Gobelin Tapestry.
Real gobelin tapestry 10 hard to find in
the dry goods stores. Much is sold -
gobelin tapestry that il not genuinA
Gobelin has quite . history. and gave .
new word to our vocabulary. A Fem-
ish painter named Gluck found q process
for dyeing beautiful and . very pecul-
lar scarlet, and sold it to Giles Gobelin,
who built factory in France. where he
made tapestries and cloths of this pecul-
lar color. Every body looked on him -
. crank, and his factory was always
spoken of as ''Gobelin's Folly;" but he
made . 60 Of it, and his success was @
great that those superstitious old folks
supposed he was aided by the devil. The
devil was supposed to have taught him
the art of dyeing scarlet on condition
that at . certain time the devil was 70
have him.
When the time was up the devil came
after him. and caught him going through
. yard at night with . little piece ID
lighted candle in his hand. Gobslin
begged for time. but the devil wouldn't
let him have 1t. At last Gobelin ~.
quested his satanic majesty to wait until
the bit Of candle in his hand burned out,
and the devil consented. The willy old
Gobelin, as soon as he got this concession,
threw the candle into the well and
pitched the devil in after it. Tho devil
was very angry, but before he could gel
out Gobelin gathered q guard Of enthu
siasts about him and secured himself
from any further attacks.
Now, for the new word. From THU
story came the word goblin" q ghost
or specter, and it has become one Of thu
words Of the language, but it had 1t,
origin in this silly story that was told
about the man who first made thes>
tapestries. Louis Post Dispatch.

man who takes a large quantity Of print

enormous expense. Barnum determined
to avoid the exaction. He planned a
Canadian tour for 1885. and two years
before he sent tons of posters to Canada
and neglected tic pay the duty. The stuff
laid in the custom house without being
called for and at last the officials decided
to advertise it for sale at auction. Bar

and took Eve long puffs with the great
est satisfaction. Each puff brought such
a look to the face of the owner Of the
cigarette AS is seen on the face Of child
who is letting little friend take bite
from his stick of candy. His generosity

Two gentlemen who were watching the
canvas on which the election returns were

agreed that the republicans of Virginia can
never win until they cease to quarrel among
themselves.
Il think | see them agreeing" said a
third, obviously. Il fanny their renewal
of friendship would be like that of old
Peters and Henshaw."
"And what was that Eke?"
.FWhy, Peters and Henshaw had not
spoken to each other for ten years, though
during all that time they were next-door
neighbors. At last a ~revivalist came along
and so stirred Henshaw' heart that, meet
ing Peters at the church door. he extended
his hand and said:
"'Good morning, Brother Peters
Brother Peters was amazed.
why, Neighbor Henshaw, said ne,
you have not spoken to me for ten years
before. What prompts you to do 70
now?'
brother Peters answered Henshaw,

soul is humbled to the dust. Why, sir, l

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn.-The output of the
barrels less for 1889 than for 1888. The
decrease is caused by the failure of the
spring wheat crop and the high prices OF

Two OF the daughters of Sir Henry
Aaron Isaacs, the new Lord Mayor of Lon
don, are deaf and dumb, but they have
been SO admirably educated on the oral
system in Holland that they can by lip
reading even understand what goes on at

imagine them to be deprived of two of the
best senses.
ST. LOUIS, Mo. = A special from
T~ahlequah, Cherokee Nation to the Re-
public says: The Cherokee council adj
journed sine die Saturday morning. Before
business was finally concluded a letter
from the United States commissioners was
read. 1t said in substance: The United
States government being unwilling to be
embarrassed in the slightest degree by any
course which may hereafter be pursued
with reference to the Cherokee outlet, by
having any offer concerning them, with
draws the offer of purchase made to the
Cherokees, and to which the national
council made no response.
CoNNELLsvILLE, PENNSYLVANIA very
distressing sight was witnessed here, sew
ering a family of eight persons, consisting
of mother and father and six children dis
covered in a starving condition near Meyer
and brought here to be sent to the county
home. The gaunt faces of the elder peo-
pie and the hollow eyes and hungry
looks the little ones elected much sym
pathy from the spectators, but little money
or assistance. The parents had been taken
Ill on the farm and as they had lived in an
isolated place the children could procure
no aid. Their condition was accidentally
discovered by a farmer family, but it had
reached such a stage that it is thought
none can recover.
