TRUE WISDOM.

VINO feareth God is truly wise
Though he nameless pass his earthly days
And no stored columns proudly rise
To q future age to tell his praise.
For the tickle world will soon forget
Her noblest and best when they cease to live.
Turning her eyes with tears still wet
To the ''rising sum- her smiles to give.
The marble tablet is left unread
Overgrown with grass and creeping moss,
Where the sleeper lies in his unknown bed
With only the winds to bewail her loss.
His place is filled on ife's onward stream
And loud-voiced praise that he loved and won
May trouble the calm OF his dull death dream
As it swells anew to some favored one.
But he who walks in the fear Of God 4
Has lived his hope beyond earthly strife.
His body may rest meath nameless sod 59#
But his name is inscribed in the book Of life.'

day to many families in this city, and
marked one Of the saddest accidents
ever chronicled in st. Paul's history.
A gang Of workmen had been at work at
the ruins OF the recent fire Of Ozmun,
Farwell g. Co., and Grigga, Cooper q
Co., the immense walls had been left
standing after the fire and were con-
sidered safe but a terrible wind was
blowing at the time and without a mo-
ments warning one of the walls fell and
half score of poor fellows were called
to meet their Maker. The list Of killed
are: Edmund Wilcox, John Adamski,
Charles KatriZki, John K0leski, Frank
Sewell. Allen Young, Frank Marks and
Peter Larson. Those injured are Frank
Teshler, Thos Eprter. Who cannot
live,-Frank st. Peter, John Maurer
Thos. Seemutter, Michael McNamars
and Stephen Rhode. The scene where
the accident occurred was simply terrible
and as the bodies of the victims were
taken out was enough to try the tension
of the strongest heart. A coroner s
Jury was lnpanelled and an investiga
ton will follow fixing the blame wher'
if ia due.

Mrs. MAY Clarey Of Saltwater, Mimi,
while passing behind freight car at
Rhodes Mills, a little station on the
Eastern, about TWENTY-FIVE miles from
here, was run over and very severely
hurt. Her foot was badly crushed and
1t is feared that her spine is severely IN
jured. 1t seems that she had just
stepped off the caboose of the local
freight on the east side OF the track.
Her two little children had peeceded
her to the west side of the track where
the lumber camps were situated. She
was about to follow when the train
backed down throwing her on the
tracks. Through the unexampled he
roism and cool bravery of MIR. Thomas
F. Mathews, and Mr.. Jonn Whalen
who were standing near, she was saved
from death. With no thought Of their
own safety they sprang IN front Of the
moving cars and dragged Mrs. Clarey
along the track just ahead Of the trucks
until at last the train stopped. The
rescue of this woman is one Of those
rare instances OF unselfsh forgetfulness
that eleYates materially our opinion of
the human race.
A reception on the evening of Thurs
day the 3rd was extended to the Rev.
Father Harmon, the new pastor of the
Sacred Heart congregation of this city,
The needing was held under the aus.
pices of the Ancient Order Of H1ber-
mans at the Sacred Heart school hall,
and the absence OF Mr.. w. D. DIVER
was presided over by Mr.. Thos. 3.
Lyons. who in a few we'll chosen words
stated the purpose of the meeting and
introduced Prof A. J. Hogan of the
Nelson Dewey school. Prof. Hogan
dwelt at length on the priest and his
mission, and in q very effective and elo-
quent manner depicted the many noble
characteristics Of our worthy pastor.
Father Harmon's response was we'll re-
ceived and his strain Of easy, elevated
humor was tracy of the soil'' from
which he sprang. Tue music was rem
dered by Miss Cross, Miss Brown and
Mr.. Delaney. A violin solo by Master
Wylie was greatly appreciated. There
is no doubt. judging from tie many ex.
pressions of approval, that Father Har-
mon will meet with all the necessary
help in assuming his new duties.

