A POOR SHOWING.

Tie enormity of the gag law rule OF
the majority in the lower house OF con-
gress was brought home to the Western
people BY its application to the silver
question. Two days are given to the dis
cussiou of the measure which provides
for a coinage of "a, 500, 900 of silver
monthly when it was openly stated in the
house and is no doubt true, thst the ma
ionty-that Is the Democrats with some
Western Republicans-favor unlimited
coinage. This arbitrary measure will IN
doubtedly pass, most of the Republicans
favorirg free coinage being coerced into
voting for this bill through toe threat that
only in obeying this dictation can they
hone to get through any measures in
which they or their constituencies are d.
rectly interested
This is a very slight concession to the
the demand for the reconciliation Of sill
yer. There are now coined 81, 600, 900 in
silver monthly and the added 81, 500, 900
will have a scarcely appreciate effect in
easing up the existing financial stress.
TIE denomination Of silver in 1873 did
more to increase the possessions OF the
rich than even the war tariff. The
tremendous shrinkage thus occasioned in
the volume of the circulating medium,
the appreciation in value Of money, bonds
anC all classes Of credit BY an average of
about 80 per cent and the same relative
appreciation in the burthens of debts and
proportionate decrease In the value Of
property and the product OF labor have
contributed millions and quadrupled the
burthens Of the poor.
But what can be expected of the party
which is confessedly the representative of

Many years ago. when drinking habits
were more prevalent than now, Il Con-
gregational minister . York county
preached n very strong temperance ser
mon that made n sensation in the parish.
Some of the leading members OF the con-
gregation felt insulted. They got up
and left the house during the sermon,
and then sent a letter demanding an
apology or the preachers resignation.
The next Sunday the pastor announced
from the pulpit that he would comply
with the gentlemen's request in the even
ing. OF course, everybody who could go
to the church that evening was there,
the disaffected ones with smiles on their
faces at the thought of how they had
~triumphed over the minister. The wor-
thy man assembled the pulpit, went
through the preliminary exercises, and
hen announced his text: And being
convicted by their own consciences they
went out one by one" The sermon
preached from that text was q sumner,
but nothing more was said about n
apology, and the minister did not resign.

How = Young Lawyer Defended an In
Jured Woman and Made . Reputation
Jonathan II. Pugh was a pale faced
young lawyer. Day after day he sat
waiting for clients, put o came. The
first term of court appeared and his name
had not appeared on the docket. At that
time my father was clerk of the circuit
court. One day there came to him a
poor, sad woman. who poured into his ear
a pitiful tale of woe. A brother-in-law
had robbed her OF all the property left
her by her dead husband, had oppressed
and abused her, and wa now seeking to
take from her care her only child, n little
girl 8 years old. Ny father became
deeply Interested in the woman and
promised to help hor. He at once sent
for Pugh. The young lawyer came and
took charge of her case.
The poor woman's brUtherin-law was
rich, and he employed the best Of u
sci. and made every preparation in his
power to defeat her in court and subject
her to still greater oppression. He even
circulated the most slAnderous stories
against her, and succeeded in totally de-
stroying her good reputation.
This story kindled the soul of Pugh,
and he went TO work with a fierce deter
mination to unmask the villain. The
day for the trial arrived. The neighbor-
hood was thoroughly aroused, and the
old court room was crowded with specta-
tors. The sad and dreamy young lawyer
became another mana bold and daunt-
less knight fighting for outraged woman
hood. He arose to speak. The silence
was painful. With a master hand he
laid before court and jury the work OF
the poor woman's oppressor. The per-
jured witnesses withered beneath his
fiery denunciation. Judge, jurors and
spectators cent forward to listen.
As he told Of the woman's wrong tears
filed the eyes Of all. Then he turned
from the weeping woman 10 the author
Of her sorrows In terrible language he
expressed the villainy of the man. Sud
denly he faced the victim Of his scorn,
and pointing his ~quivering finger at him
exclaimed: you have stolen from this
poor woman all her property. Not only
this; you have robbed her not only of her
last dollar, but Of what is more precious
than gold-her good name. And now,
with savage hands, you try to tear from
her arms her darling child. In the aw-
full hereafter you should not even be al
lowed the miserable comfort Of herding
with the common damned, but in some
lower. deeper hell be compelled, singly
and alone, to howl out an eternity o
Woe"
As Pugh reached this climax it fel
like Il bolt of thunder on the ears of tn
guilty man, and he rushed headlong iron
the court room. Pugh's reputation wa
made. He was flooded with clients an,
was at once one Of the busiest lawyers ii
town. -nlinois State Journal.

