Our Rural Population.

According to the last census the population of the United States was, at tho time it was taken, 62,622,- 25o. A recent census bulletin gives the figures of the inhabitants of cities Taking the New York definition of a city as a place having 10000 or moro inhabitants, there are s54 cities in this country falling within such defini- tion, having a total population of IT, 450, ,17O. Then there are S,461 places in the United States with under 10, 1000 and over 1000 inhabitants, having a total population of s,65s,oO Thus 26, 1Oo. .o74 of our entire population are accounted for. This leaves s6,51S,1 ,176 as the num- Der of the truly rural inhabitants of the country, most of whom, doubtless, would be glad to have the comforts, conveniences and diversions of town life, but are happier and far more inde- pendent where they are.

ARE people in the city weaker in their organs of sight than the people dwelling elsewhere? A leading occulist declares they are. He has had enough opportu- mites to observe, and, besides, he offers such good reasons for his assertion that one is convinced of the truth of his de- ductions. Weak eyes, according to this gentleman, are increased in number as well as in the degree of weakness, and the greater part of these impared visual organs is due to the fact that the workers of the city labor too hard and the idlers live too fast. Office work, where the toiler is fairly chained to his desk, and his eyes glued to the books or paper, and with bad light in the major ity of cases, is sure to have a bad effect upon the sight. Fully twenty per cent of the office men in the city are afflicted with weak eyes. Add to these un- wholesome or defective conditions, the liability to overwork, to undereat, to eat too fast, and to exercise too little, and the eyes are reduced to their weakest state. Then, little Over-application or constitutional agitation will make them nearly unfit for good service. There is no prospect, says he, that this state of affairs will stop. On the contrary, he thinks that our business and. social habits are all conducive to impaired eyes. When a person feels that his eyes are giving out he should consult an op- tiCian or occulist without delay. Abso- lute rest in most cases is the only cure, and even then it may not wholly re- move the cause of the evil. Glasses, properly fitted will relieve and give aid m all cases. Diet, eating and exercise have more to do with the condition of the eyes than the majority of people suppose. If your habits of living are irregular the eyes will feel the effects of such irregularity. A great many per sons buy glasses and wear them when their eyes are weak more in imagination than in reality. But these are few in number in comparison with the great number who wear glasses because they have to wear them.

A Necessary Evil,

Kiclers are that irritating class of people who succeed only in exciting the antipathy of all with whom they come in contact. But what would the world do without the ldclker2 It is he who regulates by his snarls the inertia of those prone to idleness. It is he who points abuses ofttimes unwittingly pre- petrated by the over-zea1ous. The kicker is the balance wheel of society, says the Grand Rapids CMich.) Herald, almost of civilization. In legislative bodies the influence of the kicker serves to top off the objectional features of measures otherwise good. His oppo- sition leads to discussion and consider ation. This serves it's purpose by trimming to benehcent proportions measures which otherwise would fail of the good intended by overreaching or falling short Ideas which may seem an inspiration to their authors are clipped and pruned until they either fall or, reduced to better proportions, soar gracefully and benefcently for the good of all No one likes the kicker. He commands no respect, or love, or consideration, but after Eal he is the great conservator of good

TIE MURDER OF TOBIN
Great Excitement Over the Kill
 ing at Amenia, N. Y.
SLAYER KELLY ALMOST LyNcHED.

