OCTOBER MAGAZINES.

The city of Cairo to many Americans
is only a confused memory of the dom
keys and dragomans, mosquitoes, der
wishes, and mosques. 1t is revealed on
ly 10 those who stay there long after
the first impressions are worn away,
or who return. It must be seen
with the actual eyes, and without
haste. This is why so many descrip-
tions of the Egyptian capital have fail
ed to give an adequate idea of its true
character-its people, its climate, its
peculiar attractiveness. The traveller
who arrives and leaves according to a
fixed programme is not likely to carry
away with him such pleasant impress
sions of the place as thos , recorded by
Constance Fenimore Woolson in re-
markably entertaining paper on "Cai-
70 in $780," which she has prepared for
the October number of Harper's Mag
azine. This paper, which will be very
fully illustrated, is perhaps the most
complete, most interesting, and most
impartial description of modern Cairo
yet written. This is only one of many
attractive articles III the October Har-
per.
"Can we make it rain ~ is to-day
one of the most important questions
engaging the attention of the practical
scientists. As is well known there are
millions of acres of land in the valleys
and plains of our Western territory,
embracing portions of ten States,
which are at present nothing but arid
desert wastes for want of rain. IrrI-
CATION has been successfully employed
for many years in. limited portions of
this region, and wherever this has
been done the result has been the pro-
duction of enormous crops, and the
wilderness has literally been made to
blossom as the rose. But irrigation is
expensive, and the supply of water

birds sings, an dere's cherries on de
trees"
A pastoral, surely, that you and 1
might wish to have written In 80 rev
words and with so true touch!
In the number of those newly re-
turned is Bertha. Bertha is little
blue-eyed German girl from Gotham
Court, who had never seen the grass
and trees until now. Bertha has o
poet soul in that squat, sturdy body OF
hers. az never saw child like her,
said the good woman Of the farm
where the child had staid. And 1t is
very likely such children are not COM
mon.
"Was it very strange in the coun-
try?" I asked her.
"I could hear the clock tick all the
time.n answered the child.
Go down to Gotham Court and you
will understand that. All day there
is the long rumble of the city's.streets.
Sometimes the sound is loud and
smites sharply on the nerves; some
times it is heavy and dull, or pierced
through with the cries of men and lit
tie children. Can you think what 1t
would be to live where you could nev-
er be sure that you heard the sound OF
your timepiece, and to come to hold II
as the strangest of surprises that you
could "hear the clock tick all the
timer"
Most children like the grass and
trees, but this child loved them with
an eager, quivering delight that was
pathetic. Bertha seldom Joined the
children in their play, but as soon as
her meals and her sleeping time were
over ran out to throw herself at full
length in the grass, face downward,
and with arms wide-stretched, as If to
gather it all to her bosom. And as
she lay there she would talk to each
separate grass blade, and stroke the
faces of the leaves on the bushes as
she passed by. Onemorning she CAME
stealing down with the first pink
streaks in the east.
"Why don't you sleep, Bertha?'
asks the house-mother as the child
came down the stairs.
1.-THE leaves talked and I couldn't,
she answered, gazing with eager eyes
at the open door.
And yet Bertha will probably never
know that her brother poet, Sidney
Lanier, wrote years ago
/ ssIu nv sleep Twas fain Of their fellowship,
/ Fain OF the lfve-oak, the marsh and the main;

THE ALLIANCE MANIFESTO.

From the ElDorado Republican.
The Alliance representatives have
issued a manifesto laying the blame
for the inactivity of the last Legisla-
ture on the Senate. In the meantime,
when Alliance men spring the man.
ifesto, good Republicans should read
it and hand your Alliance friend the
following:
Why was the Senate fee and salary
bill which would save thousands of
dollars annually, killed in the House?
Why was not $4,000 year saved
the people in the State Printers con-
tract?
Why did the Alliance men in the
House vote down resolution to EN-.
ploy union printers in the State Print.
er's Office, and thereby going.straight
back on organized labor?
Why was not the Senate mortgage
bill passed?
Why was not the Senate fee and
salary bill passed by the House?
Why was not the Senate insurance
bill passed by the House?
Why was not the Senate usury bill
passed by the House?
Why has the Alliance House the
distinguished honor Of being the first
Legislature in Kansas that proposed
such legislation as to call for a protest
from the railroad labor organization
on a matter of wages?
Why did the Alliance House kill
the bill requiring railroads to employ
competent telegraph operators? A
great per cent of the railroad wrecks
of this country are caused by the in.
competapt telegraph operators, and
yet when the legislative board of the
employees drafted a bill governing the
hiring of telegraph operators, the AL
lance legislature killed the bill.
Why did the Mohler waiver of ap'
praisment bill, which passed the Sen
ate, fail in the House?
Mr.. Rightmire, at the request of the
legislative board, drafted bill for g
State Board of Arbitration. 1t wa:
given to the Attorney General to ex'
anime, and afterwards presented te
the House for passage. But it sleeps
the sleep thatknows no waking, along
with the rest of the bills asked for by

THE COUNTRY AS SEEN BY THE FRESH
AIR CHILDREN.
Harper's BaZar.

