The Last Of the Chartists.

From the Pail Nall Gazette.
No one will grudge the grant Of GOO from
the civil list to Mr.. Thomas Cooper, the veteran
ex-Chartist and poet Mr.. Cooper, who is among
the last, If not the last, Of the prominent Char
lists living, began life a shoemaker, and while
working at his trade taught himself the Latin,
Greek, Hebrew and French languages. At
twenty-three he became a schoolmaster, and
later drfted into journalism one of his first ap-
pointments being reportership on the Leices-
ter Chronicle. 1t was while at Leicester that he
became an ardent Chartist. and was sent to
prison for two years in connection with the
riots in the potteries. While in prison Mr..
Cooper wrote his epic poem. 1.-The Purgatory Of
Suicides" and a series of stories called ''Wise
Saws and Modern Instances" Some time after
his liberation from prison he turned secularist,
running penny weekly skeptical periodical
In "a few years, however, his opinions under
went a complete change, and he frequently
tackled representative secularists in public de-
bate. His brief deviation from the path Of
orthodoxy has always been matter OF regret
with him and he has written several books on
Christian. evidences on which subject he lee
tured all over the country for many years. His
autobiography, which appeared some twenty
years ago, is an exceedingly interesting book.

FROM the hailsas City Times.
Up Union avenue yesterday there trotted O
brindle bulldog Of large dimensions. He was
particularly feroeious of aspect, with a tail
that had been cut so short that it was mere
reminder of a tail, ears chopped close to his
head and the picturesque frescoing of scars
that freely adorned his massive frame bore
mute testimony to the many battles in which he
had taken leading part. He was evidently
looking for trouble-for . ''scrap''-and he
found it. Across the street. sneaking demurely
along. was small black dog of the cur species.
with decrepit tail, liberal crop Of .'whiskers''
and that air of careless abandon so often seen in
the tramp species of both the human and the
brute family. The bulldog spied him. ..Aha."
said he, there's an easy game. I'll just take q
fall out Of that fellow" And without more ado
Bully leaped across the street, fell on the other
dog like thousand of brick and, cheered on by
his master, he proceeded to do up that little dog
in just the way Mitchell says he'll do Sullivan.
And then that little dog with the whiskers and
the air of abandon woke up. He grabbed Bully
by the throat and downed him, bit a hunk out
Of his neck. and then large portion of Bully's
nose disappeared in the fracas. By that time
Bulys master mterfered and saved his pet
from total humiliation. The little dog still de-
mure, licked his chops, smiled broadly and
trotted on off up the street, while his opponent
was taken home for repairs. And the moral is
plain: Don't judge Of q book by its cover.

They Borrowed Beecher's Books.

Any one who knew Henry Ward Beecher at

libraries which he succeeded in gathering. He
was, however, most prodigal in lending his
books and forgetting the borrowers. Then
when he wanted certain book from his library
he would find it gone. He would. Of course,
have forgotten the borrower, but his method Of
tracing borrowed book was unique.

THE REFORMED SAVAGE.
Just What . Corker IL.

FROM tne Chlchfo DAILY News Record
The word ''corker" is q mach abused one fer
the reason that lite real meaning is unknown 10
the vast majority Of those who use the word. II
is derived from the French word ''corquer,"
and that comes from the Latin "corcsre"
which. in turn, WINS born of the Greek word
.korka," signifying Incompatible one"
Throughout the Homerian epics the goddess
whom we call Venus is referred 20 as Venus the
corker. and the epithet originally applied
seemed to imply not only natural and inherent
qualities, but also shining and distingui. he'd
accomplishments = personal and intellectual
beauty, attractions, charms. gifts and arss. Our
word, perverted by the ribsld usage Of the pro-
fanely needless. has come 10 imply a certain
disregard Of consequence, 90 that when one
speaks Of another as corker the multitude
gathers therefrom that he who il designated ~
q corker must necessarily be u sort of we'll
meaning, but needless pyrotechnist in speech
and action. The word Thoroughbred, cor
rupted and debauched by the brutal familiarity
OF idle tongues, has come 10 have . similAR
meaning.
