DOrOthy'S Prayer.

Little Dorothy was tired, Oh, 50 tired,

every night. She was SO tired that her
dear little head was heavy, and the

had said her pray TASK God to bless

Her mother told her she must COM

the heavy head nodded from side to

a PathetIC Incident.

The late II. L. GUIDE, superintendent
of the city railroad, was one of the
most genial and iarge-hearted mon in
San Francisco. One day he contracted
severe cold, which turned into quick
consumption. He consulted his physi-
clan, who told him that his complaint
was OF very little Importance, and
would pass away in day or two with a
little care or rest, but realized that he
was already beyond medical aid and
that change in climate might do him
some good. He was accordingly or
dered to Auburn, which is the resort OF
conservatives from all over California
The doctor was surprised a day or two
alter to see him back again and inquired
what was the matter. ''Well," he said
there was so much coughing around
me that | almost thought | had consump.
ton, and came back, fearing that
might possibly contract it," The fol
lowing day the poor fellow was dead.

Defeated by Facts.

There are campaign documents and
campaign documents. Some Of them
are so evidently the outcome of parts
anship that they have no influence up
on the minds Of thoughtful men. But
the campaign documents upon which
Republicans largely rely to re-elect
President Harrison are not of this sort.
They are made up Of facts and figures,
whose significance can be understood
by every voter of average intelligence.
These facts and figures prove conclusive
ly that the Harrison administration has
done well by the country, that it has
promoted the common prosperity, that
its tariff policy has led to the successful
establishment of many new industries,
has developed those before existing,
and has put money in the pockets of the
Worklngmen.
In our own state such facts, which are
of the first importance to the great
mass of those who will WELD the ballot
IN November, rest on the reports made
In conformity to law by Democratic
officials. The report of the commits
sioner of the bureau of labor statistics,
the report of the uperintendenJ of the
bank department, the report Of the
State Board Of Equalization, are all to
the same effect. They constitute an ir-
the management of national affairs,
since each in its own way demonstrates
that capital and labor, employer and
employee, have no reason to wish for
change which would break down the
existing system Of protection.
Mr.. Cleveland will be defeated by the
official figures, and largely Democratic
figures at that. If he could have put a
gag in the mouth of Peck, moved the
previous question on Preston and abol-
ished the State Board Of Equalization he
might not thus early in the canvass have
been driven to the extremity Of person
ally comforting with Croker, Murphy
and Sheehan His expedition from
Gray Gables to New York and his Guilt

SO numerically will generally be regard

Illness of Mrs. arrISOn.

Loon LAKE HOUSE, n. Y, Sept. 49,
President Harrison makes no effort to
conceal his anxiety over the condition
of Mrs. Harrison, and has been at her
bedside the entire day. The whole fam
lily are doing their utmost to cheer the
patient up, and have succeeded so well
that she is not fully aware of the ex-
IRENE gravity of her case. DR.. Dough-
erty. the New York specialist, ar
rived tonight on a special train. He
saw Mrs. Harrison several times while
she was in Washington, and an exam
ination tomorrow will reveal the exact
changes that have occurred since then.
The family prefer to say nothing in re-
gard to Mrs. Harrison's symptoms I'M
til this medical examination shall have
been made and after consultation of
doctors tomorrow. When DR.. Dough-
ertv arrived Mrs. Harrison was asleep
and it was deemed best not to wake
her. After the doctors see her to-mor-
row President Harrison can decide
whether he will have to abandon his
purpose of being present at the Grand
Army encampment at Washington next
week

Another International Rumpus

LONDON, Sept. 12.-The latest advices
received here from Genoa regarding the
murder of Frank Reilly, the seaman
from the United States squadron, who
was killed on the night Of September s
IN lodging-house in Genoa, show that
national animus was the cause of
the crime. The proprietor of
the lodging-house. when the Am
erican seamen applied to him for
lodgings. used most abusive Ian
guage to them, simply because they
were Americans. The seamen were
advised that it was unsafe for them to
remain in the place, and they started
Tor the door when the proprietor, with
knife in each hand, sprang toward
Reilly and stuck both the weapons in
his back. Reilly staggered to the street,
where he fell and died in few min
utes. The murder was entirely unpro-
voked, aud Reilly was killed for no 9TH
er reason than that he was an Ameri-
can. In consequence of the killing of
Reilly the sailors of the United States
vessels there are not allowed to go on
shore while they remain at Genoa.

WHAT INVESTIGATION TAUGHT HIM.
Commenting upon this table, the RI

port says in conclusion:
The figures included in the above table
seem to be, and they are, IN strict harmony
with the facts established by table No. /.
or the siXty-eight Industries included, 70
per cent. of them show an increased aver
age yearly earning in the year of 1891,
while the total average increase of yearly
earnings Of the 285 900 employees was
So. l. The average increase of yearly
earnings Oh the employees IN the fifty-One
trades showing an increase was S43. 81 in
1891, as compared with 1890.
In addition to the investigation of this
special subject, the bureau has continued
its annual investigation Of all labor dis
turbanceS occurring in the state during
the last year. The total number of strikes
reported for the year 1891 was 4,519 as
against 6,258 occurring in the year 1890, a
decrease of l,74G. Of the total number
(4,5l9) $50, or 80 per cent. Of them, were
IN the building trades, a fact that seems to
follow IN natural sequence the results OBJ

Effect Of the Tariff on Labor and
Wages
1t has been my experience, as, doubt

Tie Wearing of Gloves,

FIRING A REVOLVER.
TO Attain Rapidity ana Accuracy Do Not
Aim Along the Sights.

Aim Along the Sights.
Captain j. Forman, Thirteenth In
%fantry, says in the st. Louis Globe
Democrat; at is o peculiar fact thai
very few men, even accomplished shots,
know how u revolver eaght to be
handled. Nearly all are taught to aim
a revolver as il it We're q rite; that is,
by bringing the object aimed at and the
fore and hind sights into line. This is
all well enough for shooting gallery
practice, but should never be followed
in the field. In training troops to use
the revolver they rctaught, in aiming,
never 10 look at the weapon at all, but
to keep their eyes on the object to be
struck. In quick firing, and especially
in shooting from horseback, much bet
ter results are obtainable in this way.
A man throwing q stone does not look
at his hand; neither does a billiard
player sight along his cue. The same
rules apply to the use of short weapons.
lhave Ger men trained to shoot OK
cellently at q mark when they could
not see their pistol sights at all. Pieces
of pastoboard were fastened just in
front Of the cylinders, which elfcctually
prevented the men from. using their
foresights, and greatly increased the
rapidly as well as the accuracy, OF
their fire. Nearly any one can sight
q pistol correctly, the ~inaccuracy OF
the aim being due to trembling of the
hands before the trigger is pressed.
by hiding the sight the temptation to
hold too long is removed, and the first
aim, generally the most accurate, is
preserved:
