Al Editors Dream.

The editor sat on hard-bottomed chair,
trying to think thought, and he plunged
ali his fingers through his hair, but no
topic they brought.
He had written on temperance, tariff
and trade, and the prospects of making a
good crop, and had joked about ice cream
and weak lemonade, till his readers had
told him to stop. And weary of thinking.
sleep came to his eyes, and he pillowed
his head on his desk; when the thoughts
which awake had refused to arise, came
in troops that were thick and grotesque.
And as the ideas airily float, he sleeps the
bright one of the tribe, and this is the
gem which, while dreaming he wrote:
Now is the time to subscribe"

engaged in these fraudulent and unlawful
enterprises invariably do so under an as.
sumed name, and when the character and
business of such persons is discovered by
the postal authorities, such matter ad-
dressed to them is declared fictitious ,
and delivery withheld.
Eighty thousand were parcels of
merchandise, books, clothing, neadle-
work, Jewel, etc, ETC., many of which
were misdirected, while others were with
out wrapper having been insecurity in
closed and others from which the address
become separated and lost.
A large proportion were those upon
which the required amount of postage to
entitle them to transmittion throug the
mails had not been prepaid, insufficient
payment being due to improper inclosing,
whereby higher rate of postage was re-
quired.
Twenty EIGHT thousand contained money
amounting in all to $4S, 642 90
Four thousand had Enclosures of postal
notes in small sums under S. aggregasing
IS, 800.
Twenty-seven thousand were found to
contain drafts, checks, notes, commercial

90, while forty EIGHT thousand contalne
paid and cancelled obligations, receipts
evidencing payments of money, deed,
mortgages, general miscellaneous papers
ETC., etc.
Forty-two thousand contained photo
graphs, one thousand contained articles
forbidden to be transmitted through the
mails and eleven thousand upon being
opened were found to contain lottery tick
cts, which, under the terms of the law,
are declared unavailable.
One hundred and sixty-two thousand
contained postage stamps, and were incio-
sures to secure return answers to the cor
respondence which they accompanied, or
were the remittances in payment of small
balances, or accompanying orders for
small purchases of merchandise, sub

DR.. Tohn Bulls Sarsaparilla.

Our druggists tell US they are selling a
great dsal of Dr.. John Bulls Sarsaparilla.
IL has not been advertised much in this
vicinity, and We take it that the large dem,
and for it is attributed merely to extraordi
nary merit as blood purifier and streng-
thening alternative. We know of several
instances where it has put sick men and
women on their feet after physicians had
exhausted their skill. 1t is a medicine
that certainly goes right to the spot, the
very first dose seeming to do good. The
blood is the life and we believe there is no
other medicine made so powerful as q
blood purifier as this remedy. And ii
does look as if when the blood is made
pure person naturally gets well. We
advise anv of our sub crlbers who are all
iug and feel sick from any cause whatever
TO give Dr. Bulls Sarsaparila an imme-
date trial.-Cocengtoa Express.

SILENCE.
Written for The American.

Written for The American.
A mortal stood on the marble pave
OF a temple quaint and grand
His trembling eyes gazed on Its nave,
As he knocked with a faltering hand.
The priestess Of this tempted shrine,
With vestal votive altar vows,
Her robes entwined with rays divine,
In solemn silence humbly bows
Her acoytes in spotless white
With censor waving fume,
Are kneeling round the central light,
OF the shadowy full orbed moon
The perfumed air Is heavy,
with the oppression silence filings
Der cbanceled aisle, and arohway,
ItAnd speeds with noiseless wings
wbeye ohiseled marble sings In the sad rsfrall
OF Angerona, mute tongued goddess,
OF ancient Roman fame.
The mortal looks In wonder
At the portals pllared arch,
And sees the long procession
AS they slowly countermarch,
To leave the sacred fire,
On each alabastered urn.
It's incense mounting higher,
Its vestal lamp to burn.
Alone he stands by the vestal flame
or the affairs, quenchless fire
He breathes aloud the sacred name,
And his hearts unchanged desire
Go mortal, tits not for thee to know
The lessons that flow from the gods.
Drink deeply of Lethes deepest flow.
where Pluto so dismally mods;
Then seek among the mighty shades.
That roam Elysian Fields,
Anaxarchus, who to save mis- trust,
Bit off his tongue to shield
The secret that no torture could,
Nor tyrant make him yield.
He threw the severed member,
In Ncocreons' hated face,
While all Cyprus, will remember,
The nobest of his race.
Seek the servants Of old Plancus.
That encountered every pain,
But ner revealed the secrets,
Though life's thread was cut in twain.
Kneel before Athene's statue,
OF molten FURNISHED brass.
Its tongueless mouth lesson
To the thoughtless as they pass.
Bow down to Harpocrates,
Rgyptas silent god,
As with moveess marble finger,
Pressed on each lip of stone,
He tells US Of the secrets
That should ever be our own
Go seek the grave Lyeurgus,
Far famed for gifts of law,
And he will truly tell thee,
OF this jewel without flaw.
Then seek the wise Pythagoras,
Who instilled in youthful minds,
That five years of studious silence
Was wisdom's band that binds
The golden sheaf of knowledge
And the scattered thoughts of gold,
Which the rpening frost Of winter
Gathers in the harvest fold.
Then take thy willing footsteps
Along the aisles Of time,
Along the starry pathway,
To the gods abode divine,
When thou hast truly worshipped
At each votive altared shrine,
And slipped from golden chalice
Great Joves immortal wine,
Drink deeply of the water
That alls the Pierian Spring,
That you may not fill the heavens
With Icarus' ruined wings.
The mute unbroken silence,
That nature ever filings
Ger her grand and lofty temples,
And all created things,
Is the anthem of the spheres
As they sail in endless space
Their strains too grand and lofty,
For the Adams earth born race.

BRIGADE SIGNAL CORPS.
Its Three Days Encampment in Marir
County.

Its Three Days Encampment in Marin
County.
After the parade on Memorial day the
Signal Corps of the Second Brigade, n. G..
c., went into camp at Mil Valley, Marin
County. The advance guard, which had
gone out on Thursday, selected most
picturesque field for the camp, through
which the Blithedale Creek flows. Imme-
diately upon arrival in camp, sentinels
were posted, and throughout the encamp-
ment all military rules and customs were
strictly observed.
During the evening the boys congregated
about the large campfire, and singing and
storytelling were In order. Promptly at 10
o'clock, however, taps" were sounded,
and for the rest of the night "quiet reigned
supreme" only disturbed by the sentries
calling the hours. Saturday morning was
spent in drilling and signaling, circuit of
nine stations having been located on the
neighboring hills. In the afternoon the
corps entertained its friends, and many
ladies and gentlemen visited their soldier
boy friends. Among these was Lieutenant
Colonel Denicke, Division Signal Officer.
who expressed himself as well pleased with
the camp and the work of the corps.
On Saturday evening there was more
signaling, and the flash and flare of the
torches on the hilltOps attracted much at
tentiOn from the natives" The most in-
teresting portion of the work was reserved
for Sunday morning, when a squad was
sent out to establish heliograph station
on the summit of Mount Tamalpais. The
home station was posted on hill near The
camp, and for some time messages were
flashed over this range.
AT last Sunday afternoon came, and with
it the time for breaking camp, which was
done with great reluctance, every one hav-
ing greatly enjoyed the three days. OF the
forty men enlisted in the corps twenty-nine
in IN