ever since woman talks TWICE as muck
as man. Such was Thoreau's mother
and he was the third child of her fam
iIy.
He entered Harvard in his fourteenth
year. He was a remarkable student
but not remarkable for any particular
branch, as he. invariably neglected the
class business. He obtained neither
honors nor prizes, but he was great and
omuiverous reader. He did not remain
very long there and his first endeavo1
for livelihood was schoolmasterinR
This he soon left, and, like many other
remarkable and successful men, took to
featuring. But soon came the happiest
part of his life. He went to live with
Emerson and each enjoyed the company
of the other. Writing to CARLYLE about
this time Emerson saws, ''We have a
noble and manly youth-a poet, with
u.s." Aud thus was laid the foundation
of lasting friendship-Emerson not
only seeing after him whenever after
ward he wanted assistance, but what
was, perhaps. more important paving
the way for (Thoreau's) entrance to
literature.
Thoreau was feeling but had no place
for any Of those modern sentimentaists.
He could see through them as Scr. oge
could see through Marley's Ghost. He
was simple in his tastes almost to ex-
cess. His first house cost him but
$2S. IL. He had no necessity for locking

there was nothing to steal. Homer once
disappeared, but then as he said, Homer

DISHONEST DOLLARS"

The Republicans OF Maryland held
their State Convention u few days
ago. In their platform they call
standard silver dollars dishonest
dollars" Tho Repu blican State Con
vention in kentucky did the same
thing. In both the States Of Mary
land and Kentucky tire Democrats
resolved for free coinage. In Ohio,
Michigan, Illinois, Iowa and Mime
Gotta they did the same thing. Not
one single Republican State Conven-
ton east OF Colorado has failed TO de-
Lounce free coinage. The farthest
any OF them has gone has been to in
dorse the present bullion purchase
commodity law. No Democratic Con-
vention anywhere has subscribed to
that monstrosity. Harrison, Blaine,
Sherman, Mckinley and all of the
leaders are standing solidly by the
financial policy OF the administru-
tion. And yet we arc told that there
ure no partisan politics in the silver
question: Why, party lines are as
we'll defined and as tightly drawn on
the silver question as they arc ON the
tariff. Practically, the whole DEM
orratic party il for the full restoration
OF silver, ard practically the whole
Republican party ia against it. II
this be not n partisan alignment we
would be glad il some acute Republi-
can gentleman would tell US what
constitutes living political issue.
One party is the friend Of silver, the
other is it's enemy. The Republicans
in Congress have never furnished
more than few scattering votes from
the West for silver. All of the honest
voting for silver in both Houses, from,
the passnge Of the Bland Act down to
date, has been done by the Democrats.
The man in Nevada or elsewhere who
votes the Republican ticket votes to
keep tho enemy of silver in power,
and therefore casts his vote against
silver and himsclf.-L Sentinel.

THE GILLIAN CONTEST.

Tho Government OF the United
States has very properly maintained
an impartial neutrality during the
contest IN Chill. But the sympathies
OF the American people have unques-
tionably leaned towards tho cause of
the Congressionalists, which ia now
triumphant.
And this for perfectly sound reasons.
Balrnaceda's attitude and methods
have from tho first been those Of the
Dictator. His triumph, had he won,
would have been tie triumph Of arbi-
trary rule over popular self.govern-
ment, the victory Of autocracy over
tree institutions.
1t may be true, rs the Balmacedists
have asserted, that their chief sought
to give wiser direction to Gillian
affairs thRn tho representatives Of the
people would have given, but the
American mind IL convinced that bad
government by the FREQ will OF the
governed is better than the best
government OF arbitrary force.
The cause of the insurgents hos
seemed to Americans the cause OF
free institutions; that OF Balmaceda
has presented itself as the revolt OF
an arrogant self-will against tho
sovereignty OF the people. The ton
dency OF the one has been towards
human liborty; that Of tho other
towards despotism.--[N. Y. World.

The new comedy of Ole Oleson opens
up a new line OF line of dialect character
on the American stage, and is attracting
crowds of people all over the country, who
want something new. The Minneapolis
Times says OF the play:
The audience which greeted Ole Oleson
at the Bijou last night was fully as large
as the evening previous. r. l.. Scott as
"Ole Oleson'' kept the large audience in
a constant state of hilarity by his clever
work! At the conclusion of the second
act he received a curtain call. The excel
lent work of pretty Marie Heath, the
