Mothers Patience.

Was there ever anything 80 exhaust
less as mothers patience? The pretty
baby cries and squirns about just when
everything is being done for it's comfort,
yet she does not, as an outsider feels like
doing, give it an emphatic little shake or
a pat that might be called a slap if be-
slowed by another. No, she bears with it,
sings to it, murmurs sweet words into the
unheeding ears and would think anyone
utter'y ridiculous who saw anything re-
markable in her increasing goodness II
must be a pat of motherhood, for it
comes TO the very youEg parent as well
as TO the woman who has raised many
children before the last vexatious atom
appeared.
The society girl who looked positively
aghast when baby was brought in for
her inspection and would leave car if
any small creature commenced to cry,
takes her own baby as though brought
up to the situation from childhood. She
does not get excited or ill-teml l.ered when
he wriggles aud squirms, cries or kicks.
She has learned the jargon of the nursery
and whispers and sings to the fearful
baby until the cries cease ana the little ir-
responsible bit Of lOyeliness decides that
he was sleepy and cuddles down content
edly in its nothers's arms that bad been
waiting patiently for this result all along.
She will rise ten times in night without
one murmur, even when eyes are heavy
with sleep and weary limbs would 50
much enjoy repose. 1t is to be regretted
that fathers as rule do not possess an un-
limited supply Of patience, and growl fire.
quently at the demands Of the latest arri-
val in the family-fatherhood is not
motherhood by a great deal. With the
latter comes that great well spring of
love in which abides an enduring patience
that to an outsider seems positively an
gelic.

Pearls Of Thought.

Folly's pains are VISIONS gains.
Money is rarely substitute for mind,
What is useful IS intrinsically orna-
mental.
Love hath no dearer privilege than his
service.
An indulgent eonfessor makes a poor
reformer.
She that wasteth crumbs throweth
away pleasures.
An idea IS more prolific than grain
of mustard seed.
The true philanthropist belongs to the
largest brotherhood.
The value ofan article varies accord
ing to stress of need.
We make our to-days Of yesterdays
our to-moTrows of to-days.
When a mans word is not as good as
his bond, keep watch on his bond.
When marriage IS anything but an
equal partnership it is a mistake.
Some men convert the "brass" in their
systems to gold in their pockets
To please people with whom you talk,
always know little less than they do.
A suspicious circumstance connected
with pride is that it is aptsO often to be
misplaced.
There are few people who do not at
some time shy when they run suddenly
upon the truth.
Discussion hath its purpose-that of
convincing each man Of the correctness
of his own views.
In maturity reason sometimes builds s
palace out Of the ruins which the pas
sions Of youth have left.
The best maxim for the guidance Of an
inquiring mind, is this; Try to see in
every error the deeper truth which alone
can explain it.
An old man once said of young man
who had recently become his friend: Il
love him for his spirit Of joy" The
spirit Of joy is a disposition TO easy de-
light in simple things.
Sometimes we see a maiden in the
transition period between girlhood and
womanhood, so innocent, 50 lovely, 50
unconsciously graceful, that we know
not whether to deem her sOEl the trans
parent robe Of her body or her body the
dissolving dress of her soul.

Philosophical cogitations.

So many silly sheep 60 to wolves for

The man who amounts to the most
took the least time to hope.
Every mans definition Of happiness is

No one will take advice, but every one
who makes mistake complains because
none was given him.
Hindsight is like looking through q
microscope at something We looked at
thr ough telescope before it happened
Every man who takes part in your pro-
cession expects in return that you will
some day blow horn in the band in his
procession.
People are too much inclined to wait
until something pleases them before they

