CURRENT TIMELY TOPICS.

A PHILADELPHIA woman allowed her hus-
band to hang himself day or two ago, but cut
him down before death had claimed him, and then
had him committed to the House of Correction.
There is a business woman for you.
BIRMINGHAM. ALA, has a 14-year-
burglar and murderer. Northerners will be
gratifed to learn that hanging invariably follows
killing in Birmingham.
A CHICAGO heiress is leading all rival bellies
and has got all London at her feet. Two peers are
already suing for her hand. The first thing they
know they will find themselves snugly ensconsed
in the fair damsel's sh oes, while she is looking
about for new hearts to conquer.
Mr. ENLoE, of Tennessee, dislikas very
much to be stopped by the doorkeeper from going
out, presumably to see a friend, but as the
Sneaker sides with the doorkeeper it will be in
order to ask the Congress sman what he is going to
do about 1t.
FROM present indications Ohio has dropped
from third to fourth place in the Union. The
Buckeye State appears to have lost its grip since
Nr. Foraker has been relegated to private life.
SPEAKER REED evidently thinks that the
majority OF the present Congressman will not be
returned and wants to get all the good out of
them he can at one sitting.
The American district messenger system Is
to be introduced in England, Everybody is
aware that London is a slow going place. and the
wonder is that the system has not been In force
years ago.
A KANSAS CITY undertaken thinks he has
found lost art and that he can do better work in
embalming than-even the Egyptians did in their
palmiest days. He does not require the profuse
use of oils and spices and bolts of linen goods to
protect the subject from the ravages of time. A
corpse that he experimental with in October 1888
looks so life-like that friends imagine it still
breathes The undertaken sees millions in it.
THE fastest things about Philadelphia are
Cramps ships.
A MAN at Circleville. O., says the Detroit
Free Press, was struck by lightning, pronounced
dead. but recovered Just before the undertaken
reached the house. This functionary is now en-
gaaed in writing a communication to the papers
insisting that the plan Of killing by electricity is
failure.

THE execution of Kemmler by electricity
interested Europe as much as it did America.
Such leaders of thought as Mr.. Gladstone and
Cardinal Manning appear to express the gen.

new form of capital punishment 1t is inter-

agrees with THE DISPATCH, ''tbat so serious
matter as the taking of human life under such
circumstances should be in the hands Of ex-

LOVES SECRET.
BY THE LATE JOHN BOYLE o'RErLLY.

BYTHE LATE JOHN BOYLE o'REILLY.
Love found them sitting in a woodland place,
His amorous hand amid her golden tresses;
And love looked smiling on her glowing face
And moistened eyes upturned to his caresses.
so SWEET she murmured, '1ife is utter bliss, "
''Dear heart,'' he said, ''our golden cup runs
Over!'
'tDrink. love. ~ she cried. ''and thank the gods
for this!''
He drained the precious lips OF cup and lover.
Love blessed the kiss, butter he wandered thence,
The mated blossoms heard this benediction:
'Love lies within the brlmming bowl of sense;
Who keeps this full has joy-who drains, affilc-
tion.
They heard the rustic as he smiling ned;
She reached her hand to pull the roses blowing.
He stretched to take the purple grapes o'erhead;
Love whispered back. may. keep their beau
ties growing.''
They paused, and understood; one flower alone
They took and kept. and love flew smiling over.
Their roses bloomed, their cup went brimming on
She looked for love within, and found her lover.

Living Beyond Their Means,

a 8 for members of the slower House." no less
than lUS of them are now living at expen-
sive hotels, and as many more in fine residences
for which they pay high rents, the member
owning his own house being a rare exception,
though this is quite common among the Sena-
tors From my knowledge of the expense of
their election and their habits of life think it
is a fair estimate that not more than so mem
bers of Congress live within, and by far the
greater number live much beyond their salar-
les. The reason lies in the simple fact of the
meagerness of the salary. A poor man cannot
afford to run for Congress- Those who live
within their salaries are usually from the back
districts where man is still selected for office
because he is the best man. and not on account
of his riches or his expertness at manipulation.
or course there are very many rich men and
very worthy ones who are not chosen because
OF the possession, or the liberal use of money but
because it is the natural tendency of the times
to give preference to rich men, and.because no
poor man could afford to enter the race with
them.
No end of reforms that would be recognized
as reforms by every thinking person, could be
suggested in our methods of government, but
the mere fact that these abuses are in favor of
the rich, and because Congress is already in
possession of the rich, make it next to lmpos-
sible that any such reforms should be accom-
plished. E, W. L.

