"LoCkSLEY HALL"
How It AIlrrored the Hopes and Aspir..
eionO OF It's Time.

How 1e Mlrrorcd the Hopes and Aspirs.
tionS Of Its Time.
The instantaneous and universal
popularity which tho first .'Lockslev
Hall gained was due in part to causes
independent OF its form. 1t mirrored
. did NJ other work the hopes and
aspirations of It's time. The period in
which 1t was produced was a period of
exa,tation which reflected in faint out
lines the mood of men in the earlier
months OF the French revolution. 1t
1s hard Tor us now to conceive the
state OF mind that prevailed at the
opening Of the halr-century that has
just closed. The optimistic Wow OF
the future was everywhere predomi-
uAnt The race was at last emerging
from the social and political thraldom
which had cramped its efforts and
crushed its spirit Glass distinctions
were on the point of overthrow. ancient
abuses Of all sorts wee about to be-
uprooted. On another side there was
a prospect full as glorious. Man was
speedily to assert his full mastery
over the blind but mighty elemental
forces OF which he had hitherto been
the plaything or the victim. His
career of conquest over nature had al
ready opened triumphantly. Steam
applied to l0comotion was annih:iat-
Ing space. Electricity, though not yet
made fully captive, was revealing the
possibility Of the anniE :!ation of time.
An abstract personificaron ca..ed
science, with miracles already per-
formed, and with the promise OF
greater miracles to be performed, was
the new deity to which We wore to
look for tho regeneration of the race.
There was no limit to It's beneficence,
no limit to its power, no limit, there
fore, to what 1t could and would ac-
comp!ish. To all the future looked
bright, for there was intoxication In the
air.
1t was at such a time as this that
the poet came forward in the original
''Locksiey Hail. to put into majestic
words the majestic but vague ideas
which had fred the imaginations of
men. To their shadowy conceptions
he gave distinctness and grandeur.
He pictured for them tho full glory OF
the coming day which had already
begun To dawn.-Proi Lounsbury, In

A Strange Parisiau Occupation.

Strange characters, indeed, are pro- duced in the streets of Paris. The pick CTS up of cigar stumps have often been described. I myself have attempted to draw their portraits; but here is the story of their work, as told me in a mournful voice by one of themselves:
 "At o'clock in the morning, after the closing of the night houses, we con- mence our rounds, as we must be at work before the scavenger commences his du- ties. At noon we take second round, and then again at o'clock, this time visiting the restaurants and places of amusement. A man whose eyssight is not too far gone can hope to pick up from 100 to 150 grammes weight each journey, and that means about 50 cents. On wet days 12 to 15 cents are all that can be gained"
 When the season Is fine this Snapper up of unconsidered triAes," who has during the winter amassed quite store of cigar-ends, takes his way to the sub- urbs and sells his merchandise to the carriers. The danger of these expedi. tlons, however, is the risk of being cap- tured by the excise or local tax officers, as, If they are caught, they stand the chance of six months imprisonment, al- though the tobacco has already paid duty In Paris the officials shut their eyes, and it IS under the very noses ot the guardians of the peace that they carry on this business.
 One could readily believe that the man whom we see picking up cigar-end does 50 to satisfy his own cravings for the weed. Quite the contrary; he cuts them up and sells the mixed medley for smok ing tobacco. It is reckoned that in Paris there are consumed daily 800, ,OOO cigars there are therefore left upon or under the tables at cafes nearly half million stumps; well, these butts are gathered in and sold, and in a pipe they do not smoke much worse than does the fresh tobacco turned out from the state manu factories.

Oil for Squeaky Shears.

Standing in prominent hardware store the other day, the Stroller watched a lady purchase pair of shears. She decided upon the size and style desired, and tried four or five pairs, rejecting them all because, she said, they ''squeaked." But she was finally suited with 0 pair that didn't "squeak" and went her way. As the accepted pair happened to be one of those first re- fused, the salesman was asked how the metamorphosis was affected. "That, " said he, ''is one of the very simplest se- crets of the man who sells shears. Ob- serve this." He picked up pair of scissors which ''squeaked' woefully when worked. Then he ran his thumb and forefnger thoughtfully down the side of his nose and rubbed them over the scissors, which came together as gently and noiselessly as though sat urated with oil.
 ''That's all there is of it," he said. "You see, there is always little oil col lected in the corners on the outside of your nostrils. Scrub your nose as hard as you will, the oil will be back there in five minutes. So when a customer comes in, tries pair of shears and com plains that they squeak and come to- gether hard, we can oil them up and make them run smooth without exciting suspicion. What was the oil put on the nose for? To help the hardware man out, I suppose. But then what have told you is good thing for all nervous people, who don't like squeaky shears to know.''- Chicago Journal.

Regarding Sugar,

In the House of Commons Sir Michael Hicks Beach, President of the Board of Trade, replying to questions by Sir William Vernon Harcourt, said that the United States gov ernment would be absolutely dcbarred by their own interpretation of the most favored nation" clause from pleading that clause as a bar to the operation of the sugar bounties convention against themselves.

