a mother. Nothing more was seen Of
her until last Sunday, when che looked
AS if her confinement was over, and on
Friday last the family suddenly disap
peared. Early Saturday morning Dave
Busick and Wn. Campbell, two near
neighbOrs, became suspicious, and
searched the place, finding a well de-
veloped girl baby in an old well in 8
good state of preservation. with the
back of the skull mashed in and badly
bruised about the body. This created
sensa ton in the county, aud an In

WAYS OF WOMEN.

Some Thlngs About the Brighter Seq
That Men Do Not Understand.
A woman sees more things in heav-
an and earth than are dreamed OF In
mans philosophy.
She's as full of sweetness and chari-
ty as a man is full Of mule sense and
geOtism.
She eau manage a man by making
the vain hulk believe he manages her
She can tell you better how much
principle there is in a man to tho
square inch of his face than you could
discover by months dealing with him.
She will marry a man to reform"
him. and though clothed in rags de-
clare that she is happy with the brute
She can't throw stone because che
isn't built that way; but she can fire q
world of pathOs into an appeal for .
new dress that will burst the toughest
purse strings asunder.
She is usually more adept at making
matches than at striking them. and,
while she may not know how to sharp
en- a knife. she can in two minutes
hone up her tongue in a way that will
make it sharper than a twO-edged
sword.
She may not be able to jump four

She can quicken a mans mental
faculties by giving him pieces Of her

True, she spends much of her time
before the glass; but so does a man,
only his too often has bead on it.
According to some, she was called
woman because she brought woe to
man. This Interpretation, however,
is not only not scriptural, but is not
borne out by the facts.
She is also called a conundrum; but
We will never give her up-rever!
With all her faults We love her still

The Two Lovers.
SONG.


Love is often deaf to those
Who love her deeply;
Deaf and blind as death may b
To grief or gladness.
All, that love should hold q heart
At Lest but cheaply!
Such heart As none can lure
To cruel madness.
Love, alas! is born Of earth,
And drifts supinely.
Now she finds bitter joy
In vulgar measure.
Now she sings with open throat,
And sings divinely,
Passion-sweet in all her dream,
In all her pleasure.
Oh! when Love meets Love in guiss
Supremacy tender.
Just as crystal song meets song
In perfect blending,
Then she scars among the stars
To her surrender
There is neither pain for her
Nor ending.

Gov. Hnps Programme.

1t was thought few weeks ago that
Gov. Hill, OF New York, would be a .candi-
date for reelection. 1t was argued that if
he should be reelected, as, in all proba-
bility, he would be if candidate, he would
stand a Letter chance for getting the demo-
cratic nomination for President than if he
he should retire to private life or go to the
United States Senate.
He surprised great many people ia New
York on Tuesday by stating in his message
to the legislature that he would not be a
candidate for reelection. The question
which now presents itself is this: Will he
become a candidate for the United States
Senate, or will he retire to private life and
devote himself to the management of his
little presidential boom2
1t is not believed that he would like to go
to the Senate at present, for the reason that
the people seldom look to that body for
presidential timber. If he retires to private
life it is quite certain that he will not be as
popular in 1892 as he is at present 1t is
difficult to form any definite idea. therefore,
as to what his plans are That he has a
plan by which ne hopes to reach the presi-
dency there is no doubt
While Gov. Hill is an able man, and a
sound democrat, it will hardly be denied
that he is not as strong with the people as
his admirers tell him he is. Outside of the
state of New York he is scarcely known at
ali, and he cannot get the presidential nomi-
nation il he has only that state to depend
upon.
Some Of the New York newspapers are
doing all they can to increase his popular
ity. They are nos meeting with great
deal of success They would succeed better
if Mr.. Cleveland were out of the way.
Democrats all over the country, however,
are thinking only of Mr.. Cleveland for 1892
and it is not probable that they can be con-
WINGED that he is not the best man for the
next democratic standard bearer.
Gov. Hin is comparatively young mar
yet, and the time may come when his party
will regard with favor his presidential aspi
rations His chances for getting the nomi
nation in 1892, however, are not, from The
present outlook, worthy Of serious
thought.
