The longest fox-chase ON record
took place in the West Virginia
mountains three weeks ago. The fox
was jumped ct 9 a. m. Friday, and
killed Saturday, 80 miles from the
starting point, after a run Of twenty
three hours. The hunters dropped
out early in the race leaving the
hounds to finish it alone. Mountain
eers say that from the broken nature
OF the country the chase probably
covered $50 miles. Some Of the dogs
are missing, having probably drop
ped dead on that terrible run, and
the Others. after killing the fox, lay
down utterly exhausted. The death
was witnessed by some timbcrmen,
who heard the hounds in full cry at
8 o'clock Saturday morning, and in
a few minutes they were in sight, the
fox leading by few yards. He turn
cd toward the timbermen for protec-
tion, but within a stones throw Of
the camp, the foremost hound caught
him by the neck and in a minute he
was dead.

Gen. Albert Pike, The Arkansas
literateur, began The study Of San
skirt when upwards of sixty years
old, and became famous for his ac-
quirements in that dead tongue Of
the Orient. This is really encourag-
ing. English is not nearly SO difficult
as Sanskrit, and in view of General
Pixies success in that study, our
brethren of the Mississippi rural press
ought to pluck up heart and try to
get some knowledge of English. AT
any rate, it is worth while to try.

Senator Voorhees, lately said of MIR.
Cleveland: 'sThe soldiers are against
him ana will not vote for him. They
voted against him in 1883. Mr..
Cleveland made a great mistake in
his vetoes Of pensions, and only saved
the governmentabout s47, ,0O0." This
practical politician seems to think
that public mans course should be
guided entirely by the question OF
votes, regardless of any principles in
volyed. That Mr.. Cleveland was not
able to stem the tide of pension ex-
tIayaganoe is partly due to the fact
that congress had so many democrat
ic members like Mr.. Voorhees, who
were always cringing to the "soldier
vote" That vote is to be secured only
by outstripping the republicans in the
giving Of pensions ; and the sooner
the democrats recognize this and
cease to dream of support from the
soldiers, the better. 1t is not likely
that any of the existing pension laws
will ever be repealed, but the demo-
cratic party should take bold stand
against further extravaganza in this
direction.

A noteworthy feature in the late
municipal elections in Kansas was
the part taken by women. More
women voted than ever before, the
number who we're registered also
showing marked increase. In Kan
sas City, Kan, the negro women
turned out in full force, and voted
side by side with their white sisters.
At Topeka the black women voted
solidly for Quinton, republican, and
on observing this the whit, women
began voting for Cofran, tie de-
cratic candidate for mayor. Among
these disgusted bolters were the
wives of many leading republicans,
and in consequence of their detection
Cofran was elected.

According to official figures, there
arr now 352, 900 Italians in the Unit
ed States, and they are still coming
in growing multitudes. Last month
Italy sent to our shores more immi-
grants than any other country in Eu-
rope, her contribution being 1869,
and Germany ranking next with
70S1. What kind of product will
result from this heterogeneous mix
ture battles conjecture f; but already
the name Anglo-Saxon is utterly un-
meaning as applied to Americans, in
whose veins runs the blood Of every
race in Europe. Undesirable as much
of this immigration is, it is vain to
attempt to check the inpour. Where
we send back one criminal or pauper,
hundred slip in unchallenged, and
this colossal exodus from the old
world will continue to bear down the
feeble barriers erected by our laws.

My friend he was, my friend from all the rest
With chldIike faith ne oped 10 me his breast
No door was locked on altar, grave, or grief,
No weakness veiei, concealed no disbelief
The hope, the sorrow and the wrong we're bare,
And, ah, the shadow only showed the fair.
I gave him love for love, but deep within
magnided each frailfy into sin,
Each beIl-topped foible In the sunset 9lowed,
Observing wales where rivered virtue 1owed.
ReproOf became reprOach, TIL common grew
The capti,us word at every fault knew.
lie smiled upon the censorship and bore
With patient love the truth that wounded sore,
Until at length, 50 had my blindness grown,
He knew judged him by his faults alone.
Alone, Of all men, who knew him best,
Refused the gold to take the dr0ss for test
Cold strangers hon0red for the worth they saw,
His friend forgot the diamond In the flaw.
At last Il came 1.-The day he stood apart,
When from my eyes he proudly yelled bis heart /;
When carping judgment and uncertain word,
A stern resentment In his bosom stirred;
When In his face l read what had been,
And with his vision saw what had seen.
Too iate! too latel o ecu he IN have known,
When hisl loyeci that mine had perfect grown;
That when the veil was drawn abased, ,chastlsed,
The censor stood, the lost are truly priced.
Too late we learn-a man must hold his friend
Unjudged, accepted, trusted 70 the end.

The Texas legislature by large
majority voted down bill appropri-
ating 100000 for the Chicago expo
sition. That is right. Legislatures
are generally quite too free in spend
ing money on schemes like this, and
it is encouraging to see the Texas
law-makers set SO good an example.
If any of her people have anything
they want to show at Chicago, they
are at perfect liberty to do so, but
not at the states expense. We hope
the federal government also will re-
fuse TO give one dollar to the enter
prise. 1t is no part of Uncle Sans
functions to go into the show bust
ness, either at New Orleans, Chicago
or anywhere else.

