Voices of the Night.

Oh silent night
So pure and bright,
No man on earth distressing.
The pale moon sheds
Down on our heads
A rich and silent blessing.
Yon brilliant star
That looks afar
Down on this world of ours,
Seems like an eye
Beyond the sky
To guard and tell the hours.
Earth sleeping dreams
And in thy beams,
Oh, Moon, which thou hast given,
She can but smile
And dream awhile
Ofyon sweet far off Heaven,
1t fills with bliss
A heart like this,
As dew drops fill BLOSSOM;
And white petals fold
Around the gold,
Upon lilly's bosom.
Oh Angels bright,
On wings of light,
In that fair world above us,
Are you more fair
Beyond the air.
Than those on earth who love US?
For pure and sweet
Each face we meet,
Each heart o'eraows with kindness;
WouId angels bend
To help friend,
Or overlook our blindness?
When thoughts Of thee,
Eternity,
Thrill this small soul with gladness,
The world 'twould grasp
Its meaning clasp,
But failing, falls in sadness.
Oh. God Of might,
Who made this light
And happy heart to love Thee,
Expand and fill
With love until
lis fitted for the World above me.
An echo flies
Through moonlit skies
"Peace-Peace on Earth" It's singing.
sink in deep
And happy sleep
While through my soul It's ringing.

Winter Tourist Rntes.

During the past spring and summer our
Southern brethren have thronged into
Colorado. and after climbing our peaks,
exploring our canyons and snowballing IN
midsummer to their hearts content, re-
turned delighted with our scenic attrac-
tons, and charmed by the spirit of hearty
hospitality with which they were vel
coined. Now it should be our duty, and
a pleasant one, to return these visits.
The Fort Worth railroad has given us the
opportunity. Their advertising depart
ment has Just issued a pamphlet entitled
Winter Tourist Routes and Rates from
the Summit to the Sea-" giving reduced
excursion rates for this winter season and
a number of different routes through the
South.
Coloradoans cannot Justly plead the
necessity of escaping from a severe winter,
but many of them would be pleased with
the change to a semi-tropical climate
where the flowers perpetually bloom, and
a visit to places Of such historic interest
as Houston, Austin, Galveston, San An.
tonic or New Orleans. Or, if they should
wish stranger or more tropical chimes,
these routes include a trip to such interest
ing old places as Monterey, Saltillo and
the City of Mexico. Full particulars may
be obtained by addressing Geo. Ady, gem
eral passenger and ticket agent of the
Denver, Texas 4 Forth Worth railroad,
or the Union Pacific ticket agent at
CHEYENNE.

One of the pleasantest old young men
of Washington is Harvey NJ. Watterson,
the father of Henry Watterson. Imagine
to yourself n tall and slightly built man,
with n large head of gray hair, a white
beard falling over his chest, and a pair
of the brightest and kindest blue eyes you
will ind anywhere. Imagine this man
to be 40 years old, but at the same time
to move about with as firm q step as
though he was but 80. Listen to his voice,
and it ONE forth in strong chest tones.
Talk to him and he will tell you that he
feels younger as the years grow older, and
that he hopes to last for many years yet.
Said Mr.. Watterson once in response
to n question:
Tho first sign of n mans failing facul-
ties is seen in his voice. l can go IN the
street and speak in such tones as can be
heard 300 yards away. l spend my
winters in Washington and my summers
at Louisville, and while there / look over
the exchanges in the newspaper office
and scan about fifty papers q day. am
glad that l am alive, and l feel that my
good health at this age is due to temper
ancc and in not allowing myself to be
worried about anything. l am very
careful of my eating, and I have not had
three unhappy hours from worry in my
whole life. When 1 have studied my

cause of my carelessness, but thanked the

Funeral of the Prince.

