For THE SUNDAY HERALD,
WHAT MAKES THE SHADOWS?
BY C. A. s.-J. X. NJ.

shadow shadow? What makes the shadow
DO you nor know that beyond the shadow there
must be light?'--F From sermon IN Rcu. DR.. Mac
Arthur, Iug1St Il, 1880, CALGARY Baptist church.
You ask what makes the shadows when the sun
is sinking down,
Why the darkness on the Eastern side of this old
Potomac town;
why creep the lengthening shadows DER the
fields so far and wide:
'Tis because the sun is shining bright upon the
Western side.
You ask when life has shadows which hide us
from the light,
Whenwe grope about in darkness of the blacklist
kind of night,
Why our hearts refrain from sinking with a
strange uncertain woe:
Tis because the sun is shining on the other side
we know.
So our troubles and our sorrows, like shadows on
the wall,
Seem to cast strange reflection as upon our
lives they fall;
We should lose our every hope, and perish with
despair
If just behind the shadow no light was shining
there.
The dazzling light of heaven is sortened to our
eyes
By the shadows cast by troubles that Tit across
our skies
But L look beyond the darkness, if we only look
Alright.
Winchange the deepest shadow to blazing flood
of light.
So whene'er the gloomy shadows shut out our
perfect sight,
Let faith dispel the darkness and flood the soul
with light;
For Truth is always shining, though oft TO us
unseen
And lights our varied pathway though shadows
intervene.

misused class of individuals. Some day we'7s
find out what they were put on this earth for,
and then know wen be sorry we treated them
so badly for these many centuries. Those
tramps any way, were honest If they hadn't
spoken in confidence about how they got their
food I'd tell you, and ! know you'd agree with
me. Yes, tramps are lazy, they are dirty, they
are OF low condition, maybe, they are profane,
they are eXcitable, they are sometimes vulgar:
but tramps are honest.
While was thus Illuminating and solilouuiz-

and, with more confidence, told me he had
baby back here he wanted me to look at. SO |
went to the politicians shanty, We couldn't
both get inside; SO, he wanted to see the ex-
preston OF pleased surprise on my face, he told
his wife to bring the baby out That's way of
proud fathers I've always found, so tried hard
to look pleased | hadn't any trouble to look
surprised. 1t was the dirtiest-looking baby l

Electricity and Health.
From the n. Y. sun.

From the n. Y. sun.
1t has been remarked, as showing what a
powerful element of health the electric light is,
chat the general health of those who use it i'm =
proves, their appetite and their ability to sleep
increase, and the visits OF the doctor become
less frequent. This is especially apparent in
the statistics of the attendance of working peo-
pie in factories and other places. In the saw
ings bank in Queen Victoria street, London,
where 200 persons are employed, the absences
from illness have been 80 far reduced that the
extra labor gained is said to have paid for the
electric light. The influence of artificial light
on the eyes has also q very important sanitary
bearing. 1t has been asserted that the injury to
the eyes, of which the growing shortsightedness
OF the day is but one result is due TO the heat
rays and not to the light rays If that be SO
the electric light is less injurious than any
other.

The subject of the formation of a
land and improvement company in
Charlestown has been preached among
some of our citizens, and the idea
meets with considerable favor
Nothing would be more conducive to
the permanent and rapid advance
ment of our town than an organiza-
ton of this kind, with sufficient cap
ital to put in in good working trim.
There are numbers of persons in
moderate circumstances, who, if the
opportunity offered, would gladly
avail themselves of the privilege of
purchasing house and paying for it
in monthly instalments, as they now
pay rent. The land and improve
ment company, on the other hand,
could buy land and erect houses
to fill this demand, and dispose of
them on the instalment plan at a good
advance on the amount invested
Our columns are open for any sug-
gestions on this subject.

The West Virginia contest.


The Gubernatorial Contest Com
mittee's report Is complete expo
sure of the islackest conspiracy to
debaueh voters and defeat the wilIof
the people that was ever conceived
in any Southern State. The report
fully vindicates the justice of Judge
Fleming's and the dishonest charac-
ter of Gen. Goff' 5 preteusions. Fol-
lowing are the facts presented in the
report in reference to the counties OF
Mercer and Mcdowell, where the
worst frauds were committed.
"The worst frauds, however, did
not lie here. They were at the head
of the Kanawha Valley, in the thinIy
settled counties of Mercer and Nc
Dowel. In the spring of 1888 the
Norfolk and. Western railroad was
extended into these counties, and
coke ovens were built during the
summer, and large floating popula-
ton brought in and employed on
these works and on the railroad ex-
tension. Nine tenths of these la
borers came from Tazewell and Giles
counties, Virginia, and at the time
of the election had not been in
the State six months. The evidence
shows that the Republican leaders
marshaled tile negroes to the polls,
inundated election judges where OPP

of them in two precincts. Mercer
county gave a Democratic majority
of 700 in 1876; in 1888 Republic
can majority was secured. A change
almost as great occurred in Mellow
ell county. The startling holiness
of the fraud can be seen by one
circumstance, which was proved by
scores of witnesses. A white Repub-
lican collected seventy-siX of these
negroes from the works at BIuefieId,
Mercer county, w. Va. They all
voted there in the morning, then
they boarded train and crossed the
line into Virginia, where the negroes,
who were honatide residents cast
their ballots without protest. An
other train carried the whole gang
into Elthorn, Mcdowell county, w.
Va. where they marched to the polls
crazy with drink, and with hran-
dished clubs aud REVIEWERS placed
their Harrison and Golf ballots into
Tie bux.
The Circuit Court of Mercer
county met shortly after the election.
Judge johnson delivered ringing
charge. and the grand jury, acting
under his instructions, returned over
300 indictments fur illegal voting,
and many of tllose indicted have
been already tried, but the great ma
jority fled the State. and the places
which knew them once know them
no more. In considering these
frauds, the Contest Committee acted
with great conservatism. Only I75
Republican votes were cast out in
Mercer and Mcdowell, and these
we're the votes of men who were reg
istered in Virginia and at the same
time voted in West Virginia.

The Boston Transcript, a conserv-
alive Republican paper, favors the
marking by monuments the positions
held by the Confederate regiments
at the battle of Gettysburg. Among
other things the Transcript says /:
"As the Englishmen of to-day look
back with a common pride to the
fiery valOr of Rupert's cavaliers and
steadfast courage of Cromwelrs Iron
sides, so, we believe, the Americans
of the next century will feel a com
mon glow of gratifed nationality as
they read the brave story of the
three great days at Gettysburg
There could not have been three DAYS
of such fighting unless there had been
great qualities on both sides-not
only physical bravery, but moral
herOism. 1t is of no use to question
this; it belittles our own triumph to
deny it, This is in pleasing con-
trast with the. recent petty utterances
of Pittsburg Grand Army Post
and Gov. Beaver in regard to the
Maryland Confederate monument ON
the Gettysburg battlefield.
