A HAPPY ENDING.

When Miss Mabel emerged from the
trance, or threw off the peculiar influence
which had overpowered her, the friend
asked who it was she had been drawing
The reply was she did not know, except
that she was convinced fate had ordained
her to be under the influence of the origi-
nal of the portrait. When on the follow
ing day that original visited the house
and was introduced to "Mab," that young
lady nearly tainted, and the gentleman
seemed almost as much affected. Stanford,
the owner of the face which had been
drawn during the trance, explained shortly
afterwards that he had had similar wis
ion,v and that Miss Mabel was the lady
whose comely features he had been in
spired to sketch. There could be only one
ending to such a chapter Of accidents, and
it was Mr.. and Mrs Stanford who protested
to both author and publisher that private
confidence had been betrayed.
A very interesting romance has been
woven round a decidedly prcsaic dream

ers the protection organs. 1t is diff
cult to say with a serious face thai
protection keeps up wages when the
best protected concern in the country
is in the very act of reducing wages
The plea of confession and avoidance
which is now most popular among pro-
tectionists is that Carnegie sells stee
rails nearly as cheap as English rails
can be bought, with freight added, and
yet pays double the wages paid to the
same class of labor in England. II this
were true it would prove that wages
do not depend on protection; for il
they did, Carnegie would have to sell
his rails for e much higher price than
English rails sell for TO enable him to
pay double English wages. II it were
true it would not be true long, for
there is nothing to keep English work.

OBERlY'S SUCCESSOR.
A Man with n Blemished History Selecfe
for an Important once.


for an Important once.
Mr.. John H. Oberly, Democrat, who
in several official capacities had made
an excellent record, was recently re-
moved by President Harrison from the
Office OF Commissioner of Indian AZ
fairs, although his retention was
prayed for by the Indian Rights AS
ISOLATION and by several thousand Re-
publicans and Democrats who were
familiar with the good work he had
done in the Indian Bureau. Mr.. James
t. Morgan was appointed his sue
cessor. The record of the War De-
partment show that Morgan, while
Colonel OF the Fourteenth U. S. Col
ored Infantry, was tried in 1885 by a
court-martial and found guilty on
various charges, as follows: OF having
made false charges against fellow
officer; of having, while custodian OF
recommendations for advancement for
himself and a feilow-officer, retained
the latter and forwarded only those
in his own favor, and Of having made
regiment to his pecuniary advantage.
On these charges, with specifications,
Colonel Morgan was found guilty by
the unanimous verdict of the court and
sentenced to dismissal. When this
sentence reached the department head
quarters it was set aside in the manner
thus described in the records:
In the foregoing cases OF Colonel Thomas J.
Morgan, Fourteenth United States Colored
infantry, the court having found the accused
guilty OF tho first charge, the violation OF the
fifteenth article OF war, had not authority to
change the sentence prescribed In that article
for such ofeuscs. and the failure to conform
to the requirement OF the above article in
sentencing the accused is an error fatal to the
proceedings and judgment OF the court so far
as it relates to the first charge.
The requirement of the fifteenth
article Of war was that an officer
found guilty OF violating it should be
"cashiered, and thereby utterly dis
abled to have or hold any Office or en-
ployment in the service of the United
States.
The New York Times says:
We suppose that 1t will be conceded that the
Indian Commits sioner ought to be pure and
honest man. That is true. indeed, of any pub
lie officer, but it is most important in this case
because dishonest or dishonorabe conduos
may inf ct great injury on the Indians, wht
are peculiarly helpless, and may greatly com

suffered deeply from the iaefic!ency and cor

How the President manages to find

An Excellent Plan.

which has just been organized In Chi
cago and incorporated under tie laws
of Illinois, is about ready to try its
first experiment in placing Temper
ance facts and statistics whore the
masses of the people not only may,
but must read them. The plan is to
print striking, but incontrovertible
figures and statements concerning the
liquor traffic on large cards that will
be hung in every street-car in the

new set of statistics will be pre-
sented. Here are some of the state.

TEMPERANCE ITEMS.