There was snow in north Alabama,
and ice was observed in hundreds of
localities, extending as far south as
Mobile and north Florida Some
was seen at New Iberia, La, which

According TO a paragraph now go
ing the rounds Of the press, Claiborne
county decreased in population be-
tween 1880 and 1890. This is q
mistake. Claiborne gained instead
of losing, during the last decade, and
has to-day nearly 10000 inhabitants.
The trouble i, the census enumera-
tors did not find it out. So far as il
relates to our county, the late census
is humbug, a delusion and snare.

That Boy and I.


You see, there was boy at my
former boarding house, and he and
| declared war the first day we met.
He was an impudent, loud1nouth-
ed, slangy cub, with head of long,
bushy hair that my fingers were
always itching to get into. My
room was on the ground floor and
he used to make faces in at my win
dow. One day he thrust his head
i'm but / was ready, and as he OPEN
ed his mouth to yell something Of
fensive, chuckedit full of sawdust.
That night he hung a live cat by
the tail to my window shutter, and
the vixen nearly scratched my eyes
out before L could cut her down.
Ii was Miss Giddigirl's cat. too,
and she believed l hung it there
myself, and so did everybody else
Next day / manoeuvred the boy
in front Of my window, until, think
ing | wasn't looking, he slung a
buckshot at me, and | lodged and
let him break a looking glass. His
father thrashed him for it. and /
was so pleased that / paid for the
mirror myself. He found out that
it irritated me to madness to hear
or see him, so he took TO playing
under my window. | put an end
to that by emptyiug half-a-gallon
of shaving water on him. He flank
ed me by moving just around the
corner where / could hear him, but
couldn't reach him. When | sang
he initiated me. 1T read aloud he
drummcd ON the end of the house.
Once / dissembled and won his
confidence so far that he accepted
an invitation to go the creek with
me. When / got him there he re-
fused to 60 into the boat. He knew
| was going to drown him, though
he didn't say so. / knew it, too,
though | didn't so, either, aud i
came home heavy-hearted with dis
appointment. My sole desire was
to catch him in the dark and scalp
him, but he was wary and never
went into the dark alone.
i was beginning to despair and to
feel that my life was a failure, when
one evening l heard him passing
my window where l lay in ambush.
I peeped out and in the dim star
light discerned my enemy's figure
passing. / threw my body over
the window-sill, and, stretching my
arm, caught handful of that hated
hair. l had practiced that clutch
on pillows and holsters, night after
night, with vengeful industry. There
was no slip to it. My fingers closed
on the locks of my foe with the
grip of an octopus, and / gave a
twist that would have pulled up a
pine tree. The shrieks that split
the air of the silent night made my
heart stand still, and | shrank back
within my room. Scream after
scream, doors slamming, windows
crashing, told me the house was
alarmed and wild with excitement
/ must go out; it would not do To
remain concealed. l biushed the
clinging locks from my guilty fin
gers and went into the hall. "What
was the matter ?" Well might. /
ask, they said, sitting in my room,
poring over my book, while murder
was being done. A gigantic tramp,
they told me, hidden under the
trees, had caught my sister by the
hair and nearly broken her neck,
and then run away. l am going to
slay that boy with my naked hands
if | have to wait till the next war
to get chance at him. = Bardette.

Not long ago New York Sam re-
porter interviewed number OF
prominent ladies in Washington
about the matter Of chaperons fol
young ladies. Mrs. Vice-president
Norton said:
81 am most decidedlyin favor OF
chaperons. In my opinion a young
girl should never be permitted to at
tend a public place Of amusement OF
drive with a gentleman unless attend
ed by her mother or some reliable
married woman. A chaperon is me-
cessity for propriety's sake, if for
nothing else. consider that there
is entirely too much liberty allowed
to young people of the present day.
! am by no means prude, but | be-
lieye that every right-feeling girl
would prefer the safeguard Of a chap
eron in public.
Mrs. attorney general Miller said:
81 do not approve OF young ladies
appearing unattended in public plac-
es, especially in Washington, where
one is constantly liable to meet ad-
ventures"
Mrs. senator Stewart Of Nevada
said
"You know that by birth and ed
ucation / am southern woman. My
father held the strictest opinions in
reference to our bringing up, and
never allowed us to indulge in round
dances or to go out driving alone
with young men. OF late years pa
rental discipline has greatly relaxed,
and sometimes the liberty is sadly
abused. Chaperons should not only
be demanded for propriety's sake,
but out of preference"

Attended His Own Funeral.


Capt. Ben Wakefield of Biddeford, who
lost his life Monday, once attended his
own funeral, being one of the few men
who have had that privilege. He had
gone on fishing trip down on the Grand
Banks and had been away from home q
good while without his family hearing
from him. The same season,it had proved
very disastrous to a number of other fish
ermen who went out from thereabouts,
and the vessel Capt. Ben was in had her
share of hard luck, and the report reached
home that she, with her crew, was lost.
Time passed and Capt. Ben did not return,
until at last his family gave up all hope
that he had been saved and day was set
for the memorial services The services
were held in the church at Cape Porpoise,
the minister had offered PRAYER for the
absent fisherman, who was supposed to
have found his grave in the sea, and was
Just beginning his sermon when Capt.
Ben walked into the church.