yes" said Jones, Il came near
striking it rich once in my life. Rob
inson and l went into the patent medi-
cine business, you see. We got our
stuff compounded and bottled, and
then it occurred to us hat we hadn't
decided what to call it, a cure for con-
sumption or a cure for dyspepsia. l
went in for dyspepsia, but Robinson
insisted on consumption, and he had
his way, confound himl The weather
was unusually mild for six months
after we got u stuff on the market,
and the consumptives all got better in
consequence. The result was that our

Remember hat there are few things
one is so 10th to loan as books-if we
except money. 1t is curious, too, that
a book, like an umbrella, is commonly
reckoned public property. Few peo-
pie trouble themselves to return it.
Considering the vast cost of even an
un~pretending library, this is very ex-
asperating to the eager book hunter,
who makes many annual sacrifices
that he may add a few choice volumes
TO his meager store.
he may defend himself, however,
il he will. He may politely decline to
lend his treasures. When you have
borrowed a book you have no possible
excuse for loaning it on your own re-
sponsibility. To do so is TO violate every
law of good faith, and to incur either
the open Or tacit d~ispleasure of the
friend who obliged you. Chicago

WE are pleased to note that public in
terest is beng aroused through TIE
LEADERS, expose OF the true inWardness
OF Major Powell's extraordinary land law.
1t is not too much to say that even state
hood is q no more desirable desideratum
than the absolute repeal of this pernicious
bill, for under its provisions scarcely n
foot of land in Wyoming could be taken
up by the actual settler. Wyoming should
send a stirring protest to Washington.

A Meeting In an Elevated Car Arouses a
Mantle Would Like to Know More.
81 plead guilty to a good deal of Gu,
riosity, i" said an old man with a rather
ford face, kindly, twinkling eyes,
and friendly, good natured lines
around the mouth. Il would give a
good deal 20 know all the circumstan-
ces of an unusual meeting which ]
saw the other day. l was in an ele-
waited train, and on the cross seat OPP
posite me sat a little woman who must
have been about 20 years old. She was
still very pretty, although her blue
eyes were a little faded. She was the
kind OF a woman who, when a girl,
must have been plump, but who had
not grown stout with years. Her
complexion was as clear and soft as a
girls, and the curves of her lips were
very gently fashioned. ] was study
ing over the top of my paper the
graceful lines Of her slender hands
when a man seated himself by my
side. ! saw two spots OF color sudden
ly appear in her cheeks, and then she
quickly turned her head and looked
steadily out Of the window.
II could not resist the temptation to
take a good look at my neal neighbor.
He was tall and dark, and in his black
hair was a fine sprinkling of gray.
His face was smooth shaven, save for
a mustache, which, like his hair, was
grizzled. Fine lines were traced be-
meath his eyes, and the eyes had rather
a far away expression, as if they ~
searching for something which had
been lost. Apparently he saw nothing
around him.
FINALLY his dark eye rested on the
little oma before him, and he look
ed hurriedly around as if he intended
to leave his seat. The blue eyes across
the way were still looking out of the
window, and the pink spot had not yet
faded from the one cheek which was
turned toward me. The mar moved
uneasily in his seat"
And then" one Of the story tellei'i
hearers broke in, two lovers met af-
ter long years, etc"
mo" said the story teller, II have
not said So
They were divorced and this was
their first meeting in a long time"
ventured another with a laugh.
"Boshl" said the narrator, with an
impatient wave of his hand.
Sister and brother parted in early
youth by a cruel fate" cried a third,
determining not to be outdone in sug
gestions.
Wrong again, so far as | know"