ANOTHER State has wheeled into line
for the good of its children. Florida
has passed Scientific Temperance In
struction bill, which is to take effect
this fall.
A PROMINENT physician states that
out of 623 moderate and immoderate
drinkers with whom he has conversed
161 acquired the desire for wine and
other alcoholic poisons by their use in
articles of diet
WHATEVER else you may or may not
do in this broiling weather. don't fret
and don't drink alcoholic beverages.
Quietude of mind and abstinence from
stirulants help greatly to make life
endurable in temperature of this sort.
N Y. Mail and Express.
PROF. BUNGE, Of Switzerland, speak,
ing of moderate drinking, says: The
voice of conscience is smothered in
drink, and whenever hint of higher
joys may be given it is swept away in
the resistless current of appetite. This
pitiful loss soon makes itself manifest
outwardly -the thought life of man
is seen in his face. One has but to
glance at the great army OF drinkers
to see how, little by little, the noble
traits of countcnance disappear, and
only brutal expression remains. The
half OF mankind is thus destroyed
through so-called moderate drinking. y
A REMARKABLE dinner was lately
given in Norwich, Eng, by we'll
known Temperance sheriff, George
White, to celebrate the wedding OF his
daughter. Elegant invitations were
issued to l, 100 of the aged poor OF the
city, and fully two-thirds of this num-
Der responded. The dinner was an
elaborate one and served in good style
by the principal citizens of the town.
The oldest guest was ninety-six years
OF age, and there were several over
ninety True to his Temperance prin-
ciples, the only drinks furnished BY
the sheriff were milk, lemonade and
coffee. Such thoughtful bounty is re-
freshing in these days OF greed and
gain.
The Railway Age says: THE rail-
ways of the United States constitute
one of the most effective temperance
organizations in existence. Practi-
cally they encourage, and most of the
companies require, abstinence from IT,
toxicating liquors oothe part of their
60, 900 employees A great and crafty
ing change in sentiment as well as in
practice on this subject has taken
place among railway officers and men
within few years. 1t is a compare
lively short time since to be a railway
man was almost equivalent to being a
drinking man, and the officer and
employee who refused to drink were
hardly considered adapted to their
profession. ALI this is happily
changed.

TOM PLATT'S PARTY.
A Party Struggle That May Disrupt the
Republican Party.

A Party Struggle That May Disrupt the
Republican Party.
Either Tom Platt is going into the
Cabinet or there is going to be trouble
for President Harrison in Now York
The fight is on and the return of Mr..
Platt from Alaska, where he has
gone to recruit his strength, will be a
signal for the fray.
Tom Platt represents the working
Republicans of the Empire State-the
men who control the organization of
the party from the primary to the
election of delegates to a National
convention. These Republicans have
been ignored by the President so far.
Acting under the advice of Mr. Blaine
undoubtedly, Mr.. Harrison has de-
clined to recognize the claims of MIR
Platt or his friends. IN the distribu-
ton OF offices in New York up to this
time the recommendations OF the
Platt men have been treated with
little less than contempt. At length
they have come to the conclusion that
war on the Administration is the only
means by which they can secure what
they are pleased to term their rights.
They will do no more pleading or
begging nor will they accept any
thing less than the very best at the
disposal of the Executive. The
favors which the Administration
is expected to bestow upon them
for the return of a cessation of hos
tilities must be headed by the ap-
pointment OF Tom Platt to a position
in the Cabinet. If this can not be
brought about the working Repub-
licans OF the State are determined
that he shall succeed Mr.. Evarts in
the Senate, and from his place on the
floor of the upper house of Congress
they claim he will open a fight on
Blaine similar to that so well begun
and so ignobly ended in Garfeld's
time.
The admission of Tom Platt to the
Cabinet by President Harrison would
be notice to james G. Blaine that
he was no longer wanted. and would
be so accepted by the Maine states
man without delay. Mr.. Platt and
MIR. Blaine could not sit at the same
table in the White House. The chasm
between them is so wide and so deep
that it can never be bridged over. 1t
remains with Mr.. Harrison to decide
whether he shall stand by Blaine or
whether he shall run the risk OF
losing the vote of New York State in
the convention OF 1892.
Notwithstanding all reports TO the
contrary. Mr. Blaine is in feeble
health and is no longer the fighter
