OF the pioneer udyS Vi LSAluSVOIl,
of the old block house, and of
many ancient deeds unknown to
you and me. She was twice
married and both husbands met
with sudden death. A twin
sister also died suddenly. Aunt
Patsy is cripple, but she sits
and cuts carpet rags, cheerful
and animated, asking only for
enough rags to keep her busy.
She is a Northern Methodist,
and her church people recently
celebrated her birthday hand
somely.
Mother Steele is very old and
blind, yet she threads he needle
readily by touch, and sews car
pet rags all morning in her
corner. She has been there
fourteen years. Husband and
children were taken from her,
yet she is cheerful and patient.
She is a member of the Main
St. Christian church.
Aunt Jose finds the burden of
life hard to bear, yetShe is faith
full to her chosen work, which
is that of cook. She, too, isalone
in the world. The First Baptist
church is her place of member
ship.
Aunt Susan is seventy-eight.
She is patient and lovely, and
sews for the inmates of the
Home. She has been there only
three years.
Mother G. is seventy-two and
she too, has her cross to bear.
She lost husband and child in
one week, and was left alone.
She believes blind Milton, who
said, "They also serve who
only stand and wait.p -
But down in the basement you
will find a merry, happy old
woman, Aunt Amy. She was
married three times, and her hus-
bands were all named John.
How odd! She surely has only
pleasant memories, apart from
deaths covetous hand, for she
is sunshine itself. She was
husking green corn for dinner,
at my last visit, and on her knee
perched a very knowing chicken,
a young rooster with his first
spurs, named Dick. Dick talked
all the while in an extremely |
high tenor key, and he could
hardly wait for her to break
away the husks before his bill was
pecking inside for a chance
worm hidden in the silk tuft.
He found a good many, too, and
he evidently knew just as much
about it as she did. When she
had finished one, he turned
to the basket for another.
How pleasant, friends, to turn
away from sickness and pain to
this refuge for the aged. What
would become of them without
such a shelter? Hundreds have
come and gone, some to good
homes elsewhere, others to their
last long home.
All glory be to Him, who hath
put it into the hearts Of his
people to let this light shine be-
,ore men.
Yours in Christian love,
Aunt Jean.

managers cannot keep silent, for
out Of the abundance of the
heart, the mouth must speak,
the praise to which they are en-
titled.

Rhode Island.

Wisconsin, Iowa and Rhode Is
land are all threatening to throw
off the Republican yoke What
at encouraging fact! These thres
States have ever since the wa.
been regarded as hopelessly Re.
publican. Whatever Ohio, o.
Pennsylvania, or Illinois, or any
other State might do, those thre'
States were always counted upon.
as bound hand and foot to the Re.
publican party. Very recently
we called the attention of oui
readers to the prospects OF {.
brighter future for the Democrats,
in Iowa and Wisconsin, ttift-How
we have the pleasure of Boosting
that the Democrats have actually
triumphed in Rhode Island. The
results of last weeks elections III
that State will be that The Demo
Gratis will control the General
Committee of the Legislature and
the Democratic candidates who
received plurality of the votes
at the general election will be
chosen and the Republican Gov
.ernor, Ladd, and his colleagues
retired. That is, if no such trick
ery-be resorted to as that which
placed Hayes in the presidential
chair in 1881 and converted Mon
tana into a Republican State in
1889. We shall gain no United
States Senator in Rhode Island as
result of the elections there last
week. The term of one Senator
expires in 1898 and of the other
in 1S95.-Richmond Va, DIS

Hon. Samuel J. Randall died
in Washington ut five o'clock a.
M. 81 sunday. April 18th. lie
was born in Philadelphia, Oct.IO,
1928 and was elected to the 31th
Congress in 1862. He first came
into National prominence as q
leader Of tic Democratic party in;
The fight against the Force bill.
while that measure was pending
W. held the floor for feYfy-seycn
hours and finally defeated it,
passage. Mr.. Randall was elect
ed Speaker Of the House of Rep
rcsentatiyes in 1876 to succeed
Mr.. Kerr, Of Indiana, who had
died In Office, and was again elect
ed to that position in 1877 and
1873, Mr.. Randall was not in
harmony with the majority Of his-
party on the question OF Tariff
Reform, but upon all other ques-
tions ne was a leader Of his party.
He was at al times popular with
Southern D1nscra s, rs it was
mainly through his efforts that
much of the infamy which was
sought to be engrafted in our leg
islation during the reconstruction
pcriond was defeated. We can
just now recall no other men ex-
cept VIM. u. Kelly, who died in
January, and Charles O'Neill, who
survives him, both Of Philadel-
phia, who have served continually
in the house as long.

AS was evident from the time
that Precinct No. 81 of Silver Bow
County, Montana, was stolen, the
Republicans in the Senate have
seated the Republican claimants,
and this completed the most
gigantic steel of the age, except
probably the stealing of the Presi-
dency from Tilden. Senator Ken
no made fine argument in the
case. Below we give an extract
from his closing remarks:
R0BA4RY UNDER PARTY NECESSITY.
They may continue in the pro-
cedune upon which they seem to
be launched. They may bring
two men to the bar of this Senate
in the absence of authorized ac-
ton by the authorities of Mon
tana, or the Republican majority
on this floor may elect, two Re-
publican Senators from that State,
upon the same principle that
anything that will beat down
that party and build up our own
is justifiable in morals and in
law" They may cali them forth
and stand them confronting you,
Mr.. President, with their hands
uplifted to Almighty God and III
the forged name Of Montana, that
star which Harrison discovered at
ten forty in the sunlight Of the.
morning, and they may do it all
because anything that will beat
down That party and build up eur
own is, justi6able in-morals and in
law" but let me remind them
when they undertake this con-
summation and with this one adj
monition | s~nclude. When they
rape ..1e fair Montana, the young
est maiden in the sisterhood of
States, before her maturity, they
do so under, the damning and
aamnable pretext that Anything
that will beat down that party and
build up our own is justifiable in
morals and in law"

The records of the California Pioneers
are full of instances of close association
among the early miners, and one often
comes across evidence that men of New
England were controlling spirits in such
organization. I find, for instance, the
written agreement made in 1913 by few
Massachusetts and Connecticut men, in
Monterey, on going to the mines, 'that
we shall bear an equal share in all ex-
penses; that we viii work together in the
mines and use our tools in common; that
we will stand by each other; that no sick
comrade be abandoned" OF these early
companies some ordered an equal division
of all the gold found others said, "gold
belongs to the finder, but there shall be
equal assessments for expenses" Some
forbade the use of violent spirits except as
medicine. Some arranged for a trust
fund, of ten per cent. OF all the earnings Of
the camp, to be kept in case of sickness or
accident The soher-eyed, shrewd, earnest
New England business men formed the
nucleus of social order in hundreds of
camps scattered along the axis of the
Sierra. In searching many sources for
glimpses of the formative life of the time,
the names one finds are often very dis
tinctly New England names. The old
grave-boards of pine and cedar that still
stand, worn and weather-beaten, on the
hillsides, among the rocks, by forgotten
towns, in Butte, Shasta, Trinity, and Ell
Dorado, tell the same story. "John
Morey, a native of Maine, died December
IL, 1919" Ell Stiles, of Connecticut, died
of fever, November, 1850, at Rough and
Ready Camp.p-New England Magazine.
