Remembrance wakes with all her busy train,
Swells my heart, and turns the past to pain"
The past is all around me. In the still night;
under the etars. when the moon is low and the
green hills lay dark against the horizon Alone
in the past, where Eolia sings a soft strain OF
melody to the dew-Iaden flowers. and the green
leaves whisper to each other. By the darkly
flowing river, where the white mists rise up
from its breast like angel specters. In some
still and quiet valley, where butterflies dance
In the SUD, and joyous birds sing to each other
in bird-love music, caught from the dead Pan.
The past Is with me; Eros is dead. but Memory
still lives. OF all that group of happy boys that
constituted our college class, and who for three
years had been a band of brother friends, where
are they now? One died In the flush Of his
young manhood, and fer years he has been
sleeping in the quiet church yard. One went

HEALTHY POLITICAL EXCITEMENT
There is good deal of healthy excitement
in the politics of the day.
The New Hampshire Republicans recent
ly filed the legislative chamber with pO-
lice and stole the State.
Connecticut has two Governors, but the
Republican fellow is on the inside of the
Executive Mansion, and the Democratic
fellow is trying to keep from catching cold
on the outside by the gymnastics of pro-
family.
Out 10 Nebraska Democrat was duly
elected Governor, but the Republican hangs
on and stations the militia in convenient
spots to keep the peace.

THE SHOE BEGINNING TO PINCH.-The
Pittsburg (Pa.) American Manufacturer, in
its issue of Saturday, attempted to explain
the causes which have compelled the shut
down of % blast furnaces in the Shenango
and Mahoniug Valleys OF Pennsylvania
and Ohio, throwing nearly ten Thousand
men out of work.
The journal says: 'The first reason Civ
en- by the furnace owners why they cannot
continue operations under present condi
tious is the large amount of Southern iron
now being shipped iuto that district. They
assert that since May 90, 1890, from 40, 900
to so, 900 tons of this iron has been receiv-
ed in the valley, ,displacing aneq1al amount
of local production. For months fair
quality of Southern iron was delivered at
the Youngstown mills for $l4. aud at this
price large sales we're made. LAST week
the prices quoted were $13.25 to $13,85 for
Alabama pig,
In this connection, we quote from the
New York Globe the following
ia production of pig.iIon the South
shows o remarkable increase of 395. 900
tons over 1889, of $3.50, 600 tons over 1883.
and of mora than 1000, 900 tons over 1887,
while she now boasts cotton crop which
averages an annual value of nearly $780,
coo, 600. Rich in all that is embraced in
the term natural advantages the South
can add to these q marvellous climate,
which enables her people to work all the
year ronnd in comfort and free from the
rigors of our Northern winters. While
the South has been lying fal:ow, recover
ing herself from the shock aud aftermath
of her trouble. the march of civilization
has been forcing her doors and revealing
her treasures, and she wakes from her long
sleep, like Rip Van Wi.kle, to find every
thing changed, but, unlike him, she awakes
to riches and gold and not to rags and
rust"

A MILLION GHosrLY RABBITS.
Hunters Who Say They Saw q Grave
yard Full Of spectral Animals.

Hunters Who Say They Saw q Grave
yard Full of spectral Animals.
From the ST. Louis Globe Democrat.
Two weliknown young men engaged in
business in Blountvilie, Ala, were badly
frightened few nights ago by graveyard
rabbit. They had been discussing the super
stition of carrying the left hind foot of a
graveyard rabbit for good luck, and both
agreed to give il trial if they could OBJ
tain a foot. They learned that plenty Of
rabbits could be found about the big ceme-
terry at Mount Hope church. four miles
north of town.
The following night they went to the
graveyard, each armed with O small shot
gun. Several times they crept cautiously
through the graveyard, and had almost
reached the conclusion that the rabbits
we're not at home that night, when they
caught sight Of one sitting on q grave. 1t
was bright moonlight night, and nothing
seemed easier than to hit that rabbit A
shot was fred, but the little animal did not
turn up his toes as the hunter expected.
Instead he only turned his face towards the
two men and seemed to look at them with
an expression of reproach. Another shot
was fred. and still the rabbit lived. Then
both men fired together, but without effect
They loaded and fred again, and then the
rabbit seemed to suddenly turn as white as
the moonlight around him.
By this time the two hunters were getting
little nervous, and remembered the stories
they often heard in their boyhood days of
witches in the form of white rabbits. But
they were after the left hind foot of grave
yard rabbit, and were not going to give up
this chance of securing one just yet. Again
the guns blazed, and this time the rabbit
began to jump about in circle and utter a
low whine In moment the two hunters
saw white rabbits in all directions. Every
grave in the cemetery seemed to be covered
with them, and they were all hopping
around in circles, uttering low. plaintive
cries. The two men leaped the fence, and
ran all the way home. They still insist
they saw millions of rabbits in the grave
yard that night, but the boys about town
say the tonic they drank to steady their
nerves was loaded.