The Evidence at the COrOner's Inquest
 Shows that Tobin Was Trying to Save
 KeIly's Wife From Beating-The Body
 Was Left All Night in Field.
 PoUaHKEEPs1E, N. Y., May 25.-The murder in the town of Amenia, Dutch sss county, Monday night has caused great excitement. The murderer is Pat rick Kelly and the victim was James Tobin, farm hand, 25 years old. Kel- ly lives about mile from the village, where he sells cider.
 Tobin called at his house and Kelly refused to admit him. Tobin started to climb through the window, when Kelly shot him in the head, the bullet passing clear through. Death was instantane- ous.
 Kelly then carried the body to a field close by and left it there until yesterday, when it was found. Kelly was at once suspected, and for Q time it was feared that Tobin's friends would lynch the murderer. Coroner Wilber took charge of the remains and ordered the detention of Kelly.
 The evidence adduced thus far at the inquest shows that the victim thought Kelley was murdering his wife, and was hurrying to her aid when killed. Dis trict Attorney Hufent, of this city, has been notified, and be is only awaiting the action of the coroner's jury before demanding KellY's indictment.
 The resort at which the tragedy oc- cured is an unsavory ono, and has many times been the scene of drunkeness and debauchery.
 Coroner Wilbur, of Pine Plains, said this morning: "Tobin left his employer q place last Sunday morning for, church. Hr a~aH nR at KnI1 1v1n with edward McEnroe. Kelly's wife, who was upstairs, called out that she was locked up and that her husband was striking her. Tobin helped her out of the window, but she went back and was again locked up.
 Before this McEnroe had smashed two windows. Kelly shot at hiln, hit ting him in the shoulder, but the wound was not fatal. Tobin then kicked the door, broke In another window, and shouted that he would get the woman
 out. As he started to get in the window Kelly shot at him, blowing out both of his eyes and killing him instantly. Then he made his wife hold 6 light while he dragged Tobin's body forty yards to a
 brook. Mrs. Kelly swears that he threat ened to kill her if she disobeyed. Will liam Pitcher and wife and Robert Nit ! chell were near and Pitcher was wiChin
 fifty feet before the shooting. He heard the conversation, then the shot. saw
 Tobin's body fall out of the window and
 saw 1t dragged away. He did not SC back to Kelly's.
 ''No one was notified of the occurrence until yesterday. Kelly has been ar rested on a warrant issued by Justice
 Barrett, by direction of Coroner Wilbur, and is in charge of on officer. Three witnesses were examined yesterday Pitcher, his wife and Mrs. Kelly. The inquest will go on to-day. l
 ''Tobin was a single man, with no rel atives in this country, and was about 30 years old. Kelly is about 6O. He wal within but few feet of Tobin when he shot him, and Q few minutes before had ! given them all some cider in the yard. ,

Unknown Heroes.

Thero are heroes in obscure civil life whom the greatest soldier of the age might be proud to call his comrades; men whom all the evils of poverty com tinualIy assail, not only in their own persons, but in the persons of those who look to them for protection and support. To fight misfortune without wincing is a crander achievement than to lead a 1orlorn hope. Thousands who would not be found wanting if called upon to charge a battery. wilt and succumb under the pressure of difficulties en- countered in everyday life. Unfortu- mate tespeculations. unforeseen reversesin legitimate trade, family disappoint- ments and Q thousand sother ills that ought to rouse a mans energies and make him twice a man, drive host of stout fellows, who would not have hinched at Antietam or Gettysburg, to utter despair and to courses which end in their ruin. Their physical courage. being unaccompanied by that higher at- tribute, moral energy, is not worth . straw to them.
 Mere animal courage, says 8 writer in the New York Ledger. is in truth Q commonplace quality. Physical cow ardice is rare; moral poltroonery, dis gracefully general Whoever rushes into drunkenness and debauchery with the object of forgetting the perplexities or calamities which he ought to face, is a moro contemptible coward than he who takes to his heels to escape Q thrashing. It is an old saying and a true one that God helps those who help themselves. In an immense majority of cases the circumstances by which men suffer themselves to be overcome might be controlled and surmounted by vigorous effort. Never give up. Chal- lenge fate. If the worst comes to the worst, it is better to die battling with misfortune, like a man, than to perish ignobly, a victim to the degrading vices in which fools seek a refuge from their responsibilities.

 at Havre.
 PARIS, May 26.-It appears that, by instructions from Washington, the Sec rotary of the British Legation addressed to the French authorities request for the arrest of O'Brien on the arrival of the Marseille from New Orleans.
 After arresting O Brien, and when they had him in safe custody, the Havre po- lice complied with his request to be al- lowed to take a walk about the city guarded by two gendarmes.
 O'Brien looked so meek and submis- sive, and at the same time apparently so desirous of causing as little trouble as possible, that the police thought there would be no danger.
 So the Rendarmes were told to take him aronnd and show him the sights, but not to let him beyond arms length, and to use their weapons promptly should he try to escape. The gendarmes have hardly sufficiently recovered yet to tell exactly how it happened.
 O'Brien could speak hardly any French, but it seems he won their good will by admiring everything he saw, and utter ing exclamations of delight over France and French.
 The women were all handsome, the soldiers all brave, the police were fine, 80 he exclaimed, and he won their hearts completely when he. declared with a shrug of disgust that the Germans were all ''cochons'' (pigs)..
 When O'Brien, therefore, wanted to rest in a cafe, the gendarmes were cor dially willing, and they were also will ing to share the wine for which he paid literally.
 When O'Brien had occasion to retire for few moments they were too polite, if not too comatose, to watch him closely, and they were very much surprised when the admirer of France failed to return. He has not made his appearance again, although his late guardians profess great anxiety to see him. The authorities arc not sat- isfied with the circumstances o, the es- cape, and rigid inquiry has been insti- tuted.
 LONDON, May 25.-The police have positive information that O'Brien started for England on the steamer Fibre, and they believe that he musG have eluded Inspector Roberts and Sergeant Now land, who boarded the Ebre off Graves end to arrest him. The police are searching London. Inspector Frank Forest, who previously arrested O'Brien, has gone back to France, believing that O'Brien has gone or is going to Beau deaux, with the intention of sailing for South America.

