pened to be standing at the depot here to
day when l heard a conversation between
a ranchman and a trainman. The ranch
man asked who was likely to be nominated
for president on the Democratic ticket.
The trainman replied he thought either
Cleveland or Hill. "Hill,' says the
ranchman, and who in the - is Hlll2"
Now it is my firm belief that there are
thousands of good sound Democrats In
the South, West and North that never
heard of Hill and other thousands that
only know HIM as a sharp New York
politician. | don't know hat am a

A VOICE FROM THE PAST.
The Ex-Empress Eugene Is Prac

Almost like articulate speech from
the shadowy lips of a ghost co mes an
occasional newspaper paragraph con-
corning the ex-empress OF the French,
Eugene says the Detroit Free Press.
1t now appears that the woman who
once blaZed in the worlds eyes: who
was the arbiter of women everywhere,
and who could by a wave of her hand
revClutionize in the twinkling Of an eye

spend few months at Cairo" Twenty
three years ago she was in that same
city celebrating the opening of the
Suez canal. Those were the days of
her greatest splendor. The world was
at her feet. The khedive caused car
riage road to be constructed across the
desert all the way from Cairo to the
pyramids in order that the empress
might have no difficulty in reaching
those awe-inspiring mementos of lost
civilization. 1t seems very like Unsel
now to recall the fact that the khedive,
hearing of her imperial majesty's wish
to witness native Egyptian marriage.
one morning summoned one of his most
imposing chamberlains and ordered him
to marry at once one of the khedive'S
odalisques. 1t is said that this COM
PLEASANT chamberlain is now the COVER

THE DIAMOND SPECIAL.

The Illinois Centrars New Chica-
go-St. Louis Train-Its Elegant
Equipmen. a Glistening Display
of Fine Woods, Pushes and
Silks in Artistic Combination
and Design.
The Illinois Central is now running
daily night train between Chicago and
st. Louis, which. in point of elegance of
equipment, desirability OF route, time,
and efficient service, is the peer of any
existing train between those cities, and
is equafed by but few railway trains in
the country. The train Is known as
The Diamond Special;" is a vesti-
bnle train lighted by gas throughout.
and is equipped with Pullman
compartment buffet sleeping-car,
drawingroom sleeping-car, free reclin-
ing chair car, and compartment coach
and smoker. The elegant nature of this
entire equipment can be aptly com
pared to a noted authors summary of a
famous building. ut is characterized
delicate and graceful taste. and dis
position to INDECENT enjoyment" This
line Of thought is somewhat furthersd
by the names of the new compartment
sleepers; for although of foreign
derivation, certainly 'DelectO" and
"Felicito'' are sufficiently sug-
gestive to warrant the expec-
tation that they will be found 'highly
pleasing" and that they will delight"
Their exquisite beauty and harmony
would seem, however, to warrant the
expectation. They contain three state
rooms, drawing-rOOm. smoking
room, a buffet and eight sections in the
body OF so-called parlor of the car. Ma
hogany i'll three varieties, including the
delicate Prima Vera, or white mahog-
any, deep, rich vermilion wood from
Africa. quarterSawed oak and eXQuis-
ltely painted woods are used in the
structural finish and decoration of the
interior.
In artistic combination with these are
panels of embossed and decorated plush,
which, with the plain plnshes of the up
hOlstering. and the silken draperieS, are
in harmony in colOr-tone with the nat
ural and the painted woods. The color
ing of the different compartments is in
pleasing variety and of simply marvel
Gus beauty. For instance, Of the state
rooms, there is one in delicate pea-green,
stiDpled and emhellished with gold; an
other of that delicate shade throughout
known as canary, another, OF steel gray;

in deep red and gold; and last, but not
least, the warm effect of mahogany and
Spanish red coloring in the body of the
car.
The remaining equipment of "The
Diamond Special is in keeping with
the standard set by the compartment
sleepers. and in any part of the train one
could easily acquire "a disposition to in
dolent enjoyment" The train leaves

Mrs. William II. Vanderbilt and her
son Cornelius are both widely known as
wise and generous dispensers of char.
ity, says the Chicago Herald. They
have recently given to their parish, ST.
Bartholomew's. Ill New. York, the finest
and most perfectly equipped building
in the world for home missionary and
charitable work. The cost is $500, 900,
and it occupies a most useful
location upon Forty-second street
east of Third avenue. 1t is a
superb building of five stories with
mezzamines, which give space for gym
naSiumS and Industrial training schools.
The plan includes all the requirements
of a mission church, school, club house.
industrial class rooms and exhibition
halls, spacious restaurant, bath rooms,
gymnasiums and recreation rooms. The
property has been given entire to the
parish, who will maintain it to the eX-
tent that it is not self-supporting. 1t Is
a great gift to the Woodworking poor.

From that day to this no one has had

During the last few weeks the Paris

The most distinguished ghost of them
all, according to GaligT1ani's Messen-

the Castle OF Darmstadt. In deep
mourning she comes to annouce the
death of some member of the families
of the Grand Dukes of HeSse or of the

of this lady has from time immemorial