The Silrer State has q long edi-

sponsible because q free coinage
bill is not already passed and
signed by the President.
The article Is 80 worded that II

the article with the following;
Every mining camp, village and
farming community in the State
should send petitions to Congress
to pass free coinage bill. Let ut

for the time make reconciliation
which means the reopening OF ole

THE SuRvGvoR-cEnERAL'S
OFFICE.

The Carson Tribune and Keno
Jurnal do not like the idea OF
having the Office Of the Surveyor
General removed to Winnemucca.
They offer no valid objection, how
ever, to the proposed change,
doubtless for the reason that they
have mono to offer. Winnemucca

in Nevada. The people could as
semble here quicker and at less
expense than any other place In
the State. II Government officers
should be located at the most &C.

but IL partisan considerations de-
termine where they shall be locat-
ed, then of course Carson or Reno
have claims superior to Winnie

of Eureka and Carson and 1t

The Effort Of His Life

The New York Sun OF last Mon
day said:
When the silver bill is taken up
for consideration in the Senate on
Wednesday next, Senator Jones
Of Nevada will make the second
great speech Of his life. 1t is an
open secret in the Senate that the
duty OF reporting the silver bill
from the Finance Committee and
of steering it through the Senate
was assigned to Mr.. Jones for the
purpose of giving him an opPor-
tunity to boom his prospects Of re
election. His term expires next
March and there are several am
bilious gentlemen who will en-
deavor to succeed him.

Senator Sherman has announced
on the floor OF the Senate that he
thinks 1t necessary for that body
to have a rule similar to that OF the
House which authorizes the pre-
siding officer to count those pres
emit and not voting when it becomes
necessary in order to make q
quorum. The Democratic Sena-
tors, like their brethren in the
House, object to this rule, but it
will be adopted Notwithstanding.
It is nuw generally believed that
Speaker Reeds idea Of an adj
iournment by the first Of July
will be endorsed by Republican
caucuses OF both Houses. Aside
from the regular appropriation
bills, all those which are in an ad-
vanced state, the tariff bill, the
silver bill, the service pension bill,
and perhaps, but not certain, q
Federal election bill, will be passed
before adjournment. The Demo-
cratic leaders tried their best to
work up a sentiment in their
party against early adjournment,
but owing to the fact that the
most of the members, OF both par
ties, are anxious to be In their
respective districts a. early as
possible this year, but failed.

Where Mr.. Carnegie Made His Money.
Andrew Carnegie, the iron king, made
his first money in the oil country as pro-
ducer of oil. He and some friends bought
the William Story farm on Oil creek in
1860 for $4,000. They organized the Co
lumbia Oil company in May of that year
and proceeded to develop the farm for Pc
troleum. The farm consisted of 400 acres,
and was not far from where Goal Oil
Johnny" found his pot of gold Every
acre of the farm proved to be productive,
and it soon developed into one of the rich
est bonanza farms of the region
Its first years output was 20,S00 barrels,
and the following year this was increased
to $1,000 barrels. The company was organ
lied with e capital stock of $3.50, 0OO and in
two and one-half years dividends had been
declared amounting to 100 per cent of the
capital. In three years the production of
the farm had increased to 141 900 barrels,
and during this year the average price of
oil was s8.ST1S barrel During the first
six months OF this year four dividends
were declared amounting to 100 per cent
OF the capital stock, which was soon in
creased to s., 500, 900. In ten years the farm
produced /, 715,9T2 barrels of oil and is still
producing a small amount. The total
value of the output has been upward OF
10000, 0G0.-New York World
