After Martin had decided to go t.
see Red Cloud his heart seemed light

very restful to see her once more!
He started on his journey. The full
moon was rising as he neared the ole
tree where Red Cloud had found him
AS he approached he was startled by
a white figure. He turned aside fol
a moment, and then went cautiously
up to the great trunk. Two dark
eyes full of tears gazed up into his, at
first with a startled look and then
with a gleam of Joy and trust.
"Mimosa." he exclaimed, and clasp
ed the Indian girl in his arms.
"Why are you here child, at this
time of night?"
Il came here to think of you, Mar

After a quiet wedding Mimosa said
one day. Come with me, Martin, and

Not very far from the tree where
the miner had laid down discouraged,
Mimosa pointed out the shining ore,
the spot known only to the few In

'Mimosa, there is a mine here
This gold is the outcropping of the

Would you surely love me as much,

With q happy heart Martin DAILY

Beecher's First Sermon.

During this time, | was with an
aunt in Northbridge, Mass, resting
after a long session of teaching, and
Mr.. Beecher came there during this
visit to teach for the first time during
a vacation, says Mrs. Beecber in the
first of her reminiscent papers in the
October Ladies' Home Journal. And
here, when he taught his first school,
he also preached his first sermon.
Evening service was being held in the
little school-house where he taught,
land the villagers had requested Mr..
Beecher to take charge of it for that
evening. At first he was surprised.
but he quickly collected himself and
consented to preach. How we'll / re-
member the look of surprise-almost
scOrn-On some faces, when he-this
lad of seventeen-rose to address
them. Soma thought it farce, un-
til he began to speak. Then atten-
tion came levelled at him, and for
nearly and hour scarcely one in that
audience moved in his seat. The SER
mon was an earnest one, simple yet
eloquent. Not once did he hesitate
for a single word. Sentence followed
sentence as smoothly as if they were
uttered by a minister of long expert
ence. Never did he in Plymouth pull
pit or on any other platform, hold
an audience more fully under his con.
troll, so thoroughly spell ll-bound-tha1
in this, his first effort.

Kind Words for secretary Proctor

1t is Secretary Proctor's good for
tune to have another important step
in advance in our military establish
ment taken during his administra-
ton. The new drill tactics, which
have been approved by Gen. Scho-
field, have been incubating during
two or three administrations the
board of officers to revise the Up
ton manual having been appointed
when Gen. Sheridan was in command
of the army. These new tactics for
handling troops in the field and the
modification in the manual of arms
are important and justified by the
new conditions of modern warfare,
as exemplified by the smokeless pow
der and magazine rifles of greatpene-
trating power, which will be n fea-
ture of the next war. if one should
come, in which the United States will
engage. The new code will soon find
it's way into the national guard

A CHILD'S LAUGHTER.

All the bells of heavne may ring,
All the birds of heaven may sing.
All the wells on earth may spring,
All the winds on earth may bring
All sweet sounds together:
Sweeter far than all things heard.
Hand of harper, tone of bird,
Sound of woods at sundawn stirred.
Yelling waters winsome word.
Wind in warm wan weather.
One thing yet there is that none
Hearing ere it's chimes be done
Knows not well the sweetest one
Heard of men beneath the sun.
Hoped in heaven hereafter:
Soft and strong and loud and light.
Very sound of very light
Heard from mornings rosiest height
When the soul of all delight
Fills a child's clear laughter.
Golden bells of welcome rolled
Never forth such notes, nor told
Hours so blithe in tones so bold
As the radiant mouth OF gold
Here that rings forth heaven.
If the golden crested wren
Were a nightingale-why. then
Something seen and heard of men
Might be half as swepk as islren
Laughs child of seven.

TO THE
FARMERS Of VERMONT.

1t has incidentally come to
my knowledge that you oc-
casionally make complaints
because of the small sums re-
ceived for your Dairy skins.
The fault is your own, for if
you would take them off and
properly care for them you
would rarely find skin that
would bring you less than SO
cents, and a great many OF
them would bring you 90,
10 and even 80 cents each.
Poor skins, like poor butter,
are poor property and bring a
poor price. 1t will cost you
only penny for postal card
on which to send me your ad
dress, to secure full printed
directions as to the proper
method of taking off and caring
for your calf skins. | will very
gladly mail these to you free
postpaid, if you will send me
your name and so request.
In most of the towns of Yer
mont / have buyers but ir
localities where | have none
would suggest that half doz-
en- farmers club together and
ship their skins in quantities ol
Is or more in which case

where / have none | will

attend to the matter of collect
ing skins taken off in hi

twenty-four hours. Governor Campbell
still holds the winning cards, and tho
opposition. now dcspairing OF being able
to carry out its plans for stampcding
the convention to morrow, is contcnting
itself with declaring that it will play its
trumps at the polls in November.
Although most of the delegates are
on the ground the anti Campbellitcs do
not seem to have gained any strength,
while quite number OF instructed del
egations who had been regarded as on
the fence, have declared in favor OF
the governors denomination. Governor
Campbell and Allen c. Thurman ar
rived at noon on special train from
Columbus. An immense crowd awaited
them at tho depot and hailed their APP
pcarancc with enthusiastic shouts and
then formed Il procession. and with music
escorted them 10 the State Headquarters
at the Hollendcn House.
Allen Il. Thurman told the company
assembled at his birthday banquet last
fall that he had babe farewell to poll

Great pressure has been brought to bear
upon the old Roman during the past
few days to induce him to come to
Cleveland and use his efforts toward
promoting harmony among the anti
Compcllites with whom he has consid-
cradle influence. He has, however, so
far resisted this pressure and it is given
out that under no circumstances will he
DEPART from his residence by becoming
even political rcmarker.

probably be re-nominated as Campbell's
runnlngmatc, although he is not max.

field frcctradcr came TO the city last
night. a secret conferences was held

was the anti-Campbell in sentiment and
that those present considered tho adj
visibility of entering IIarter as n dark
horse in the gubcrnatorial race. TWAS
thought that Harter might be able TO
draw away from Campbell's support.
The latest scheme on foot is to get as
many candidates as possible in the hope
of preventing Campbcll's nomination on
the first ballot. Another charge has
been mado in the programme for to-
morrow.
There will be two sessions and the
nominations will not be in order until
after noon. This may neccSsitate late
