gress, and J. Haskins Hobson, state lecturer for
the Farmers Alliance, addressed a crowd COM
posed mostly Of negroes and small boys. Mr..
Goode was introduced 10 the audience by Mr..
Harris, OF Shenandoah, and only spoke for about
I'VE minutes, and his speech fell very fiat The
only applause no cot was from the half-dozen
friends who accompanied him 10 this city. Mr..
Hobson's speech fell about as fiat as that Of Col

conversation, after the fashion of a regular
correspondence. is. as between two individ-
uals mutually unknown. or as among
number, invariably a failure. However
recently persons may have parted company.
at meeting they commence de nOvO; new
talk grows out of the circumstances and
thoughts of the moment. which ends as
naturally as it began, when the takers get
tired or are obliged to stop.
To conversation carried on at distance
of space and time, through the pen. not the
lips, the SIMPLE and obvious principles upon
which people act in the drawing room or
the fireside circle are easily applied. Be
tween those who really wish to talk
together letters should fly as rapidly as the
post can deliver them. If only one feels
like writing, he should pour forth his heart
to his friend. although that friend remained
as silent as the grave. 1t would be absurd
to say that either party loves the letter. !"
as to charge him who had the penultimate
word in dialogue with the duty of making
the first remark the next time he encOunt
ers her who had the last word. When the
topic of immediate interest has been dis
posed of. correspondence is over. 1t
matters as little who contributed the larger
proportion to it. as who contributes the
most to dialogue. When the end is
reached. the story is done. 1t is for the
party who is first in the mood of writing.
after an interval of silence, to open new
correspondence in which there shall be no
reference to previous communications, and
which may die with the first or be pro-
tacted for week or month.
Thus we are brought to position not
very far from that taken by my eccentric
friend. General or regular correspondence
is useless. baneful. and in most cases i'm
possible; but special correspondence. born
of the necessities of man as a social being.
and circumscribed by them. may be from
time to time possible. There can be no
harm in an occasional exchange of bulletins
of health and happiness. like the ''gOOd
morning" and how dye do' of the street
and the parlOr. or in making new years
calls. as it were. annually upon ones dis
tant friends Some simple formula. which
might be printed for convenience sake.
would answer the purpose. and complete
the analogy with the practice of paying
three minute visits of ceremony or of leav-
ing card at the door.

Miss Linda Gilbert.

Miss Linda Gilbert. the woman who
wears the title of 1.-THE Convicts' Friend"
and whose unselfsh efforts in behalf of the
criminal class have won for her the admra
tiOn and respect of every phianthropic
minded citizen in the country, unaideG and
alone has for years devoted herself and her
fortune to ameliOrating the condition of the
outlawed classes. Many criminal has she
brought back to his better self and restored
to the respectable society from which he
had fallen.
So we'll has she become known to these
outcast people. too. that her simple name is
power among them, and neither bolt nor
bar is so effectual protection to dwelling
as the mere fact that she is one OF its occu-
pants. They reverence her as they do
nothing else on earth or heaven. and it is
not strange that they do. for plungng down
into the depths. as she has to effect their
rescue from their evil ways. she has seemed
to them in her white robes of spotIess
wOmanhOod ray from the divine love.
She was born in New York city. of

by her parents to Chicago. where she was
given an excellent education in the convent
OF st. Mary's, and she was but seven years
old when on visit to the Jail of that city
her sympathies were first excited for the
unhappy tenauts af our large prisons. She
at once secured permission to take to them
books and little delicacies. and as she grew
older she continually. in unobtrusive ways,

Lovers. of all persons. it would seem.
might with least danger postpone answer
ing each others missives since their COM
mon topic of interest is always with them,
and the billet dOux, after having been car
ried in the bosom a week, is as fresh as
when taken from the postoffice. What need
for ''sweet sixteen" to consume the very
night of its reception in essaying reply,
which she might have written next week as
we'll, since next week they two will stand
in substantially the same relation to one
another as now? ''Sweet sixteen" smiles
at such cold blooded logic. ITO you

The mood in which Walters note put me

The Weight of a Dollar Bill.

In the treasury here. one day this week,
the question came up as to the weight of
dollar bill. Scales of perfect accuracy were
brought into requisition and the surprising
discovery was made that twenty seven one
dollar notes weighed exactly as much as a
twenty dollar gold piece. The latter just
balances five hundred and forty grains.
However, the bills weighed were perfectly
crisp and new. Trial made with sOied
notes such as come in every day for re.
demptiOn, showed that twenty seven of
them weighed considerably more than the
twenty dollar coin. Every paper dollar. on

THE WATCHES OF THE NIGHT.
JAMES w. RILEY.


o the waiting in the watches of the night!
In the darkness, desolation. and contrition and
alright;
The awful hush that holds us shut away from all
delight:
The ever weary fancy that forever weary goes
Recounting ever over every aching loss it
The ever weary eyelids gasping ever for re-
In the dreary weary watches of the night.
Dark-stifing dark-the watches of the night!
With tingling nerves at tension, how the black
ness flashes white
With spectral visitations smitten past the inner
sight
What shudderng sense of wrongs we've
wrought that may not be redressed-
OF tears we did not brush away-of lips we left
impressed.
And hands that we let fall. with all their 10y atty
unguessed!
All! the empty, empty watches of the night!
What solace in the watches of the night?
What frailest staff of hope to stay-what faintest
shaft of light?
DO we dream and dare believe it, that by never
weight or right
OF our own poor weak deservings. we shall win
the dawn at last
Our famished souls find freedom from this PEN
ance for the past,
In faith that leaps and lightens from the
gloom that fees aghast-
Shall we survive the watches of the night?
,One leads us through the watches of the night
BY the careless intercesson of our loved ones lost
to sight
He is with US through all trials; in His mercy and
His might;
With mothers there about Him, all our
sorrow disappears.
Master hears,
And His hand is laid upon us with the tender
In the waning of the watches of the night.
