Old fishermen on the Hudson and Har
lem rivers predict hard winter because
of the great number of crabs being found
in those waters Just now. The old Con-
necticut farmer predicts an immense snow
fall the coming season because there is
such big crop of that bitter, white ever
lasting plant which many years ago was
known as snow weed. Six months from
now those of us who are here still will

G. ". Bruce, Druggist, Ero't, Mich:
l want to say to you that Hibbard's
Rheumatic Syrup is, in my opinion,
the greatest medicine ever put up.
You are fully aware how lame and sore
l was at the time you advised me to
try the remedy, my back and ankles
were so sore and lame and the pain so
severe, that / could scarcely move
about. Three bottles of this remedy
cured me when everything else that
tried failed. 1t is valuable medi-
cine. FRANK V. HANDY.
The above statement is true and it
affords me much pleasure to recon-
mend this medicine. G.. n. BRUCE.

aWorId,s Fair Scheme.

CHICAGO. October l7.-Secretary Dickin-
son. of the Worlds Columbian Exposition,
has prepared an elaborate plan for the ex-
ercises and ceremonies for the dedication
of the Worlds Fair buildings on October
-. 1892. The Secretary's scheme will be
presented to the Committee on Ceremonies
which meets on Saturday. As the plan
has received the endorsement of each mem
Der of the committee it will doubtless be
adopted Mr.. Dickinson proposes TO give
on the grounds and in the buildings a great
interstate and inter National military en-
campment and band tournament. He
would have the exercises begin on the
first Monday in October, and conclude a
few days after October II, making the day
the great event. He thinks that one day s
festivities would not draw complete rep
resentation from each State, and that the
celebration would not fit the day. The
plan suggested, Mr.. Dickinson believes,
will bring together all the crack military
organizations and the finest bands IN the
country, and make it the greatest military
and musical event of the age. He calcu-
lates that it would be a financial success.
He figures the daily attendance at 100000 "a
POO. 600, and the total admission at 100000
to 9, ZOO, 900, which, at 80 cents ahead, would
bring handsome sum.
Wheeling Sunday register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1882-1934, 1890-10-19

1t is estimated that the New York
Peoples Palace when completed and
furnished throughout will cost not less
than S25O,0OO and it may run up to ST.
900, 600. The building arrangements are
in the hands of committee consisting
of Cornelius Vanderbilt, w. II. Apple
ton, G. A. Croker, w. II. Butterworth,
and Rev. DIR. Greer, eX-oflicio.
The exterior of the building will be as
inviting as light, pressed brick and white
and terra-cotta trimmings can make
it. But this is not all by any means.
Elevators are to be provided for the use
of any one who desires to avail himself
or herself of this way of going from one
part of the building TO another. Some
people will no doubt shake their heads
at this. but those having the matter in
charge do not believe that feeble old
men or women should be asked to climb
five pairs of stairs, even if they are
poor, so the elevators will run at all
hours while the building is open, which
will be from about nine o'clock in the
morning until ten o'clock at night.
These facts are mentioned merely TO

HINTS ON READING.
ItIsan Art to Clean Rapidly and Wisely
the Contents of IA Book.

the Contents of IA Book.
All books need Lot be read carefully;
indeed, it is often a waste OF time TO
linger long over volume whose entire
thought is not essential to ones purpose.
II is an art acquired only by practice to
CLEAN wisely and rapidly from some
what barren yet occasionally fruitful
book. Many, probably most, volumes
demand time and careful thought. The
second reading of good book is often
of great value. The thoughts retained
from the first reading are impressed
more fully OH the mind, and become
assimilated with ones mental structure,
while others of value that were
unnoticed before are gathered In,
saws writer in Hdrper'S BGzdr.
If there is no time for second read
ing il is an excellent idea to read with
a blue pencil in hand, and to mark those
passages on which one would like to be-
stow further thought. In the eyes OF
some people, marking a book Is an I'M
pardonable sin, but the practice has
MANY advantages. The objection that
n book whose margins are interlined
looks less clean and fresh than if free
from markings has no weight. OF what
value is a shelf full of books that have
been rigidly kept free from those writ
ten comments, and look as clean as if
Just from the publisher, except to COM
mand higher price, when some years
hence. our cherished possessions are
taken to dealer in secondhand litera-
ture?
A iudiciously marked book is source
of delight to the marker and his friends,
and becomes tenfod more a part OF the
readers thought than any other.
Read with friend if possible; not
necessarily aloud or together, but II the
thoughts of two friends are directed to
the same course Of reading during the
day, its subjects are pretty sure to be
discussed and its substance more thor
oughly digested and asSimilated. Years
after, an allusiOn to the book or a
quoted passage recalls the thought and
the friend both proftably and pleasant

greatly facilitates comprehension OF a
written page.

of the Hennessey assassins, ostensibly for
the purpose of identifying him. When the
prisoner appeared, Duffy pulled out PTS
tol and shot him in the neck. Scatfide was
sent to the Charity Hospital in dying con-
dition. Duffy was arrested and taken to

station Duffy said that if the ''dago" died
he was willing to hang. He said to the Off

More than fifty arrests have been made of

After Life.
george y. Prentice

1t cannot be that earth is only mans
abiding place.
1t cannot be that our life is bubble
cast upon the ocean of eternity, to float
a moment upon it's surface and then go
into nothingneSS and darkness forever.
Else why is it that the high and glori-
Gus aspirations leap like angels from
the temples of our hearts and forever
wander abroad. unSatiSiied? Why is it
that the rainbow and the cloud come
over with a beauty that is not of earth,
and then pass off and leave Us muse on
their faded lovelineSS? Why is it
that the stars which hold their festival
around the midnight throne are set
above the grasp of her limited faculties,
forever hooking us with their unap-
proachable glory? And, finally, why is
il that bright forms of human beauty
are presented to the view and then from
us. leaving the thousand streams of the
affections TO flow back in Alpine torrents
upon our hearts?
We are born for higher destiny than
earth.
There is a realm where the stars will
be spread out before us like the islands
that Slumber on the ocean; and where
the beautiful beings that here pass be-
fore us like visions will stay in our pres
ence forever