HILL MEETS CLEVELAND.
They Exchange Bows at the Manhas
tan Cluh Dinnar

&ACL BOWS at the MA00aL-
tan Club Dinner.
NEW York, Jan. 31.-At a dinner given
tonight at the Manhattan Club by Sena-
tor W. L Brown to the governors Of the
club and few others, ex-President Grover
Cleveland and Gov. David B. Hill met each
other face TO face. The centennial
banquet at the Metropolitan opera
house, two years ago, was the last
occasion upon which they met. Since then
they have been as strangers, and many
things written and said Of the two men only
tended to widen the breach To this con-
dition OF affairs was due the great interest
taken in their meeting at the dinner to-
night, although the affair was strictly q
private one. Ex-President Cleve-
land arrived at z o'clock and
moved about among the guests
shaking hands and conversing in a most
pleasant manner. At 7:45 O'Clock the ban
Queters, thirty-two in number, entered the
library room, where the table was set The
table was in the form Of an oval At the
head sat Senator Brown, with Lieut.. Gov.
Jones on his left and a seat for Gov.
Hill, who had not at that time arrived, on
his right At the opposite end Of the table
was Frederick r. Coudert. president of the
club. Ex-President Cleveland occupied
seat on bis right and Benjamin Wood on
his left.
GOV. HILLS ARRIVAL
AT 0 o'clock Gov. Hill was announced.
As he entered the room every one arose
and appIauded. The governor advanced
to his seat, bowed to Senator Brown, and
then, looking directly at -PresidenuCleve
land, smiled and bowed. Ex-President
Cleveland as pleasantly returned the
recognition. Gov. Hill then bowed to
the other gentlemen, and took his seat.

THE "FAKK srRIKERs

AT country fairs, in addition TO other skin
games, such as hazard, hierouymus. the
shell game and crooked dice snaps. the ia
vorite device for relieving the sapient stran-
ger OF his hard-earned coin is the fake
striking machine q cheat that catches all
the harder because it looks to be more OF a
square game than the others. This machine
stands on stout table, and players can
walk around it and satisfy themselves that
no one Is manipulating it On table near
II Is an upright case with glass doors. in
wnlch may be seen hung upon hooks
forty prizes, varying from glittering
brass breastpins and earrings TO
real silver and gold watches, each piece

mas the option of any number that suits
him, and he can strike on the cushion d as
vigorously or as gently as he
likes; to whatever number the index goes
and stays, the prize corresponding to that
number Is his lawful spoil, and there are no
blanks Here, then. is an opportunity to
grow rich beyond the dreams of avarice;
70 cents a strike, and at least six silver and
gold watches among the forty prizes.
Inc proprietor, however, is not running

manning numbers upon the worthless prizes.

near 1t, but useless.
When the deluded yet sauguine rustic re-
turns on the following day his heart leaps
for JOY upon discovering that the glittering
prizes that he vainly pounded for at the
rate OF a quarter pound have all, by some
strange circumstance, been hung on the pegs
that he was most successful in striking the
day before. Once more he rushes into the
breach, and while he labors with the mighty
sledge the fakir labors with his breeches
pocket. or at least its contents. After ex-
pending the little substance that he has left
he goes home watchless. moneyless, but not
wiser. The rakir on his return trip will
catch him harder than ever.
