"He'll come round" said Mr.. Bald
win, cheerfully. "You've been keeled
over for half an hour" he remarked to
the lineman. "You can be thankful you
are here. A man going along there in a
wagon saw you lying there dead--that's
what he reckoned--and picked you up
and brought you back, knowing this was

Fiducia demonstrated; but Eunice
came.
That was all the lineman was conscious
of.
Was it'by preconcertion9 Abner and
Fiducia and Mr.. Baldwin somehow got
out of the room-Fiducia gracefully,
Abner awkwardly, the fat grocer lum-
beringly; and the lineman was alone with
Eunice.
In spite of his Jared lameness he sat
up-sat up and groped for Eunice's
hands. Yes, Eunice had been crying.
"Eunice," said the lineman, ''let me
hold your hand just this moment, while
II tell you. 1t was my own fault get

Though she was crying again, Eunice
did not take her hands away. They
seemed TO nestle in the lineman's.
"Wnat do you mean?" she cried, half
Indignantly. "Do you mean Silas Bald
win2"
"Why, yes" the lineman stammered.
''Silas Baldwin," said Eunice, with
amazed eyes on the lineman's upturned
face. "I've known him all my life.
He's about forty, Silas is, and he's
married man, but his wife's off visiting
her folks in Illinois. He runs over here
oftener now t he's all alone"
Then Eunice removed her hands to
wipe her tears.
"Wal," the lineman gasped, dazed,
Inundated, strangely happy, "I've been
tarnal fooll"
The lineman got we'll, though it was
discovered that he had fractured one of
his ribs. He said he was glad of it; he
took it for a judgment upon him. Besides,
being nursed to recovery by Eunice was
far from being an unpleasant state of
affairs.
He and Eunice were married as soon
as ever he was able to be, and Sammy
and Molly, in high feather, stood up with
them.
The tall, silver lamp, presented by FL
ducia's cousin, Silas Baldwin, and his
wife, was the finest of the wedding pres
9nts by all odds.-Saturdoy Night.

Stanley's WOOing.

The story of Stanley's wooing is grad
ually being disclosed. He first met Miss
Tenant when last in England, and for
awhile was received with the same cool
ness which usually characterized the
lady's reception of attentions from gen.
tlement. But the indomitable courage,
energy and wonderful powers of descrip-
tion possessed by the explorer gradually
won the heart of one who possessed sim
liar traits in so marked degree, and
when Stanley managed to pluck up suf-
ficient courage to propose she tainted
with mingled delight and excitement.
She promised to wait until he returned
from his next African trip, and insisted
that their engagement should be kept
secret.
The letters which have passed between
"Stanley Africanus" and Miss Tennant,
if they ever see the light of publication
love letters of eminent persons are now
included in the printers prey--will be
truly curious stories, for no doubt the
explorer told more to his lady love than
he will ever confess elsewhere of the
awful tribulations of his march through
the African swamps and forests. His
brother explorers were aware of their
commanders love story, and many tree
in the strange lands visited has "Dolly"
deeply cut into the bark. The natives
used to think it the sign of the white
chiefs fetish and often prostrated them
selves before it. In one of his letters
Stanley wrote such narrowing account
of the sufferings of his band and gave
such a vivid picture of the death of gi-
gantic negro slowly swallowed by huge
serpent that Miss Tenant swooned after
reading it Commercial AdvertiSer.

M1NINs.

The two pillars that support tho trade and commerce of the world are Mining and Agriculture. All other business is based upon and supported by these. Manufacturers take the raw material and change it into forms adapt ed for use. Then come the great army of middle men, who really produce nothing, and live on the profits they can make between the producer and consumer. When one stops to analyze the subject he is amazed that so few people produce anything, while so many people live upon what has been produced by trading and trafiicking in the same. Mining, of course, includes the mining of all metale as well as that of gold and silver. It also includes coal, salt, sulphur, etc, but all of these, while important to the peace and pros perity of the world at large, have not the same effect upon mankind. Be- cause gold and silver are used US money metals, their importance becomes su- preme, and the increased or diminished supply is followed by consequences of vast moment to the world.
 History proves that whenever these metals were in abundance in any nation at that period it had great prosperity They might continue 10 mine other metals, but their prosperity departed when the precious metals were drained away.
 Silver mines pay better for the amount of money invested ill them than any other business that is done. This is fact. The trouble is, people expect to put in dollar. and to draw out thousand and that at once. It Is well known that the silver mines of the United States are producing S64 000,- 900 year, and yet to heal certain wiseacres talk, you would think such thing as pound of silver had never been produced.
 Gold and silver are different in their action from other metals; they are not consumed, but their influence is per petual, A mine, therefore, that pro duces one million of dollars in geld oI silver, has added not only that one million of new wealth to the world, but much more, and in this way money in this country at the present time, fos each dollar carries about fifty dollars worth of property, so that the one mil lion of new wealth produced from the mine, will add about fifty millions of dollars to the property value in the United States. No other sort of min ing can show state of affairs like this except the mining of silver and gold therefore 1t is the noblest business ill the world. Silver Dollar.

