COLD SELFISHNESS.

1t IS universally conceded that an
individual who does not look out OF
and beyond self, lives really in a
very limited sphere. And while this
is true, yet how many of us are
aware now completely we are under
the dominion of self? When We look
out upon the moving mass of human
ity stirring in the business world are
not the evidences coming to light
sufficient to warrant the verdict that
all are actuated to a greater or less
extent by cold selfshness
The idea, that, as human beings,
we should be aiders and helpers ol
each other, seem to be losing it's hold
upon the people. There is quite
manifest predisposition upon the
part of each and every one to scram-
BILE for self regardless of results to
others.
May it not be that this, of itself,
has somewhat to do with the de-
pressed condition of the people?
If there was a more universal in
clinatlon among the people to look
beyond the interest of self, and to
lend a helping hand to others strug-
Cling against adversely the troubles
and difficulties of many might be
much alleviated.

A MISER MILLIONAIRE DEAD.
He Was an Easy Victim of Confidence
Men During His Life.

By death at Albert Lea, Mum

teens, living on a farm in Duchess

miser, who died today at the Albert
Hotel, Albert Lea, at the age OF
seventy. five years.
Tanner owned thousands of acres
of land in three States, and had
nearly $4,000 on deposit at the
banks OF Austin and Albert Lea.
He had lived alone for years making
mortgage collections. Because of
his wealth and eccentricities he was

the past ten years this class of gen
try have secured nearly $4,000 of
the OLD mjser's money. He was
robbed of $4,000 all in one lump
by couple Of rascals from Chicago
in the winter of 1888.
They came up to Austin about
Christmas time and, learning that
Tanner was going into the country
TO a party, asked and obtained con-
sent to take him out in a sleigh.
Instead. however, of doing as they
agreed, they took him to country
saloon, and at revolver's point
made him sign four checks for SIS, 900
each. This done they drove him far
into the country and left him stand
ing in the snow. Then driving to
the nearest station they took train
back to Austin, got their checks
cashed at the opening OF the bank,
disappeared, and no trace OF them
has ever been found.

police, was discovered a few DAYS
ago at South Cove, Mass, house.
The police felt certain that the &C.

liquor illegally, and they searched
the place repeatedly, but failed to
find any substantial Sign of guilt.
At last one man, while making a
search at this house, happened to
open the door to an innocent look

revealed to his sight He turned
the handle of the faucet, and beer
flowed from it freely. Tearing the

which led to cutely covered hole

counts as to how the man got into

is that he was banished for having

tentative OF being scorched in the

Jack and Jill, who were kidnapped

stand with bucket or pole across

MATRIMoNY cannot change human
character, and when two persons Of
essentially antagonistic natures are
unfortunately united in it's bonds, it
is only by the exercise of mutual
forbearance that they can hope to
live together in peace and amity.
Intellect, therefore, should never
mate with imbecility nor principle
with immortality, nor purity with
grossness. No good ever came of
such unions, yet they take place
every day. Passion blinds the judg-
ment in these cases, and when the
love-lamp goes out and the ordinary
daylight looks in, one OF the parties
at least is sure to stand aghast OF the

O! little did my mither think
The day she Graded me,

Or the death | was to die!

The trial of Hester Clarke commenc-
ed on Thursday, November the Twelfth,
and terminated on the following Satur-
day evening.
BY nine o'clock in the morning the
best seats in court were occupied by
ladies, and on the bench were the Duke
OF MarmitOn and other county mag
mates, while Immediately afterward
those who could not be accommodated
with seats on the bench, disposed them
selves In the body Of the court.
Inc counsel for the prosecution were
Mr.. Montague, Mr.. Chambers, and Mr..
Sharp; and for the prisoner, Mr.. Valen-
tine and Mr.. Flower.
The attorney for the prosecution was
MIR. Noble, and for the prisoner Mr..
Day.
At half past nine o'clock, a model of
the house in which the murder had
been committed was brought in and
placed upon the table in the center of
the court.
At ten o'clock the prisoner, Hester
Clarke, was placed in the dock, and the
clerk proceeded to read over the indict-
ment to the prisoner, after which the
jury were sworn, and the prisoner, in a
low voice, having pleaded not guilty, Mr..
Montague rose to address the jury for
the prosecution.
He commenced by calling upon them
to dismiss from their minds any i'm
pressions they might previously have
formed of the murder of the young, be-
loved, and beautiful lady who had fall

The Days Work.
Do thy days work, my dear,
Though fast and dark the clouds are driftin

Do thy days work, my dear,
Though fast and dark the clouds are drifting
near;
Though time has little left for hope and very
much for fear.
Do thy days work. though now
The hand must falter and the head must bow,
And far above the falling foot shows the bold
mountain brow.
Yet there is left US,
Who on the valleys verge stand trembling
thus,
A light that lies far in the west-soft faint
but luminous.
We can give kindly speech,
And ready, helping hands to all and each.
And patience to the young around by smiling
silence teach.
We can give gentle thought,
And charity, by life's long lesson taught
And wisdom from old faults lived down, by
toll and failure wrought.
We can give love, unmarried
By selfish snatch of happiness uniarred
BY the keen aims Of power or Joy that make
youth cold and hard
And If gay hearts reject
The gifts We hold-would fain fare on un-
checked
On the bright roads that scarcely yield all that
young eyes expect
Why, do the days work still,
The calm deep founts of love are slow to chill:
And heaven may yet the harvest yield the
work worn hands TO NIL

tie knew himself TO be murderer IN
intent, if not in deed, that the hOmi-
cidal impulse that had moved him in
the bayfield, had. on the occasion of Hes
ter7s threatening to harm Madcap,
hardened itself into a rooted determina-

wife should be allowed to suffer: and if
he had by hairs breadth escaped the
crime, he was at heart guilty as though
his hand had committed it. He clinch-

ana cursed it that when by striking it
might have saved Madcap'S life, it had
forborne to lift itself; and so he was
ruined and undone forever.
Hester should die; but that would not
bring Madcap back, and as the miser-
able man gaZed around the deserted
room, meeting atevery hand those mute
tokens Of her late presence that make
the pitiful language by which our dead

OF her, he stretched out his hands to the
empty air, and cursed his Maker that
he was not lying in her arms beneath