of Egypt. The cat was very important

POLITICS IN KANSAS.
Election of president MAY De
VOlye on the House

TOPEKA, Kansas, July 1.-The result
OF the democratic county conventions
held throughout the state to select dele
gates to the democratic state convention
which meets here Wednesday, shows
that there is ia great diversity of opinion.
There are three classes: One favurs en-
dorsement of the entire peoples party
ticket another tavors the nomination
OF straight democrats only, and third
advocates the nomination of such of the
peoples party candidates as are ac-
ceptablc to the democrats. On one point,
however, the democrats are pretty well
agreed and that is that the peoples
party electoral ticket should receive the
united support of the democratic party
so that Kansas may be taken out of the
republican column and the election of presi-
dent thrown into the house. More inter
est is attached to this convention than
to any other held by the democrats in
Kansas, for on its action will depend the
campaign in this state.
DEs MoINEs Ia, July 5-An effort is
being made to unite the democratic and
peoples party in this state. The scheme
is to give the peoples party the electoral
candidates and the democrats the state
ticket. BY combining it is urged the
republicans can be defeated which would
help to throw the election into the house
of representatives and thereby elect Cleve-
land,

A SIGHT!
5000 Sioux Indians Assemble to
Dedicate a Church..

CHEYENNE RIVER AGENCY, S. d., July
5.-Six thousand Sioux Indians are here
to take part in r congress of the Catho-
lies of their tribe. The congress was
called to afford them opportunity for a
conference in relation to their spiritual
and temporal affairs. The occasion
chosen was the celebration of the COM
pletion of fine new Catholic church
erected by Miss Frances Drexcl, of Phila-
delphia, and the dedication thereof at
this agency. The exercises were of a
purely religious nature. The dedication
ceremonies were conducted by Bishop
Mastcn and were of most impressive
character.
A great pole and brush pavilion has
been erected. This meeting will be fo.-
lowed by magnificent dog feast which
will surpass in splendor and voracity
any previous gastromic performance.
All the famous chiefs are here: Grass
and Gall, Little White Bull, Judge,
Swan, Hump, Chas. X, j. Campbell,
Cora Bell and the babies. The pow
WOW will continue today ald possibly
longer. The order is excellent. A two
hundred Indian police and colored inlan-
try had nothing to do until last evening
when quantity of whskcy having been
smugglcd into camp. some OF the bucks

A Letter to TammanY on Fourth
of July Observance.


NEW YORK, July 1.-The one hundred
and sixteenth anniversary of American
independence was celebrated on an elab-
crate scale this morning by the Tam
many society or Columbian order in
their 14th street wigwam. Grand Sachem
Gilroy opened the proceedings with an
address of welcome, the Tammany Gee
Club their, sang Our Glorious Union
Forever" after which Commissioner
Chas. F. Wahle read the declaration of
independence. Secretary .Jno B. McGo-
licke next read answers to invitations to
be present. Among them was the fol-
lowing.
GRAY GABLES, BuzzARD BAY, Mass. |
July 20, 1892. !
Hon. Thomas F. Gilroy, Grand Sacliem:
DEAR SIR acknowledge with thanks
the courtesy of invitation to attend the
celebration of the one hundredth and
sixteenth anniversary American indie
pendence by the Tammany society on
the 4th of July.
1t will be impossible for me 10 take
part in the interesting exercises you
contemplate, hut hope the celebration
will be abundantly pleasant and profta
bic to those who are fortunately able to
participate.
believe that independence day should
be celebrated with zeal and enthusiasm
by old and young in every part of our
land and in every condition of American
life. No man or child within the limits
Of American citizenship should forget or
outgrow the sentiments related to tic
observance of the Fourth pfJuly, because
there are influences and tendencies
abroad which tend to neglect of this an
niversary.. The valuable and patriotic
efforts of Tammany society to rescue it
from indifference ought to be un,
iversally applauded. notice that my
lnvitationcontairs declai alton that the
coming celebration by the society "is
designed to be of exceptional significance
and extended effect" have no fear that
this design will miscarry. for am salts
fed that the Tammany society will not
lose the opportunity the occasion affords
to teach that the declaration o
independence was movement on tho
part of the people determined to govern
themselves, that the patriotism it i'll
spires enjoins unsel6sh care of our coun
try's welfare, that political endcavor i:
only safe and useful when undertaken il
the peoples interest, and that politica
organization is only effective and sue
cessful when approved and trusted b.
an intelligent popular judgment.
Yours very truly,
Grover Cleveland.
