Tom Paine a Unitarian Pioneer.

A book that will make controversial
stir is the exhaustive life of Thomas Paine,
half completed, by Moncure d. Conway.
The book will present Paine in light
differing in many important respects from
that in which the author of THE Age of
Reason" has been viewed hitherto. Mr..
Conway has not only made long and
careful study of Paine's published writ
ings and of the biographical material
already in print, but has sought, by per-
sonal search in England and in this
country, TO command material essential 10
q full and satisfactory account of the mans
personality. In this search Mr.. Conway
has made significant discoveries which
will give to his book a peculiar interest.
As far back as 1859 Mr.. Conway, then q
busy clergyman at Cincinnati. offered
q defense of Paine's character and
theories The address made a sensa-
ton, for Mr.. Conway's comments
were taken as the first effort ever made by
a Christian preacher to check the sweep
ing denunciations of Paine. To-day"
says Mr.. Conway. sit is difficult for US to
realize the attitude of those who criticized
the Age of Reason thirty years ago.

playing upon the muscular and nervous
systems.
1t was put in evidence that Brother
Blatchford had played the melodeon so
much in his earlier years, and had operated
the foot-pedals of his great organ so much
of later years that he now found it impos-
sibie to keep his legs in repose. his feet
having become so accustomed to motion
that they now continually and involun-
tarily kept treading away, even when
Brother Blatchford was elsewise in state

1t was said that it was possible TO dis

the girls living in Lynn having been
brought up in shoe factories where they
operated sewing machines, becoming duly
afflicted with an involuntary motion OF
their legs and feet, so that even though
they would fam appear in repose, they
could never possibly refrain from that
movement of their neither limbs which
gave 10 them an appearance of walking,
even though they were sitting down.

of her wearing apparel was then made the

An Innocent Man Hanged.

OMAHA, Aug. ga special from Beatrice,
Neb., says: More than fifteen years ago
Jack Marion and Cameron set out together
in wagon on trip and were last seen at
Blue river near here. A few days later
what was supposed to be the body of Cam
eron was found In Blue river, and when
discovered Marion had been seen with
Cameron's team and goods in his possess
sion. He was suspected of numbering his
companion. He was apprehended ten years
afterward, tried several times and finally
executed in March, 1887. William Wymore
uncle of Marion, has always believed the
latter innocent, and finally proved it by
finding Cameron alive in Lacrosse, Kan.
The latter had gone Immediately to Mex
leo and thence to Alaska after leaving
Marion on the banks of the Blue river,
and had returned from Alaska only year
ago. Hearing of Marion's execution then
for the first time, and fearing himself
amenable to law he concealed his identity.
but remorse caused him to reveal it. He
is fully identified.

Newspapers and Fire.

A few years ago the Office boy of the
Springfield Union dashed into Editor Ship
ley's room on the top floor in high excite
ment.
There's man down stairs who must
see you, quick" he gasped. Its very
important. Come" and he darted down
again, closely followed by the editor, who
was the last man to leave the building
alive. Plenty of corpses were carried out
when the fire was over. 1t had been sud-
den, swift and remorseless.
The danger of fire in newspaper offices is
probably greater than in any other kind of
establishment short of a powder mill or a
coffin gin. The paper, oils, inks and other
materials are very intiammable and it is
absolutely impossible to keep people from
smoking. In fact, nobody tries to do that,
though some business managers draw the
line at cigarettes, as for example the New
York Recorder, which was curiously enough
founded by a cigarette manufacturers
money.
Fire patrols, which are made every night,
and more than once night, by an expert
enced man are another precaution against
danger. In the old New York World build
ing there were five patrols every night, and
beside glittering ak upon the wall con-
spicuously hung the sign:

The Influence of Browning, and
The Early Writings of George Sand;
The Transcendental Movement; How

Do Browning's tangled poems tell
The way to mend q stocking well3
While l was wondering sadly there,
A sweet girl rose, and, declare
She talked about all homsly things
From washtubs down TO muffin rings!
She had ten pages all on pie;
She knew the choicest way TO fry
An oyster, and how best to bake
A good old-faShioned johnny cake.
Next day that girl was asked to share
The fortunes OF millionaire:
She now reads Brownings wondrous books,
And leaves the cooking 10 her cooks.
The girl who wrote on Browning's work
Is married to a gentle clerk
Whose incomes small. No girl have they;
She scrubs and cooks the livelong day,
And signs, while bending DER the range,
When she reflects upon the change,
The fall from school sublimities
To tattered books OF recipes.