A little water is now flowing through the Florence canal, the first for an in. terval of several dry weeks. The farm CTS along its route have seen their crops twice destroyed during the pres ent year and some of them are thor oughly discouraged and will make no further attempts at improving their ranches until fully assured that water can be supplied at all seasons of the year. We do not know where the fault lies; there has been plenty of water in the river since the rains began, but every effort to send it down the canal has caused a break that has delayed matters to the great disappointment of all concerned.

The following clipping from the Tombstone Epitaph is, in view of the fact that MT. Peter R. Brady is can- didate for Joint Councilman on the Democratic ticket, having a wide circu lation for political effect, and as it i'm pugns the integrity of MT. Brady it is proper that the truth should be told in feference to the matter to which it re- fers. Here it is, read it, but don't form your judgment upon ex-parte testimo- ny: Let us see. It was Zulick, was it not, who interposed his veto to save Stevens and the rest of the Democratic Prison Commissioners from an inyesti- gation? Subsequent events went to show that he knew what he was about Brady, one of Stevens bondmen, who has not yet settled with the Territory, is now candidate for the Legislature. Why this anxiety on the part of the Democrats to get these two men into the Legislature? It is born of desire to stave of an investigation that would make some ugly disclosures? This great concern of the Democrats about the Legislature looks suspicious, Bet ter vote for Nichols anyhow, as he is much the safer man.
 Note particularly the drift of the re- priGt in reference to Mir Brady and how few brief words give lighter and a brighter coloring than .hat given by the Tombstone Epitaph. Newspa- pers for many months have rung the changes in regard to Geo. II. Stevens bondsmen and now comes the doleful sound of the Epitaph that Brady, "a surety for Stevens who has not yet set tied with the Territory, is now a candi- date for the Legislature. Without multiplying words, it is only necessary to give quietus to that roorback to say that Brady IS not and never was a bondsman for George II. Stevens, nor is he, or has he been personal friend of the veritable George.
 The next in order is its reference to the "born desire" of the Democracy ''to get Brady into the legislature to Btave off an investigation that would make some ugly disclosures, and now, for the truth of history, we will say, as evidence that Brady courted investiga- ton; it was he who instigated the bill which R. E. Sloan introduced and caused to pses both branches of the Fifteenth legislative assembly, which xnliek vetoed

HEADQUARTERS GRAND ARMY OF THE REpupLIc, Rutland. Vt. Aup. Doth. 1890.

Rutland. Vt, Aug. 20th, 1890,
 COMRADES :--The Grand Army of the Republic was never in better con dition than at the present time. It's strength and power are commensurate with its numbers, now nearly oae-half million Comrades. But its mission is not complete. We are comrades not for personal benefit to ourselves, but to enable us individually the better to do good to others who stood at our side in the shock of battle There are far too many such, not enrolled with ns and therefore not within the reach of the full benefits of our order, Thoy lose the advantage and inspiration of fraternal associations which the Post room, the only club house of the aver age veteran affords. The relief fund of the Post is not sure to reach them in their distress They ao not go with us to visit the sick, to feed the hungry, or to bury the dead corarade. Our badge, which Grant and Sheridan prized and Sherman wears, does not decorate their breasts as the insignia of honor for their valiant service.
 No veteran joins the Grand Army of the Republic and enters into its work in the spirit of true comrade-ship, with out being lifted to loftier manhood and to the plane of better citizenship. We therefore fail in duty if we fail to do our utmost to bring all who offered their lives for flag and country within our organization. They all now know that such membership cannot infringe the free exercise of political inclination or religious faith.
 The Commanders int Chief therefore appeals to Posts Bnd comrades to bring upon our rolls all worthy veterans of the Union army and navy, who are not there already, and to let none be drop ped therefrom for inability to pay the small dues incumbent upon member ship
 He also solicits from Department Commanders and all comrades frank suggestions upon matters within admin istratiye jurisdiction pertaining to the welfare of the order By vigorous CO., operation along our lines they are sure to be greatly advanced, and our coun- trymen will ever rise up to bless us for true devotion to Fraternity, Charity and Loyalty, even as they hold us in honor for brave deeds on tn battle fields of the Republic.
 Yours in F. c. and L.