 "Whilc lived in St. Louis prominently identified myself with the Irish cause then disturbing the public. soon found that the great Irish movement was to be centred cit her in Chicago or New York, and nfter con- sulting my intimate friends, among whom was Dr.. O'Rcilly, made up my mind to go to Chicago. l did so. armed with letters of introduction, and soon found myself promi. nent in Irish as well as other socict cs."
 He went on 10 say that he soon discovered that the large quantities of money being re. ccivcd by certain persons for tho Irish cause were not handled properly, and that not more than thrce-fourths of it ever reached Ireland.

The Cherokee Strin.

An Indian Territory special says: The Cherokecs arc somewhat exercised over the attitude of Chief Joel B. Mays with regard to the sale of the Cherokee strip to the United States. Somo time ago President Harrison appointed three Commissioners to learn tho views of the Cherokccs and conclude the pur chase Tho initial step in this proceeding is the calling together of the Cherokee Legisla- turc for approval of tho sale. Chief Mays, however. refuses so far to convene the Lcgs lnturc for such purpose. A majority of the Indians are opposed to the sale and sustain Mays. A powerful minority is urging him to convene the Assembly and settle the prices to be paid for the land It. is understood the Commissioners will offer Sl.75 per acre, but the Chcrokecs are not likely to accept that figure, holding that four or five dollars per acre would be no more than the land is worth While the diversity of opinion as to tho sale at any price is very great, it. is understood that if the 6,OOO, ,OOO acres embraced i'll tho strip could be disposed of for SPA ,OOO, ,OO0 to the Government il sale might be effected. Unless Chief Mays can be prevailed upon to convene the Legislature it would seem as if the object of the Commissioners would bc~de- fcatcd, as no purchase can be made without the sanction of tlat body

AN OPEN QUESTION.

Is Harrison Descendant of P0cah0ntase
 It Is popularly believed that President Harrison Is descended from Pocahontas and from the Parliamentary soldier and regicdde General Thomas Harrison, who was executed in 1860.
 Pocahontas, daughter of Powhatan, mani tested 3 friendliness for the early white set tiers of Virginia when she was but girl. The story of how she saved the life of Cap tatn John Smith, who had been captured and condemned to death by her father-how she, op several occasions, made known to the settlers their danger when about to be attacked -is well known to all acquainted with the early history of America. Her subsequent marriage with John Rolfe, an Englishman- Ter senioval to England where son was born, from whom numerous wealthy fami- lies of Virginia claim descent-is the basis of the opinion that President Harrison is one of her descendants
 Whether this be true or not it Is, however, wsalknown that President Harrison is Q alike in peace and war. The name Of liar rison is already indelibly written upon the lages of American history, for General William Henry Harrison-the ninth Presi- deqt of the United States --was the grand father of General Ben. Harrison.
 The election of another member of the Harrison family Is but another proof of the prevailing disposition of the public to return to healthy administration of public affairs so choracter1stlc Of the earlier years of govern msnt. A similar desire has been manifested for revival of early manners and customs i'll many various ways, of which mention in particular can be made of the prevailing de- mand for those old time preparations which were so successfully employed in the preven- tion and cure of the ills and ailnfents which frequented the early log-cabin homes.
 After much inquiry and research noted manufacturer has procured the original methods used in their preparation and again under the name of Warmers Log Cabin Remedies, the public is possessed of those wsal-known preparations for the cure of coughs, colds consumption in its early stages blood disorders catArrh, dyspepsia, debility and other common disorders
 Notwithstanding the large amount of time, attention and expense which the manrl- facture of Warmers Safe Cure demands its well-known reputation as the only remedy Tor the prevention and cure of kidney diseases being world-wide-th manufacture is resolved to push the merit of Warmers Log Cabin Sarsaparilla to the front because of its splendid blood purifying properties and great value as a household remedy and spring g-time system renovator.
 Pocahontas during her lifelong friend ship for the white settlers of Virginia, besides her many acts of kindness, is said to have contributed much valuable information to the log cabin home concerning the successful methods employed by the Indians in the treatment of disease and it matters little whether the alleged relationship between herself and the President be true or not, for the name of Pocahontas is already i'm mortal.

Corrects His Evidence.

Mir. Parnell corrected the evidence he gave before the Commission in relation to the statement made by him in the House of Com mons concerning the non-existence of secret societies in Ireland He said that upon refer ring to tho Hansard reports of the proceed ings of the House of Commons he found tha his remarks which had been quoted by Attor ney General Webster referred particularly tc Ribbonism and not to secret conspiraciot generally. His remarks therefore were q fair ly accurate statement of the facts, as Ribbon ism, at that time, practically, did not exist in Ireland. MT Parnell snid he considered that person who joined the League and co n tinued to be member of the Clan ma Gae acted to the injury of the Leagues policy Any member of the League who would nd vo
 cate the use of dynamite would be n traitor