SENATOR WoLcoTT, of Colorado, who has reported favorably from the senate committee on civil service and retrench- ment a joint resolution proposing an amendment to the constitution making the presidential term six years, and making a president ineligible for re- election, would doubtless liked to have this amendment go into effect March 4 1898, instead of March 4, 1897, as pro vided in the resolution. But he can console himself with the knowledge that a higher authority than the constitution the people-will prevent Mir Harrison getting a second term.

WHEN the centennial celebration took place in New York in 1889 a wooden arch was erected at Washington square and Fifth avenue. It was afterwards decided to perpetuate the same arch in moro substantial form, and on Decem- Der, 1899, the corner stone was laid. On the 9th of April last the last block of marble was placed in position, and all that remains to complete it are few inscriptions. One of these, which was suggested by George William Curtis, will read: "Let us raise standard to which the wise and honest can repair. The event is in the hands of God"

IS IT GOOD?
SAWYER MEDICINE co. BRIDGEPORT. CONN CONN

Many people have asked this que stion, many are asking it now, because they know they need Spring Tonic and Blood Purifier, and want the best. To any such we can positively answer and truthfully that our DANDELIoN COMPOUND is the best blood purifier, tonic and alternative now known. The reasons are that in com position it is entirely vegetable, it's ingre- dients are all carefully selected, it is made and is in all respects perfectly reliable, safe, and meritorious production.
 We know of many who are now using it with decided benefit, and to their own en- tire satisfaction, but we have yet to hear of one case where it has failed to do all and exactly that which we claim for it. We neither admire nor use sensational ad- vertising, but aim to state the exact truth.

Having found out, he turned over for another nap. When next he awoke he glanced to- ward the steeple and was surprised to find that the budding leaves on the trees between his house and the clock had meanwhile burst forth to such an ex- tent that they shut out the clock so that he was barely able to see the face, let alone the hands.

 MEMPHIS, Tenn, May 25. -Pemiscot county is a scene of desolation. Three fourths of the county is now under water, and assistance is urgently needed at several points in the county between Reel Foot Lake and ParaguId, on the Arkansas side. Three families have also been drowned.
 Large numbers of horses, mules and cattle have been drowned.
 It is said there are 225, 900 acres of wheat destroyed, 300, ,000 acres of corn ruined and nearly 200, 900 acres of cot ton inundated. The waters continue to rise.= The Arkansas bottoms are all un- der water and the number of lives lost and amount of property destroyed can not be estimated, because no boats have gone into the flooded districts.
 The United States weather observers indication of more rain falling over the Missouri and upper Mississippi valleys continues to fill the people of the sub merged region with dread, especially as it is asserted that the Ohio, Cumberland, Tennessee, Wabash, Red and Mississippi rivers will continue to rise. Along the Arkansas, Missouri and Savannah river valleys there is @ prospect that waters will fall, although the gauge Is still high.
 MARIANA, Ark, May 25.-The most appalling reports are received from the lowlands of St. Francis and White River. Ten thousand people are home less and in serious danger of starving. Thirty-three lives in all have been lost along the Arkansas River, to say noth- ing of the negroes and Indians. To-day Miss Sarah Mcleod, 8 school teacher, was drowned at Paragould, Ark, while trying to cross stream.
 NEW ORLEANS, May "A. The break at Shreveport will flood 5000 acres of cul- tivated land. The principal loss caused by the St. James crevasse will be to the Perique tobacco crop at Grande Point, which will be destroyed.
 Guards have been put on the Tensas front in Madison parish day and night, as it is feared levees will be cut The river is bank full, and break is mo- mentarily expected on the west bank between New Orleans and Donaldson vile. The Mississippi valley system is again flooded out, and cannot reach the city on account of Tessier breaks.

 TRENTON, N. J., May 25. - The last bulletin of the Census Department gives some statistics regarding the voting pop ulation of New Jersey, which, in view of the Presidential election, is of more than ordinary interest. The enumera- tion made in 1890 of males 21 years of age and over shows the number to be 413, 53O, as against 3OO, ,635 of 1880, an increase in 10 years of 112, 595, or 37. 55 per cent. The total number of males, including those who had taken out first papers in 1890, eligible at the fall cleo tion, is 360, ,842.
 At the last Presidential election 303, TAI votes were cast, which gave the Democratic ticket 8 plurality of 5, 49. If the census figures are correct, there will be nearly 6O,OOO new voters next fall, whose politics are unknown. This new element adds to the uncertainty as to the result of the fall election, and makes New Jersey an exceedingly doubt full State.
