At lrst she thought she was dreaming, and that
her mother had come to Paris to visit her. Then
she heard:
Most o'clock, Nathan"
She now wide awake. How cold the sheet
was as it touched her face Her breath had frozen
upon it. She shivered and thrust her head down
under the clothes. Marmaduke whined and now
pushed himself Yet nearer. The wind was still
rushing against the walls of the house from the
northeast. She could hear the indisinct sound
which the snow made as il came upon the windows
Rowena wondered how she used TO bear the
cold and the Inconvenience here; she was sure
She had thought nothing of them
Her mother came back with lamp in her
hand. She had thrust her feet into shoes and
lad put shawl over her shoulders. She began
TO dress, shivering as she did so.

She went to the stairs and called again. As

needed lot er sleep.
The two women did not linger over their
blessing. Rowena was younger and more agile.

Rowena replied in cheerful voice In her
heart she was asking herself how she was going

Of Ncw.England winter can be. On such days
the storm seems TO have a personal spite against
you. All your far-fetched, cheerful thoughts are

TOO unhappy She hurried about. She wished
there more TO do. She wished also that she

remembrance she could not help laughing a
little. Her laugh was broken up by her
chattcring teeth. She and Marmaduke were in
the back porch looking for Nathan's rubber boots
She was going 10 the barn To feed the horse and

Congress convened Monday, but
will not get to work before next
week. This promises to be one OF
the most important sessions ever
held. There ore two very important
questions it has to deal with, that Of
free silver, and flexible currency,
based on honest labor. These are
very important questions. The
times demand some such legislation.
The question is, whether the will of
the people will be discarded for the
favor (money) of Wall Street and
bleated capitalist. But by any means,
should the peoples wishes and pc
titions be treated, as they usually
have been, with silence, often con-
tempt; we predict very different
result. The farmers and laboring
classes of the United States have
been very forbearing and long .uf:
tering but times since then have
changed, and now it is that forbear.
ance ceases to be virtue, and if
this Congress, with the aid of sub.
sidiZed and muzzled press, and mon
ey of a corrupt class boldly disregard
their rights, we believe the people
will know why.

Half Dollar Made

You can mako a half a dollar
in less than a minute any time
between now and January 1st,
'92. First allow us to say that
we have often been asked by
our friends why we did not re-
duce the subscription price Of
TIE CAUCASIAN to $1.OO per year.
The answer is short and plain.
It is because two thousand sub
scribers at one dollar each a
year is only $4,000, and it costs
us more than that to publish the
paper. But we had rather send
out three thousand copies Of the
paper st S1.00 each than two
thousand copies at $1.50 each
Now we wish to reduce the sub
scription price to $1.O0 and only
regret that we are not able to
do so with only 1000 subscri-
bers. But we are going to try
and will do it if you will help
us. VIII you do it? During
the month Of December we offer
the paper at $1.00 to all new
subscribers. If by January 1st,
'92, we have reached 5000 sub
SCI ibers, we will put the price
permanently at S1.OO. if not we
will be forced to go back to the
old price. Now two Of our sub
scribers should be able to get Us
one new one, and if You will do
it, we will add a thousand new
subscribers. If you like THE
CAUCASIAN, think it a good papei
then say so, and get others te
think likewise and to read il
also. Now we are not going to
do better ny our new friends
than by our old ones. So every
old subscriber who pays up be
fore January 1st, we will let re-
new at 81 90 in advance for the
next year. Now friends, let u:
pull together and put The CAU
CAsIAN to 5000 and at S1.00 {
iyear.

"In spite Of great crops on the DO.
nanza farms of the West, gambling
In the bread of a starving world
still holds its carnival Of hell on the
floor of your exchanges. In spite of
good CROPS in Kansas, farms are be-
ing abandoned by the the thousand,
and the young blood Of every farm
ing community in America pours
its bright stream in greater volume
daily into the crowded cities. Cit
les are increasing more rapidly than
ever beforein the history of the
world. The life of the farmer is
more int olerable to the young man
than ever. The man who dwells in
the city has every advantage in the
battle of life, or al least the world
so believes. The farmer and his
fellow.labcrer is still at the mercy
Of railroad corporations and gamb-
lers. And they know it. And be-
cause they know it, this agitation
will never cease until the work is
done for which the movement was

The above is very sad portrayal

WHO KELLRD SEN.STEPHENs
4 Bit OF Interesting History.

Last week the State Chronicle
published 2 statement that DR.. Ee-
lix Roam, of Caswell county, had
made q death-bed confession to the
effect that himself, DR.. Stephen
Richmond and Sheriff Wiley were
the men who murdered John w.
Stephens. the Republican Senator
from that county, on May 2lst 1870.
This was a very sensational murder
and had powerful bearing on the
political campaigh OF the State that
year.
The Chronicle gives these facts on
en- the authority Of the editor Of the
Hillsforo Observer:
sNow Mr.. J. r. Webster, editor
of Nebster's Weekly, telegraphs the
Chronicle that Mr.. Robert Roam de-
noun ces the alleged confession as an
Unqualified falSehood, and further
says that his brother, DR.. Roam,
could not have been one of the mur-
derars, as he was not in 1anceyviile
nor anywhere near it on the day the
murGer was committed. Our i'm
preston is that DR. Rean, to whom
the alledged confession is attributed,
moved to Winston amt died there
several years ago. Neither ne nor
DR.. Richmond nor Sheriff Wiley,
all of whom were dead, are the kind
of men Rbe would have enticed
John ". Stephens into room ia
the court house to strangls him I'd
death.n
The editor of the Obrerver now
says.he will prove his statement.