Harper's BaZar
The fresh-air children see the coun-
try with their own eyes, not with
yours or mine. They steadily refuse
to crafty the taste of sentimental and
exacting persons by becoming morbid
ly lost in marvel, or rapt in poetic
fancy. Occasionally one finds child
whose mind is so sensitive, and who
develops a rare appreciation Of the
beauty of living close to the heart of
things, but usually these charity chill
dren enjoy whatever comes to them in
just the same, unrefecting, prosaic,
wholesome way that we find most
gratifying and healthful in our own
children.
Very strange and wonderful every
thing is to them, to be sure; but in a
land where everything is strange and
wonderful, one loses sight of special
marvel. A peculiar and disastrous
hailstorm once swept over a farm
where a dozen children were staying.
The children of the house were terri
fled, but the little visitors were per-
fectly calm.
al thought maybe it always rained
sharp glass IN the country" said one
little girl when they asked her why
she wasn't afraid.
Here are few incidents and anec-
dotes set down as they come to me
from troop of little ones who came
back few days ago from fortnight
at Glens Falls. Some are sad, some
are funny, some are only child-like. 1
hope they are all significant. L gath
cred lot of these children about me,
and asked them what they had seen
and done.
"I seen a cow" shrills one little girl
instantly. "Cows has horns, and lets
down milk, and hooks you when your
hair is the same color as hers"
"Pooh." says the handsome Italian
back of her, who had come as listen
er-"poob! they don't neither"
The girl turns look of calm scorn
upon him. II seen the cows, and you
don't" she responds; and the boy
feels the force of the argument from
experience and retires.
They talk breathlessly and with
eager enthusiasm, Not only those who
aie just home, with their experiences
fresh upon them, but those who have
to 90 back a year or two for what they
tell. 1t is wonderful how sharpIy.and
clearly the details are preserved.
"Wot de country is like is dis" says
a small red-haired Irish boy, spread
ing his arms wide while the look of
one who wishes to give an accurate
and careful impression comes into his
sun-burned, freckled face; "dere's de

MORE DEMOCRACY IN THE SOUTHERN
ALLIANCE.

Topeka Capital.
The speech of Col. Livingstone at
Atlanta last week is rapturously en-
dorsed and applauded by the South
eyn Alliance Farmer, official organ OF
the Georgia Alliance. The Farmer
only mourns because every Alliance
man in Georgia could not be present
to hear his presidents magnificent
Grafton. HE won" exclaims the
Farmer, "the grandest victory of his
life, and when he concluded his ad-
dress, took his seat amidst the tumul-
tuous applause of his friends; and even
the men who came to this meeting to
brow-beat and humiliate him felt that
they had met their master in elo-
quence, their superior in logic and ar
gument. and man who had wrung
from their unwilling breasts both re-
spect and admiration"
"Our president" it continues, lis
man of few words" This should be
modified slightly, the farmers mean-
ing being that Col. Livingston doesn't
talk much, for a calamity orator. His
last speech occupied nine columns in
the Atlanta Constitution, which for
calamity orator is positively laconic.
Another speech made on the same
evening, which wins unstinted praise
from the Farmer was by Clark Howell
editor of the Atlanta Constitution. We
quote few representative paragraphs
from the Farmers report:
Ihave listened attentively and with
great pleasure to all of the addresses
made tonight. All that have beer
said in glorification and in praise ol
the party of the people meets with my
hearty appreciation. Every picture
that has been drawn, showing the
fealty which should be held by every
Southern man to the Democratic par.
ty, has my endorsement. Every ar
gument which has been made, tend.
ing to the esta blishment of the fact
that the unity of the white vote of the
South has been its salvation, and thai
only through the Democratic party
call tuls NOUc uHilc, OuCtpS my hOoi "
ratification.
But there have been speeches made
the tenor of which am frank to say
do not approve, and may be ex'
cused for a reference to the remarks o.
my friends, Mr. Smith and Mr.. Alex
ander.
1 was glad to hear from Mr.. Living
ston, the president of the Farmers
Alliance, that all the charges tha'
have been made against the Alliance
being untrue to the Democrat faitt
are unfounded, and to hear from hi:
own lips that he stands upon the Dem
ocratic platform and pledges the AL
lance to support the nominee of thai
party. [Applausel.
The long and short of it all is tha
Livingstone is in the Alliance as {
Democrat to injure the Republican
party, acknowledging that he will re
main a Democrat whether the party
e puts the 0cala demands in its nationa
platform or not; that Clark Howell
and the Constitution coddle the ALI
ance for the injury it is doing to tn
Republican party up here, and that tn
Southern Alliance Farmer endorse
both these slick gentlemen and is a
loyal a Democrat as either of them.
