THE FACTS IN TWO CASES
THE MILLioNAiRE's WIFE AND THE
 FARMERS WIFE.

Marion Hariand Thinks They Are Too
 Ambitious, and Writes Strong Words
 Condemning Their Desire and That of
 Their Husbands to Re smart"
 Copyright by American Press Asseciationl
 They were as far apart in education and social station as if they had belonged to different races and had lived in differ ent hemispheres,
 They were as near akin in circum. stances and in suffering as if they had been twin sisters, and brought up under the same roof.
 The husband of one wrote "Honor. able before his name and reckoned his dollars by the million. He was, more. over, man of imposing department, bland in manner and ornate in language. As riches increased he set his heart upon them and upon the good things that riches buy. He had four children, and he erected ("built" was too small word) palatial house in fashionable street.
 Each child had h suite of three rooms. Each apartment was elaborately deco. rated and furnished. The drawing rooms were crowded witk bric-a-brac and monuments of upholsterly ingenuity. It was work of art and peril to dust them every day. He developed a taste for entertaining as time went on and honors thickened upon him, and he mistook, like most of his guild, ostentation for hospitality. Every dish at the banquets for which he became famous was show piece. He swelled with honest pride in the perusal of a popular personal para graph estimating the value of his silver and cut glass at $50,000.
 The superintendent, part owner, and the slave of all this magnifieence was his wife. She was her own housekeeper, and employed besides the coachman, whose business was in the stables and upon his box, three servants. There were twenty-five rooms in the palatial house, giving to each woman servant eight to be kept in the spick-and-span array de- manded by the masters position and taste AS a matter of course something was neglected in every department, the lH"tLuCb OA SO1A piCSSIN&bloh bclnS lu~ nate and cultivated in Abigail, Phyllis and Bridget. Even more as matter of course the nominal mistress supplement- ed the deficiencies of her aids.
 The house was as present and forceful a consciousness with her as his Dul. cinea with David Copperfeld at the period when "the sun shone Dora, and the birds sang Dora, and the south wind blew Dora, and the wild flowers in the hedges were all Doras to & bud" No snail ever carried her abode upon her back more constantly than our poor rich woman the satin lined, hot aired and plate widowed stone pile with her. The lines that criss-crossed her forehead, and channeled her cheeks, and ran down. ward from the corners of her mouth were hieroglyphics standing in the eyes of the initiated for the baleful legend

southern Women in Kew York.

Southern women snd girls seem to be taking the literary, journsiistic and business world of New York by storm. An energetic young lady, Virginia H. McRae, originally from Wilmington, N. C., has established The Monogram in New York. It is a handsome monthly magazine, and is to be the official organ of the photographic companies in the Union. Every other business interest has it's own trade journal, and there is no reason why Miss McRae's magazine should not be highly successful. It iB indorsed by Edison, who contributes to the first number. It was a plucky thing for young woman to Go all out of her own brave spirit--this starting maga. zine in the big city of New York--and all women everywhere will hope shs will make 1t shining success. She her. self IS its business manager.

 One day she gave over the futile at. tempt. Something crashed down Ipor and all around her, and everything OK. cept inconceivable misery of soul was $ blank.
 Expensive doctors diagnosed her case Ss nervous prostration. When she vanished from the eyes of her public, and high salaried housekeeper, a butler, nursery governess and an extra Abigail took her place and did half her work, in the satin lined shell out of which she had crept, maimed and well nigh murdered, it was announced that she was under tine care of a specialis. at retreat"

Pasco Boomer Muncy Missing.

SPOKANE chronicle.
The friends of Colonel I. n. Muncy, real 60.
tate dealer Of Pascoswash., and formerly editor
OF the Pasco Headlight q newspaper of the same
place, would like very much to see him upon
business of particular Importance. Some time
about the first of July Colonel Muncy left TO at
tend the press convention, which convened at
Minneapolis, with the assurance TO his friends
that he would return in about fifteen days
But they have never seen or heard of him since
and Mrs. Jones, the proprietor of the Pasco
Headlight, has transferred to her son the edi-
torial quill of its absent editor. Mr.. Harvey.
the proprietor of the Bellevue hotel, says that
be bought from Colonel Muncy nine lots in
Pasco, which are paid for, but he has never re-
ceiyed any deeds for the same. The property in
question belonged to Mrs. Jones, for whom
Colonel Muncy sold them, but Mr.. Harvey
looked TO the colonel for the deeds which he
never got. Mr.. Harvey has several letters In his
possession which came TO the hotel for Colonel
Muney some time ago and he has endeavored to
find out where the gentleman is SO that he
could send the letters TO him and at the same
time transact what other business he had with
him. All inquiries, however, have been IN
availing and the redoubtable colonel still pre-
serves his ineognito. Why he went away; why
he stays away, or why he even refuses to answer
letters may be matter of conjecture with some,
but Others realize il in the way OF the absence
of a little subsidy in the hands of the colonel
that by right should have been added to their
own little pile.

