Other News.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 19.-At 8 O'Clock
this morning a reporter who called at
Blaine's residence and was told the ex-
secretary was awake, and his condition
no worse than yesterday afternoon.
The physicians had not yet visited him
this morning. The statement given out
that he is no worse seems to preclude
the possibility that he shows any
marked Improvement. Not since Presi-
dent Garfield lay mortally wounded by
Guiteau,s bullet has there been such
display of public interest in the condi-
tion of sick man as manifests itself in
the case of Blaine. The room in the
historic house on Lafayette square, in
which the sick man lies, is one in which
an attempt was made to assassinate
Secretary Seward.
DIR. Loomis, of New York, arrived this
morning and went at once to the Blaine
mansion. He went into consultation
with Drs. johnson and HYATT He
agreed in every particular with them as.
to the diagnosis and treatment. At the
close of the consultation the doctors
gave out the following: Although
Blaiue's condition during the last week
has given serious anxiety, yet at the
present moment he is decidedly better,
and in no immediate danger. 1t is inn
possible to predict what changes may
occur, but his condition this morning
gives more hopeful feeling as to the
progress of his disease The doctors
will not say, however, that Blaine is
anything like out of danger; still, one
of them said he had very strong hopes
that Blaine might improve SO it would
be possible for him to be removed to
some more congenial climate, presuma-
bly, California, where the change would,
he thought, be beneficial, if it did not
work complete cure. ~

Racing with wolves.

Many thrilling tale has been told by
travellers of race with wolves across
the frozen steppes of Russia. Some
times only the picked bones of the hap
less traveller are found to tell the tale.
In our own country thousands are en-
gagged in life-and-death race
against the wolf consum ption. The
best weapon with which to fight
the foe is Dr.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery. This renown-
ed remedy has cured myriads of
cases when all other medicines and doc
tors had failed. 1t is the greatest blood
purifier and restorer of strength known
in the world. For all forms of scrofulous
affections (and consumption is one of
them), it is unequaled as a remedy.

KANSAS, Cry, Dec. 20.-A fuel famine
is almost certain in Kansas. The set
tiers cannot burn corn because they did
not raise enough last season to feed the
stock. They are remote from any sup
ply of fuel, and storms have made it inn
possible for railroads to haul enough to
supply the demand. There have been
several hard snow storms and two bliz :
yards. The entire state has been COW
cred with snow for three weeks, and
range cattle, which GENERALLY forage
until January. are deprived of grazing
and suffering for food and shelter.
Many head will perish before, spring.

Latest Concerning Blaine.

E
Since the dispatch was placed in type,
which came last night concerning the
condition of Mr.. Blaine, late informa-
tion is to the effect that the family have
reluctantly given up hope, and realize
that death may come at any time
When the physicians state that Mr.,
Blaine is better they simply mean that
he is alive, and that is about the true
statement OF his condition. Cordials of
q. stimulative nature and other liquid
nourishnent are given him at frequent
intervals, and those alone keep him
alive. He lies helpless ON his bed and
cannot change his position without the
aid OF his attendants. Mr.. Blaine may
not live twelve hours. aud he may SUR
viye three or four days, but this is
doubtful.

the pair as they went down the lad

"She's probably been up all night

Back over the red bridge Mary
went, with her hand tightly claspeI
in her fathers. She gave his ha1|

a hot tear drop on her own. There
was a smile on her tired, pale face,
and great content in her heart.

OF houses that clustered near the
bridge, and the woods were before

Mary nodded her head vigorously.

She could not speak.
MARY, you have saved my life;
| you have saved the works. As God
hears me, | will never drink another

vow he made.
Mary cried with Joy on her faith
er's neck. All the terror, loneliness
and labor Of the night were over,
. like bad dream. Best of all, the
burden of ceaseless anxiety, which
had weighed on her and her moth
er, was laid down forever. Never
again would she listen to his step,
! in the fear that it might be uncer-
tain, or walk with tired feet seeking
him through the slums of a city.

20 father! father! Wake up! |
can't stay here all night! If ! call
for help you will be dismissed. I'm
afraid to stay here alone"
The man slept on. II was inn
possible to rouse him. Mary had
feared one weakness, but suddenly
she became conscious of her inner
strength. She knew that she would
stay here until morning and hoped
that by that time her father could
be reused and that they might go
home without suspicion.
The elevator was coming again,
and again she must nerve herself to
roll the heavy car at that awful
brink. Well she had done it once
and she could do it again.
Again and again she had bent
herself to the heavy task. The
hours went by, Mary counted them
by the loads eight to an hour. At
first they went quickly, for she
dreaded the return of the car; but
as the night wore on, the child be-
came conscious of an overpowering
desire to sleep.
The dreadful sense of responsible
ity, the loneliness and unnatural
ness left her. She even began to
forget her desire to save her father.
All emotion was swallowed up by
the sea of sleep, which surged
around her, making her sick and
giddy.
At last she became conscious that
she must do something. She strug-
gled to the next door of the warm
house, which was inclosed OH three
sides, the fourth side opening on the
chimney. She closed it behind her
in order that her father might not
feel the cruel cold, and sat OH the
icy platform and looked down, down
on the shapeless works beneath her

A shout from below, rattle Of
chains, and again came the elevator
creeping up the chimney like some
gigantic beetle. Mary went tc
work with new enthusiasm. Be-
tween trips, she sat outside and suf
fered with the cold. But such suf
fering was positive joy, after the
deadly numbness she had fought
within.
