Gently interviewed the leading divines

of heaven. There is wisdom in aggre-

and the c0ilocati0n gives 4 surprising

prevalent conviction that heaven is a

VIEWING THE ItEMAINs,
Thousands Look at the Remains
Ofthe Confederate Chieftain.

NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 1.-THE remains
of Jefferson Davis were viewed by
thousands of people to-day. The
Army Of Southern Virginias tomb in
Metalrie cemetery has been chosen
as the temporary resting place.
The arrangements for the funeral
are being rapidly perfected and
nothing will be lacking to
make the demonstration one of the most
eyentful of its kind in the history of the
South. Orion Frazee, of Atlanta, has
made a mask of bIr. Davis face
for statue to be erected here.
The sword worn by Mr.. Davis in
the Blackhawk war will be buried

WHEN THE TRAIN COMES IN,
There are eager faces near,

There are eager faces near
And half-subdued cheer.
As around the curve the cars unsteady Spins
While impatient feet await
For the opening of the gait
At the station when the train comes in.
There is handshakiug and kissing
And inquiries for the missing
And a searching here and there for friends
or kin;
There are sad and fearful signs,
And waving of good-byS,
At the station when the train comes IL.
Then from out the baggage car,
oh, so careful. lest to jar,
Comes long and narrow box amid the din,
As the mourners gather round,
There's a sobbing, wailing sound
At the station when the tram comes IN.
Then the ringing of the bell,
And the whistle clearly tell,
They are ready new journey to begin,
For il brooks not to be late.
There are other hearts that wait
At the station when the train comes in.

A LEGAL LOVE,

He was whale" in the legal ranks,
Well versed IN the rules of law;
lie was up to all its quirks and pranks,
And as deep as well termed draw.
When the conrt sat down on point he made,
And resisted all correction,
He quietly, but firmly said:
Just please note an exception"
Now this man of law loved n tenderla lass,
With an ardor strong and warm;
But one cruel night it came to pass,
That his little suit went wrong.
When she said him NO" did he feel bereft,
And droop in deep detection?
Ali. no, he whispered as he left:
Just please note an exception"

4 Terrible Revenge, Yet One That

Ladies' Home Journal
A few years ago strange mistake
was made in New York society. Two
ladies of the same name gave an enter

the wrong house. The hostess
who gained that day the adj
miring comments of all New York
was the one who received per
feet strangers as if they were her
b st friends. and made them her friends
by that gracious reception. She knew
how awkwardly they would feel when
they found out their mistake: she
did all she conld to prevent their feeling
awkwardly while with her.
The other lady, less Well-bred, said to
a person who had come into her house.

MAJ. ". FL. POWELL, who has taken
the girth and measure of the aborigines
as closely as perhaps any competent
dissector of the native article, has very
little confidence in the policy that would
make farmers out of the present race
of Indians. He says it would be easier
to make a purse out of s0w's ear
than to make a Woodworking granger
out of an Indian. He would put them
into the army. Still, it isn't so certain
that sow's ear might No; make pretty
fair sort of a purse.

UnintentiOnaI There has been some
suggestion of the re-
HypnOtism. formatory possibilities

UnintentiOnaI There has been some
suggestion of the re-
HypnOtism. formatory possibilities
of the hypnotic fac
ulty. A case is reported recently in
England that seems authentic and is
suggestive. Rev. ARTHUR TOOTH, a
clergyman of the established church,
in the presence of large company of
physicians and ministers, gave an eXhi-
bitiOn of his control of boys twelve to
fifteen years of age in an orphan asy-
lum. He had but to fix his eye on one
of them when he became as subject to
his will as he could be himself. This,
however, was no more than had often
been done by meSmeriSts. The remark
able feature was that the boys, after
coming out of the hypnotic state. would
follow precisely the directions that had
been given them i'm that condition, with
no apparent limitation as to time. The
operator stated that he had tested the
scheme on men addicted to drink
and been able to induce per-
manent diStaste for all kinds of
strong drink. According to his eX-
perience the habitually Incorporate are
peculiarly sensitive to the hypnotic ill.,
fiuence. Their wills are easily con-
trolled by the stronger mental force of
the operator. This man had told them
while in the state that if they drank
liquor afterwards it would nauseate the
stomach and induce vomiting. That
result always followed, and they aban-
doned the use of whisky. Drunkards
were rescued. If MIR. TOOTH assumes
correctly that this influence can be ac-
quired and exerted by great number
of people, new mode of operations is
suggested for philanthropistS and re-
formers. 1t may, in fact, perhaps settle
the whole question of the use of liquors.
The drunkards can be cured, and the
educators of the young could put them
in the hypnotic state and infect them
with perpetual repugnance to the taste
of liquor. Possibly other virtues and
arts could be inculcated in this way.

TOPICAL TALK.

Stanley's STANLE explora-
tions in Africa are
Latest Explo- doubtless valuable coll
tributions to the
rations. worlds history; and
yet it is question
whether the immediate, or even remote,
results are sufficiently beneficial to
compensate for the fearful sacrifices of
life and health that have been made.
His geographical discoveries are OF
interest. His last exploration estab-
lished the size and boundaries Of the
great Congo forest, which is now known
to cover an area as large as France and
the lberian republic. The once tabled

upon the banks of the Albert Edward
Nyanza, and the extent of the great
lake is now known for the first time.
Naturalists who accompanied the eXpe-
dition have found new species of birds,
animals and plants. Surgeons discovered
new climatic conditions, as well as new
climatic dangers. Altogether, STAN
LEY's report of his last exploration will
be q book of absorbing interest; and
yet of what special profit will 1t be to
this generation or the one that is to
follow? Nobody in the rest of the hab-
liable world wants to move to Africa as
long as there is room elsewhere for ex-
istence. A great many lives have been
sacrificed III these explorations, and
those who lived to come back have re-
turned in feeble health and with broken
constitutions. The physicians who were
with Stanley unite in their testimony
that the atmosphere of Central Africa
is deadly to white-Skinned people; SO
there is no probability that the country
will ever be inhabited by others than the
descendants of the barbarians who now
dwell there.

"AMoNa HOME AUTHORS"

The critical and semi biographical articles which
have been a specially interesting feature of THE
ARKANsAw TRAVELLER, for several months, are tenn
porarily discontinued. Mr.. Henry Clay Lukens,
the adept journalistic lapidary who has supplied
our literary cabinet with these sparkling gems,
writes to us, from Jersey City, that summer days
bring him needed rest. He may, early next autumn,
begin second series of equally attractive personal
"reminiscences.
Mr.. Lukens is one of the veteran journalists of
America his work finds glad welcome at the
desks of all experienced editors. He is man of
extended VISIONS a man whose judgment is of
value, and is, readers know, vivid thought
painter. He is not only journalist he is litter
ateur of large achievements The books that he has
written have had q large sale, and his name has
been carried into many household far removed
from the struggling crowd.