Of Republican principles and policy
rather than Democratic principles and
policy, what are theyf II they are so
large and patriotic IS to be national rather
than party figures then why are not they
honored by the Democracy as Washington
Is honored7
The truth Is that the Democracy do not
honor Lincoln any more in death than
they did in life. The Democratic saints
are Jefferson, Calhoun, Tilden and
Hendricks, and they have canonized
these political incendiaries. conspirators.
Confederates and copperheads because
they love them for the enemies they have
made among the patriotic masses of the
American people. The pictures of Jeffer-
son, Calhoun, Tilden and Hendricks
would hardly show well in the same
picture gallery with those Of Lincoln and
Grant The only explanation that would
justify the association Of the Democratic
saints in the same picture gallery with
Lincoln and Grant would be the explana-
ton of Judas presence in Da Vinci's
great painting of the Last Supper" viz:
that the historical unity of the picture
made the face of the traitor as indispens-
able as the face of the Savior. To full
picture gallery of the times of 1S61-65 the
faces of its Judases ara as necessary as the
faces Of the saviors of the nation, but in
gallery exclusively devoted to the exhi-
bition of Democratic political saints, there
is neither room nor good light for the
pictures Of either Lincoln or Grant.
The Democracy have use for Jefferson's
memory and principles" they have use
for the memory and principles of CAL
houn, whom President Cleveland de-
scribed in his published letter to the
Charleston Monument Association as "a
high example of patriotism; they have
use for the memory and principles of Til
den and Hendricks. but as yet they have
no admiration for the memory or use of
the patriotic principles of Lincoln and
Grant. It is too soon for the De-
mocracy to appropriate Lincoln as
they have Washington and describe him
as "the foremost exponent in his time Of
good sound Democratic doctrine:" for
Voorhees, is still large leader in the
party; Voorhees,, who called Union sold
iers "Lincoln's pups" "Abe Lincoln's
dogs" 1t is altogether too soon for the De-
mocracy to try and make their political
"Rogue's Gallery" look respectable by
plundering the Republican pantheon
of its leading heroes and martyrs;
so they win be obliged to
continue to conjure with the names of
Jefferson, Calhoun, Tilden and Hendricks,
who do stand for historic Democratic prin-
ciples and policies; and with the names of
Washington and Jackson, who do not
stand for historic Democratic principles
and policies, because Washington de-
nounced Jefferson, the founder of the
Democratic party as political incen-
diary, and Jackson collared Calhoun and
cowed him into surrender when, with JEFF
ferson's torch in his hand, he threatened
to fire the fabric of the Union.

ties are right in their determination that
no student, If they know it, shall graduate
at the expense of the government who has
not been educated to understand that no
person il gentleman who is ryrant and
. coward In his intercourse with his fell
lows. The cadet who rides rough-shod
over the sacred personal rights of q COM
rade younger and weaker than himself is
as mean and contemplate creature as
the armed ruffian of mining camp that
''gets the drop" on . decent, unarmed
citizen and compels him to drink with
him against his will
Without dwelling upon the Importance,
as matter Of sentiment, of education
that makes for manhood, it is safe to say
that the presence or absence of this sort Of
education in . boy has much to do with
his success or failure as a man. There is
nothing more charming than courage-the
courage of q man as separated from the
mere stupid, wanton, sullen feroclty OF
q bulldog; there is nothing more fascinat-
ing than man of fair mind and truthful
speech, man too brave patiently to en-
dure abuse or infiict outrage; too brave to
stoop and cut the throat of a fallen, help
less, but honorable foe; too brave to re-
fuse to fight until he had secured "the
drop" on an unarmed enemy.
