. Their duties are to supervise
the construction of canal, connected
with the waters of Lake Michigan and
those of the Illinois River, for the pur-
pose of carrying off the sewerage of
the city in that direction instead Of
running it into the lake. The canal,
it is proposed, shall have sufficient
dimensions to admit of the passage
through it of large lake vessels, and
thus furnish a commercial outlet
from this city to the Cult of Mexico.
This is of course something of a me-
mace to the railroads running south
and west from this city. The state.
ment published this morning that the
combination of these interests with
hundreds of millions of property back
OF it, has been formed for the purpose
of securing the contract for the work
in order to defeat the commercial fea-
ture of it and make it merely drain
age channel.

A young lady sings in our choir
Whose hair is the color of phoir,

Some day I'll complete my design
And ask the fair maid to be mign.
If she's not coquette
Which I'd greatly regrette,

Society Graces in Washington

A well-known society woman here
told the following story, and was
surprised that her listeners did not
commiserate her on the indignity she

women. Others had been telling of
the rudeness they had endured from
callers, and my lady thought hers
would cap the climax.

Death.
Henry Ward Beecher.

Henry Ward Beecher.
When the sun disappears below the
horizon he is not down. The heav-
ems glow for full hour after his de-
parture, and when a great and good
man sets the west is luminous long
after he is out of sight. A room in
which flowers have been is sweet long
after the flowers have been taken
away. They leave a fragrance be-
hind. And a goodly man who lives
unselfishly and disinterestedly and
seeks the good of other men cannot
die out of this world. When he goes
hence he leaves behind much of him
self. There have been many men
who left behind them that which
hundreds OF years have not worn out.
The earth has Socrates and Plato to
this day. The world is richer yet by
Moses and the old prophets than by
the wisest statesmen. We are in
debted to the past. We stand in the
greatness of ages that have gone
rather than in that of our own. But
of how many of us shall it be said
that, being dead, we yet speak.
