Calamity Rescued.

Five days ago pretty Kittie NJ Hall,
of Mayhews. aged eighteen, came to
Sacramento. At social party she met
Edward J.. Farmer, prepossessing
young man of twenty-one. The liking
was mutual. Miss Hall said she had
left home temporarily to avoid the i'm
portunities of an aged lover, who was
distasteful to her, though favored by
her parents because of his financial
ability.
''Fn help you out of your difficulty, p
said the gallant young man. ~
| "How?' she asked.
"I'll marry you myself, if you say the
word
She flushed shyly, asked for a minute
in which to reflect, gave him permission
to obtain license and became Mrs.
Farmer.
The ancient suitor arrived soon after
the ceremony was performed. He went
straight to the county clerks Office, and
when informed of what had happened
said, with some show of chagrin, ssThat
settles it" and walked out.

is clerk in dry goods store on a mod

Stricken with Blindness While Singing.
George Neely, Kensington boatman.
has been suddenly and mysteriously
stricken blind. His eyesight left him
Monday without warming and without
any painful confinement. He had begun
his usual work on a canal boat on the
Raritan canal, from New Brunswick.
He had walked a step or two on the boat,
singing merrily to himself, when sud
denly everything grew black. He could
not see objects half foot distant. His
vision had completely failed him.
Cropping about the deck he tried to
communicate his affiiction to the other
deck hands. When his true condition
was discovered he was tenderly taken
care of, and when the canal boat reached
this city he was conveyed to his home in
Kensington, and there attended to.
Still he grew no better 1t was then de-
cided that the best place for him was a
hospital.
His nephew accompanied him to the
Philadelphia hospital. On arriving there
he was examined and placed in the
nervous ward. where he is resting quiet
ly, with his vision only slightly i'm
proved.-Philadelphia Record.

Exporting Live Geese from Russla.

Live geese are exported from Russia
to Germany and Austria in very large
numbers. An export house of Warsaw
intends building special cars for the
transportation of geese directly to.their
places of destination, if the railroad
managers will grant them permission to
run the cars. The ministry on roads of
ntercommunication was notified of the
proposal of that firm, and its favorable
decision is expected. The cars are to be
constructed with appliances to change
from the broad gauge of the Russian
lines to the narrow gauge of the German
lines without loss of time.St. Peters

The unhappiness of many
people is probably due, in a
large measure, to broken prom
ises. To the conscience that is
not totally deadened, unfulfill-
ed'pledges are continually stand
ing before us pointing the fin
ger of scorn and condemnation
at us.
To be happy a man must be
at peace with himself, and
when he so far forgets the obli-
cations that rest upon him as to
deceive and wrong his brother
man by being untrue to the
most sacred promises, the
pangs of conscience haunt him
at monday and disturb his
nightly slumbers.
We would counsel every man
who desires to reach the sum-
NIT of manhood, to be sure that
he does nothing that disturbs
his individual harmony. He
must be true to himself, and
being true to himself he cannot
be false to others.

An early adjournment of Con-

there is some prospect that it
will be brought about in a few
weeks. The Democratic caucus
On Tuesday evening voted to
give the regular annual appIo-
priation bills the right of way
over everything else and 70
dispose Of them as rapidly as
possible. These bills are now
all in q condition TO secure ac-
tion without much delay, and
ii is believed that an end can be
made Of the session by August
1st at the latest. This is what
might be, and what the leading
Democrats hope will be, but It
is not certain that it is what
will be. There are some meas
ures of Importance whose ad-
vocates rebel against having
them sidetracked by this pro.
gramme. One Of these is the
anti-option or grain gambling
bill. Mr.. Hatch, its author.

ture, will make a hard fight 70
get this measure before the
House in regular order.

test.

A dispatch from Washington
last Wednesday says: President
Polk, Of the Alliance, has de
cided that if his paper, "The
Progressive Farmer Of North
Carolina, cannot serve. both the
Alliance and the Third party, it
will serve the Third party. This
paper is the official organ of the
North Carolina Alliance. Fer
some time it has contained too
much third party doctrine to
suit the non-partisan Alliance
men. Representative Alexan-
der, chairman of the State Al
lance executive committee, Of
ficially protested against the
papers course, whereupon Pre-
sident Polk resigned for "The
Proressiye Farmer" !" the offici-
al organship of the Alliance.
This makes Polk's paper a
straight advocate of the third
party and is a nice bid for the
third party presidential nomina-
tion. The chances are that he
will get the nomination and
that Weaver or some other.
westerner will get second place.

Gideon's Band IN North Carolina

Gideon's Band IN North Carolina
We have heard in our travels
q rumor which seems to be
pretty authentic regarding the
"Gideon's Band' secret politi-
cal order in this State which is
said to be in existence and to
be similar in it's organization to
that which has been proven to
exist in Georgia and which has
been exposed there. 1t is said
that there is a Grand Gideon
at the head of the order in the
State and that there is a Chief
Gideon for each of the nine
congressional districts. The
nine chiefs and the Grand
Gideon constitute the executive
committee and the order is
pledged to carry out it's its man
dates and to vote and work for
the men designated by it. There
are said to be sub. organizations

Railroads.

Railroads are potential fac
tors in building up a country.
But for railroads many parts
Of this country that are dotted
with beautiful and happy
homes and alive with the hum
of wealth-producing industry,
would be the abode of wild
beasts. We cannot estimate
the value of railroads with ac-
curacy. When we think OF
the mail facilities that existed
before this country was travers-
ed by railroad lines and attempt
to compare them with our pres
senu mail facilities it seems that
an incomprehensible giant is
standing beside a pigmy, so in
significant that a magnifying
glass is necessary to see its pro-
portions. The same is true of
numerous other changes that
have occurred since the cotruc-
tion Of railroads.
We cannot afford to oppose
railroads or do anything that
will cripple them in their bene.
fetal works Of progress, devel-
opment and bettering the condi-
tion of the country. Railroads
have hewed the way for civil
ization and christianity, link
ed nations in the bonds Of frater-
nal and commercial fellowship,
brought different sections of
the same country into intimate
relationship with each other,
built cities, developed mines,
facilitated travel, enlarged
trade, brought about the culti-
vation Of fertile prairies and
forests, and in hundreds of ways
contributed to the wealth, pres
perity and welfare of mankind
They are chartered by law, and
If they do not come up to the
requirements of their charters,
they should, like individuals
who violate law, be held amen
able to the law. To properly
charter railroads and see that
their charters are not violated,
seems to us to be the whole duty
of our legislators in relation to
the management of railroads.

THE Michigan law makers
appear to be eminently practi-
cal in their work. The last
Legislature framed an electoral
law, which the Republican
party is now ends .voring to
upset, by which Presidential
electors will be chos i by Con
gressional districts, and while
others have been ta-. ing and
writing about the necessity for
better roads, they have enacted
a law which, il Is generally
conceded, will have the desired
effect. The provision that the
users Of the wide wagon wheel
ties shall have a rebate of one
half of their road tar, is an in
genious inducement which
works great advantage to the
taxpayer, to the roads, and, by
consequence, to the general
public. According to a writer
in Good Roads, 'sit is estimated
that with broad ties on wagons,
carriages and bugg;es all public
highways can be kspt in very
much better cond. tion than ii
now possible, at ene-fourth the
cost of the present system. In
the matter Of road reform the
first essential seems to be the
widening Of the tires Of the We
hicles. The general adoption
of this would be q long step of
itself in the direction Of perfect
roads. Without it perfect roads
