The Democrats have no hope Of de-

him as much as possible have revived
the story that he voted for the Win
dom bill, which they know is utterly
false.-[ Enterprise.
Mr.. Bartine voted in committee for
a bill which in many respects was
more Objectionable than the Window
bill, and one which as against the
then existing Bland law, would not
have received half dozen votes in

this bill and against the report of a
Free coinage measure which received
the approving signatures Of the two

just out between half and three-quarters of a
mile into the waters Of the Welsh bay that
lies behind Rumball Point. At low tide
these rocks are bare, so that man may walk
or wade to their extremity; but when the
food is full, only one or two of the very
largest can from time to time be seen pro-
jecting their weed-wreathed heads through
the wash of the shore-bound waves. In GER
tain sets of the wind and tide this is terri
BILE and most dangerous spot in rough
weather, as more than one vessel has
learned to her cost. So long ago as
1870 three-deeker man-of-war went ashore
there in a furious winter gale, and,
with one exception, every living soul on
board OF her, to the number of 200, was
drowned. The one exception was man in
irons, who came safely and serenely ashore
seated upon a piece of wreckage. Nobody
ever knew how the shipwreck happened,
least of all the survivor in irons, but the
tradition of the terror of the scene yet lives
in the district, and the spot where the bones
of the drowned men still peep grimly
through the sand is not unnaturally sup
posed to be haunted. Ever since this
catastrophe large bell (it was originally
the bell of the ill-fated vessel, and still
bears her name, II. N. s. Thunder, stamped
upon its metaD has been fixed upon the
highest rock, and in times of storm and at
high tide sends its solemn note of warning
booming across the deep.
But the bell was quiet now, and just be-
meath it, in the SHADOW Of the rock whereon
it was placed, a man half hidden in sea-
weed, with which he appeared to have pur-
posely covered himself, was seated upon
piece of wreck. In appearance he was
very fine man, big shouldered and broad
limbed, and his age might have been 30 or
little more. OF his frame. however, what
between the mist and the unpleasantly damp
seaweed with which he was wreathed, not
much was to be seen. But such light as
there was fell upon his face as he peered
eagerly over and round therock, and glinted

full breath. Then took glass of moxie,
and wondered what had better do.
Wha: would you have done, gentle

tirely. I wanted to captdre him before he
killed any more helpless people.

the brow.

striking countenance, with its brownish eyes,
dark peaked beard and strong features, yery

they feed further along the coast.
Now if there is thing in the world which
calls for the exercise of mans every faculty
it is curlew shooting in mist. Perhaps he
may wait for an hour or even two hours and
see nothing. not even an oyster catcher.
Then at last from miles away comes the
faint wild call of curlew on the wing. He
strains his eyes; the call comes nearer, but
nothing can be see. At last, 70 yards or
more to the right, he catches sight of the
flicker of beating wings, and like flash
they are gone. Again a call-the curlew
are fighting. He looks and looks, In his

then our bellicose friend cut his stick and
his story at the same time, nor STAYED to say
farewell. We wondered at his flight until
we saw approaching the stout official who
collected the pennies for the chairs.

It was a ludicrous sight to see the gentle

ready to dare everything flee before petty

A fair lady writes: Cant you explain
about gaining and losing day when you

it makes my head go round, too." Ger
tainly, ma'am, only you must fix your mind
on one thing at time and not let it go a.

then, there is no day lost or gained. What

wherefore, don'D is date, not day. In
travelling westward, each date, commonly
called day, hides the fact that for each de-
gree of longitude passed over you have
added four minutes to the "a hours.
AT noon, when by custom you change your
date, you find you have traversed 10 degrees,
then your "day" has contained % hours in
stead OF "a. In going to the eastward, the
conditions would be reversed, and your date
called day" would contain but % hours.
But If you and your friend should stand
Daek to back at New York, and starting at
the same instant walk straight round the
world, each walking exactly three miles an
hour and never stopping for anything, you
would both meet and pass half way in ex-
actly $500 hours, and you would again
meet In New York in exactly 1000
hours- State the time in hours and YOU will
