wonder what has become of herT" Dat Of
the darkness there stepped the tall, lank fig
ure of girl Advancing into the center Of
the group, she said laconically; "I'm Bess."
Glad recognition met her from each member
of the party, and | noticed that when her
hand was clasped in that Of the doctor dull
red flush passed over her face. She was UNI
changed, save that the ugliness of the type
was intensified After a few words she fell
back from the light
Guided by an enthusiastic young English
man who had travelled around the world, we
went to look at the Moonlight FALL" which
he declared to be the most beautiful sight
"eye ever beheld-" Leaning over to feast
my eyes upon the incompatible beauty Of
the scene, was startled by hearing quick,
hurried breathing near me. Looking around
saw Bess standing on the verge of the cliff,
not looking at the waterfall, but gazing with
a fixed intensity and expression at Bebe, slim
and fairssin the radiant moonlight.
How it happened no one ever knew, but
with the suddenness of an electric shock we
realized that Bebe was over the cliff, her
heavy travelling dress caught in the branches
of sturdy manzanita bush that had forceda
footing for itself within creyice of the
rocky wall Her husband had but just left
her side, but ere he could reach the spot, lise
g flash Bess had lowered herself to narrow
ledge of rock, grasping with one hand
rough, sharp spur jutting out from the wall,
with the other she raised Bebe's slight, lis
some form TO the arms outstretched to re-
ceive it.
Looking into the doctors face with eyes
TRANSPORTED with love she painted: ~ saved
her for YOU" then relaxing her hold she fell
with a crash into the dark abyss
Later when the poor, bruised body was
brought and laid in the little cabin, looking
through a mist of tears we saw the face glori-
fed and beautiful, and around the head there
seemed to shine the aureoe of a saint. Thus
she passed forever out of the shadows into
the light of an eternal day.-New Orleans

Poor. unfortunate Batrachian! In what
sad plight he must have been. And yet his
misfortune was one that often befalls singers.
Many q once tuneful voice among those who
belong to the "genus homo " is utterly spoiled
by" cold in the head, - or on the lungs, or both
combined. For the above mentioned " croak-
err" we are not aware that any remedy was
ever devised; but we rejoice to know that all
human singers may keep their heads clear and
threats in tune by the timely use of DIR. Sage's
Catarrh Remedy and DR.. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery, both of which are sold by
druggists
Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy cures the worst
cases of Catarrh in the Head, no matter of
how long standing, while for all laryngeal,
bronchial, throat and lung affections, DR..
Pierces Golden Medical Discovery is posi-
lively unequaled. 1t cures the worst linger-
ing coughs and builds up the flesh and
strength of those who have been reduced
by wasting diseases. 1t is guaranteed to
benefit or cure in all diseases for which it is
recommended, if taken in time and given a
fair trial, or money paid for it refunded.

EDITOR CHIEF: The Republic pub
fishes a market report which it tells
Us is"corrected every Fridaymorning."
In this report it quotes live hogs at
360@3.75. Now the writer and many
from this neighborhood called At
R'chgrdson's Office on Friday and were
informed that he would pay $1.6O for
the best hogs This report has run
this way for months. Is it fair to
publish a report from Is to 25cts
higher than il really paid to mislead
the seller or is it worked in t~heIinterest
Of Mr.. Richardson one of the owners
Of the Republican? The facts are that
the buyers at Lebanon paid farmers
from this place t~hirty-6ve cents more
per hundred than Mr.. Richardson
offered the same day and that day was
Friday the date of the revision of the
Republicans report. Red Cloud is
a good town to trade in but We all
sell our hogs at Lebanon. SAN.

c. Gather of this county called in
and Investigated the contracts Of the
Pauly Jail Company with Adams
county for the purpose of comparing
the same with the dealings of the
same company with Webster county.
He found that they are to put in for
that county seven steel cells and two
female cells or its equivalent for the
sum Of $5,457.lS; that there is to be
II guard windows and the plate is to
be { inches thick, all bars being q

heaviest work. For putting in two
cells and two female cells IN this
county they receive $4,000, both labor
and material being less than one-half
what they do in Adams for s5,457.1S.
They also offered to do work of q
lighter grade, possibly the same as
they do in this coudty for $500 OF

The railway project from this city
to Salem aud Burr Oak is a good one
and should be worked for all that is
in it. The survey is now being made
and We hope it vii! result 10 another
railway for us. A man who says we
do not need another railway is either
against the town, or partially insane
We should judge. The CHIEF is for
railroads. True we have already one
of the best lines in the country, but
if another line will make the town
grow. which it would..undoubtcdly,
why then, new railroads should be
encouraged. A man who fights the

ALEXANDRIA GAZETTE.

The GAZETTE, chronologically,
is in the NINETIETH year of it's ex-
istence, and is not only the Oldest
paper IN the State, but, with few
exceptions, in the country.
Notwithstanding the fulness Of
its years, it has kept, and will con.
tinue to keep, abreast Of the timeq
in all that pertains to a NEWS paper,
furnishing its readers daily with
perfect mirror Of passing events,
domestic and foreign.
Its facilities for obtaining news
as they increase are taken advan.
tage of and used for the benefit of
its readers, who are thus kept
thoroughly posted as to all that is
Of interest politically, socially, f.
nanclally or commercially.
Special attention is given to mat.
ters concerning the State and it's
welfare, while its local columns
contain all that is Of the slightest
interest to Alexandrians.
Its regular correspondence from
Washington and Richmond are fea.
lures Of peculiar interest, as attest
ed by the eagerness with which
they are read and copied by other
papers, while its editorial depart.
ment, conducted with reference to
the best interests Of the city, State
and country, will continue to ad.
vocate what is believed to be right,
just, honest and patriotic.
With view to the interest of
merchants. farmers and all inter-
ested, its commercial columns are
carefully edited and its market re-
ports are acknowledged by all to
be faithful and accurate.
Through all this section of the
State, and in all parts of the coun-
try where Virginians have located,
there will the GAZETTE generally
be found, and thus as an advertis.
ing medium it has few equals out
side the large cities.
In the household, counting room
and workshop it is an ever-welcome
visitor acceptable alike to old and
young, the grave and the gay.