VIENNA, Feb. 5.-The city to-day was
given entirely over to mourning. Enor-
nous crowds commenced to assemble out
side the court chapel at an early hour in
the morning. Perfect order prevailed,
however, in contrast with the disorder of
yesterday. The Emperor and empress
and crown princess attended requiem mass
in the oratory of the palace, at which the
"Miserere'' was sung by the court choir.
The service was ended at noon. The
church bells then commenced to toll.
The coffin lid was fastened at . o'clock
and the key was confidcd to Prince Ho.
heulohe, as court marshal. Soon after
wards the gateslof the chapel were closed
and the members of the imperial family
gathered around the catalogue, to take q
last farewell of the remains.
Just before 4 o'clock members of the
imperial house stopped IN front of the
side entrance of the Capuchin church
where they were received by Prince
Hohenlohe. Prince Hunyadi. chief mas
ter OF ceremonies and tie father guardian,
accompanied by friends of the com
munity bearing lighted tapers. The in
terror OF the church was entirely draped
in black. Near the catafalque was a
tabouret for Archbishop Ganglbaeter, who
celebrated pontifical mass. To the right
of the main aisle on the epistle side and
opposite the imperial dais, were priedieux
for the use of Monsignor Galimberti,
papal nuncIo, and the other bishops,
on the stroke of 4 the coffin was lifted from
the bier, blessed and carried to the fune-
raj car.
The cortege then started from Hoff-
burg. Upon reaching Augustine church,
the priests assembled there, placed them
selves at the head OF the procession and
were followed by court and state officials
and the municipal authorities. When
the car bearing the body arrived at the
c~loister gates, Emperor Francis Joseph
and the king and queen of the Belgians,
followed by other mourners, entered the
body of the church. The ministers ofthe
empire, headed by Count Kalnoky, Count
Won Taaie and Herr Won Tissia and ac-
companied by the privy councillors, took
up n position to the right of the catal-
faque next to them. Nearer the man
entrance came in order the various depu-
t%atinns.
When the services were over and just
as the chamberlains were prepared to
convey the coffin to the vault, the emper-
or, stepping to the bier, knelt in PRAYER.
On arising he was Joined by Archduke
Charles, Prince Francis of Este. Prince
Leopold of Bavaria and Prince Phillip o.
Coburg, and followed the coffin to the
vault, where after a final blessing, Prince
Hohenlohe delivered the remains to the
charge of the father guardian. The en-
press, crown princess, Princess Gisela and
Archduchess Marie Valerie did not at.
tend the funeral, passing the time in
prayer within HOffburg.

The Shooting.

NEW YORK, Feb. 5.-The following
seems to be an authentic account OF the
killing of the striker by a policeman this
afternoon: The man came up behind
the officer and smashed his helmet over
his eyes. Another had struck q man in
the mouth with a rock, knocking his
teeth down his throat. Then the officer
drew a revolver, and as the mob rushed
upon him he fired two shots in the air.
The strikers did not run, but rushed
madly upon him. Schneider then fired
three shots point blank at the crowd. All
the strikers ran but MCGOWAN, who was
left in the throes of death. The fatal
bullet entered the back of McGowan's
head, penetrated the left eye and caused
almost instant death. Two other men
were hit, n in the neck and the other
In the leg, but they were carried off by
friends. Assistance came to the officer, the
crowd was dispersed, and an hour later
only a pool of blood remained in the
street to tell the story.
MCGOWAN, the striker who was killed,
was a single man 25 years of age. He
had been America from Ireland five years.
and was a striking stable man of the Belt
line road.
Officer Schneider reported to police
headquarters and was afterwards placed
under arrest at Essex police court. At
police headquarters Schneider stated that
a mob of 900 persons attacked the car
and he shot at the foremost of the rioters,
and the conductor and driver emptied
their revolvers. Mr.. Brennan, a brother
to one of the commissioners of charities
and correction, who was an eye witness,
said the conductor of the car shot the
striker and that Schneider did not fire
the fatal shot. Justice Patterson there
upon discharged the officer and issued a
warrant for the arrest of the conductor,
who with the driver was arrested. the lat
ter as a witness.

The Chamber of Torture

is the apartment to which the unhappy
sufferer from iniammatory rheumatism is
confined. If, ere the crisis is reached.
that fine preventive, II ostetter's Stomach
Bitters, is used by persons of a rheumatic
tendency, much unnecessary suffering is
avoided; Nervines, anodynes and soda
tives, while having none but a specific
effect, are yet very desirable at times.
Yet can they produce no lasting effect
upon rheumatism, because they have no
power to eliminate from the blood the
rheumatic virus. Hostetter's Stomach
Bltters does this, and checks at the outset
a disease which, if allowed to gain head.
way, it is next to impossible to dislodge
or to do more than relieve. Rheumatism

a fatal tendency from its proneness to
attack the heart. A resort to the Bitters
should, therefore, be prompt. Dyspepsia,
kidney complaint, malaria and nervous.
