Why, millions of millions before

To stop at the station Despair
Az, sorrows, and many potion
OF bitter, black water have we,
As we journey from ocean to ocean
From sea unto ultimate sea
To that deep sea OF seas and all silence,
OF passion, concern, and OF care
That vast sea Of Eden.set Islands.

Leap on like thief; try 10 hide you
From angels, all waiting you there.

AS L WAS SAYING.

A party of men in "A hotel Sunday were
telling of the exciting incidents which
they had encountered i'm hotels. The fat
man, who is n member of the Union Clnb,
said that when he was n very green boy
from farm he went TO Boston TO work
and one night some of the boarders--wo-
men-woke him and told him there was a
fire in building near by and asked him
TO 90 and ring in an alarm. He didn't
know anything about alarms and went
about pounding on the doors of the rooms
in the boarding house. The fire was put
out by the department in few minutes,
but it was long time before the boarders
forgave him for disturbing them.
The lean fellow who is always telling
some kind of n story, said that the worst
scare he ever had was in boarding
house i'm a Massachusetts city. The old
lady who kept the place, and her daugh-
ter, slept i'm the room adjoining his, and
one night, or rather one morning about 2
o'clock, while he was half asleep, he heard
n fearful cry, which seemed TO come either
from the corner of his room or from the
yard i'm the rear. He was paralyZed with
fear for few moments. Then he felt
that he ought to do something, and got up
and opened the door into the hall. 1t was
pitch dark, and not "A sound could be
heard. Still there might be a burglar
creeping stealthily about who had just
ended the life of some one OF the inmates.
He shut the door and locked it, and lis
tened: not "a sound. lie felt guilty for not
venturing out. lie looked into the yard.
The moon shone brightly, and all was
still. lie then went to bed and finally
slept. In the morning the daughter said
that her mother had nightmare, and
cried out in her sleep in the night. She
hoped no one was disturbed.
The small man who once lived in
Pennsylvania said that he once stopped at

money in his possession. The proprietor
told him that lac wonld have 70 sleep with

Cleveland. Look straight at me!"
And they look, but their gaze is not
fixed, and their eyes do not close. They
do not think he "has any chance of re-
ceiving the nomination"
But nobody can be hypnotized who
firmly resolves that he will not be; and
so the question is not as to the particu-
larly fine subjects or the obstinates, but
rather as to the mass of people of aver
age nervous systems. How these have
been affected by the great wave of
physical force that has gone out from
Cleveland in his Bragg letter there is as
yet no telling. The method, as remarked
above, is in its essence subtle. Cleve-
land has some of the physical character
istics of good operator. 1t is probably
difficSlt for person of his build to con-
centrate himself spiritually; but the
giving ont of power will prove less ex-
hausting than to medium of fewer
pounds.
An hypnotic campaign is simple in its
management. Cleveland has but TO sit
in his easiest easy chair in his Lakewood
library, eyes closed, feet on cushion,
and will his nomination. If the psychic
method should prove successful it would
mean great revolution in politics. But
it is to be doubted seriously if mesmer-
ism is yet sufficiently developed, or if
the Democracy is made up, to any en-
couraging extent, of sensitives.

DAVID b. HILL is undoubtedly a very
great and pure statesman, but how in
the name of common sense could the
Governor Of Mississippi call him a rep

ocracy: Carlisle is that. Palmer,
Gray, Bayard are that. Even Cleveland
is that. But Hill, the peanut politician,
hasn't substance enough to spread over

,yUDCE WOODS,

The President did well in nominating
Judge Woods of Indiana to be circuit
judge. He is magistrate of large ex-
perience and of the highest character,
and has well earned the promotion.
A full discussion of the objection
brought against him by Senator Voor-
hees and others and by the Democratic
and Mugwump press would require
much space. But brief statement may
be made which will throw much light
on the vital question at issue. The sub
stance of the charge against Judge
Woods is that during the tendency Of
charges of election frauds against Will
lam w. Dudley he gave certain instruc-
tions to the Grand Jury which were cal
culated and intended to shield Dud-
ley from prosecution. Evidently, there
fore, two questions are pertinent TO
the discussion first were the instruc-
tion given TO the grand jury correct in
point of law; and, secondly, were they
given with an honest intent. On the
first question we have the published
statements of Mr.. Justice Harlan of the
Supreme Court made in September 1890,
TO the effect that after carefully exam
lining the authorities he has come to
the conclusion that the instruction given
by Judge Woods was correct
OF course, it may be said that Mr..
Justice Harlan himself may be mistaken
in his view of the law; but we think
that in view of his opinion it cannot be
said that Judge Woods was so clearly
wrong as to raise suspicion Of corrup-
ton.
AS to the question whether Judge
Woods WAS honest in his decision we
have the letters of the distinguished
Democratic ex-senator Joseph f. Nc
Donald to Judge Woods, in which he
says: "I disclaim any intent on my
part to reflect on your character" and
in another place speaks of himself as
"disclaiming again any intention on my
part of imputing to you anything more
than committing grave error of law"
Mr.. Mcdonald had full knowledge of
all the facts in the case, and he certainly
cannot be suspected or undue partiality
toward the judge. His testimony, as it
seems to us, ought to satisfy all candid
inquirers that the whole matter does not
reflect in any unfavorable way on the
honesty and integrity of Judge Woods.

sENsIrIvEs AND NON-sENsITIvEs.

The Brooklyn Eagle says that Hill is
out cunning for the nomination, while
Cleveland is trying to hypnotize it. Hill
has mp to date proved himself very
fairly good shot, while the success of
Clevelands subtler method will depend
on the proportion of sensitives in the
Democratic party. A person who has
once fallen under the hypnotic influence
is more easily susceptible to it a second
time, and so it happens, as students Of
psychological phenomena would natural
ly expect, that the small class of victims
of, so to speak, "a confirmed Cleveland
habit, yield without resistance at the
first puttings forth of the renewed spell.
Thus ex-Secretary of the Navy Will
liam G. Whitney and ex-Postmaster-
General Dickinson and ex-Mayor Will
liam r. Grace and Senator Villas and
Congressman Stevens of Massachusetts,

tizer, of whom he has but to think, and,
at whatever distance, or engaged in
whatever occupation, they will imme-
diately prostrate themselves towards

been so powerfully affected by the letter
to Gen. Bragg that they have gone about

peating, as if in daze, Mr.. Cleveland

They're in the trance sleep; let Tam
many cuff them, punch them, kick

TO see and TO know.

portion of mankind can be brought. cir

vorable, under hypnotic control, yet all
do not respond to the same operator.
