Ar Homer, James Henderson, u stock
raiser and ranch owner, has just con-
tracted ono of the ghastliest marriages
on record. lie was q widower. his first
wife having been dead not more than
six months. Within three weeks after
her death he was paying court to pretty
Sallic Means. The courtship progressed
favorabIy, ending in the marriage
spoken OF. Henderson is a spiritualist
and believes in communications, spirit
rappings, etc. Ten days before the
second union had been completed he re-
ceived u spirit message. 1t told him
that the spirit of his first wife was in IA
pcrturbed state, his approaching union
being the cause Another communica-
ton told him that he was liable to be
haunted. To propitiatc the wounded
spirit Henderson and Miss Means were
ma ried at midnight ON the grave i'm
which his first wife was buried, clasp
ing hands across the grave. This,
Henderson claims, is u sure check upon
developing ghosts with a tendency to
walk ut hours when honest folks of
flesh and blood are asleep. Exposure
and fright at the strange ordeal she
was obliged to undergo have combined
to keep the strangely made bride in bed
since the ceremony.

Her Weak Point.

She was up in every science, and had
placed at grim defiance all the iu-
tellectual giants that had ever been
before.
She had gone through Vassar speed
ing, and no thoughts domestic
beeding, she had learned so much
by reading that she couldn't take
in more.
She had studied art and fiction, and
the subtle laws of friction, and
had polished up her diction till it
shvne with light intense.
She had pondered on divinity and
lectured on the Trinity, her talks
upon Intinity were said to be i'm
mense.
She had studied with devotion all the
currents Of the ocean. She would
talk with great emotion Oh the

cago Address,
The happy man is he who thinks his
wife the best woman on earth, the lit
tie vine covered cottage better than the
grandest palace, and his freckled boys
and girls greater than princes and prin-
cesses.
Oyerweening ambition has made
miserable the lives of great men who
would otherwise have been happy.
Some men have spent twenty misera-
bic years in seeking the Presidency and
passed away Grabbed and hard hearted.
They reached too far. I never was
President, but fancy I should be COM
Portable in that exalted Office. But
don't lie awake nights thinking of the
ingratitude Of my country. How sad
it is to think that such great men as
Clay and Webster stormed and swore
when the news came that they were
not in it.
The money devil is like great lion
across our national highway just at the
point where the road DIVORCES, one to
greatness and grandeur and the other
into the dark abyss of plutocracy. 1t
costs $l,0O0,0OO to put a Presidential
ticket in the field and 100000 for
man to get into the Presidential chair.
But We must turn away from the
darker prospect to that brighter page.
We can travel in salty il we do unto
others as they would have US do unto
them.

THE FACE ON THE DOLLAR.
Intended to Represent the Ideal American
Girl.

Anna Willess Williams:th original of
the face of the goddess on our silver dol
lar, was born in Philadelphia during the
Civil War, writes Alice Graham Nc
Collin in July Ladies' Journal. Her
mother was Of Southern birth, the
daughter of DR.. Arthur II. Willess,
wealthy slave owner Of Maryland who,
while his daughter was still unmarried,
suffered financial reverses. When
nineteen she married Henry Williams,
Of Philadelphia, and removed with
him to his native city. Mr.. Williams
soon became affluent, but through some
mismanagement he lost all his proper
ty, and his daughter, Anna, the young
est of nine children, was born under
most adverse circumstances. While
she was still but child her father died,
leaving his widow, although in delicate
health, with the strongest determina-
tor to care for and educate her children,
and it was entirely through the endeav-
ors Of her mother that Miss Williams
received her education.
Early in 1876 the Treasury Depart
nent secured the services of Mr.. George
Morgan, an expert designer and en-
graver, who had previously been con-
nected with the Royal Mint Of En-
gland. He was assigned to duty at the
Philadelphia Mint upoa the design for
the new silver dollar which was soon to
be issued. He gave bis attention first
to the reverse side, for which design
of the American eagle was afterward
selected, hoping that q suitable idea
would occur to him for the head of the
Goddess of Liberty, which, it seemed
proper, should be used as the principal
figure on the coin. After considerable
delay and frequent change of plan, 1t
was decided that, if possible, the head
should be representation of some liv-
ing American girl. In the pursuit of
his duties Mr.. Morgan had been thrown
into the society of Mr.. Thomas Eakins,
an artist of considerable reputation, and
the similarity Of their interests became
the foundation of warm friendship
between them. It was through Mr..
Eakins' influence that Miss Williams,
friend of his family, was induced to
pose for Mr.. Morgan for the designs f
the Goddess of Literary. The sittings
took place at the residence Of Mr.. Ea-
kins. on Mount Vernon Street, below
Eighteenth, in November, 1876. 1t was
some time before the cap, with its
sheath, was decided upon.

THE SECRET LETTER.
THE NATIONAL ECONOMIST, J
239 North Capitol Street,
WASHINGTON, D. c., June IS, 1892.
Dear Sir-The National Economist is
desirous Of doing the common people of
this country all the good that it can. 1t
depends on the judgment of the leaders
in each section to guide and assist it in
its efforts.
The National Republican Convention
is over and their platform Of principles
promulgated and nominations made.
The platform has thirty-eight distinct
propositions, a straddle on all measures
that are calculated to benefit the co1l-
mon people.
You can interpret the silver plank as
suits your own views, and it is written
SO on purpose to secure the support Of
those in favor and those opposed to sill
yer. It is a we'll settled fact that
that party will not give any financial
relief.
The National Democratic Convention
will be held on the 2lst of this month,
which will make the record complete.
If they declare for silver they will lose
the supporter the East and have no
money to make the canvass on.
It is claimed by the leaders that the
South and the West will support any
man nominated regardless of the plat
form, simply for the party's sake. Now
we believe there are thousands ofgood,
honest Democrats of the South and
West that do not consider the success
of the party paramount and will revolt
against Wall street Democracy if they
promulgate platform inimical to the
interest Of the common people. We,
therefore, want to show tt e readers Of
the Economist the true sentiments of
the people and will ask You to immedia-
tely wire to the Economist as soon as
the Democratic Convention is over, the
names Of all revolving against the meth
ods Of Democracy.
Have as many good Democrats in
your section to do so that you possibly
can get that we may show the exact
sentiments.
Get well known Democrats if posi-
bic, to wire US that the great common
people of your section will with one ac-
cord revolt against the bossism that
prevails at Chicago, both in the platform
and the nominee, and have it done on
the very day, not later than the day
after the convention adjourns.
We want to publish 500 such tele-
grams.
We write you because we know you
to be true to the principles of the Farm
ers' Alliance and do not consider party
supremacy in the present fight for a
change Of present conditions.
Please acknowledge receipt Of this
letter, advising US if you will take this
matter in hand and have as many as
you can to wire us revolving against
bossism both Democratic and Republi-
can.
Very respectfully,
NATIONAL ECONOMIST,
Per G.. w. Macune.

"And over the herds that fed in Sha-

over the herds that were in the val

The Adlai men Toned in the Chroni-
cles fourished about 1,0l+ years before
Christ. The meaning Of the name is
dihently stated by different writer's.
McClintock and Strong say that Adlai
means the just, trt SophyMoody, in her
